Marțolea is a demonic entity in Romanian mythology.
An impure being in the form of a goat, yet bearing the voice of a human, with short, thick horns, and hooves instead of feet. If need arises, he can shapeshift as he wishes: within the span of a night, he may disguise himself nine times. Most often, however, he chooses to be a charming young man, or a poor old lady in floor-length gowns.
It is known that he lives deep into the mountains and that he is a charming singer. His melody is mournful, able to bring anyone to tears. Merciless with those who break the rules, yet he can be equally generous with whoever follows his word.
He is the patron of Tuesday evenings (marți) and 1st of March, gifting a silver coin to girls who wear the white and red charm.
In some legends, Marțolea appears as a wicked lover who devours the hearts of those he falls for. Within the archetypes of the week, he is the bloodiest patron, which led many to believe Tuesdays are bringers of misfortune.

2023 on short, for me:
- 19 countries
- 39 cities
- 55 bands
- 8 fests
- countless new people and friends
- grandpa got tumors in his lungs
- grandma is developing some dementia
- learned that I like to take photos and to learn about photography
- the job got way worse
- reached an important milestone in my savings
- people crashed into my car.. more than once and I still have to fix it
- I'm stressed as I haven't been in many many years, but at least I dont push people out of my life as a result of it
- went to the first concerts (and fests) outside the country
- developed slight health issues
- evolved from the mindset of I wish to be forever single and I dont see why people get into relationships to it would be cool to share life with someone
- helped my parents quite a lot with housework and renovations
- so many new bands I discovered: Taake, Emperor, Myrkur, The Stone, Darvaza, Vomitory, Nile, Impaled Nazarene, Venflon, Watain, Sleep Token, Psychorepaths, Heaven Grey, Dordeduh, Lorna Shore, Katatonia, Sodomisery, Diabolical, Skalmold, Napalm Death, Ihsahn, Martolea, Doomnezeu, Enslaved, Entombed, Vislig, Ragehammer, Concrete Winds, Snet, Butcher, Whiplash, Bewitched, Perturbator, Carpenter Brut, Xasthur, Striborg, Leviathan, Al-Namrood, Sakis Tolis, Anal Vomit, Zuriaake, Okrutnik, Monoliyth, Hermodr, Ruyan
In 2024 I will take each open issue one by one and fix it :)

Yes. There was also that one. A martolea, I think?
Things that have happened to my party in ONE SINGLE DAY (in-game time):
Vampire hunt. Atticus cursed.
Attempted werewolf hunt. Found that SOMETHING had killed the werewolves like a horror movie villain. Even Sock Police recommended we not tangle with it.
Atticus healed, despite picking a fight with his doctor and insisting that he has no value except as a tool. Yelled at Atticus that he has inherent worth as a human being but I don't think it took.
The Most Awkward Lunch In The History Of Lunches.
Met a bear. Atticus swatted off a cliff.
Accidentally started a forest fire while fighting the bear. Furniture Man and Doc set themselves on fire trying to put it out. Then Furniture Man set me on fire after I had put it out.
Taught Furniture Man and Doc the 'stop, drop and roll' mnemonic.
Sock Police inadvertently caused a landslide while retrieving Atticus.
Doc fell off the landslide while we were climbing over and dragged Atticus and yours truly after him. Atticus concussed by second landslide while climbing back up.
Party attacked by dragon. Self and Sock Police dropped from extremely high altitude. Sock Police broke most of the bones in his lower body preventing me from going splat.
Got a lesson in how to administer first aid to someone who has broken all the bones in his legs. Unfortunately due to injuries Sock Police was unable to speak, so this lesson took the form of an extremely stressful game of Twenty Questions.
Furniture Man fell off a cliff, entirely unprompted.
Furniture Man unexpectedly survived (yay, but stressful because SIR).
Got a hands-on lesson in the philosophical implications of shadows in Terrafell. This involved Sock Police inadvertently flirting shamelessly with character me. Character me is Flustered and Stressed. Sock Police seems to be considering hurling himself off one of the extremely abundant cliffs to escape his mortification.
And we are still not in sight of the city yet.

These two are the iterations of Marțolea, the being who punishes women who dare to work on Thursdays. Wouldn’t that be nice, huh. #sketch #blackwork #illustration #adobefresco #adobedrawing #moldova #romania #folklore #folk #boardgames #tabletopgames #digitaldrawing #czechartist #darkart #martolea (at Sokol, Košický, Slovakia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEljEwDn0O0/?igshid=16z0rhutch2a0

Marțolea is a demonic entity in Romanian mythology. Its gender is unknown, and it can change its shape at will, though it often appears as a goat with a human-like head.
Marțolea dwells high in the mountains, but descends every Tuesday to punish women caught working. It will lure them in with a song, and either disembowel them or kill their husband or child if they have one. Marțolea will reward women who keep Tuesday sacred by leaving eggs and flowers on their doorsteps.

Suggest a spook.

Marțolea
This is a Folk/Black Metal one-man band from Romania. He also contributed with pipe parts to Negură Bunget’s “OM” album.
The musical instrument shown in the picture is a bucium or tulnic and it is a traditonal romanian musical instrument used by shepherds.
