another #monstober piece knocked out of the park.

"hound" prompt. i went with the hound of tindalos, because i realized i'd encountered the concept before i even knew about h.p. lovecraft lol. i played...what...shadow hearts covenant? and one of the dog folk that blanca can talk to is a magic meat thing. man, i need to play some more shadow hearts. been missing it, even more now since the funding and announcement of penny blood. ehyeeee~

anyways, a mishmash between the one in shadow hearts and the main concept of the hound in lovecraft lore. here's hoping i can bang out the rest before the year's done.

hound /hound/

noun a dog of a breed used for hunting, especially one able to track by scent.

verb harass, persecute, or pursue relentlessly. "his opponents used the allegations to hound him out of office"

Pursuer of Tindalos. huh. that also works. 'cuz that aint a dog. you get it.

There are only two real memelords in the multiverse, but Tindalos isn't one of them.

Another one of this twitter trends I participated in, this time is @gooompy's "Turn a regular pokemon into an Ultra Beast and/or Turn an Ultra Beast into a regular pokemon" and I did both

UB-ANGULAR (Dark/Psychic) The Extradimensional Hound pokemon It is based on the "Hounds of Tindalos", extradimensional creatures from the Lovecraftian mythos that are said to inhabit the "angles" of the universe while us humans inhabit the "curves", and can materialize at any point in time and space to hunt their prey. This pokemon is extremely fast due to its nimble, angular body, and more so thanks to its ability to create rifts in reality to enter in and out of our dimension at will. GUZZLORD (Dark/Dragon) The Gluttonous pokemon This voracious dragon is constantly eating anything that comes into its path, using its jaw-like claws to shred things into more easily digestable pieces. If it finds something that it cannot eat, it will destroy it using its power mace-like tail. Despite its wings looking too small when compared to its massive size, this pokemon can still fly, although very slowly and not for too much time.

I've had it in my head recently that I want to try and make a visual novel so I'm playing around with how I want to draw the hounds of tindalos. Here's a first pass.

Some design notes - If the hounds exist in "angular" time, I like the idea of them being crystalline or inorganic, since flesh is nothing but curves -If crystalline, then they can be translucent, both adding to the otherworldly vibe and making them (literally) harder to perceive. Like Barreleye fish, or well-fed mosquitos -I can probably make them look even weirder

#hounds of tindalos #monster #monster design #weird dog #I might try and push the mosquito idea more with the limb shape #since right now I think it looks a little too much like a dog #but i do like the borzoi/greyhound silhouette

I'm like if the Hounds of Tindalos were a girl

Lovecraftian Influence in ORV (part 2):

Disclaimer: idk if all the parallels are intentional; I'm not an expert on Lovecraft; this is defo not going to contain all the stuff in detail or even all the stuff coz like I said, I ain't an expert 1. Textual parallels:

Both ORV & Lovecraftian lore emphasize the cyclical nature of time and existence. In ORV, Dokja's regressions and the ever-repeating scenarios of "Ways of Survival" mirror the cyclical dreams of Azathoth. Similarly, Lovecraft's stories often feature ancient entities trapped in endless cycles of slumber and awakening.

The motif of uncaring gods and the dangers of seeking ultimate knowledge is central to both Lovecraftian mythos and ORV.

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. - H.P. Lovecraft

In the mythos, Yog-Sothoth embodies the totality of time and space, existing outside our linear perception. It has the ability to manipulate time in non-linear ways, creating alternate realities and diverging timelines. Imagine a tapestry of time, and Yog-Sothoth meticulously snipping sections and reconnecting them in impossible geometries, birthing new worlds and realities into existence. Similar is ORV's "square circle". Imagine a perfect circle, representing a closed timeline, yet simultaneously containing its own square corners, moments of choice and potential divergence.

Crawling Chaos(one of the names of Nyarlathotep) is directly mentioned in ORV: (look at the phrasing- myths that were prototype of Ways of Survival)

Character parallels:

Most Ancient Dream & Azathoth: This one's a no-brainer.

Both are dreaming entities who shape reality without conscious intent- while Azathoth is a blind god who's unconsciously dreaming up the universe & MAD is a traumatized child who's dreaming up stories as a coping mechanism.

The "idiot god" aspect of Azathoth resonates with MAD too. Both are unaware or atleast have a lack of choice/control. Their dreams & reality itself are in a continuous loop

The "uncaring god" aspect of Azathoth resonates with the MAD's desire for new stories rather than any sense of morality or concern for its creations.

2. Nyarlathotep & Secretive Plotter:

Nyarlathotep is said to be the puppet/avatar of Azathoth while YJH/Secretive Plotter is labeled as the puppet of MAD.

Worldline Jumpers

All black ensemble (silly comparison ik)

Mocking contempt for their "masters"

Nyarlathotep views humanity as playthings, pawns in his game. He's often described as a harbinger of apocalypse, acts on an enigmatic agenda seemingly tied to chaos and destruction. While Secretive Plotter's goal was to meet-kill MAD & end the cycle of regressions once & for all through an apocalypse.

3. The Hounds of Tindalos:

The Hounds of Tindalos are creatures created by Frank Belknap Long and later incorporated into the Cthulhu Mythos. Both the names of Hounds of Tindalos & Hounds Chasing After the Abyss have been mentioned in the text. So, it's a direct reference.

4. Yog-Sothoth the gatekeeper & Fourth Wall+Dokkaebi King

5. Shub-Niggurath & tls123/1863hsy: disclaimer: Lovecraft's work is unfortunately riddled with racist and xenophobic imagery and tropes, particularly regarding Shub-Niggurath.

Shub-Niggurath is said to be the "Mother of All Gods" & we can compare tls123 to her in the same vein as tls123 is the author of TWSA while 1864hsy is the author(or co-author) of ORV. "tls" represents the Korean word for "god" as the keys for T, L, and S correspond to the letters ㅅ, ㅣ, and ㄴ on the Korean keyboard. => tls123 is the author-god of the universe

(tls123 is also kinda similar to Azathoth in having no power over their creations)

6. Randolph Carter & the 0th YJH: Randolph Carter is a recurring character in many stories from Lovecraft's Dream Cycle series. He also features in an unfinished short story called "Azathoth". In Azathoth, Randalph travels through space and time in his dream-form, and is drawn to the nighted throne of the far daemon-sultan Azathoth, the blind idiot god who rules over chaos and creation. Like, Randalph, 0th YJH chooses to regress because he wants to meet MAD

...and that's it for now. I'll add more if I remember. Constructive feedback is welcome but keep in mind: I'm no expert & also a human behind the keyboard.
