Olrox = Quetzalcoatl
In honour of the upcoming season I decided to finally make the post about the reasons why I believe Olrox either has Quetzalcoatl's powers (like Erzsebet has Sekhmet's) or possibly even is Quetzalcoatl. Some points might just be some neat thing I noticed about him. So there
Red gem
Both Olrox and Erzsebet have gems embedded in their bodies. Admittedly, it's a weak argument, since it's in Olrox's serpent form and in Erzsebet's human form, while as Sekhmet it's more of just a red dot rather than a gem. But it still stood out to me so I chose to include it anyway
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Blunt fingernails
I don't think this has a particular connection to godhood but it is interesting that only Olrox, Erzsebet and Alucard don't have sharpened nails
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Walking in sunlight
I know it's not direct sunlight, and that seems to be the thing doing the trick to the vampires, but he seems particularly uncaring of it. He doesn't have an umbrella on hand like Drolta does in case he needs it
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
He's absolutely unimpressed with Erzsebet's eclipse orb in the gardens
I'm pretty sure everyone has solar eclipses in the back of their mind when thinking abour Aztecs so perhaps this is a nod to that. Perhaps he's used to this sort of thing and doesn't see anything special in it while all of her followers immediately bow. Perhaps he can make one himself
Tumblr media
He's impervious to magic, like Erzsebet
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The night creature choosing not to fight Olrox
All he does is give it a side eye and it immediately cowers and leaves
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
He wants freedom
Personally, I like to think he is Quetzalcoatl who somehow was put in a human body or changed into a human and then turned into a vampire, thus getting trapped
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In his fight with Julia, we see his blood dripping just before he lands in it, moments before she attempts to burn him, which leads to his transformation. Perhaps his blood is the catalyst that unleashes his godhood for a brief while
The demons and gods talk
When talking with Mizrak after their tryst, he seems dead set on finding out which demon the order gave their souls to. He makes it pretty clear he's thinking about bargaining for or demanding Mizrak's soul from it
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
and on top of that, the whole "gods are still around" thing, said in a pretty self-assured tone

Grian’s world tour really gave me an appreciation for the variety of inspiration hermits are basing their builds off this season
Gem’s base is inspired by Dredge, a cutesy psychological horror game
Joel’s base was inspired by Japanese architecture (with a cyberpunk twist)
Pearl was inspired by the solarpunk movement
Keralis was inspired by Thailand and the abandoned military bases deep in their jungles
Scar was inspired by Redwood National Park in California
Xisuma’s base is inspired by ancient Aztec architecture
And so much more!!!

Expanding on being Olrox's best friend.
My genuine belief is this friendship would form on mutual respect. It's clear Olrox is someone who doesn't take his true loyalties lightly. And he is beyond tired of people who are power hungry or buy into group mentalities.
I believe you would have met Olrox during a time of hardship for yourself. You being a humble individual who merely wanted to exist. Though, of course, the world wouldn't make such a thing so simple.
Olrox has basically spent his entire life forming alliances to get by. He found you trapped as an abstract entity being used by vampires. He found it distasteful but didn't do a thing at first.
Discovering you had a consciousness was a point of intrigue for him. You could think and feel. Hearing you speak wasn't surprising but amused him nonetheless.
You two held conversations now and again. It became obvious to you that Olrox merely sought out for himself and couldn't care less about the ambitions of the vampires that held you. You decided quite quickly you liked him.
He quipped about your abusers and boasted about his lover. Admittedly, it rubbed you the wrong way he sat by as you were made into a toy. But this man was the closest thing to what it was like to be treated like a person, so you clung to your brief interactions.
Plus, he was funny. At least you were getting something out of this. Olrox was keeping you sane.
You were within an inch of your mental capacity each day. You were in pain and long past tolerant of others.
You were aware of what happened to Olrox's lover. You have no idea why he told you. He did it so matter of factly.
The way he always smirked when talking to you was replaced with a bitter scowl. His demeanor was a far cry from how playful and snarky he was before.
Instinctively, you offered your wish for his peace with the matter. You even complimented his lover. You saw him briefly. You were....more perceptive than average, let's put it that way.
Olrox's expression was unreadable but it was clear he absorbed your words.
Olrox had been put in charge of commanding you at some point. You spent more time together. Your being was still confined but your consciousness could stretch for eons.
You didn't mind Olrox commanding you. He was far kinder and just did what was necessary. Perhaps he wasn't exactly overly familiar. But he treated you as something akin to a lieutenant. Rather than a dog.
