#El Elyon

[israaverse]

[CANAAN/BAAL CYCLE] Designs for Asherah, lady of the waters, and El Elyon/Bull El. Asherah is chief wife of El and mother to a great many of the gods. El is past his prime, wearing a heavy cloak to mask his loss of strength as he searches for a deserving heir to the throne.

El wears the Sun Disc of the Apis Bull because I really like the theory that Apis-worship was an import/absorbed from Canaan, considering later attribution of the Golden Calf and Egyptian artwork showcasing Apis Bulls with Canaan-specific markings. Asherah's design of being barechested comes from a lot of her ancient iconography that shows her without any chest covering, breastfeeding, or actively displaying her chest. a lot of her symbolism also revolves around the Pubic Triangle and palm trees.

El, the original Semitic creator god. An omnipotent creator, all things emerged from his hands. With Reality bending around his fingers, El is the highest authority across the pantheon, Even greater than the king of the gods Baal. The specifics on how El created the universe is still a mystery, but it is believed that he created the cosmos from the nothingness around him. After creation, El investigated the seas of Chaos that flowed from him, among the waves bobbed the heads of two women, that of Asherah and Raḥmayyu. Curious, El took them home and began cooking a bird, he asked them that once the bird was done if they could call to him as either father or husband, whichever one they picked he would behave as such, once the bird was done they called to him as husband. The following intimate night resulted in the birth of Shachar and Shalim, the gods of Dusk and Dawn. From his coupling with his two wives the pantheon of Canaan was born. Baal, Mot, Yam, Astarte, Anat, all of them came from the light of El. El oversaw and organized the race for the throne of the king of the gods, a competition in which his children could campaign to be bestowed the throne by El. During the race, the sea god Yam gained much influence, with him having the favor of El’s wife Asherah. However, during a gathering of the pantheon, Yam insults the entire pantheon including his own father El. But following a duel with Baal, Yam is defeated and forced to pull out of the race, leaving Baal to be crowned the king of the gods. With the help of Asherah, Baal is able to convince El to authorize the construction of a palace. However during a feast ushered by the newly appointed Baal, the death god Mot consumes him. El joins the universe in grieving the loss of his son. Despite being in the throes of grief, El dreams that Baal is still alive. Elated, El sends the sun goddess Shapsh to rescue his son. After his return Baal once again begins combat with Mot, that is until El steps in, threatening Mot that if he continues he’d annihilate him, causing Mot to back down. In a separate myth, during a feast of the gods, El gets outrageously drunk, but is ultimately healed.

El was an incredibly important deity, it cannot be understated just how important he was. His worship evolved and transmitted into many different gods, the Syrian Dagan, the Mesopotamian Anu Enlil and Marduk, the Hurrian Kumarbi, and his Hittite form Elkunirsa. El also corresponds to the Chinese Shangdi, the Zoroastrian Ahura Mazda, and the Slavic Rod and Svarog, with some of these gods possibly developing out of El. The Egyptian Ptah also has traces of El within his worship, as both share the epithet of “Eternal”, however among the Egyptians Kothar-wa-khasis was supposed to be cognate with Ptah. The most important theological relation El holds is his connection to the modern Abrahamic God, as El is the direct originator of the Deity. Originally Known as Yhwh, this deity originated as the Israeli form of El, similar to how Dagan was the Syrian form of the god. Yhwh was a divine warrior god married to Asherah, with their children being the other Canaan gods like Baal and Astarte, all these deities held divine messengers known as Malak. Yhwh was the foremost worshipped deity in ancient Israel, with the vast majority of prayer being offered to them. However during the subjugation of Israel under Babylon, the monotheistic Yhwh emerged as a form of resistance against their Babylonian rulers. The deities of Canaan were demonized and absorbed into Yhwh and his Malak, who became the angels of Abrahamic faith. The naming scheme of angels keeps their relation with El, as seen in Raphael the oldest name among the angels. The modern God shares many of their other titles with El, including El Shaddai, Elohim (the term referring to the Canaanite pantheon meaning “the children of El), and El Elyon. Phoenicia also held Canaan’s gods and myths, including El. However due to being conquered by the Greeks, Phoenicia was forced to Hellenize their culture, with it essentially becoming Greek mythology with a Canaanite coat of paint. This is seen most prominently in their recorded creation myth, in which El wasn’t the creator or original god, but rather the son of the sky and earth who in turn were created by El Elyon, which was originally a name for El himself. El is later deposed by Baal, obviously this myth is heavily based on the greek theogony, with El taking the place of Chronus and Baal with Zeus. My personal theory on the origin of El is that he may have developed from the African creator gods, like Ra, Nyame, Amma, and even possibly Zanahary. El held many titles, such as “the bull god”, “Creator of creatures”, “the gracious one”, “father of the gods” and “father of man”. In many god lists from ancient Canaan, El is preceded by Ilib, a character not mentioned in any other texts. Ilib’s placement has led to the idea that it was possibly a forerunner deity to El, however no other texts support this, and the belief that El was the original deity contradicts this. Ilib is used as a term to refer to dead ancestors in Canaan, so most likely the Ilib in the god lists refers to the familial dead ancestors. The word El is used as a term to denote a deity in Canaanite language, evolving from Il, in texts however El himself is distinguished from this word by using ha El meaning “the great El”.

