[cursed-40k-thoughts]

while still the imperiums fault, i find the old idea that the light of the astronomicon attracted the nids much more compelling, the emperor himself once more leading the doom to his imperium

The Emperor creating a giant, golden night light that attracts space moths is also funny, yeah

Introducing... Malic! My lil' goat/lamb thing! The halo isn't actually part of his design btw I just added that for this art piece :D

Ight lore dump under cut 'cause I have A LOT of lore about this lil' guy already

In an alternate universe parallel to Darcy's, there are four bishops: Maple the Rosy Maple Moth of Cherry Meadows (that universe's Darkwood) (she's the goddess of order), Bes the Lavender Axolotl of Eukaryota (that universe's version of Anura) (he's the god of the harvest), Tako the Giant Pacific Octopus of High Dive (that universe's version of Anchordeep) (she's the goddess of health), and Tox the Emperor Scorpion of Starkiss Sands (they're the god of peace). These bishops are 4 out of 5 siblings. What happened to the fifth? Sera (a golden retriever), the goddess of life (Nardiner's counterpart) accidentally sealed herself in some strange realm. According to a prophecy, one lamb (or goat) can enter this strange realm and save the goddess of life. In order to be deemed worthy, they must prove to the bishops they are a worthy warrior. After going through every lamb and goat in the land, with all of them dying during the trials, only one remained: Malic, a goat that's said to have angel's blood in him. After finding an odd-looking crown on the steps of what used to be the entrance to Sera's domain, Malic gained new powers, however he used them for evil at first. Instead of approaching the trials as the bishops first intended (by just knocking out enemies and fighting the bishops until they deemed you worthy of progressing), Malic decided to reign hell upon these other realms, mostly because he was mad about the bishops making his kind do these stupid trials. However, it isn't until Malic encounters Tox towards the end of his journey that he decides to use his powers for good. After being deemed strong enough to enter Sera's prison, Malic discovers he has Sera's crown and it has been influencing him to be super violent. Why? Well, the crown is still connected to Sera and the realm was corrupting her, and in turn was also corrupting the crown. So, in order to save Sera and free her from the realm, Malic has to fight Sera. And so he does. Sera is saved, her prison destroyed, and she revives her fallen siblings. Everything is happy-go-lucky, at least until some time before Darcy's execution in their universe. When Darcy is killed for the first time, Malic's crown gets all weird and he's transported to Darcy's universe. Seeing Darcy after being revived kind of made Malic grow interested in Darcy's journey, so he followed them on their crusades in secret. It isn't until a few months after the events of Sins of the Flesh that Malic decides to actually step into Darcy's narrative by saving them from certain ass whoopin'...

I'll go more in detail about Malic whenever I make his toyhouse page but yeah that's Malic :D

Crusade Week 6

---//Astropathic-Transmission//---

---//Origin: Planetary Governer Guyus Luther Goruros Bahara VII//---

The defenses stand for yet another day. The Heralds of the Chalice have once again pushed back the Kisun'sha'ea sept, and the honorable lady Cassian has led the venerable Imperial Knights to victory against the forces of the ruinous powers.

As of yet no skirmishes have been happening between our enemies, which worries me as I'm beginning to suspect collusion between them may be at play.

Additionally I'm afraid I have to report that two massive neverborn have been reported by our Knight defenders. They mentioned them being massive things, one bloated and grotesque, the other born aloft on giant moth wings with a massive scythe. May the Emperor preserve us.

This is grave news for our people, my friend, I pray your upcoming audience with the High Lords goes favorably, for if not, I'm afraid we aren't far from being doomed.

---//Astropathic-Transmission End//---

I did not manage to get photos of the other two matches played, due to our necromunda campaign. However, the Guard player with the Perlian themed guard killed it this week, and the Imperial knights managed to rack up the 2nd loss for one of the better ranked 40k players in the area.

i wanna get some moth cocoons again but cant decide, which should i get?

[yandere-writer-momo]

I've seen that it's okay to throw weird ideas in here.

Imagine some of Baki's characters as insect-like creatures (spiders or mantises? Basically insects with females eating males) Male insects bring food to the female as an offering and a chance not to be eaten. I find it funny that Baki's insect-like characters, wanting to mate with the human reader, not knowing how human mating occurs, but they are afraid, and bring her lots of food. So that she gets full and they can fuck in peace.

