[swiftsuburbanlegends]

thinking very deeply about how Xavier is Jason coded with Ronnie personality and Dev is just Eliza if she DID want to be involved with family business. Like Eliza is gonna see them as a couple and go "oh... it was always both Ronnie and Jason in any lifetime"

This is so very true. Because everything is very interconnected in our verse.

And maybe a bit of insecurities come out for Ronnie, like he only sees Xavier's coolness at first. Not the flipping nerdiness there too.

But Eliza sees it. And it makes her feel better somehow that while she could always wonder what if she had picked Jason over Ronnie, she knows that that kinda choice doesn't matter as long as everyone ends up happy. Especially Megan.

Hey, you like COTL, right? Could you help me figure something out?

Why do people ship Narinder and the Lamb?

YOU ARE ONE OF TWO PEOPLE IVE MET ON THIS SITE THAT HAS ANY FORM OF RELATION TO THE GAME THAT SEEMS TO NOT SHIP NARILAMB!

And I'm not even sure about the other one

Oh I do ship them! I suppose from what I've seen it started out as like a very common joke? How most of the players that spared Narinder after defeating him ended up marrying him

Plus there's the whole mini quest series you get from him in post game where it seems he warms up to the Lamb and even ends up thanking them, I think that's pretty cute :] even if you don't ship them you could probably see them as unlikely friends at the end of it.

Then there's the domino effect of the ship being popular: people enter the fandom, see the ship is popular, then start shipping it as well because why not? Shipping is one of the biggest fandom fuels, so it's rather not surprising that the fandom latched onto something like that!

And, in the end, the creators seem to encourage the ship on Twitter a whole lot! They retweet art and interact with the community a lot in that regard, even having made some jokey official art with the two in a position where they'd be seen as a couple (as Mary and Joseph in a parody artwork for Christmas).

Nothing wrong if you don't enjoy the ship in the end, as long as you're respectful to the people that do! (Which goes both ways, of course.) The game has a lot to offer and the relationship between the Lamb and the One Who Waits is the one we get most of, so I don't think it's overall very surprising people choose to focus on them a whole lot!

[skysearring]

My thoughts on Saving Hope characthers since I'll finish the series tmrr! (Might edit the post after watching the last ep)

//////////////////////////////////

Charlie Harris: Bro got the cartoon main characther treatment, but I love how the show executed his powers (he speaks with patients' spirits). Deserved sm better in the series, and I mean it.

Alex Reid: She's such a sweetheart, deserved sm better in life, I loved her dynamic with Maggie sm

Joel Goran: THE FAN FAVORITEEE!! There are scenes that reminded me sm of Douxie from ToA for some reason, definally would trust my life on him, too bad he wasn't there for too long :(

Maggie Lin: Words cannot even describe how much I adore Maggie sm. She's such a nice friend and doctor, her and Sydney are soo cute together and I loved her dynamic with both Alex and Joel!

Dawn Bell: The Randolph Bell of Saving Hope basically: Her characther developtment is so much deserved, her and Zach are adorable. Deserved sm better in the series too

Zach Miller: I like how sarcastic he is. Him and Dawn are adorable together.

Shahir Hamza: THE SILLY!! As an autistic person myself, I absolutely adore him in the series and I love how the show projects that! I would love to see more autism representation later in the future 🫶

Sydney Katz: Her and Maggie are so cute together, but I don't like the times she ghosted Maggie before moving to London with her. (Saying this like around S3 - S4). Overall she's alright.

Dev Sekara: Him and Cassie are alr. Love his sense of humour. Would love to see more of him

Cassie Williams: She's an alright characther. There are scenes I loved her and there are scenes I didn't like her, but again, she's an alright characther with a bright future ahead of her. Love her sunshine energy

Dana Kinney: My 2nd fav from the series! Also deserved sm better in the series. Liked that she decided to switch to Trauma, you go queen! 👑

Asha Mirani: Nothing much to say since she suddently disaspear after S4. If she stayed much longer, she'll definally have a good future ahead of her. Deserved sm better in the series.

Billy Scott: Bro's just like me if I was a doctor. He's alright, but like Cassie, there are scenes I love him and scenes I hate him.