You formed a habit of calling him "master".
He never said anything. But somehow you could tell it bothered him. You thought it was because he wasn't fond enough of you to even consider you a servant. Still. You were attached and refused to stop.
One day you were pushed too far by the vampires that kept you. You were in agony.
After they left, you begged Olrox to set you free. You called him master like you always did. His green eyes pierced into you. You must've looked absolutely pathetic. Even without a face or body.
Something about the way he stood there enraged you. And the next time the other vampires came to make use of you, you did away with them all. Many more came to attack but your blind rage stopped them.
Olrox's smile as he watched you was irritating.
As much as you liked the guy, you were beyond tired of being viewed as a pass time. You aimed for him. And funnily enough, you did your fair share of damage.
Olrox got close enough to your prison. Imagine your surprise when he released you.
"You almost killed me." The laugh in his voice was baffling.
You had a better chance of doing that now that you were free. You didn't find it worth being impressed over. At least, not from his perspective.
You blinked as he simply turned to walk away.
Odd as it was, you instinctively thanked your master. Your previous rage was dwarfed by your confusion at Olrox's contradictory actions. All you could muster in your daze was gratitude.
Olrox replied with saying he had no idea who you were referring to.
You blinked.
"You're smart enough to slaughter a group of fools beholden to their delusions of grandeur. And another who stood by even as your screams carried over the ocean." Olrox smirks. "I think you're long past that."
You blinked. Smart, he says.
Olrox shrugged at your confusion. "You choose now of all nights to end them. Or us. I suppose I'm included in that. You've been watching the moon, haven't you? Being free now...Why, I don't think the night has ever been so beautiful. Wouldn't you agree?"
You were baffled at what he was implying. You insisted on calling him master.
He tutted your fixation on that.
"That's what no one ever told you. You don't need masters."
You gaped.
He smiled. "You figured that out all on your own. Everyone here is dead. You made an attempt on my life for my inaction. In what world does someone like that need anyone?"
You went quiet. Olrox was going to leave. You watched him go.
"You may follow me. If you wish." Olrox said without turning or stopping.
Your breath hitched at him reading your desires so easily.
"On one condition."
You bristled. Of course no one ever offered company without a catch-
"Never call me 'master' again." Olrox frowned pointedly at you.
You gaped. An odd request. But...You found yourself silently agreeing, following quickly.
Olrox smiles. A lot softer than you were used to. "I would like to see an actual form in front of me."
You blinked. Was that his way of...encouraging you?
You flushed, solidifying yourself the moment you were outside.
Olrox hummed. "Imagine hiding something this captivating. You're foolish about the strangest things."
You felt you should have been offended. But tears found their way to you. As shrewd as he put it, he undoubtedly called you beautiful.
You two knew each other for centuries and now you were attached to the hip in the open world. You were there for the murder of Julia. Olrox thanked you greatly for assisting in tracking her down but told you to stay out of the fight. You kept to the shadows and proudly watched your beloved friend triumph.
Richter was hardly conscious of everything around him. He froze at Olrox kneeling before him. Your presence felt more like a dream rather than what he was actually seeing. He wasn't sure he had actually seen another vampire there. It was intentional on your part, you hadn't wanted to give Olrox trouble and used your abilities the moment you spotted Julia. Your eyes have haunted Richter's nightmares for years. Though he is unable to tell if it was Olrox's or not. He doesn't remember you.
Mentioned this before, but Olrox allows you to hang onto him.
It's incredibly common place for you to rush to Olrox and put your hands on his chest and lean on him.
He responds with a hand on the small of your back. He'll fully embrace you if you've been separated during battle.
He will full on guard you with his body if it is needed. Though, it's rare. You are a strong vampire.
Full disclosure if he despises someone that flirts with you. Massive protective brother energy.
"Cunts need washings before they speak."
"Olrox!"
Olrox and you use endearments on one another. "Love" and "darling" are the most prominent. But pick your poison of birds, flowers or gems you compare each other to.
You were not amused by Olrox targeting Mizrak. Out of all the men he chose to "move on" with, a hypocritical human of the cloth wasn't in your pickings of the list. You saw Olrox running into his bad habits with him. It worried you.
You had a distaste for Mizrak from the start. It was sealed when he barked at Olrox.
You hissed. "Small mutts shouldn't bark so loud."
