This may have already been said, especially since I just caught up, but do we think Mary Keay was also inspired/In the same school of thought as Oscar Jarrett? Especially since she was tatted all over and forcibly tattooed Gerry with the eyes. ESPECIALLY because those eyes have protective properties. Anyway.

Hello Magnus protocol community,

I was looking through all of the past transcripts trying to find a statement that mentioned tattoos or the specific names of these ppl/organization?:

And I couldn't find anything. Maybe this is a statement read and not recorded? Anyone got any theories I'd love to hear! Oscar Jarrett tattoo why do you sound familiar... Sutherland MacDonald who what are you...

[archivetourguide]

Chewing on my enclosure thinking about how the TMP universe is set up and what the FUCK this world's version of the entities are/when the TMA entities crossed over.

That whole encounter with Newton was obviously a manifestation of greater alchemy, but was it also an olde timey manifestation of the stranger, given how WRONG the statement giver found everything (given all his talk about good reason, and being unnerved about the dog escaping it's place in the godly hierarchy) ?

Oscar Jarrett's tattoos are likewise giving me all sorts of things to think about.

The sun symbol burning a guy alive makes sense on the surface but if you know anything about alchemy you'd know that the symbol of the sun (specifically the one with the dot in the middle) is a symbol of gold, NOT the process of calcination. I'm mostly discounting desolation because despite the burning the iconography just feels wrong.

The ship tattoo is free of obvious alchemical symbols and seems almost...infectious, making the groundworks boss obsessed and reverent just by looking at it, while disappearing the coroner and possibly the government contact aswell. The subject matter is very entity-ish (flip a coin for vast or buried, I'm leaning the latter for how often "closer" is mentioned) but that raises the question of WHEN the TMA entities crossed over into the TMP-verse.

These tattoos are almost like Leitner books, carrying power that threatens to devour most, but empowers those individuals who happen to align with them (the artist and the paintbrush). Difference being that Leitner didn't WRITE anything in his library, and Oscar Jarrett (and now inksoul) seems to be handing out different flavors of horror to each individual.

So, question: going forward, do we call any and all magic tattoos 'oscars' or 'jarretts'? Or maybe 'OJs'? What are we thinking?

[devouringyourson]

all of us strangers wasn't quite as tight as I wanted it to be (felt a bit like it would be better as a stage play?) but the performances were definitely oscar worthy they were so above and beyond the actual film!!! that and may december were such obvious snubs

Ink5oullll,, who are you,,, what are you doing with that dead body,,, what is an Oscar Jarrett,,, who is Sutherland MacDonald,,,

Also saw that post where someone noticed audio distortions whenever people are lying and i really noticed it this time,,, i wonder what it meannssss

[cirrus-grey]

Any old Archives fans remember that theory from late S3 that Gertrude had put some kind of anti-Corruption spell on her, and that was why her skin was still in good enough condition for Nikola to wear even after being buried for so long?

Anyway. I think she had an Oscar Jarrett tattoo.

[wildgeese98]

Ok so I did a bit of very cursory googling.

I couldn't find anyone notable or related to tattoos named Oscar Jarrett.

Sutherland MacDonald was a real guy. He was a prominent English tattoo artist in the late 19th early 20th century. Apparently the first person to have a dedicated tattoo studio in England.

However, one of the people in the “see also” section of his Wikipedia page is a guy called George Burchett. He was also a tattoo artist in London at the same time as MacDonald. Seems like he was a bit of a celebrity and tattooed a lot of rich people and royalty.

Also he was from a seaside town, Brighton, and joined the Navy at 13, so it seems like Oscar Jarrett could be based on this guy. Interested to see if we'll hear about him again.

I'm really digging the creepy tattoos. My big question from This case is, what did Ink5oul want the tattoo for? Obviously it's both powerful and historically significant, but what exactly are they going to do with it? Copy it? Cut it off the corpse and hang it on the wall? Sew it onto their own body? I'm intrigued. I can't wait to hear from Ink5oul again.

Alchemy thoughts on episode 20!

The tattoo of the sun Ink5oul mentions "a sun with a black dot made of intricate patterns" means Oscar Jarrett probably incorporated alchemical symbol of the sun (☉) into the design. Emphasis on the tattoo being yellow makes me think it was sulfur related, although sun was a Deckname for gold (with the moon being silver), in the sulfur-mercury theory it was sometimes associated with sulfur (with the moon representing mercury). Sulfur as some of my fellow occultism and catholic demonology fans know is associated with hell (as brimstone in fire-and-brimstone) and generally associated with fire in common understanding of the element (despite not being the most volatile one of them).

As for the "intricate pattern" part? Hard to say. Alchemists in general liked the infinite looping symbols as they represented cycle of the elements in nature (ouroboros) and the infinite expansion of knowledge, without more detail it could be a random pattern or some type of transmutation circle, will have to see if we ever get something more descriptive on the tattoo designs.