Jackson Wade (??): You know I gotta add him here, he's iconic and deserved more scenes.

Jeremy Bishop: Such a cool characther, reminds a lot of Joel just without accent, his dynamic with Alex was awesome and I liked his return in ep 16!

Kristine Fields: I like the idea that she's has the same powers as Charlie, but despite this, I'm not a fan of her. I didn't like that she was pushing Charlie on having a relationship with her and even lying to him. I'm not going to mention when she sent an army of ghosts on Charlie's head.

//////////////////////////////////

I heard that something bad will happend to one of them in the finale. I really hope its not another The Resident, S5 ep3 (aka The Long and Winding Road), I'm still in denial with that ep.

Anyways...let me know if you want to see more posts like these and if I forgot a characther, just tell me and I'll give my thoughts about him!

//////////////////////////////////

Edit: just watched ep 17. WHEN I SAID JACKSON NEEDED MORE SCENES I DIDN'T MEAN LIKE "POSSIBLE DEATH SCREENTIME" 😭😭

They gave us a cliffhanger...again...on a ep 17.

Saving Hope writers are definally taking inspiration on The Resident.

[donutfloats]

I love the idea that the title of God in cotl is gender neutral

Especially for Heket, I love that even tho she’s the only woman of the bishops, she’s referred to as a God instead of a Goddess

Idk I just really love Heket, she’s got the deepest voice, she’s physically the biggest when she transforms

It would have been so easy for the devs to have made her a guy, but no, they wanted her specifically to be a woman and to have all these traits

God I love her so much

New headcanon just dropped!

So the devs just set up a CotL music livestream and the animation used for it carries some interesting implications when it comes to the technology level of the CotL universe. The Lamb is using candles for light, and yet there's also a phonograph and -color- photograph on their desk. My personal conclusion?

The technology in CotL operates on Shrek logic.

Like, do you think there are rare historical photos of the Bishops that sell for a metric fuckton of gold? Is there a pawn show where people have brought said photos in, with a guy having to be called in to come and authenticate them? Does an embarrassing photo of Kallamar at some kind of party exist, buried away somewhere?

[spidey-555]

Did anyone else notice that outside of the first moments of the game, the genocide is scarcely mentioned? No npcs talk about it, not Narinder, not Ratau, not even the bishops. Unless I'm missing a lore tablet, the most we get is Kallamar saying "and when I was informed of what we had to do in order to keep Narinder locked up, I also didn't listen."

It's a bit odd to me that such a massive crime is kind of... brushed aside like that. Almost as if genocide, while still horrible, is pretty much nothing compared to what usually happens in the lands of the old faith. Kind of like the City from Project Moon

Which makes me wonder, are the devs eventually going to introduce a villain who committed a crime worse than genocide (if that even exists) to the game? And still keep the game rated teen?

Character Analysis on: Narinder (The One Who Waits)

Where we try to analize what really drove Narinder to betray the bishops of the Old Faith in the first place.

As a warning, the game leaves a lot to interpretation so a lot of gaps here and there will be filled with some theories and headcannons but you're welcome to ignore that and just take the pure analysis!

Alrigthy, lets begin!! (Rambles below)

He who lays a soul to rest...

But before we can talk about the time he was a God, we need to talk about the time before the red crown sat upon his brow.

We need to see the time when he was a mortal. As we know, all gods in COTL were once mere mortals, ascended by the power of the crowns.

This is the part where i mostly play with some headcannons so feel free to jump to the next tittle.

Before Godhood.

Now, we know Narinder is a black cat. This is one of the things that make his design so attractive. The god of death is a black cat and he has all the mysticism and mythology of this kind of cats attached to it. It's a great design!!

The thing is, before godhood, Narinder was STILL a black cat, without his god status, he was subjected to the whim of the mortals. And we now our dark furry friends don't have the best reputation...

This is mostly headcannon, but i think Narinder as a mortal had a pretty bad time. Everytime something went wrong in whatever village or place he was, he was quickly the first one to be accused, shunned out and despised. Seeing as a omen of bad luck and death himself, he could never find a place to call home.

We know the devs used the lamb as their main critter because lambs were one of the prefered animals to use as sacrifices for gods. But you know black cats are ALSO sacrificial animals?

