So if we presume that planes continue to evolve as we saw with Kamigawa, does that mean that given their culture that New Capenna would, theoretically, be able to have gangs based on the families reenact West Side Story.

Could you envision more modern Capenna??

Do y'all want me to get into the weird poly thing the family heads have going on? Because this is how you get me to get into that.

The Obscura have always tread the fine line between "totally legit psychics" and "scam psychics". The invention of things like TV and phones would only exacerbate that already-existing problem.

The invention of new things would also open the doorway to more "methods" for the Obscura to use in their various divinations. They already had cards, crystal balls, and the like before, but someone invents the pendulum (only $9.99 if you call this definitely tolled number!) and it's all the rage for a few years among Obscura agents.

Raffine thinks it's funny as shit and has her own "psychic hotline" for the particularly wealthy to use.

The invention of more modern technology would also improve illusions and sleight-of-hand tricks. You can't tell me the Obscura wouldn't be all over that. Sure, they could just use their own magic, but if there's an easier and cheaper way, why not add that to your repertoire?

Conning people is just so easy in the modern age is what I'm saying.

The Maestros are going to be all over modern art movements, okay? Let's just make that one clear. Opening up the doorway to different types of art (such as pop art, which was popular in the 1940s to 1950s in the United States) leads to a broader range of museums with their own unique flairs.

While Xander hasn't been a fan of every art movement, he does get what they're going for and respects the grind, because holy shit they had to invent all sorts of new techniques and technology to make these pieces. He also has a soft spot for a few of the newer ones, but you'll never hear him say it aloud. (And yes, I'm saying his canon death didn't happen, fight me out behind the Denny's.)

Also, murder has gotten more easy! Or at least more interesting.

Of all of the families, the Riveteers would change the least. They're still a construction-based union, they just have cranes and bulldozers now. They've stayed in business due to demolishing and rebuilding as the years have gone on.

Ziatora still rules this mighty empire of loyal workers, directing her Riveteers on construction sites even as technology makes things faster. Though she does eventually have to invent OSHA because of how many of her workers she has to keep catching.

The existence of frat boys shows that the spirit of the Cabaretti is alive and well in the modern time, even if druidry has fallen to the wayside. A core foundation of the mortal experience is having fun, and the Cabaretti are still here to provide!

They also have their own version of the Michelin Stars going on. Like...I don't know, the Vantoleone Stars, after the Mezzio base that Jetmir refuses to let go of.

To give Jetmir credit, though, he's gotten a lot better about security for the revelries, in case there's a repeat of the Adversary-Crescendo incident. Of all of the family heads, he's adapted to the modern era the fastest.

Given everything going on above, yes, everyone still needs lawyers and security. That's where the Brokers still step in, though it's a lot more decentralized as different offices try to make their mark. Everyone still pays lip service to Falco Spara, but anything beyond that is up in the air.

Spara's still got sleeper agents all over the place, but he's a lot more guarded nowadays. Pretty much everyone is waiting for blood in the water to take him down from the top and put themselves in his place, so he's retreated from the public eye in favor of double- and triple-checking his contracts for loopholes. Even one could knock him from his perch. Rumor has it that the only people in contact with him anymore are his second-in-command and the other family heads.

...I almost feel bad for all the puns in this section.

As for everyone else, well.

The government and law system are still auctions rather than functional. (Though that's not too different from our modern day, huh?) Generally, as long as you get a mean enough Broker for a lawyer, your case is as good as won (or thrown out) regardless of your actual guilt status.

The angels are hanging around, adapting to either join the crime families (though it's very awkward between them and the demons) or creating their own merry bands of misfits. A good number of them work for the various newspapers, doing what they can to either help or hinder as they see fit - and according to their central color, of course.

Efforts to get back down to Old Capenna and see what's down there now have some public support, because enough time has passed that people have forgotten (other than Spara, who never forgets) what used to be down there. It's a free-for-all, as it requires a different set of survival skills from New Capenna, and no current attempts to rebuild down there have been successful with all of the monsters still running around.