Went back to "Making Adjustments" too to see what references were made there to symbols and Daria's tattoo was also ridden with symbols she said were unknown to her, so we can assume putting alchemical symbols into the tattoo is required to make it work.

Case files 11.01

what I think happened in:

Case 11.01, the case of "Ink in the Water" or "Dead men tell no tales."

Today we visit the old Padstow cemetery in Cornwell. Sat at the very edge of the cliffs, just a kilometre or two away from town of Padstow, the place offers breathtaking view of the Atlantic Ocean, surely appreciated by the many sailors of old interred here. Unlike its less scenic sister cemetery located off Newquay Road, this old burial ground hasn't seen any burials since beginning of 20th century, but until recently remained a local landmark.

The cliff erosion that had been slowly eating up the space over the years has finally reached the stage where integrity of the cemetery was threatened*, and Cornwall Council decided to relocate all dearly departed to a more secure quarters at Newquay. The job was appointed to a crew of local lads led by Gordon Alan Johnson, under supervision of David [last name unknown], a medical examiner. They regularly reported by email to Alison Leshi of the Cornwall Council.

The works started in the first days of 2020 (yikes) and progressed with little delay. It was determined that they could use heavy machinery everywhere except the patch nearest to the cliff edge, but Gordie was confident that they'd manage those last few graves just fine with shovels.

All was well for about a week, until January 12, when a suspiciously well preserved body was uncovered. An artful rendition of a sailing ship covered the dead man's back, and the fact that it remained intact and pristine raised concerns that it was, possibly, a modern-day murder victim buried on the sly.

While the controversial cadaver was carted off for closer scrutiny, Gordie and his crew were left to care for unconfirmed crime scene. ($)

The news must have spread, because within a day or two a curious individual came by. They didn't give their name, but we know them as Ink5oul. They apparently had somehow** identified the dead man's tattoo as work of Oscar Jarrett, (connected to Sutherland Macdonald)***, and wanted to take a look. They visited cemetery first, then started hanging around the examiner's office. Let's leave them there for now and go back to two local man who already did have a peek at the inked masterpiece

Around the time when the tatted body was uncovered, Gordie started noticing the sound of the waves getting… louder. Or maybe closer. So close he could even hear them in his dreams. He started re-examining photographs of the tattoo left by David and at some point his interpretation of the scene changed. At first glance it seemed hopeful, but now he saw that the sun was setting on the voyage, and there was something sinister lurking beneath the waves, giving chase. The waves kept getting louder, and Gordie so desperately wanted to know, what was hiding in the water?

Dr. David, meanwhile, had not just pictures, but the og tattooed body all to himself, and was in no hurry to let anyone else have it. We don't know what he heard or saw or dreamt when examining the ink, but we know how it ended. On January 15th David walked out to the cliffs and threw himself into the ocean below. His body hasn't been recovered. It's all right, though. The deep will care for his bones.

Few days later, on January 19/20, there was what appeared to be a break in at the examiner's office, and the contentious body disappeared****. Good ol' Gordie swore up and down that it wasn't him, and his frequent presence at the scene was just due to his fervent wish to see the corpse he was responsible for. He pointed fingers at Ink5oul and vowed to recover the body from them or die and kill trying.

Shortly thereafter his email account was deactivated/deleted. Gordie's final fate remains unknown*****.

Final thoughts:

*A case could be made that the cemetery was at risk of toppling into the sea, because the sea was actively trying to get to The Body. This man belonged to the sea, not the earth, and was clearly marked as such. The sea was not having any of this ‘burial’ nonsense.

** I wonder how Ink5oul knew to come here. Did local news run the story of halted exhumations, and showed pictures of the tattooed body? Or did Ink5oul feel a great disturbance in the ink when the body was dug up?

*** What is the 'thing' with OJ and SM? Since Sutherland Macdonald (1860–1942) was a known tattoo artist irl, I think that Oscar Jarrett was either his competitor, student, or both. Also an og tattoo magic man.

**** Was there really a break in, or was it actually a break out? While it is believable that Ink5oul or other fan of OJ spirited the body away for worship or study, it is equally possible the 'body', freed from the confines of the grave, heard the call of the sea, woke up and walked out all on its own. Who knows, maybe we'll meet it somewhere down the line.

*****That only leaves the question, what happened to our friend Gordie? We know from Daria's case that Ink5oul was still operating in 2022, so presumably they didn't get killed or arrested in 2020. If Gordie indeed tried to confront them, it didn’t go in his favour. Maybe he died right there, in a small motel room, at the hands of a tattoo artist who was more than they seemed. Or maybe, cursing and desperate, he found himself walking toward the cliffs, irresistibly drawn by the call of the waves. Maybe he got to find out what was waiting in the water.