Have you ever seen those PSA in halloween were it will say things like "If you have a black cat as a pet, please take care of it. Weirdos at this time of the year kill black cats for their weird ass rituals" or stuff like that?

Well, with this i mean that cats like Narinder, their blood was not even worthy to be spilled in the name of the gods... But in the name of demons or other kind of bad spirits...

Heck that must suck.

I know the game itself never gives us an indicative to say that black cats or any other kind of critter faces discrimination. But the only thing i have to defend this theory of mine is Forneus!

We all know sweet ol' Forneous. Cute shopkeeper, mother of Aym and Baal. Sweetest thing but have you noticed she never stays in the same place for too long?

We have a lot of NPC's we can find during crusades but that they also have a place where thay stay mostly and call home. Think of Plimbo, Midas, Sozo, Ratau and his friends.

"But Boku! There are other NPC's that are only found in Crusades and don't have another place where we can find them!" While yes but that's because those NPC don't have neither of this 2 characteristics:

1. They play a part of an important mechanic (Like selling seed, followers, teaching us new things, etc)

2. They have some kind of lore relevance

If an NPC doesn't play part of a game mechanic like fishing, or have a bit of lore to them, then why would they need a place to stay where we can find them besides crusades? The thing is that Forneus has these 2 characteristics.

She's a shopkeeper and the only way we can find the little gifts, some blueprints, follower forms, and even gold! And she has lore relevance as the mother of Aym and Baal and (Alledgedly) one of the few followers of the One Who Waits before the Lamb started the cult.

Heck she's all done! She could have her own little shop at any of the locations of the game where you can go to buy things (Maybe even have a "trade" kind of mechanic) where we can get more gifts for the followers, collars, and etc.

But she doesn't! And that's weird! She doesn't seem like the kind of NPC that deserves the treatment of "It has only 1 gimmick and that's it".

So, unless there's something that keeps her from having here own very shop at a specific place and instead has to be always traveling, Always moving around...

That's just a theory, tho!!

Going back to Narinder, as a summary, he had a pretty bad time as a mortal. That until Shamura found him and he was bestowed the red crown. Narinder had finally found a family, a place to call home, and on top of that was granted the blessing of godhood!! Things were meant to go swell for our favorite wet cat, right.....

Right....?

During GodHood.

Now Narinder was the god of Death in training, what an honor!! It is said that the bishops we know were kind of around before the purge of the gods ocurred (Shamura was there, called "A young god of war" by the ancient tablets).

So, things are going well for your found family, you're enjoying your time with your spider sibling and squid bro, helping to raise up a little frog and a squiggly worm who are also meant to be crown bearers.

All goes well until BAM! The purge begins. We don't have information on how it happened, or what incited it. We just know it was the biggest bloodshed ever seen, leaving only the bishops we know as survivors.

Narinder was still quite young when this happened. He saw how gods that were supposed to be friends or family betrayed each other during this war. He saw that not even goodhod was truly eternal.

Shamura and Kallamar were old enough to not be as affected by it. Leshy and Heket to young to remember all the details. But Narinder? Narinder was at an age, as an infant god, to be deeply affected about what war meant, and the things, horrible things people are able to do to get atop of a power struggle.

But at least he has his family. He had the bishops. They would never do such a thing! They were brothers in arms, there was nothing they couldn't do together, they would never turn their backs on each other! There was nothing they couldn't understand.

And so, the years went by. The purge of the gods transforming more into a myth, no longer considered history to be told. Things were calm but...

Narinder noticed something that deeply worried him. Things were not fair between him and his brothers...

Never say his name.

Shamura, Kallamar, Heket and Leshy... They were loved, adored by the mortals.

Narinder?.... Narinder was feared. Every mithology in this world has always being a little to afraid to even speak the name of the gods of death outloud, fearing them more than they loved them. Think of Hades.

"The Greek god Hades was the lord of the underworld, which actually gave him more authority over maintaining the balance of the universe than nearly any other deity. Still, the Greeks greatly feared him and saw it as unlucky to draw his attention. To avoid saying his name, they often used epithets for Hades instead."

It wouldn't be to crazy to think Narinder was given a similar treatment by the mortals, considering HE was the BISHOP OF DEATH.