Beyblade -> Date A Live

Here is another of my random rambles from the cold darkness that is my spirit. The last word of that sentence is apt, this Beyblade Burst and Beyblade: Metal Saga recast is based on Date A Live. Once again, the main OC of mine will be included, this time on both sides, as I have a Beyblade variant and a Date A Live variant of said OC. There's also a small list of what their abilities would be, if the intersex thing were to become a Spirit. Because all the positions of the Sefirot and Qliphoth are filled in by canon people, I had to look through the many Abrahamic angels to locate those that fit with Sahaidachny's character that were not in said respective structures of the Kabbalah. Though supposedly Uriel was the guardian of the Sefirot of Kabbalah as well as the Gatekeeper of Eden. I also looked to the Book of Revelations and the Book of Genesis and stumbled upon something called Demonolatry which seems interesting.

I thought I'd combine two of my favourite series into a post. It seems ridiculous, but I couldn't care less.

Once again, not all people from each series is included. Closest match based on MBTI and Enneagram used. A list of Spirits in each AU is supplied, in which the Angel is instead based on the person's Beyblade.

--------------------------------------------------

C.J.S. is intersex, and the closest thing humans can get to being a biological hermaphrodite. In their hypothetical arc, Furutani Youkai -> Furutani Imperfect, their Angel would only be revealed near the end, and they would mostly be seen with their Demon King.

The concepts of subconscious loneliness, self-worth, getting them to open their heart again, wanting someone to understand them, finding the truth of one's self and being able to be one's self are the core tenets of their story. After realising that last part, they spontaneously broke into silent sobbing for the first time in their life. Being mentally and emotionally bullied for 10-11 years of your life purely for personality and conditions/disabilities does that (They have Autism, Epilepsy, Todd's Paralysis, Psoriasis, Narcolepsy, Hypersensitivity, a genetic fault that results in a lack of body temperature regulation).

They often wear a lavender purple yuki-onna-esque kimono as their casual outfit, and otherwise will wear an ice-blue shirt with a snowstorm-esque pattern alongside loose ice-white trousers and a thin but large lavender/soft dark purple jacket resembling a lab coat or dressing gown. There are other clothing options, including a lavender/royal purple shrine maiden outfit with same-coloured mob cap or lavender/ice-white bow, an ice-white cross between a dressing gown and artist's apron with a lavender blanket tied around their waist, and whatever other loose clothing options they have in their shrine of a house. When attending Raizen, they wear the school uniform. Both variants, due to being intersex.

They are naturally lacking in emotional expression. To them, a small smile means they are extremely happy and a minuscule frown means they are incredibly unhappy. They are seemingly cold/emotionless on the surface and acted cold-hearted/emotionless to the point where they were convinced its who they were, but a slowly re-emerging emotion both confused and plagued them until they freaked out and finally revealed - shoddily at first until they suddenly shouted in confusion and despair "I don't know anymore... I have no idea what's wrong with me!" - what they thought of themselves to a group that always thought they didn't care about the group before the final battle. Furu has gone suicidal and was at a mental point where the slightest thing could tip them one way or the other. They had turned out to be someone who saw themselves as some worthless cripple who had lost all use to themselves or Shido and couldn't break or change themselves for their art or for his sake. Needless to say he wasn't impressed with this revelation (I don't regret the reference). Most noticeably, they had an unexplainable intellectual and emotional obsession (read: romantic love - only fully realised in the middle of the final battle of their arc when they were told by Itsuka that they're allowed to be themselves. Cue subsequent curling up and denial with the sealed Spirits helping them realise the truth of their subconscious, which finally made them admit their inner feelings and how they came to be. Come the transition from Inverse to Normal including Uriel appearing for the first time and their subsequent defeat finally able to move on from their past, they thank Itsuka for everything and say they're ready to find out what a date is. Weirdly, they use El Elyon as a makeshift outfit for the date, because the only Spirit with less shame than Furutani is Tobiichi. It's the autism. After said date involving utilising Michael to go to an art museum and an Italian restaurant, they willingly allow themselves to be sealed.) with the one that seals Spirits who had successfully befriended them despite previous life experiences within their subconscious. In reality, their true personality is apathetic to everyone except those they bond with, with whom they like merely being in the presence of, which their lack of expression fails to show to others. They can't even start a conversation on their own without confusing everyone around them. Also slightly creepy due to a natural talent for appearing out of nowhere and for casual stalking of person/people they become really romantically close to. Their emotional intelligence is absurdly low and they do not understand exactly what bonds are, only that they enjoy them. An individual with almost absurd levels of typical intelligence through prodigal talent/hard effort who had gone emotionally despondent and isolated themselves completely due to events in their life. Couple that with having been betrayed by so-called friends who turned into bullies and you have someone who simply is desperate to be understood. Prior to sealing, they saw themselves as beyond worthless and had a history of being used purely for their talents particularly in art - being an artist is their hobby and one of their passions - and intellectually. Since being sealed and joining the main group, they have become much happier upon accepting that it's alright to be themselves. They are also asexual, and biromantic.

