Because of Saint Blaise’s association with cattle it is thought that there may have been some dual belief with the slavic god Veles (among other things a slavic god of the underworld, earth, vegetation, farmers and cattle) lurking under the guise of the saint.

In the Czech agrarian environment his patronage of animals was significant. Herders turned to Blažej when they drove their cattle to pasture, to protect their herd from wild animals.

In an incantation collected by a priest from a herder in 1784 the herder asks Blažej to:

Lock the mouths of all wolves and she-wolves, lynxes, snakes, scorpions, hornets, sorcerers, and witches with three keys from the Virgin Mary,

So that they do not smell, hear, tear the skin, tear the hair, eat the flesh of the cattle, spill their blood, break their bones, or even see gods herd.

The livestock were often protected by a goad upon which the saint’s name was tucked.

Saint Blaise’s feast day is February 3rd.

Veles

"The Slavic lord of the underworld, the god of wealth, a schemer. The soirée gives him the perfect conditions for feeding, goading, and plotting."

Wiktor Szulski, magician-detective in 1905 Warsaw, and his salutors.

My fanart of the indie demon-summoning RPG 'The Thaumaturge.' I drew this inspired by the old-school Shin Megami Tensei art style of Kazuma Kaneko.

The salutors depicted here -- Upyr, Bukavac, Lelek, and Veles -- are all of Slavic origin! Last suggestion piece, thanks to my 1.1k Twitter followers! Wiktor Szulski was suggested by North Adamus

slavic mythology: veles (volos)

"Veles, also known as Volos, is a major god of earth, waters, livestock, and the underworld in Slavic paganism. According to reconstruction by some researchers, he is the opponent of the supreme thunder god Perun. As such he probably has been imagined as a dragon, which in the belief of the pagan Slavs is a chimeric being resembling a cross between a bear and a snake that devours livestock."

Just realized I didn't post this here. My very short comic "The Vow" translated into English!

[arctellas]

Forgotten that I had this WIP. I said that I wouldn't gamble but Veles saved me in the late game.