Olrox couldn't find it in himself to listen at first. It had been a while, but you knew he was still grieving.
You stayed by his side to offer support but you were waiting for him to throw the whole man out.
You whimpered and touched Olrox's forehead after what Drolta did to him.
"Olrox, love, your pretty little head is hidden."
You were enraged but simply allowed Olrox to take a breath and hold your hand while offering a soft kiss.
It's actually funny how much you have a "you can do better" attitude regarding Mizrak.
To a point Olrox has tickled you with a feather when you go on too long.
Thankfully, your intervention wore Olrox down and he was thinking far more clearly.
Either you healed Mizrak or let him die peacefully.
Regardless, he was weighing down your best friend over your dead blood sucking body. Watching Olrox choose immortality for someone a second time wasn't something you were going to allow.
I feel like being Olrox's best friend would be so nice. Olrox having all that love and trust in you to keep you close and being able to vulnerable. Olrox is the type of friend that you would be attached to the hip with at all times and would be so gentle and caring. Especially considering it's clear Olrox's orbit is scarce due to his past and how he feels about people in general. So his best friend is someone he'd be incredibly protective of and would cherish.
Olrox and his best friend would have tons of witty banter that both pokes fun at the other while also remaining wholesome and affectionate. Though the ones directed at others is ruthless and cutting. Olrox is for sure that friend you sit by and judge others with. You two have this telepathic connection (either literal or metaphorical) where you don't even need to look at each other and you just- react the same way to situations and people's stupidity, both facial expressions and body language. You two are menaces when it comes to being in other's presence. Regardless if it's holding a conversation or being in combat.
Olrox has gently tutted you to behave yourself on rare occasions but you can tell by his grin that he was absolutely encouraging your mischief. He even whispers his own quip in your ear every now and then, adoring when you giggle in response. You two are the biggest gossip buddies in private, making each other howl with laughter discussing what you think about recent events or the people you've ran into. Olrox would be helping you either bathe, do your hair, or simply sharing the bed with you all the while.
Olrox's voice is noticeably softer and thinner with you. Olrox keeps you close by having a gentle hand on your shoulder, waist, or having you cling to his arm. Olrox will often pull you to him and kiss your temple. Or on the side of your cheek. Either as a simple gesture of affection or giving you a swift goodbye in the rare times you two have to separate. Olrox will also hold you to his chest if you're hurting. Olrox seems harsh but for you he actively practices the utmost tenderness when comforting you.
Goodness forbid someone else caused your distress. Olrox will be absolutely feral if anyone dares cause you harm. You are his dear friend and he cherishes your spot in his life. He'll be damned if he lets someone disrupt that, even in the smallest ways.

Red
by Ted Hughes
Red was your colour. If not red, then white. But red Was what you wrapped around you. Blood-red. Was it blood? Was it red-ochre, for warming the dead? Haematite to make immortal The precious heirloom bones, the family bones.
When you had your way finally Our room was red. A judgement chamber. Shut casket for gems. The carpet of blood Patterned with darkenings, congealments. The curtains -- ruby corduroy blood, Sheer blood-falls from ceiling to floor. The cushions the same. The same Raw carmine along the window-seat. A throbbing cell. Aztec altar -- temple.
Only the bookshelves escaped into whiteness.
And outside the window Poppies thin and wrinkle-frail As the skin on blood, Salvias, that your father named you after, Like blood lobbing from a gash, And roses, the heart's last gouts, Catastrophic, arterial, doomed.
Your velvet long full skirt, a swathe of blood, A lavish burgundy. Your lips a dipped, deep crimson.
You revelled in red. I felt it raw -- like the crisp gauze edges Of a stiffening wound. I could touch The open vein in it, the crusted gleam.
Everything you painted you painted white Then splashed it with roses, defeated it, Leaned over it, dripping roses, Weeping roses, and more roses, Then sometimes, among them, a little blue bird.
Blue was better for you. Blue was wings. Kingfisher blue silks from San Francisco Folded your pregnancy In crucible caresses. Blue was your kindly spirit -- not a ghoul But electrified, a guardian, thoughtful.
In the pit of red You hid from the bone-clinic whiteness.
But the jewel you lost was blue.

I love this idea alot, it espically ties into season 10 vibes.
Or if the lighthouse was owned by Gem or an associate and oh no the kerosene lamp broke, on the one foggy night our competor was out fishing.