The theme of C. Sahaidachny is searching for the truth (after 10-11 years of mental & emotional torment & bullying for who they were desensitized them to almost everything/wrecked their emotional capacity/made them inwardly terrified of opening up to anyone) about who they are, and ultimately realizing they're allowed to be themselves and learning that they are not less than worthless. Learning not to be over-defensive around everyone and being able to trust others again are also key facets in the development towards that.

The Angel takes the form of a Shimenawa inspired by the same structure on Regnar** with a much smoother shape somewhat similar to the shimenawa held by Kanako Yasaka (see: Moriya Shrine) though not made of really thick rope. There's also colour alterations - Red -> Lavender Purple, Light Gold -> Dark Purple, White -> Black. It is engraved with what appears to be a painting of cold air and dandelions. The Shimenawa can also be wielded as a weapon in its own right, due to the outer part resembling Twisted Tempo, specifically the Twisted fusion wheel. Besides the Angel, Furu also has their own weapon that is essentially a combination of an absurdly long gohei and a comically large paintbrush, at either end respectively. It's slightly smaller than Reimu's gohei (see: Hakurei Shrine).

The Demon King takes the form of an ethereal compass sigil**** coloured in ice-blue and ice-white. The Roman Numerals inscribed on the compass are a purposeful falsehood linking back to the motif of truth and the destruction of the barriers that stand in the way of discovering the truth, the answer so to speak.

The Astral Dress is based on Regnar** of Beyblade Burst, besides the head and the Shimenawa-esque structure which is what the Angel is based on, with the following colour alterations - White -> Ice-White, Red -> Lavender Purple, Light Gold -> Royal Purple, Blue -> Ice-Blue, Dark Grey -> Black. A halo that somewhat resembles the accretion disk of a black hole (or the hypothetical gravastar) forms above the head. The concepts of the celestial canvas - and art - itself are the motif of that which essentially combines the scientific and the occult into one collection of abilities. El Elyon possesses a high durability bested only by Adonai Melek. However it is also one of the slowest, which is its one weakness, and Furutani can easily be caught in sensory overload rendering them vulnerable, particularly against multiple opponents.

In the Inverse form, the Astral Dress is more based on Genesis rather ironically, minus the head part and the lower half which is based on the image that isn't Genesis. The colour scheme is altered from the basis as the following - White -> Ice-White, Light Pink -> Ice-Blue, Gold -> Black, Red -> Dark Gold, Dark Grey -> White, Purple -> Lavender Purple. A spiked halo of black ice forms above the head.

The Astral Dress is vastly different to the general norm of these clothing items in style. The Inverse Form is no more powerful than the main form, the difference is fighting style. Except for one technique in which the Angel version is weirdly more powerful than the Demon King version if only by slightly.

Clarkov's/Furu's Angel is known as Uriel - based on the being known as the Archangel of Salvation among other titles - representing the angel of wisdom and truth who guides people to answers they seek. Uriel is said to be the gatekeeper of Eden, the one who acts as bodyguard to the Kabbalah and by extension the Sefirot, the one who warned Noah of the biblical flood and one of the four angels - alongside Raphael, Michael and Gabriel - who protected the four corners of Earth.

Furu's Demon King is known as Abaddon - otherwise known as The Destroyer - representing the fallen angel of destruction and the abyss. Abaddon is said to be the embodiment of God's wrath who keeps existence in balance, unleashing their power on anything that may greatly disturb it. Essentially the enforcer of the angels. They are also regarded as playing a vital role in the Apocalypse itself, casting divine judgement on those who do not believe as well as those who fake their belief with their locust-derived plagues born from the depths of Hell.