For Lamb sake, he's literally the ONLY BISHOP WHO USES A VEIL. He was so freaking feared, mortals couldn't even bare to see his face.

It must be hard, seeing your brother be showered in adoration, love, affections, and prays that elevate their names. While all you receive is fear, wails, and prayers that beg to keep you away...

It must be hard, to be a god. And yet, feel as unloved as you once did, when you were nothing but a little kid.

This, my brothers in Lamb. This is what incited that first spark of jealosy, that would later develop into something nastier, that would end in the fall of the Old Faith all together.

End of the Part 1.

That's it for the first part of this character analysis!! Bare with me because part 2 will come very soon!! Your bovine brother in lamb says bye for now!

[bookish-bogwitch]

Thank you @roomwithanopenfire, @rimeswithpurple, @blackberrysummerblog, @nausikaaa, @larkral,

@hushed-chorus, @alexalexinii, @monbons, @whatevertheweather, @run-for-chamo-miles,

@artsyunderstudy, @mooncello, @brilla-brilla-estrellita, @forabeatofadrum, and @aristocratic-otter for the tags over the past few weeks. I've had a crazy month (90% in crazy a good way) and too frazzled to come up with my own WIP posts, but have enjoyed reading yours and being included.

Here are six ten moody little sentence from Chapter 11 of Basil Pitch's Diary. (In case you missed it, I posted Ch. 10, September, a few weeks ago, then fled the country.) Baz is hanging in in Niall and Dev's room:

The last time I was here with Niall, he’d told me to hold out for more than ear scritches and the occasional carrot. Now we sat on his bed with a chessboard between us. “Baz,” Niall said quietly. “What are you doing?”  “Beating you.” I moved my queen to menace his remaining bishop. “With Snow, I mean.” Niall did that thing where the rook and king hop around, which shouldn’t be allowed, and I realized he’d won. Again. Somewhere, in a parallel universe, there is a me who grew up with someone to play against, demolishing a Niall who never went to math camp.

Below the cut: musing, a posting plan, and more tags.

Musing: I've actually written a ton since the last chapter even though I've been AWOL, but for a while no matter what I wrote, Baz felt out of character. I'd write a scene, like it, and then think "but why is he doing this?" Then I'd rewrite with Baz behaving completely differently, and that also felt OOC.

I worried that I'd somehow doomed myself with inconsistent characterization, but then I figured it out: Baz at this point is deeply inconsistent. He presents himself to the world one way, he tells the reader / himself that he's something else, and deep down he's a secret third thing. And sometimes his masks slip.

To some extent this is every unreliable narrator. But boyo has REALLY tangled himself up at this point. Something's gotta give. Until it does--which it will, soon--I have to be very clear in my mind, even if Baz isn't, about which Baz is driving the Baz at any given moment.

A lot of you can do that sort of thing intuitively. I can't. So I've been building this out (showing you just the headers b/c spoilers):

This might stultify some (most?) of you. For me, though, it's freeing. When my brain isn't trying to keep track of everything, my imagination can unfurl.

"'Everything'?" you ask. "This isn't that plotty a fic." It's not, but it's already 2.5x longer than anything else I've written, which means developing skills I haven't needed before. Anyway, my BPD chart and I are having fun. We're very happy together.

Posting Plan

I pushed myself to get Ch. 10 up before leaving home for three weeks, because Ch. 9 had ended on such a wretched note. While I was happy to have gotten it up, I didn't love the self-imposed time crunch (though betas @cutestkilla, @facewithoutheart, and @thewholelemon were fuckin' heroes). Feeling rushed had me stressing and second-guessing choices that were probably fine.

My plan now is to pause updates until I have at least a very rough first draft of the final chapter, then post it all at regular intervals. I know a longish pause means some folks who'd been reading along will wait until it's complete, if they return at all. To those folks--sorry, and I get it, and thank you for reading in the first place, and I love you.

Wait, River, I must know

How do you pronounce Shamura? Their name?

For the longest time I had thought it was [Sham-mur-ah], but after hearing in "PESTILENCE" that their name was pronounced [Sha-mor-rah] instead I'm not sure

I know it wouldn't bother many people but to me, being accurate is absolute in my mind, as correct as possible, and as you too, are a devoted Shamura follower, I must inqcuire,

How do you pronounce the almighty God's name?