I guess my ask would how Gem would "summon" Pearl. Like dose Pearl following this boat or just waits for screams or bloody murder, or dose Gem have like a Aztec death whistle or what?
Anyways before I ramble to much I'll leave with this picture of Grian's ghost, staring souless dead eyes.
Tumblr media
asdhaskf thank you! Welcome to the murderer and fucked up mermaid train!
Please never be afraid of rambling at me, I LOVE talking.
You are right on the nose with the lighthouse. Gem is kind of an untouchable sort of figure, Scott and Impulse are like her PR team. They engage with people in positions that would have reason to suspect something is wrong. This whole murder thing is quite a production.
Post-Grian’s murder, Jimmy (who is one of the lighthouse keepers) is a wreck because he has a full view of the bay. He really should have seen something was off with Grian that night. Thank goodness Scott is so understanding. He’s right. Life is hard here and some things are just really out of his control.
To answer your ask: Pearl pretty much just follows Gem’s boat around at a distance near 24/7 after Gem started feeding her. She’s memorized the sound and rhythm of the motor.
The townsfolk have even seen her napping on the dock or in the water next to the boat in the early morning/late afternoon. Everyone is pretty much aware that there are mermaids in the bay and others do try to help Pearl from time to time but no one gets as close as Gem does.
Mermaids, like seals, sense movement in the water through wakes but lack the highly developed sense of underwater hearing that seals have due to being a rather recent evolution in the Hominid family tree (this necessitates team-hunting in their feeding strategies because they aren’t specialized enough to work it solo under most circumstances).
To this effect, Pearl just kinda keeps a passive tab on the wake of Gem’s ship and when Gem needs her she splashes at the water a lot to indicate she’s got dinner. Gem does use a whistle to “call” her, but it’s more an intimidation/theatric tactic than an actual effective way to get Pearl’s attention.
Also! Grian’s ghost is most definitely haunting Gem but Gem doesn’t have enough of a guilty conscience to care much.

I want to talk about the Vault Gods and my design process
Each idol was drawn as though they were statues or altar peices, something of worship not necessarily what the gods look like but what the villagers would interpret their looks to be.
First I wanted to ensure that they looked like villagers, or have a villager template. The initial drafts has them with their arms together in a villager pose.
Each design had multiple aspects I gave them, a material, a gem, a minecraft mob, and an item
Idona The Malevolent, kill and sacrifice the marked to appease this god
Tumblr media
The idol is designed after cinnabar a toxic red material with high levels of mercury.
Idonas item is the vault hunters altar with reference and designs inspired by Mayan and Aztec sacrificial alters.
They are designed to look like a bat and a Wolf with lots of sharp angles and shapes, with cultish and sacrifical undertones
The eyes are rubies, a gemstone that symbolises life force. They are cut with a 5 point star facet and bezel with means the eyes are also pentacles, there is also a hidden sacrificial knife in the eyes.
They say experience makes you wiser, but is it wise to give it up for treasure? Sacrifice your experience and knowledge to Tenos the Omniscient to be granted treasure beyond your wildest dreams.
Tumblr media
Tenos is made of silver or iron, a pure metal that is reflective
Tenos has the enchanting table book, a potion of enchanting and xp balls
They are designed with a lot of softer rounder shapes compared to its counterparts and is based on a polar bear with angelic bird wings to give it a wise and pure vibe.
The eyes are sapphires, with a gemstone meaning of focus and inner vision. Tenos also is the one one to wear a gemstone accessory to give the allusion to a third eye.
Velara The Benevolent, sacrifice your health, sacrifice yourself to appease Velara, only then will you gain the riches
Tumblr media
The idol is designed to look like oxidised copper. I wanted Valara to look like an old and ancient god from a forgotten religion, the kind where you find a forgotten statue in a forest overgrown with new life.
The like all the idols, it focuses on a theme relating to what you use to open the altars, so Valaras design is health or in this case life.
Velara has the fern and tall grass as its minecraft item.
Initially designed to be more rabbit like the design ended up becoming vague in animal and more bug like.
The eyes on Valara are emeralds that symbolise rebirth and growth.
Wendarr The Timekeeper, you only have limited time, will you sacrifice some of it to this god for riches?
Tumblr media
Wendarr is a brass idol, a very common metal for clocks and timepieces to be made from.
Wendarr is designed to look the most like a villager with wings similar to that of DaVincis flying machine.