As mentioned earlier, in the Book of Enoch, Uriel is described as the guardian of the Tree of Life (the Kabbalah, which bares the Sefirot that the main 10 Spirits are based on). As such, Furutani's Uriel would be the complete all-rounder. Their battle capabilities are roughly on par with Metatron, it has similar divination powers to Rasiel though it can't make stuff reality, and its strongest move Regalia is pretty much a better version of Eden and would override Paradise Lost if activated inside it. Which, they would do, because Furu utterly despises the entire concept of Eden as a whole. Uriel would effectively be a Story-Breaker Power like Rasiel, Michael, Eden and Ain Soph Aur.

The database would rank Furutani as an SS-Class Spirit, on the same level as Rinne and then above her too. The only reason Furutani wouldn't class as an SSS-Class Spirit is because that spot is reserved purely for Mio who is just far ahead of absolutely every other Spirit, naturally as the Spirit of Origin. Besides Mio who could still curb-stomp them despite all this, Furutani would almost certainly be the most powerful Spirit of all unless Mukuro had anything to say about it. However due to their inexperience in battle and disabilities, they would also likely be defeated by fused Yamai while being level both with Origami and Tohka due to their Fecto Elfilis-esque fighting style. Since their personality partially resembles (and their powers are based on) Faust and Gwyn Reynolds who is at or near the top and both beyond overpowered in their respective series/verses, this absurd level of overpowered-ness would fit. Though frankly, Furu's personality resembles Rin Tezuka's more than anything. It also resembles to various extents the personalities of Mizore Shirayuki and Naho Saenoki. Furu seems confusing, but they aren't. Furu will tell you that.

In this version of the verse, the Main Spirit power ranking would go like this, along with their assigned classes for my version (equivalent to canon, except for alterations based on grading that goes from SSS to A with anything from A to C and below utilised for AST or others*):

Mio Takamiya - SSS-Class (Ain/Ain Soph/Ain Soph Aur)

Isaac Westcott - SSS-Class (Qemetiel/Belial/Athiel)

Shido Itsuka - SSS-Class (All main Angels + Uriel)

Mukuro Hoshimiya - SS-Class (Michael)

Yamai Kazamachi - SS-Class (Raphael [Fused])

Tohka Yatogami - SS-Class (Sandalphon)

Clarkov Furutani - SS-Class (Uriel)

Origami Tobiichi - SS-Class (Metatron)

Kurumi Tokisaki - SS-Class (Zaphkiel)

Nia Honjou - SS-Class (Rasiel)

Rinne Sonogami - SS-Class (Eden)

Miku Izayoi - S-Class (Gabriel)

Kotori Itsuka - S-Class (Camael)

Kaguya/Yuzuru Yamai - S-Class (Raphael)

Mayuri - S-Class (Kerubiel)

Ren - AAA-Class (Samael)

Marina Arusu - AAA-Class (???)

Rio Sonogami - AA-Class (Eden [Incomplete])

Yoshino Himekawa - AA-Class (Zadkiel)

Natsumi Kyouno - AA-Class (Haniel)

Maria Arusu - A-Class (???)

*And an extra upgrade to Miku based on the biblical idea of Michael, Uriel, Gabriel and Raphael protecting the four corners of the globe. Nia gets the extra upgrade too as I see Rasiel as better than it gets credit for, along with a slight downgrade to Rinne when scaling is taken into account. Ren and Mayuri are given a class too. The Inverse variants are the same class as the normal variants in this version, but are still generally better in combat.

Weirdly, the many yandere Spirits would include Rinne, Mukuro, Furutani and Mio, potentially even Origami and Kurumi. In essence, Furutani would be equivalent to Rin Tezuka or even Mizore Shirayuki.

The attacks are partially based on those used by Gwyn Ronny and extra info about their power is also based on Gwyn and his canon battles. They are also partially inspired by Faust and Twisted Tempo. Their main arc and recovery is also inspired by the story of Gwyn Ronny in Beyblade Burst as is the case for all variants of the OC - who was created originally as a coping method for someone who was isolated and lonely due to constant bullying due to being disabled and no one attempting to try and understand them, with lack of self-worth and lack of self-acceptance as standard. Yes, that person is me. I regret nothing.