Time continues to march forward, and so do the mortals of New Capenna. The primary question raised is how long the angels, demons, and avatars can keep up.

67/100 Maestros de la oscuridad | Masters of darkness

The (evil) wise men of the past have seen in their vision that dark times are approaching. But the problem is that their desire for power is so great that they prefer to use their powers for destruction, even if it means total darkness for decades.

-It's our chance to take control of humanity.

How will we avoid this fate?

Where are the good wise men?

Que seamos "necesarios" de forma sana..

No sé si "necesitar" sea la palabra correcta para describir lo que quiero decir.

Sé que no debo depender de otra persona para sentirme amada, sé que no debo depender de otra persona para ser una persona segura y sentirme segura.

Sé que tengo que cuidarme, que tengo que hacer cosas para mí, por mí, que tengo que ser mi prioridad, que teniendo amor en mí, para mí, se me hace más fácil amar a los demás, aunque no sea correspondida, el amor se da y somos responsables de ello.

Se puede amar a la distancia, se puede amar, y no significa que se tenga que estar a lado o cerca de esa persona, porque simplemente esa persona no aporta a nuestra vida.

Si uno se siente con alta autoestima, con seguridad, se cuida a sí misma, y tiene amor para sí misma, y para dar. Si uno es consciente de dar amor, de tener paz y aportar paz, de que uno es responsable de uno mismo, que la culpa no sirve, el miedo no sirve.

Pero si llega esta persona a aportar y amar desde su voluntad y libertad, si me hace ver las cosas de diferente manera a como estoy acostumbrada a verlas, me enseña como se ve desde otro ángulo, pero sin juzgarme, si me ayuda a recordar cosas que olvido comúnmente por estar pensando en varias cosas al mismo tiempo. Si me aporta a cosas que no prioriozo yo por priorizar otras. Ese hombre será "necesario" en mi vida.

Asi como yo puedo ser necesaria para su vida también. Que seamos "necesarios" de la forma sana, desde el amor y desde la libertad.

A eso le llamo compañero de vida.

"La inconsciencia ordinaria siempre está ligada en alguna forma con la negación del Ahora. El Ahora, por supuesto, también implica el aquí.

¿Se está resistiendo a su aquí y ahora? Algunas personas preferirían estar siempre en otro lugar. Su "aquí" nunca es satisfactorio. Por medio de la observación de sí mismo, descubra si es el caso en su vida. Dondequiera que esté, esté plenamente allí. si encuentra su aquí y ahora intolerable y lo hace infeliz, tiene tres opciones: apártese de la situación, cámbiela o acéptela totalmente. Si quiere tomar la responsabilidad de su vida, debe escoger una de esas tres opciones y debe escoger ahora. Después acepte las consecuencias, si excusas, sin negatividad, sin contaminación psíquica. Mantenga a espacio interior despejado".

–Eckhart Tolle

Joseph Parker, The Path to Glory

* * *

The Visions of Joseph Parker, part II

“Increasingly dissatisfied with his career as an accountant, Parker devoted himself to Rosicrucianism, joined the Theosophical Society, and took up singing and playing a musical instrument. A second epiphany in 1962, allowed Parker to overcome his fears of failure and financial ruin, and choose the life of an artist. He studied art briefly in Sydney and then moved to Paris and later Israel. His life in Israel and later in India, led to encounters with spiritual leaders such as the chief of the Rosicrucian order, the head of Jain Buddhism, and the well-known Indian philosopher, Krishnamurti. Parker continued traveling, settling next in Mexico where he attended two art schools and began a career as a portrait painter.

Continuing to travel, he moved to the U.S. in 1977 and lived in San Francisco where a Chicago writer, Gregory Vlamis saw and began collecting Parker’s paintings. With Vlamis as his ally, Parker exhibited his work in numerous galleries including the Walther Kelly Gallery in Chicago and sold paintings to many private collectors, corporations and museums including the Art Institute of Chicago. Parker was one of the featured artists in an exhibition at the cutting-edge P.S. 1 Gallery in New York City, his first exposure in the New York gallery scene.