Unlike the other gods, Wendarr did not receive a minecraft item as I felt the minecraft clock did not fit the ancient and old aesthetic. Instead, they received an hourglass and an alluded clock face in the background, and some rococo inspired designs in the foreground.
The eyes are made of topaz, which apparently stands for manifesting clarity and astrology?
Anyway that's my thought process and some small details about each God and my designs.

Sometime ago I saw a tweet (Spanish) on X that remarked on Olrox’s earring that it could be jade and jade was usually worn by kings and nobles. While it’s a fascinating idea, I myself lean more toward the idea that the gem could be emerald.
Tumblr media
So I dug around a bit and learned that emerald was highly valued and considered divine by the Aztecs. Then I also came across this:

Another detail pointing toward Olrox’s connection with Quetzalcoatl! Any thoughts?

Shoving these down your throats
Mumbo: Did you bring Lizzie? Cleo, gesturing to Etho: No, but I brought the next best thing. Mumbo: Etho? The next best thing would be Gem. Etho: I would be offended, but Gem is freakishly strong.
artyn: You're just jealous. All my friends tell me I remind them of Gem. The Squad: *screaming* Skizz: They look like Gem? Are you out of your fucking MIND? Scar: Gem, sweetie, I am SO sorry. I am SO SORRY that an ugly-ass bitch like this would even say that. Oh my god. Skizz: Gem? Gem? Gem? You know who you fucking look like? You fucking look like BigB!
Tango: Hey, how did my phone break? Lizzie: You were drunk yesterday. Tango: And? Skizz: You threw it. Tango: Why? Scott: You turned on airplane mode and kept screaming “FLY DAMN YOU!” Tango: And why didn’t you stop me?! Ren: We were busy laughing our asses off.
Bdubs: Hey, can we stay in your dorm tonight? Mumbo: Why? Bdubs: Impulse fiddled with an ouija board and cursed ours. BigB: Jimmy doesn't know how to banish spirits, so they just throw salt at them and yell "DOES THIS LOOK LIKE A HOTEL TO YOU?!"
Grian: What's the scariest horror movie you've ever watched? Pearl: IT. Scott: Annabelle. Jimmy: Paranormal Activity. Joel: High School Musical. All throughout high school I was scared that everyone was gonna randomly get up and start singing and dancing, and I would be the only one who doesn't know the words.
Etho: You know what? Etho: When I join this friend group I thought you guys would be dealing with my bullshit. *Scott, Skizz and Grian continue screaming about mold water* Etho:Not the other way around. Impulse: I dunno, sounds like you need to drink the mold water.
Impulse: How do I ask someone out? Jimmy: Roses are red, violets are blue, guess what, my bed has room for two. Impulse: No! BigB: Twinkle twinkle little star, we can do it in a car. Impulse: Stop! Joel: Row, row, row your boat gently down the stream, merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily I can make you scream. Impulse: I feel like the last one is verging dangerously into serial killer territory.
Martyn: When I see really attractive people like Scar, I just laugh because I know if we lived in the Aztec culture, they'd be sacrificed for their beauty. Jimmy: I mean, that's one way to cope with not being attractive. Impulse: Works for me.
Tango: What's the most efficient way to burn calories? Skizz: Exercise more! Scott: Set yourself on fire. Jimmy: There are two kinds of people.
Bdubs, writing in a letter: "I'm going to kick.. your... ass." Bdubs: THERE. Now send it. Joel: Dude, your handwriting's terrible, are you sure you want to- Bdubs: JUST DO IT! later Etho: So what does it say? Lizzie, reading the letter: They say they're going to "lick my...." Etho: Lizzie: Etho: Gross-
Ren: Why did you kidnap Etho!?!?! Pearl: Ah- um- well- the reason for that is, uhh... Joel: Sometimes, we must work together towards a common goal. Ren: NOT TO KIDNAP PEOPLE!
Tango: Subs are so fun to play with. All you have to do is hint at what you might do, back them into a corner with a look, or grab their wrist in a certain way and they're a wide-eyed mess. Scar: What the fuck kind of Subway are you going to? Ren: Substitute teachers deal with so much shit. Skizz: Guys.
Gem: It’s Christmas! Are you all in a Christmas mood?! Jimmy: Merry crisis. Ren: Jingle bells, jingle bells, single all the way. Scott: Hoe hoe hoe. Gem: Guys, please.