Attacks of Uriel/Abaddon:

Onbashira [טוריי (Turre) -> Torii] -> A vaguely lavender purple band traces itself and expands into an ethereal barrier that looks like a celestial paintbrush stroke. It contracts upon contact and then pushes out to deflect incoming attacks. It is capable to deflecting Lahathelev (Kerubiel) and Shemesh (Metatron) at once with great effort. It is also capable of withstanding a meteor summoned by Lataib (Michael) when working together with other defensive techniques. A blast from Megiddo (Camael) or the effects of Solo (Gabriel) are enough to break Onbashira.

Palette [אשת שלג (Esht Shelag) -> Yuki-Onna] -> The user gestures as if they were placing (watercolour) pencil or paintbrush to canvas, and a constantly-fluctuating-in-colour pocket draws surrounding residue mana into the arm which forms a large ethereal blade which then back-slashes against the opponent. This move is able to defeat Zadkiel. It can also severely damage Zaphkiel. When enhanced by March (Gabriel), Palette (Uriel) can take down Zadkiel and Haniel in one go after being momentarily pushed back. The move is sent packing by Symphony (Gabriel) if the latter is amplified by enough soundwaves.

Spectrum [מארח שמימי (Mareh Shamimi) -> Heavenly Host] -> A celestial fog that looks a bit like intergalactic space and is absurdly cold like intergalactic space appears and slowly spreads around the area surrounding Furutani, who then slowly brings their hand which is glowing lavender purple through the fog. Once fully outstretched in front of them, they then close their hand while at the same time bringing their arm still straightened from in front of them to as far behind them as it will reasonably go, causing the celestial fog to disperse. At the fog's sudden fading, the Shimenawa fades and transfers its energy in the form of the full spectrum of colour - even black and white - to the user giving them a boost in power. In the Inverse Form, the wings fade instead. This move allows Uriel to hold its own against a fused Yamai's Raphael, and can be used to sustain El Elyon after Jerez (Michael) initially dismantles it. The hair turns lavender, dull red or grey-silver in this state depending on their mood.

Eclipse [רוח רפאים (Roah Refaim) -> Youkai] -> {Demon King Version} -> The corrupted form of the ultimate move of Uriel/Abaddon, used by Abaddon. The compass glows violently in an ice-blue colouring with the needles rotating counter-clockwise at breakneck speed, and the wings shift to where their end points are separated by a small gap in front of the user and emit a colossal shockwave which retracts in on itself and then gather residue mana in that gap before the energy is grabbed and thrown into the sky where it expands outwards in a bright ball of lavender purple light. Within it is a dense ice-cold fog within which the user forms a scissor-esque weapon***** in one hand and their Gohei/paintbrush thing in the other hand and charges towards the opponent. Eclipse (Abaddon) is capable of matching Artelif (Metatron).

Parity [סופת שלגים (Sufat Shlagim) -> Snowstorm] -> {Angel Version} -> The true nature of the ultimate move of Uriel/Abaddon, used by Uriel and unlocked after Clarkov finally realises they're allowed to be themselves, stops being Inverse and uses their Angel Uriel for the first time near the end of the hypothetical final battle between Clarkov and Shido in the fan-made arc Furutani Beginning. The Shimenawa emits a colossal shockwave and the user holds their hands to their heart and releases them. The user then holds both hands around the ball of energy and gently releases it as if they were reaching out to hug someone, upon which it forms an ice-white aura on El Elyon that gathers mana from the surrounding area and draws it towards below where the user is standing in the form of black-ish jagged streaks of light. Upon contact with an opposing force, the ball spreads out in a small space containing a scene resembling something out of Otherworld (see: Miitopia) with a lavender tint. The origin point explodes within the space and forms into a shape resembling the shockwave of a frozen star going hypernova of the same colour erupting from the centre where Uriel's user and the opponent have collided. There's also a lot of dandelions present. The Angel equivalent is more powerful than the Demon King equivalent, a rarity for Uriel and in general. Parity (Uriel) can match and even surpass Artelif (Metatron) in direct combat.

Revelation [אמן (Amen) -> Artist] -> The natural ability of Uriel to quantify and produce a solution for any subjective problem that comes to the user's mind, no matter how difficult. It manifests in the form of equations and formulae flowing from the Shimenawa into the head. However it is ineffective when confronted with objective problems. The Inverse Form does not have this ability as it is clouded by vast negative emotions. Think of it like this, Rasiel excels at objective information while Uriel excels at subjective information.