Learning of his work in New York, E.B. and Maureen Smith became Joseph’s most active collectors until they lost track of his whereabouts as he moved across the country in a RV, painting wherever he traveled. Joseph cared little about the prestige of galleries or the lure of money and decided to give up painting in 1991 to commit himself to studying the ‘divine scheme.’ The Smith’s later found him in Desert Hot Springs and convinced him to recommence painting, supported by their generous patronage.”

— Joseph Parker, Carl Hammer Gallery

MTG fan lore question, what was Old Capenna like? Do you have any ideas™️?

Hey Faust, my dear friend! I had to think on this one for a while, to be completely honest with ya.

Well, as we know, before the Phyrexians showed up and fucked everything, there was a Kingdom Era in the plane, where the five crime families started in different jobs than we see them in now. The Obscura were mystics, wizards, and advisors of the plane's angels; the Maestros were nobles and art aficionados; the Riveteers were artisans, blacksmiths, edificers, and architects; the Cabaretti were a popular druidic faith; the Brokers were paladins. It's even directly compared to the Bant shard of Alara.

We know that Old Capenna also had very few sphinxes, as they were very territorial and vain - they also had temples that they would draw the masses to, vying for worship through their visions and effectively only say the good stuff to keep the masses coming back. But we know Raffine didn't do this song and dance, instead crafting dark prophecies that were far more true and honest than the other sphinxes she knew - her mother, her rival, and her former lover, though she didn't care much for the first two and can't even remember the third at this point.

Xander is mentioned in canon to have been an ailing artist of an all-but-dead aristocratic house, showing that Capenna during the Kingdom Era was probably very, very similar to the romanticized idea of medieval Europe.

Ziatora is mentioned to be the last of the dragons who was able to survive through the power of her contract with an archdemon, so clearly Old Capenna had enough of them to go around and have a pretty sustainable "knight versus dragon" ecological dynamic. We also know that the rest of the dragons are now extinct, as seen in the lines "But where are the other dragons now? For all their righteousness, their gloating and purity, the great dragons of Old Capenna are dust."

The leonin druids that were the Cabaretti were founded by Jetmir, and they enjoyed the cycle of life, death, rebirth, and life eternal and were greatly connected to nature. They also served as entertainment to keep spirits up among settlers, who in turn would keep the druids fed and warm. This dynamic didn't change much when the druids moved into New Capenna and became a crime family.

But surprisingly, we don't actually know much about Falco Spara's past before becoming head of the Brokers, or even if he founded the order that would become them later. All we really know is that he has some of the clearest memories of the founding of New Capenna.

So that's all canon with a bit of speculation at the end of Xander's section. So let's address the elephant in the room: the angels and archdemons.

Given that the only demons with that creature type are the crime lords (and Ob Nixilis as an interloper), that means there were no minor demons left around the time of the Streets of New Capenna block. So either minor demons were wiped out by the Phyrexian invasion that led to New Capenna's construction, or they never existed and only the archdemons did. Personally, I'm leaning towards "normal demons never existed in the first place", because it's hard to believe they would have all been wiped out without a trace. Perhaps the Capennan devils used to serve in that function instead, given that other planes such as Innistrad have them as the "lesser evil" to a demon's "greater evil". There were archangels above the regular angels during the Phyrexian invasion, so it doesn't make sense that archdemons wouldn't have some kind of servant.

I'm particularly interested in what drove the Obscura broadly to join the archdemons, given their closeness to the angels, but I believe it just comes down to survival. The archdemons had the best deals for New Capenna and could even repurpose the angels into Halo, so it makes sense that even the Obscura would turn against their angelic masters.

Hopefully this gave ya something to think about, Faust!

~Jasper