Mumbo: How would you guys deal with a toxic friend? Gem: Tell them how you really feel. Pearl: Slowly distance yourself from them. Lizzie: Engage in a 1v1 sword battle and if they lose they have to stop being toxic or pay the price. Mumbo, being handed a sword: …well heck.
Bdubs, filling out legal paperwork: Were you guys born AMAB or AFAB? Tango: Bold of you to assume I was born at all. Cleo: I personally was created in a lab. Jimmy: I just straight up spawned lol.
Gem: Is the plural of milf/dilf milfs/dilfs or milves/dilves? Impulse: Milfs. Grian: Milf/dilf is an acronym, you can't change the spelling to milves/dilves. Gem: Wait, they're acronyms? What do they stand for??? Tango: Mom in late forties, dad in late fourties. Tango: I learned that from the movie called M.I.L.F that I saw the trailer of in theaters probably 5 to 7 years ago. Grian: Mom/dad I'd Love to Fuck. Gem: WAIT, WHAT THE FUCK— Gem: I NEVER REALIZED IT WAS ACTUALLY HORNY! Tango: Oh, is it not mom in late fouries? Impulse: What? No! It isn't! Tango: THE MOVIE TRAILER LIED TO ME! Grian: Tango... Tango: THIS IS WHY I DIDN'T THINK CALLING PEOPLE MILFS WAS ALL THAT BAD BECAUSE IT STOOD FOR SOMETHING HARMLESS IT JUST HAD A SLIGHTLY SEXUAL CONNOTATION! Grian: I am entirely unsurprised that this is coming from you. Tango: GEM, DOES IT MAKE SENSE WHY I CALLED THE DIARY OF A WIMPY KID MOM A MILF NOW BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS LITERALLY JUST A DESCRIPTOR WITH FUNNY CONNOTATION! Gem: The word milf has been ruined for me. Impulse: THAT'S ITS DEFINITION, IT CAN'T BE RUINED THAT'S WHAT IT MEANS! Grian: Y'all are dumbasses.
Martyn: Why are you smiling? Jimmy: What? I can’t just be happy? Cleo: Ren tripped and fell in the parking lot.
Tango: A stake to the heart won't kill a vampire if their tits are big enough. Ren: Yeah, you just catch it. Impulse: Nah nah nah, deflects it. Stake? Just bounces right off. Done. Back to doing hot girl shit. Scar: Then I just use a spear instead. Tango: You are trying so hard to kill a vampire with big bazongas, and for what? Why would you do that to the ecosystem?
Scott: I have a question. BigB: Shoot. Scott: Is the S or C in scent silent? Martyn: Fuck you, I’m going to be thinking about this all day. BigB: Okay well, cent is pronounced the same way as scent so I’m gonna say the S is silent. Scott: Okay, but sent is also spelled the same way. Martyn: Google says that the C was added in the late seventeenth century, so I guess the S is silent. Lizzie: Plot twist, both the S and the C are silent and the E actually makes the sss sound. Martyn: Lizzie is not allowed to talk anymore.
Skizz: I didn’t know that air fryers are a real thing. Used to think that they were made up by the internet as a funny joke and that their purpose was to “fry air”. Impulse: WAIT, BUT IT FRIES THE AIR TO FRY THE FOOD?? Skizz: I DIDN’T KNOW IT WAS A KITCHEN APPLIANCE, MY FIRST ASSUMPTION WAS SOMETHING AKIN TO AN AIR CONDITIONER! Scott: IT’S NOT LIKE AN AIR CONDITIONER???? Scar: You guys clearly don’t own an air fryer.
*The gang when they drop food on the floor* Etho: Aw man. *Throws it away* Ren: Five second rule! Grian: Foolish germs, thinking they can stop me!? *Eats it off the floor* Tango: *Sobs on the floor*
Tango: I’m gonna die alone. Bdubs: Tango, you’re not gonna die alone. Tango: Jimmy, was my safety net, okay? They got married and now I have to get a snake. Etho: Uh-huh. Why is that? Tango: If I’m gonna be an old lonely person, I’m gonna need a thing, you know? A hook. Like that guy in the subway who eats his own face. Tango: So I figured I’ll be “Crazy Man With A Snake”, you know? Crazy snake man. Tango: Then I’ll get more snakes, call them my babies. Kids won’t walk past my place, they will run! RUN AWAY FROM CRAZY SNAKE MAN!

Notes about Link’s Frostbite Armour!
Hi, I’m Robin, I’ve done this before- see the Lynette outfit analysis. This time I made the Frostbite outfit, and I’ve noticed a few things.