Regalia [עיוות/מושלם (Katawa/Amants) -> Imperfect] -> Uriel's final and most powerful ability after having it's hidden power hypothetically unlocked by Shifuru (Michael). The Shimenawa moves from behind the user to the front and emits a shockwave even greater than that from Parity, powerful enough to shake the entire vicinity for miles around and partially shred Astral Dresses caught within the blast. From the focal point of the shockwave, a barrier similar to that of Parity expands outward that contains its own reality which Uriel has total control of via a shrine complete with a torii and onbashira in the epicentre of a field covered in ice and dandelions. It is extremely similar to Paradise Lost (Eden) and is effectively a superior version of Eden in terms of power and capabilities but is vastly outclassed by Ain Soph because of course it is. It can also act as a defensive barrier capable of withstanding attacks from both Halvanhelev (Sandalphon) and El Kanaph (Raphael) at the same time.

The Limited form, after being sealed, has access to vastly weakened variants of its abilities. Shifuru (Michael) is capable of awakening Uriel's hidden power. With the fading of Genesis alongside the other Sephira Crystals, El Elyon and Uriel disappeared with them.

Uriel is virtually powerless against Ain Soph Aur, Ain Soph and Ain. The likes of Henet and Anaph crush Onbashira, Palette, Spectrum and Parity into fine dust. However Revelation can help hold back the effects of Ain Soph briefly. Even Regalia is completely rended by Ain Soph and Ain, mainly because while Regalia is superior to Eden, Ain Soph is vastly superior to Regalia. The barrier form of Regalia is also overpowered.

AWAKENING: DRUNKARDS & EMPTINESS

Before we approach the esoteric meaning behind the Wedding At Cana we need to look at the concept of drunkenness. To be full is to be content. Without thirst there would be no need for living water right. Let’s dive into why one must be empty of all understanding to receive. Rock with me as we take the journey within.

Viktor:

Starlet: Deeply, you understand beauty--what it is to possess it, to surround yourself in it, to be consumed by it. It's better, isn't it? To create your own world full of lights and glamour than to live in reality with the rest of us? It's like living in a movie. You win, by the way. This is your movie, you're our star. Be careful, though, getting too far from reality. It gets more and more difficult to come back, and you've got to, at some point.

Giacomo:

Hero: The hero in a relative sense, anyhow. You have your moments of weakness, but you're the best one for the job. Or the only one that wants it. Golden child, high aptitude, natural leader, whatever it may be--you've grown used to being favored, to being the best. You walk a fine line and you'll lose yourself to insanity if you aren't careful. You know that, though. It began to dawn on you a long time ago what you've gotten yourself into.

Elyon:

Ghost: You seem to think you're the villain. I don't think that you are. I don't know why you'd want to be, either. There is always love and light if you look for it and I think you would enjoy that, if you would let yourself be apart of that world instead of haunting it from beyond the glass. It really isn't much fun to be a villain, but I think you know that. It's easier, sure, than trying to be a good, happy person, but it isn't as much fun. The cool aesthetics only make up for so much.

Jun:

Ghost: You seem to think you're the villain. I don't think that you are. I don't know why you'd want to be, either. There is always love and light if you look for it and I think you would enjoy that, if you would let yourself be apart of that world instead of haunting it from beyond the glass. It really isn't much fun to be a villain, but I think you know that. It's easier, sure, than trying to be a good, happy person, but it isn't as much fun. The cool aesthetics only make up for so much.

Valeria:

Villain: I know some of them pity you. They think you must be exhausted carrying around that much resentment, that much anger. I know what you did, though, what it must have taken to get here. You had no fall from grace; you walked into the pit, eyes open, feet planted firmly on the staircase. And so be it. It's an effective lifestyle, if you're willing to commit to it. I'm sure you'll get where you're going. And then they'll see, they'll all see--because that's what's important, isn't it?

(ME ESTOY MEANDO, NO LO ESPERABA Y LO PEOR ES QUE ES CIERTO JAJAJAJAJA).

Ghost: You seem to think you're the villain. I don't think that you are. I don't know why you'd want to be, either. There is always love and light if you look for it and I think you would enjoy that, if you would let yourself be apart of that world instead of haunting it from beyond the glass.

Samir:

Lover: [platonic or romantic!] You are so full of love and light; you value the people around you more than anything. I hope you find what you're looking for. I hope you find the right people at the right time and that your world is full of love; I hope your love is returned to you, properly, and that you don't ever get too hurt (because you're prone to it, aren't you?). You deserve that, you deserve the world. I wish you the best. Also, I'm serious, read the last lines of the minecraft end poem if you haven't, I think you'll like it.

[thrashkink-coven]

Just to make things clear because I’m getting a lot of confusion about this:

I am a theistic Luciferian, I worship, work with, and follow the God Eosphorus and Hesperus as the personas of Venus as (s)he appears as the morning and evening star. Lucifer is the Roman name of this deity, while Eosphorus and Hesperus are the Greek name(s) of this deity. He is the God of enlightenment, vision, introspection, and knowledge, promising the light of a new day and guiding his followers through the darkness of night. This archetype encompasses him as a metaphor for the astrological aspects of the heavens, more so then his persona as a “character” or person”. This Phosphorus doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with the rebellious Lucifer of Christianity.

