[namelessjhoulette]

I just want to find my crew of people who will let me take a few puffs of *LEGAL* weed and let me go on my hyperfixation rants about Ghost lore and lyrical interpretations and breakdown.

Bonus points if you will also get as enthusiastic and share your own thesis length ideas because you also get it. 😆

Emeritus Bloodline Headcannons

╰┈ ‧₊˚ ☾. ⋅ ・・・・———-────°˖✧

Ok, so I’ve been revisiting my cork-board of theories and headcannons and decided to revisit my theories on the Emeritus Bloodline, starting with Nihil and workings through his sons. Most of these are headcannons but I will bring up evidence when needed!

Small trigger warnings for: Cheating because Nihil is a dumbass (affectionate…kinda) and minor spoilers to the Sister Imperator Comic!

Papa Nihil Emeritus

So, we still don’t know that much about Nihil’s past but we do know he is part of the bloodline. We know he definitely wasn’t raised in the Ministry, as we see in the Dance Macabre music video. He and a unnamed friend are lured to a party and after a quick human sacrifice, Nihil met Sister and the two started their beautiful but tragic relationship.

I believe that Nihil is a precautionary heir to the Emeritus Bloodline. A Prime Mover Baby. I just find it strange that he had to be lured to a party for him to unlock his Infernal Eye (with some help from Sister’s left hook) I can only see this scenario playing out if Nihil’s mother fled from the Ministry for whatever reason. It could be to give him a normal life, or she was excommunicated from the Ministry. I like to think it was to give him a normal life.

Either way, Nihil is brought back to the Ministry, taking his title as Papa and learning of his family lineage. I can imagine he was raised in the LA area, growing up with dreams of stardom and so, pulled some strings and created the Ghost Project.

Papa Primo Emeritus I

Primo is the eldest son of Papa Nihil and was originally thought to be Nihil’s and Sister’s firstborn. The truth of that statement is the Ministry’s best kept secret. Surprise to no one, Primo isn’t Sister’s. In the early years of Sister’s and Nihil’s relationship, they wanted to start a family but due to some… events from the Sister Imperator Comic, Tobias so lovingly gave us (holy shit man I gasped so loudly at that page) they were having trouble conceiving.

Nihil’s intentions were good, but that loveblind himbo was never good with communication. He wanted to surprise Sister with a surrogate, but he didn’t choose just any sister of sin. He chose a ghoulette. No one knows who they were or where they went or came from, all they know is that Primo came from her and the first cracks of Sister’s and Nihil’s relationship started to form.

I like to think that this is where Primo get’s his cryptic behaviors from, as well as his talent with the dark arts. He’s the Ministry’s first known human-ghoul hybrid. Primo doesn’t know the truth, believing Sister is his mother. His brothers don’t know either.

⁺‧₊˚ ཐི⋆ 🜂 ⋆ཋྀ ˚₊‧⁺

Papa Secondo Emeritus II

Nihil just fucked up with Secondo. Well, more than the normal fuck up. Secondo was a surprise from Nihil’s first human scandal. Nihil doesn’t remember who the mother is, his son being dropped off at the Ministry months after his first and possibly only tour. To say Sister was pissed would be an understatement.

I don’t think Secondo came from the cheating at the Whiskey-a-Go-Go. We saw that there was nothing but a kiss since right after that, we see Nihil chase after Sister in the animated Mary on a Cross video. No, that incident was one of the many straws that broke the camel’s back.

Secondo knows he isn’t Sister’s, mostly because he shades no physical traits with her. He did pick some personality traits from being raised by her though, mainly the anger and vengefulness.

⁺‧₊˚ ཐི⋆ 𝓠 ⋆ཋྀ ˚₊‧⁺

Papa Terzo Emeritus III

Oh if you thought it was just Sister who was mad at Nihil, think again. The Clergy was pissed at him too. They didn’t know he cheated on Sister. The Clergy knew that Primo isn’t all human so arranged a Prime Mover for Nihil. Three months after the surprise that was Secondo, here comes Terzo.

Sister was kinda checked out at this point, being near her limit with Nihil and not trusting herself with the newest Emeritus, she left most of the raising to Nihil’s Prime Mover and his ghoulette, who just so happened to be the mother of a certain ghoul (coughomegacough)

Terzo knows his a Prime Mover baby and is very self conscious of it, often trying to prove to not only the Clergy and Sister, but to himself that he’s worthy of the title that came with his bloodline. He and Sister have a very, very strained relationship. He couldn’t care less about Nihil, inheriting his father’s rebellious and dreamer mind.

Papa Frater Imperator Copia Emeritus IV

Who can forget dear ol’ rat boy? Sister and Nihil’s only son. Or thats what he believes. Copia wasn’t raised by Sister, or Nihil. He was given up to the Ministry to be raised with the other children they care for. Sister wasn’t in the best state, for obvious reasons, and felt this was the best decision for her son.

He grew up never knowing of his bloodline. He was taught to cover his left eye as a child, being told that he had a bad eye that was sensitive to light. Though he grew up around kids his age, he was always by himself, being too odd to fit in. He found company with the rats of the Ministry.

It was when Copia was an adult that he learned he was related to Sister and Nihil. He tries to not let it bother him too much, but still harbors a bit of resentment for not being told sooner.

Huh. The Ministry file for Perpetua is kinda weird. I’ll look into that (>ω^)

In the meantime, here’s the link to my old post on the Emeritus Bloodline and how it’s evolved. I hope you all enjoyed!

Perpetua's first day at the Ministry is going to be fun

[robboyblunder]

Remember how I said I couldn't stop thinking about Ghouls? yeah LOL. Anyways, I finally finished my "Ghoul Guide" which is a comic featuring made up lore about summoning nameless ghouls as well as things about them and their roles!

this by no means is comprehensive of everything I've made up for them, but I'm testing the waters with this comic! if it gets enough love I'll make an additional comic about ghoul origins, element types, and maybe even design non-assigned ghoul outfits for each era costume hehe.

ID in ALT text! transcript for comic text under the cut!

Transcript is numbered for each page the text is for!

A rite of passage for becoming “Papa”, It starts with a will and your judgement

A specialized chamber is necessary, 1) to avoid interference 2) to prevent escape.

After all; feral ghouls are raw elements, And to survive, one must tame them.

Each element has a diversity of strengths and rarity / and the first ghoul summoned sets precedent for how a leader is perceived.

Additionally, the first is the personal servant and an important assistant for life; Often times assistance is needed for future summoning, but a limit of 2 maintains respect to show you’re still capable.

However, they must accept you- you must earn their respect, and they only choose if willing. And they are not always willing.

One must be prepared to face Hell itself. To prove one is worthy to take the stage, controlling the devil’s magic is key.

It’s important to roll the dice and summon a variety, but one may only tame as many as the power of their sin allows, which, naturally, varies.

And while they’re loyal as determined by one’s rank… / Remember: The ministry comes first.

Ghoul records broken by copia.

Record: Most ghouls summoned at one time: 8 (10 including past members), Record: Most obedient first summon (for an amateur).

Record: Most powerful summons (2 S-Class ghouls); All consuming Hell Fire (AKA: “Sodo” or “Dew”); Hurricane From Hades (AKA: “Cumulus”); Record: Most elemental offshoots summoned (3). Offshoots of (then lists the symbols for quintessence and fire).

ghoul roles.

Assistance, Fighting.

Personal Guard, And of course: Performing.
