Repostober #2

Way more recent than yesterday’s entry, from November ‘22, this was an illustration collab between Wave and I where they sketched out the concept and I finished up. Ferelith and Vexen from our webcomic The Space Between, No real lore story behind this one, just shits and giggles.

Turns out I am not very good at vending machines because that one took me FOREVER to get right.

There are some ✨special✨ items in that machine, wonder if it still functions…

#webcomic #tsb ferelith #tsb vexen #repostober #I have another vending machine I gotta draw soon #I’m just gonna more or less copy this one #also Feri’s tail got thicker and Vexen’s tail got slenderer so the poor kid can sit the fuck down

while its true that many ppl have tried to recreate vriska in their shows, comics, ect. and will continue to try, none have actually succeeded so far and i think none will tbh.  cause she really is a one of a kind just like all the other hs ladies, but so many ppl boil her down to just being ‘mean but loved’ that they completely ignore like 99% of everything about her that made ppl love her so much :/

your shitty character that has an even shittier redemption arc will never be The Next Vriska. and your first sign of failure was thinking she needed redemption and adoration in the first place.

#other #t talks #like congrats you made a failed copy! next time try to understand the context in which a character you want to copy exists. #vriska was not violent and mean for no reason. you will never succeed until you finally understand this. #okay i need to go draw my ladies now #+feris. ive been meaning to change his design (just the colors mostly) #(he doesnt really have a clear main color. n i need to fix that cause it will drive me insane) #(<- the homestuck instinct to color code my characters)

Thinking about grief thinking about betrayal thinking about anger and helplessness overlapping thinking so so much about dark knight and feri'um and the echo of fray and being so caught up in their thoughts and their fury and their fear and their desperation that they don't realize when sometimes fray answers before they can actually speak, or how sometimes others watch them worried because something is off even in the daytime, or the way they aren't the only shadow skulking the city at dusk, or how it's trying to eat them alive and they've plunged headfirst down the valley towards it

...but people still smile when they offer spare cooking to passersby in the brume who know them well enough to take it, and they still wander around outside and bask in getting a little bit lost, and still end up tugged gently into helping one, two, five things until its late enough to stay for at least a snack and some tales around a table or fire, and

getting lost in the darkness forever was never an option— they can be dark, certainly, they are, and this is fact. But sometimes a lad's heart is made to bleed and heal and try again another day, and the doubts that fill the abyss will not drown them out. And when they can't drag themself up, that's what friends are for

#Blacknovelist talks #novel plays ffxiv #feri'um wihls #nobody cares but i need to scribble this somewhere before i lose my mind #it has been haunting me excessively for w e e k s #i just think about it so much okay #also contemplating how i was not a... very good dark knight or tank until i practiced and got drk to 50 #and how feri still was learning and grappling with being a drk properly bc they had one half of the story so to speak #theyre angry theyre raging theyre charging ahead because thats what they do they draw the fire and they rend it apart— #and then he. he dies. you know who i mean. he dies to protect them— too drenched in their head to see the danger #and he says 'smile'. and others say 'he wanted us to be as knights'. and others say 'he believed you hope incarnate' #and feri drags themself upright again— still lost still wandering still hurting— but they know they cannot be whatever this is #they are changed. now they will make it for the better #YES IM A MONK MAIN YES IM OBSESSED WITH DARK KNIGHT AND WHM IS MY HIGHEST CLASS I EXIST

Hello yes please I'd love a post about possession and mediumship and how they may or may not relate to plurality actually

Sigh...like, I guess, but I have to preface this by saying this is such a huge huge subject so this won't even scratch the surface. Possession and mediumship has been a persistent and global phenomena throughout all of human history, with each belief system having a unique and rich history that each deserve their own examination and exploration. In fact the inspiration for doing the research was seeing two sentiments in the community that kept rubbing me the wrong way being firstly "the reason there's no records of endogenic plurality is because someone might think you're possessed by a demon and perform a violent exorcism on you" and secondly "the DSM and ICD recognise Mediumship and spirit possession as a form of endogenic plurality" which aren't necessarily completely wrong when you look into it, I just think are incredibly incredibly lazy and culturally insensitive gotchas.

Demonic possession is actually a very specific phenomena which different religions have different beliefs and approaches on how to spot and what to do about it, but other forms of communication with, or connection to, non benevolent spirits was widely accepted. Even in Christianity in Europe, which I guess is what we would all immediately think of when we hear 'demonic possession', there is the Cult of Saints that existed for over a millennia. There's actually a few accounts of demonic possession that retrospectively we can say with certainty match the symptoms of DID, but really this is down to the meticulousness of the records being kept, which anyone who's researched witch trials knows can suck ass the majority of the time.