-the “dress” closely resembles a Vietnamese ao dai, and so do the pants. The rest of the outfit is more aztec-inspired, information that came from a dude who came up to me during the convention. Thank you to that dude
-that crown of horns that are meant to resemble Naydras? I had trouble fixing them onto me, and apparently Link did too. There are three straps on top of his head to keep the horns from dropping into his eyes while moving.
-the centerpiece on his chest is probably an imitation of Naydras face. Every Zonai outfit has one, with the exception of Zelda and I think Sonia? There’s a face on it- this one looks vaguely owlish, and the nose has a mustache. This may be our only image of pre-Dragon Naydra. Just speculation, though.
-the markings on the bottom of Links robe, from its start to the little bone-things near the bottom, are identical on every Zonai object, including Zelda’s and Sonia’s. The motif can also be found in shrines, and once you know it, you’ll see it EVERYWHERE.
-you may not have noticed, but Zonai really like their eyes. Link has five eyes on his headpiece, and on the back of his dress, there’s a line of beads leading to an eye that looks almost exactly like the Sheikah eye. Oh, and Zonai eyes have teeth at the bottom.
-his wrap is not pleated. Its tassels
-the iconic backless diamonds, they need to be ironed in place to stay in their shape.
- his belt goes under the dress. It goes around his hip and connects to both the charges and the quiver. The one around his chest connects to his sheathe.
-there are tiny little teeth on his armbands
-the six teardrops on his face are not makeup, like Sonia and Zelda. They’re little gems. He’s a diva
-there are seven horns total, if I counted right
Concluding notes, the costume is light and breathable and you don’t have to worry about favbric getting in your way. Easy to move around, the most difficult thing to keep in place is the horns. I imagine it would do fine for movement in totk battles, and shit for warmth, which tracks.
Here’s my costume!

Okay so that Colosseum King title is WAY funnier/has a lot of meta when you remember that Jaden is often depicted as representing the Greco-Roman pantheon, like how Yugi is the Egyptian pantheon and Yusei is the Nazca/Incan (but people keep saying Aztec despite his first storyline being tied to the Nazca lines in Peru).
Right!!
Like especially Jesse’s deck. The gems beast represent gems Julius Caesar collected around the world but lost at sea. I think his field spell is even based on the colosseum.
A lot of characters in Gx have some tie into Greek/Roman culture.
I really love the real world cultural tie ins form early yugioh
Also it’s funny to me that the first season is Egyptian I picture that when they were making the second season they were like, “everyone liked the ancient Egyptian stuff. You know who else liked ancient Egyptian stuff? The Greeks.”
But no I’m movie this King of the Colosseum stuff. It’s so funny to me.

what would be your take on a Quetzalcoatlite? an aztec themed gem would probably look sick
Tumblr media
Alternatively, theming it after the Resplendent Quetzal bird. Unsure of the design and job but I love it so far.
This place is sponsored by birds. Treat birds with care and respect. From endangered birbs to "plague" pigeons. Thank you.

Both of new characters are going to be on Captain Snep X Aztec Samurai webcomic series.
Gem Striker is inspired by Superman, and Green Lantern (DC comics) with diamond construction powers. But for Tribal King. Tribal King just another inspired of King Jade Adelaide, Trace Legacy, and Adira Riftwall (Twokinds).
Gem Striker is also known as Miguelon Northwind, Miguelon was made in the lab by Life-Source company. During his career of reaching adulthood, he first met female Mardran Snep named Nessa Northwind who was a king of the British Water Tribe. After marrying Nessa, Miguelon started a family and began working as both Photographer of the of picture shop in the Nessa palace and a hero career.
BTW Gem Striker own personal Mighty Diamond Dragon transformation of emergency phase- wazzam
Tribal King, also known as King Nessa Northwind, is a British Water Tribe member. In her youth as a cub, she wanted to be the best warrior of the tribe instead of being a hunter like the others. During her early teens, Nessa spotted and pulled the most powerful Holy Excalibur Sword from the stone in the glowing water pond, and she was chosen to become the new king of the British Water Tribe. When she reached adulthood, Nessa became a king and a hero. But most of her Water Tribe Templar council members could not agree more that she would be a better king as a perfect breeder for her husband Gem Striker.