However, when I refer to Lucifer as the angel (or God) Helel, I am referencing his title as the angel of rebellion who rose to the heavens of El Elyon out of pride, only to fall and rise again. (This is of a polytheistic mythology of near eastern civilizations like the Canaanites, similar to that of Christianity but distinctly different in a few ways.) Helel is the Ugaritic name of this deity, very likely derived from Attar.

(In myth, Attar (Ashtar, Athtart) appears in both male and female forms, associated with the planet Venus. He attempted to occupy the throne of Ba'al and, finding he was unable to do so, descended and ruled the underworld. The original myth may have been about a lesser god, Helel, trying to dethrone the Canaanite high god El, who was believed to live on a mountain to the north. This all ties back to Inanna.)

I take a syncretic approach to these two archetypes and combine them together to represent both the Venus of the skies (literally the planet and it’s movements) as well as the persona of Venus and the rebellion.

I am not a satanist, I don’t have any relationships with or recognize a satan in my practice. My practice is entirely removed from the Christian cannon. I have nothing against satanists and I am friends with a few of them, I’m just not one.

When I refer to Lucifer, I am not referring to Satan. That doesn’t mean that Satan and Lucifer aren’t the same in certain contexts, they just aren’t in the context of my practice.

My Lucifer is Venus, not Satan. If you ever see me tag my posts with satanism or satan it’s just because i think Satanists would enjoy it, not because I am one. Glad we got that cleared up 👍

El Elyon, deliver me Jesus Christ in wet leather.

[shatar-aethelwynn]

“Most High, or “‘Elyon,” is a formal title of El, the senior god who presided over the divine council in the Ugaritic literature of ancient Canaan. The reference thus invokes, as do other biblical texts, the Near Eastern convention of a pantheon of gods ruled by the chief deity (Pss. 82.1; 89.6-8). Israelite authors regularly applied El’s title to Israel’s God (Gen. 14.18-22; Num. 24.16; Pss 46.5;47.3). In relation to Israel’s numbers is unintelligible as it stands. The variant attested by the LXX and at Qumran, “according to the sons of El” (cf. NRSV), which preserves the mythological reference to Most High (“Elyon”) earlier in the v., makes much more sense. Here, the idea is that the chief god allocates the nations to lesser deities in the pantheon. (A post-biblical notion that seventy angels are in charge of the world’s seventy nations echoes this idea). Almost certainly, the unintelligible reading of the MT represents a “correction” of the original text (whereby God presides over other gods) to make it conform to the later standard of pure monotheism: There are no other gods! The polytheistic imagery of the divine council is also deleted in the Heb at 32.43; 33.2-3, 7.” – JPS Tanakh commentary on Deut. 32.8 (“When the Most High gave nations their homes/And set the divisions of man,/He fixed the boundaries of peoples/In relation to Israel’s numbers.”)

[gatekeeper-watchman]

Good morning, World The Capital of Palestine is Canaan Canaan was located in the southern Levant during the time of Melchizedek, which is now part of Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, the West Bank, and Gaza. 

During the Exodus, Canaan was an Egyptian province. Each town had its own local ruler or Egyptian governor, who reported to the Pharaoh of Egypt. 

Melchizedek is thought to have been the king of Jerusalem, which was originally called Salem. Psalm 76:2 and Genesis 14:17 imply that Salem and Jerusalem are the same place. 