Or another point to this, if the food offering wasn't there and they just fucked? Insect! character wakes up, in the arms of the reader, and frightened, waiting to be eaten. The character is greatly relieved and happy when he learns from the reader that he will not be eaten before or after sex

I love ‘weird’ ideas. Adore them. Live for them. ❤️🩷

But if they found out they could mate with human reader without the repercussions? Poor little human reader would never be left alone 😭

Also! Here’s what I think the Baki boys would be as Bugs:

Katou: Cockroach (duh)

Hanayama: Rose hair tarantula

Katsumi: Golden ringed dragonfly

Jack: Emperor scorpion

Baki: Jumping spider

Retsu: Orchid mantis

Sukune: Goliath bird eater tarantula

Suedou: Easter lubber grasshopper

Kureha: Rosy Maple moth

Kosho: Death’s head hawkmoth

Oliva: Stag beetle

Yujiro: Hercules beetle

Shibukawa: Bullet Ant

Kozue: Great purple emperor butterfly

Doppo: Japanese giant hornet

Some more info about Malic's universe's bishops (and Nardiner... I guess?).

General info about these bishops before I go in depth about each individual bishop:

Bishops Maple, Bes, Tako, and Tox are siblings that rule over their respective domains in the Land of New Hope (Malic's version of the Land of the Old Faith). Originally, there was five of them, but their middle sister, Sera, the goddess of life, ended up doing something that sealed her and everyone in her land into a strange realm that corrupts her and everyone inside of it. No mortals, not even the other bishops, can enter, except for animals part of the family Bovidae (specifically only sheep and goats because of how valuable they are in sacrifices). In their despiration, the bishops created a new law: all goats and sheep must go through each of the bishops' land and prove that they are strong enough to enter Sera's prison (whoever got through all the bishops' lands first would be deemed the strongest). But eventually, all the goats and sheep fell. All except for one: Malic, who found Sera's (corrupted) crown and decided to make the bishops pay for making his kind go through their trials.

Maple

Species: Rosy Maple Moth

Domain: Cherry Meadows

she/her

goddess of order

youngest bishop

her duties involve limiting wrongdoings committed in the Land of New Hope, making sure each of the bishops' followers have the resources they need to survive, and ensuring there isn't too much of one thing if it isn't nessisary. she also disiplines those who go against her and her siblings' rule.

tests those who fight her on their hand-to-hand combat skills

uptight, doesn't really want to use the full extent of her power in fear of it causing unwanted chaos, and a bit of a perfectionist

Bes

Species: Lavender Axolotl

Domain: Eukaryota

he/him

god of the harvest

second youngest bishop

his duties include creating, growing, and tending to crops & delivering them to his siblings' land if they need food

tests those who fight him on their melee weapon combat skills

big guy with a big heart, very welcoming towards new followers, acts like a father figure to his followers, doesn't quite like fighting but he will if he must and he won't hold back

Tako

Species: Giant Pacific Octopus

Domain: High Dive

she/they

goddess of health

second oldest bishop

their duties include finding cures to illnesses so her siblings can heal their followers without her help, using their ablities to heal her own followers, and insuring that people across the Land of New Hope have easy access to health care

tests those who fight them with their long distance fighting skills (basically they use a lot of long range weaponry to attack their opponents and those who fight her have to use their resources to try to take her down)

a skilled fighter who isn't afraid to get their tentacles dirty. although her duties involve keeping her followers healthy, they do test their cures on followers & sometimes end up causing them to feel worse than they originally did.

Tox

Species: Emperor Scorpion

Domain: Starkiss Sands

they/them

god of peace

oldest bishop

their duties involve resolving conflicts in the Land of New Hope and overall just keeping people happy

tests those who fight them on how they'd deal with magic attacks & sees how skilled followers are at using said attacks

not the sharpest tool in the shed but they do know how to entertain ther followers and knows a decent amount of things regarding law & how to resolve conflict (at least enough to deem themselves worthy of being a bishop). they can get carried away with their magic attacks because of the rush they give them

Sera

Species: Golden Retriever

Domain: Skyfall (formerly), Voided Hollows (a corrupted version of Skyfall)

she/her

goddess of life

her duties included determining when one's life started & ended and observing the lives of followers (if things got out of whack in someone's life she'd step in to get them back on track)

has become a shell of her former self in Voided Hollows, becoming cruel and ending the lives of those who were in Voided Hollows with her whenever they didn't please her

since her release from Voided Hollows, Sera no longer has a domain of her own, but happily helped Malic manage his village of loyal followers for him while he was on crusades before he was transported to Darcy's universe