Ya know SMTIV, what this is actually perfect. Remember what I said about how Nasu could never be asked to show even a modicum of respect to Tezctalipoca as a figure, and how the "Tezcatlipoca" in FGO in no way has the spirit of their alleged origins?
Tumblr media
Well I don't care much for this design either.
In fact I don't like SMT's (or more specifically Soejima's, who is still very much talented as I'll make clear) Tezcatlipoca design at all. I personally find it ugly and having an aesthetic I'm not that fond of, particularly the sort of "Bigfoot sighting" pose he has going on.
But i don't hate it, and I certainly am not morally opposed to it like FGO's, because even if I personally dislike it, ya know what it is? It's still undeniably based on Tezcatlipoca and keeps that spirit in several ways evident through design alone, let alone the way he's implemented into the game itself. It's a design that feels like it respects the culture it's taking its name from, and I'd much rather it do that than have an aesthetic I'm more fond of but lack any representation of its source material.
Tumblr media
Just on a surface level you can see the ways in which this is meant to be Tez.
Holding a human heart with one arm, which were sacrificed to him in Aztec rituals
His body is visibly black and navy blue and made of a stony substance, which is a reference to the association many aztec gods but especially Tez had with obsidian rock, and the main symbol of Tez is an obsidian mirror.
Despite this, his other arm and legs are dissolving into smoke at the end, which is a reference to his main title of Smoking Mirror.
His skull-like head is pretty clearly meant to invokes a Calavera, which even if you didnt know the name of you've probably seen if you've ever witnessed a Day of the Dead festival.
That's all just the surface level stuff. There's plenty more if you know to look for it.
While one of his arms is visible, neither of his legs are, which fits with how Tezcatlipoca lost at least one of his legs to the giant crocodile Cipactli when the world was created
While blue isn't the primary color Tez is associated with, the use of teal/navy blue specifically fits with how he was often depicted with an almost interchangeable combination of grey-ish dark blue and black.
Despite my "bigfoot posture" remark, it very much fits Tezcatlipoca, whose spirit animal was the Jaguar, an animal well known for stalking and ambushing prey (rather than chasing it down like African big cats are known to do).
the way the smoke curls around as if forming an extremely distorted prosthetic foot matches how Tez's missing foot is specifically portrayed in the Codex Yohualli Ehécatl (AKA, the source of the image on Tez's wikipedia page), particularly with how the coloring shifts to orange-yellow at the end.
The most shaky but still worth noting claim: The emphasis on the blood flowing from the heart, combined with the gems embedded in Tez's head, could even be a reference to the Ezpitzal, which while looking very different in mesoamerican art still is no doubt connected, given how the key traits are flowing blood and embedding precious stone in [a crown above] the head.
So....do I like this design? No, personally, not really. I'm way too much of an edgelord to settle for such a toned down and subtle design for a figure like Tezcatlipoca.
Do I respect this design? Absolutely, zero question. It's the kind of design you could never get if they didn't at least TRY to research Tezcatlipoca, let alone do so well (at least i can only assume well based on the result). That's the difference between this design and "some white guy from the GAP who likes guns". You can tell they gave a shit, not just in general but specifically in regards to the culture being referenced.
(Oh, and also unlike FGO Tezcatlipoca, I don't need to be told "someone famous drew it" to be able to figure out someone talented drew it. )

Alright! Finished the First Doctor’s era (as is available on Tubi)! Here are a few of my highlights/thoughts:
Gotta love Barbara and Ian. They’re gems. They’re stars. They are included when the Daleks say “It is our greatest enemies.” Genuinely amazing first companions.
I wish I had actually seen Vicki and Steven’s departures, as well as Dodo’s introduction. It’s a shame the BBC is the way it is. (I will consider finding the audios in the future.)
I am instantly vibing so hard with Ben and Polly though. (“Duchess.” “Love.” “That bird saved my life.” I’m going to SCREAM.)
The Gunslingers was probably my favourite serial. Top tier comedy. 10/10. (Other strong contenders are The Chase and The Aztecs.)
The First Doctor’s best quality IS his giggle. “Hm hm! Heehee! Hoohoo!” Sir, I would die for you.
Even with so much Doctor Who history still to come between Hartnell’s era and the 2005 reboot I fell in love with, it’s SO cool seeing those aspects of the character that have survived (or were resurrected) since the beginning. (Something like River Song meeting The Doctor in series 4 and looking for aspects of The Doctor she knows in the man who came before him; a timey-wimey introduction.)
Just. This show. 🫶🏻