Melchizedek (King of Right) High Priest served the highest God, El Elyon, El Shaddai later the scriptures reveal this same God is Yahweh or Yehova. The Canaanites are not as everyone would believe. Noah curses Canaan because Ham was already blessed (God blessed noah Shem ham and japheth Gen 9) God does not curse canaan nor are the descendants of Ham cursed. Canaanites like many hamitic people knew God. Remember Moses learned from Jethro a midianite a hamite. Remember Balaam the false prophet, not false because his gift was fraud but false because he used the gift for his own glory. Remember God removed the Canaanites from dominating the land because they had committed abominations. (The Israelites did not commit genocide; they never removed all Canaanites from the land). This implies God was holding them accountable for a knowledge and revelation they had of HIM. Melchizedek being not only the King of Salem (Shalom/Peace Jeru-Salem/ The city of Righteousness and Peace) But also being a priest of the Highest definitely implies people of that land knew Yahweh and served Him. To be honest the first ever historical evidence of YHWH being mentioned is in ancient canaan. The people of the land knew Yah before Avram. Matter of fact God calls Abram to where He is, in the land of Canaan. The scriptures say Melchizedek has no father or mother and that he abides a priest forever. Is Melchizedek fully human? I don’t know seeing how He points so much to Jesus Christ. Christ the King of Jerusalem, He is the king of Right, He is God's High Priest. He brings in everlasting righteousness and peace His body and blood are the bread and wine. What i can say is that i believe His earthly appearance was that of Canaanite people even as Jesus took on the flesh of the people of His nation. To answer the question again but plainly Melchizedek served God and the people of the land of canaan. Jebusites dwelt in Jerusalem so they were most likely worshipers of Yah. Jebusites in Jerusalem (Joshua 12, Samuel 5, 1 chronicles 11) Canaanites also did service in the temple this is most likely because they worshiped and served Yah before the priesthood of Aaron. Seeing how they most likely served in the days of Melchizedek. In the book of Zechariah 14:21 the prophecy says, "and in that day there shall be no more the Canaanite in the house of the Lord of Hosts. Even in His day nearly the end of the Old Testament Canaanites was still worshiping in the temple where the Jews worshiped. Job was also a worshiper of the Highest. Job 1:1 says he lived in the land of Uz, which scholars associate with modern Arabia– agarza.

The answer is yes. Melchizedek, as the king of Salem and priest of El Elyon, served Canaanites in his city and the surrounding area. El Elyon means "God Most High." It combines the word "god" with the honorific "most high."

El was also the name of the supreme deity in Canaanite mythology. He was the father of the gods and the head of the assembly of the god, also called the divine council. The epithet "elyon" (also spelled Aliyan) was also applied to other deities. From the myths of the Ba'al Cycle

Baal sets the season and gives forth His voice from the clouds. He flashes lightning to the earth. As a house of cedars let Him complete it, or a house of bricks let Him erect it! Let it be told to Aliyan Baal: 'The mountains will bring Thee much silver.

Considering this, it is most probable that Elyon was one of many titles applied to the supreme deity El. Melchizedek would have worshiped him as the head of the divine assembly. Whether he also served other deities is not stated in the text, but Abram accepted El Elyon as being the same god as his own YHWH (the Lord). Gen. 14:22 - "I have sworn to the Lord, El Elyon, the creator of heaven and earth."

As priest-king of Canaan, Melchizedek's priesthood would have served the people of Salem and its environs. He also ministered to Abram when they shared a sacred meal together and Melchizedek blessed Abram as follows:

Genesis 14:19-20

“Blessed be Abram by El Elyon, the creator of heaven and earth; And blessed be El Elyon, who delivered your foes into your hand.”

Conclusion: Although this blessing is the only such benediction recorded, Melchizedek would have blessed many people of the region the in the name of El Elyon. I agree, and Paul only stated that the Hebrews, by way of Abraham, did not know the Jebusite King's heritage. Without father, without mother, without genealogy, nor beginning of days, nor having end of life, but like the Son of YAHWEH, His priesthood remains forever. (Heb 7:3) The Greek word apatōr comes from Strong states: fatherless, that is, of unrecorded paternity. The same is said about his mother, and then to make it clear, the next Greek word is agenealogētos, which means unregistered as to birth. I feel that descent was a wrong word choice, and it has thrown many people off. It is vital not to make the Bible simple for all to understand. It is sad because the Pharisees started this racist falsehood against the Canaanites, and then slavery came about because they were black people who came from Cham. The Bible wants to show that a person who committed sin by being drunk could not curse anyone. If all would read: And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Cham, and Japheth: and Ham is the father of Canaan. (Gen 9:18) This Scripture lets you know that Kanaan was not cursed. Then, the Bible gives the highest honor to a Canaanites that no other had before or after. Melchizedek was the King and Priest of YAHWEH EL SHADDAI! This black man would be honored to represent the order of YAHSHUA when HE returned to Heaven to become KING and PRIEST for all who will accept HIM and follow in HIS footsteps here on earth. YAHWEH Says HE changes not and will not let HIS WORD become void. (Isa 55:11) HE also respects anyone of any ethnic group. (Act 10:34) Abraham learned to return tithes from the Canaanites. King Bera of Sodom and his people also the other four cities of the Vale had stop worshipping THE HIGHEST and had turned to Baal. Abraham did not want any of the lute but he gave to Melchizedek tithing that the King need to return to YAHWEH. How fitting does it show that YAHWEH House is for all people. Likewise, it is very important to understand that many doctrines of religion may be from various sects of deism that may or may not have been interpreted properly and you must beware of hearsay from many who do not have the facts at all but it sounds good to them.  From: Steven P.