The first documented case of dissociative identity disorder (DID) was in 1584. Though not labeled such at the time, Jeanne Fery recorded her exorcism in detail (with additional details provided in the records of her exorcists), preserving documentation of symptoms that exactly match those that are found in individuals with DID today. She had multiple alters, each with their own name, identity, and identifying features and had alters that would today be described as an ISH, persecutory protectors, and child alters. Her alters were associated with actions that ranged from helping her to heal to self harm and disordered eating, were audible inside her head, and could take control of her body to allow for various actions, conversion features, and changes in knowledge and skills. The alters resulted from childhood physical and possibly sexual abuse. Jeanne Fery was actually called ”the most perfect case” of “dédoublement de la personnalité,” the most perfect case of DID, by Bourneville, the man who reissued a book about her life in 1886 (van der Hart, Lierens, Goodwin, 1996).1

But when it comes to endogenic plurality as being something non pathological, or non benevolent, it's harder to draw the same kind of parallels between endogenic plural experiences that we see and hear about today with something like the Cult of Saints while you can draw several parallels between the Cult of Saints and other practices around the globe. Also interestingly, while there's very little written about endogenic plurality, there's a metric fuck tonne written about spirit possession and mediumship. So can you take that humongous body of research, scratch out "spirit possession" and "mediumship", and write in Endogenic Plurality? Fuck no, and it would be insanely racist to try.

What we can do though, is identity and categorise commonality between them and see what insights we can gather about humanity as a whole.

To that end, these beliefs and experiences can be summed up thusly:

Voluntary Possession - usually involving some kind of trance induction, a specific entity such as a spirit, someone who's died, an angel, or a deity briefly inhabits the body for a limited time for a specific purpose, usually providing some kind of insight or perform an act of healing

Involuntary Possession - these are your demons and your devils, often accompanied by a deluge of physical and psychological symptoms such as convulsions and outbursts of rage

The Ouchies - these are bad spirits that don't possess you so much as they hang around and play mischief with your body, causing ailments and issues that aren't medically explained. Nowadays we call them somataform disorders but we used to call them hysteria as well until like the 80s.

And The Voices of Temptation - these are the devils and demons that whisper in your ear from within, tempting you to perform socially unacceptable behaviours like kissing boys and drinking too much wine.

One outlier of this that I really don't know enough about is the Jinn of Islamic faiths.

Jinn are much more physical than spirits.[31] Due to their subtle bodies, which are composed of fire and air (marijin min nar), they are purported to be able to possess the bodies of humans. Such physical intrusion of the jinn is conceptually different from the whisperings of the devils.[32]: 67  Since jinn are not necessarily evil, they are distinguished from cultural concepts of possession by devils/demons.[33] Since such jinn are said to have free will, they can have their own reasons to possess humans and are not necessarily harmful. There are various reasons given as to why a jinn might seek to possess an individual, such as falling in love with them, taking revenge for hurting them or their relatives, or other undefined reasons.[34][35] At an intended possession, the covenant with the jinn must be renewed.[36] Soothsayers (kāhin pl. kuhhān), would use such possession to gain hidden knowledge. Inspirations from jinn by poets requires neither possession nor obedience to the jinn. Their relationship is rather described as mutual.

And honestly, that sounds really really fascinating, I need to look into that much more cause wow I did not know that.

On the subject of voluntary trance possession, the best candidate for finding signs of Endogenic Plurality, rather than the potential DID of involuntary Possession, there's actually been a lot of research into this. Several attempts have been made by the medical community to pathologise voluntary possession and they've largely failed. Like at the core of it, that's why these are listed in the ICD and DSM, because we tried to explain them medically and couldn't because these practices are rarely detrimental to the practitioner, they don't constitute a disorder. There's also been some choice comments by medical professionals where they essentially blame the belief on the inherent inferiority and suggestibility of the (poc) practitioners mind.

Viewed through a psychophysiological lens there's actually been quite a bit of scientific research into the biological function of trance and possessive states and we do actually see changes in brain area activation and activity, very similar in fact to that of hypnosis. Induction into a trance state often involves the use of rhythmic drum beating, group dancing, or the use of psychotropic herbs, so called ecstatic practices.

Mediums often score highly in certain specific criteria of the Dissociative Experiences Scale but low on others and tend to score better than average on mental health scores. So are they a potential example of Endogenic Plurality? Well Endogenic is more of a self identity label where one defines themselves as being 'more than one' in some way and you find very few accounts of mediums describing themselves in this way. The spirits they channel do not exist within them outside of trance rituals, but rather come from another plane of existence temporarily connecting with our realm through the medium.

However! There may be a parallel to be drawn between the brain activity of a trance state and the auto Hypnotic model of Paul Dell. Not everyone is capable of trance and possession, just as not everyone is capable of plurality or developing DID, but they all might use the same mechanism. The same mechanism that leads to psychosomatic symptoms and the placebo effect, behind Mesmerism and hysteria.