VERY GOOD QUESTION, THE BISHOP NAMES HAVE HAUNTED ME SINCE I FIRST PLAYED THE GAME. For shamura, I'm pretty sure I've been pronouncing it like how they say it in pestilence? "shuh-murr-uh" is the best spelling I'm able to come up with but there's a lot going on in the song so I'm not able to hear it that clearly. I remember when pestilence dropped, I was kinda bewildered by the fact I'd heard their name spoken out loud in an official piece of cotl media because I had NO IDEA if I was saying it right this whole time.

I've also heard "shammer-uh" and "shah-moo-ruh" so I have no idea. The other bishops have pretty straightforward names that can be traced to a source pretty easily so it's really weird that they made sham's name so cryptic, this is why I project my culture onto them cause I literally have no idea what they're supposed to be lmao. I've seen someone say it's a variation of an old akkadian or hebrew word I think?? Maybe the devs have clarified it somewhere but I just don't keep up with that kind of thing so idk

edit: the word I was thinking of was "shamar" and that's gotta be the right one because the definition of it is to protect, guard, watch over, that kinda thing which is VERY shamura tbh

[bamsara]

I’m crediting you with my cult of the lamb obsession. I’ve had the game for a day and I can’t put it down. All my cult followers will now be named Kevin. All👏of👏them👏

dev i am so happy you're getting into cotl but i must ask why kevin and are you including the bishops im skdghlsdhglksdhl

[cultoftheswag]

I'm in a very vunerable part of my life, and funny enough , this has caused a light paranoid resurgence in my fear of being indoctornated into a cult , somehow , someday. I'm not making this post to talk about personal fears but , in combination with cotl popping off on tumblr recently, i think it's good for everyone active in a fandom space to take a step back and actually briefly educate themselves on the true horrors of what we mainstream define as a "cult" and sometimes critically examine how fandom interprets(or misnterprets) canon depictions of cult hierarchies in game.

No one has to post a clear cut, professional layed out timeline to properly potray how awful their lamb/ocs are. This is also not an indirect attack to anyone who has ever drawn fluff/shipping content (stories are multifacated and dynamic and including "soft" character interactions doesn't mean the significance of story's message is watered down/romanticized. Quite the opposite , variety makes for a more impactful story). It also no one's responsibilty to create graphic horror content . Regardless , if you are going to be using canon material to tell you own story , i think it's important for all of us to remind ourselves that , at the end of the day, this is a cult we are speaking of- a higly totalitarian group that strips people off their humanity and dignity for the personal advantage of one person/group of people.

Cotl as a game is kind of light hearted with a few gap horror elements presented through a satyrical lense so by extension i don't expect people to fully delve into hardcore, realistic potrayals of cult life. I do think though it is important to keep in mind while making headcanons , ficlets,all kinds of transformative content,etc ,if you are going to attempt to delve deeper into worldbuilding , to make sure of potraying , at least partially, that a lot of fucked up things go down in Cult of the lamb, even if you're lamb isn't as evil as they could be in the game. Sermons , strick dress codes, rituals , dancing circles , re-education- all of those things are actual tactics used by real cults/high control groups to indoctornate and take advantage of people. The devs specifically researched about real cults and their workings for inspiration for the game. Under those circumstances the lamb and the bishops will always be inherently abusive people.

[feith-rikya]

All these characters are from an RPG campaign called; Gehenna's Gates, set in the world of "Vampire The Masquerade".

Here Some of our Sabbath dudes! they are not really part of the main coterie, some of them have been enemies and some of them became friends and allies.

The main big fella is Samuel Sharabi a ravnos that became Archibishp and then Justicar thanks to Jan.

The rest is Sulyvahn's Black Hand, a squad of very strong people where Naya and Johnny became our freinds.

(Also Dev is an ex-sabbath bishop, he went to the camarilla eraly on in the campaign)

Then we have The Ebony Tower! a squad of outcasts and misfits even for the sabbath. Too strong to be killed, too dangerous to be kept around. But Angela Ricci will have what she wants one day.