The way that this mechanism manifests might very well be sociocognitive in nature, being used and utilised in different cultures in different but very measurable and real ways. As such I think the most we can really say that these practices and experiences are linked to plurality, and there may very well be some individual and isolated cases of plurality in these practices, but that we shouldn't overwrite and erase what these practices are within their own contexts and definitely shouldn't be using them as rhetorical arguments and gotchas, that's the devil of colonialism on your shoulder talking and you should not be listening to him

My Experiences With The Horned God

Ok goes without saying but this is my own experience, my upg. Whether or not things are historically accurate is NOT my concern with this post. I am simply documenting my experiences. I am also NOT a reconstructionist, I am an Eclectic Neo-pagan that draws inspiration from NUMEROUS sources.

In my experiences Worshipping The Horned One and The Goddess, they're definetly like, the Primary Godheads/Energy Archetypes of the universe/nature.

My experiences with the Horned One aligns pretty well with Feri tradition, albeit he's a bit more Faceted for me.

I Experience Him as The Lightbringer, The Lord of the Forest, and The Royal Darkness/The Arddu. I'll go into Detail Below:

The Lightbringer - The Solar and Illuminating aspect of the Horned God. This form of him is the divine rebel, and very much into embracing the joys of life and pleasure. I Break the Lightbringer down into two more facets: The Blue God, and The Solar God. Both are relatively similar but to me the Blue God (this name stems from Feri) is the more esoteric and taboo aspects of light, and The Solar God is the more nature based and wild aspects of the sun itself.

The Names I use currently for these are Oberon for the Blue God, and in the past for the Solar God I've called upon Apollo and his various celtic forms, but I can't seem to find a name that sticks. I've also used Lucifer for the Lightbringer as a whole, but I'm trying to frame this side of my practice in English and Celtic folklore specifically for sake of ease. I am including things like Shakespeare, Arthurian Legends, and so on in this.

The Lord Of The Forest - This tends to be the popularized form of the Horned God. Fertility, Nature, Animals, Magic, the Cycle of Life and Death. He is blending of both the LightBringer, and The Arddu. The Lord of the Forest is a seasonal God. With the Oak King being his Spring and Summer forms, and the Holly King being his cthonic Fall and Winter forms, but name wise, I use three.

Cocidius/Callirius being the more human form of this God. Mostly human aside from ears and antlers or horns.

Herne is the Median between human and Animal, primal yet civilized, he is at least to me, 50/50 in terms of man and beast, but can shift between either pending what you are doing. The way he manifests to me and his energy feels is basically Hircine from TES, and I have worked with him under that name in the past.

Cernunnos to me is the Animal aspect of him. He speaks through nature itself, and is the large stag in the woods. He is cthonic, he is liminal, he is primal. He is the green forest itself in the warm seasons, and the dead and rebirthing forest in the cold. Cernunnos is the masculine embodiment of nature itself.

The Arddu - The Dark/Shadow aspect of the Horned God. He is the master of the Witches Sabbath, the embodiment of death, decay, and the shadow. Since he is death he is also rebirth and transformation. He is not malevolent, actually quite the opposite, but he is not opposed to destroying things to rebuild them, nor is he opposed to baneful workings in any ways. The Arddu as I understand him, often appears as a humanoid black goat or Stag with a candle lit between his horns. Sometimes his head is a skull, sometimes it is not. Sometimes he is more human in appearance. Regardless, The Arddu fulfills the role of "folk devil" in my own practice, though I've moved away from calling him that, as Arddu, meaning Dark One, feels more natural to me. Though I am not against, and actually quite enjoy the reclamation of the word Devil.

The Arddu comes to me in two colors, Black and White.

Black is the color of the fertile soil, which is made that way through decay. Black is the color of the shadow, the subconscious, and the taboo. That which we as people are taught to fear, but once embraced gives us immense power. In this form he's been coming to me as Arawn, but also in the past has come to me as Sathanas and the archetypal Sabbatic Goat. He dons the skull of either a Stag, Ram, Wolf, or Goat, or has those skulls for his actual face.

White is the color often associated with the otherworld, and the Wild Hunt. The White Arddu is the Light Betwixt the Horns and the winter snows. He is faery king in essence. To me he manifests in a more humanoid form, and is very fae-like. He is a trickster, a teacher, and a phantom.. to me he appears as Gwyn Ap Nudd, and I understand Gwyn and Arawn to be two sides of the same coin in my path.

Have a redraw of an older drawing of mine. I wanted to try and redo some older drawings recently and this is the first one and im quite happy with it. I rarely draw chibis but it's not bad looking.

Feri, the purple one is mine while Kiv, the gray one is @temporalcrow 's

Still am unsure how these two meet yet seeing as Kiv is from the deep dark and Feri is from the shallows, but they cross paths somehow and become close.

Hey! Finally found the time to do this post. 😩

N.B

I apologize if my English not proper, it’s not my native language so I’m just trying not to embarrass myself (Although probably already did it)

— You can call me Feri or Fer, whatever you like.

Let’s get to the point. I’m a digital artist, I draw on my phone, btw without a stylus. I don’t know how my fingers haven’t fallen off yet, but it’s taken a long time to get used to drawing with a finger on a phone screen.

— I’m using ibisPaint X (someone help me).
