Note
heyyyy its been a while but I have some more aztec mythology head canons regarding the four tezcatlipocas
Ooo okie letsa see
(Yes ik theres more than four but thats bc of the like depends who you ask thing)
Tezcatlipoca: the kind of guy that gets upset if you dont pick up the phone or show up like 2 seconds late for something while never answering the telephone and always showing up late, is thinking miku miku ooeeoo, waluigi on mario kart, rage quit playing knots and crosses with a computer;
Mictlantecuhtli: listens to classical music like its heavy metal and calmly listens to metal like ots classical music, idk why but i think he watches novelas, cinnamon roll, "cant rn, having a tea party with gertrude, shes telling me about her grandkids and how excited she is to see them in dia de los muertos", yoshi in mariokart, the embodiment of that "literally name one thing better than a dog" post if yk what im talking abt;
Quetzacoatl: if he got the golden ticket he would have robbed all of the chocolate in the factory and helped the oompa loompas to make a workers union, toad in mariokart, likes to laugh at conspiracy theories;
Xipe-totec: same vein as mictlantecuhtli with music stuff, great at cooking, baby peach in mariokart, victim of deez nutz jokes;
Huitzilopochtli: do not allow him on the kitchen my man cannot cook for the life of him, "be the reason why the music stops in a videogame", luigi in mariokart, is in the sun deities groupchat and only ever replies with "k." when someone tells him its his turn to be the sun;

Tezcatlipoca literally looks like a celebrity doing a really terrible job ‘trying’ to hide their identity while going shopping at the local mall

alright i'll say it, up to this point the lostbelt's only saving grace is kadoc as a character, camazots who is in fucking npc jail, ereshkigal's trailer appearance and nitocris alter, last two we don't even know what role they'll play
for the chapter that's supposed to be the last lostbelt and that was hyped up for a year, this is sad – really sad

I kinda hope Fate never touches the mesoamerican civs again if I'm being honest with you, I can't keep arguing with people about how genocide is actually bad.

Yet the wind keeps whispering the tale from centuries ago...
Long ago, in the era when gods held dominion over the earth, two brothers stood as the principal deities. Kukulkan, the feathered serpent and god of rain, storms, wind, and life, was adored as the favorite of the Mayan kingdom. Beside him was Tezcatlipoca, the god of night, who harbored jealousy for the offerings bestowed upon his brother, receiving only fear in return.
In a sinister plan, Tezcatlipoca orchestrated a party for Quetzalcoatl, intending to intoxicate him. Succumbing to the beverages, Quetzalcoatl unleashed chaos, awakening the next morning with remorse, departing never to be seen again. Before vanishing, he crafted a dagger from obsidian, imbued with the power to revive the dead. However, only the first person to find the dagger could wield its power, and a ritual was required to become its new host, preventing others from using it.
Yaxkin, Quetzalcoatl's personal sorcerer, uncovered Tezcatlipoca's deceit and, with the assistance of other sorcerers, including his brother Ookin, thwarted Tezcatlipoca, leading to his demise. However, the malevolence of Tezcatlipoca consumed Ookin.
Now, a girl named Kit has found the dagger, catching the attention of both brothers. Ookin seeks to use the dagger to resurrect his new master, planning to perform the ritual and become the new host, gaining control over its power.

All 'Dia de Los Muertos' references in today's QSMP event
I’ve seen it in Xitter but not yet in Tumblr, so I’m gonna go and translate each Egg’s book with the references to the deities that are mention within.
(English is not my first language. Sorry for any typo or grammar mistake).
Tumblr media
For Tilin:
Tilin, my girl, I’m sorry you couldn���t enjoy the life it was expected for you, but don’t be afraid you will be with mom at Chichihualcuauhco[1] where I will take care of you. I won’t let anything hurt my helpless girl until you have the opportunity to be reborn again, you didn’t deserve to join the Gods in the underworld. - Tezcatlipoca[2]
Tumblr media
For Bobby:
My little Bobby, you have proven to own dignity and courage to fight for what is right, As a result of this, I’ve invited you to my kingdom  Tonatiuhichan[3], where at my side, you and other warriors will sing about their deeds and will dance until midnight, so you can enjoy forever the sunset that you adore so much. - Tonaituh[4]
Tumblr media
For Juana:
Juana, it’s an honor for me and my wife Mictecachihuatl[5] to have you join us in the Mictlan[6]. Even though your dead was an accident, you may enjoy the journey that is our kingdom. You treated nature with respect in your life, so our dogs are excited to meet you at last. You will join us in the infinity of the universe forever. - Mictlantecuhtli [7]
Tumblr media
For Trump:
Oh Trump, I’m sorry that my currents took you to this destiny, but to compensate I will invite you to Tlalocan[8], where you may join us in our celebration without end, and you may eat all the corn, amaranth, pumpkin, tomato and chile you want. In my kingdom, I promise you there’s no suffering and you will never be alone. - Tlaloc [9]
Now for all the little references:
[1] Chichihualcuauhco:
Afterlife in which children who died young or in childbirth are sent and fed from the “wet-nurse tree” (You can’t see it in the photo, but there was a tree in Tilin’s altar). Souls here wait for their next opportunity to be reborn.
[2] Tezcatlipoca:
He’s one of the four creator gods of the universe. I’m not an expert on Aztec mythology and I wasn’t really into Tilin’s lore, so I’m kinda uncertain as to why he was the one to write to them or how are they connected.
[3] Tonatiuhichan:
One of the afterlife paradises, where the soul of warries who died in battle go. It was believed that warriors could go back to their homes (land of the living) as hummingbirds. (Fun fact: Woman who died at childbirth would be given the same rank as the warriors who died in battle and would be sent to a similar place called Cihuatlampa!)  
[4] Tonatiuh:
God of the sun (who runs Tonatiuhichan), who most believed was the creator of the Flor of Cempasúchil.
[5] Mictecachihuatl:
Lady of the Dead, Mictlantecuhtli’s consort. She guards the bones of the dead. (Fun Fact: In Oaxaca, is known as Matlacihua, and is said to punish womanizing and drunken men who walk late at night. Kinda funny considering Mariana and Slime’s interactions lmao.)
[6] Mictlan:
The underworld. Most people who die travel to Mictlan. To travel to the kingdom, you have to go through nine levels, which kinda needs dogs to carry the dead across the river. Same reason as to why Juana is sent dogs. (Fun fact: Depending in the color of the dog, they would act different. Yellow ones would just carry the soul, white ones would refuse cause they just washed themselves, and black dogs would refuse cause they just swum the river.)
[7] Mictlantecuhtli:
Lord of the Dead, king of Mictlan. There’s nothing much to say about him; he just simply tried to maintain order in the kingdom and was kinda of an asshole to other gods. There’s a whole myth about other Gods wanting to repopulate Earth, and him going ‘Nuh uh’ until Quetzalcóatl gets tired of him and steals the human bones from Mictlan lol.
[8] Tlalocan:
The afterlife of the Nectar. Better known as the water paradise, where those who died through drowning (or anything associated with rain for that matter) go. I read somewhere that there’s a theory of Trump dying because he drown in his own tears, so that’s why he was invited by Tlaloc.
[9] Tlaloc:
The God of rain, associated as the giver of life. The flower Tagetes Lucida are kind of like the Cempasúchil, and are his symbol.

come on guys are we really praising tezcatlipoca's design as good and cool just because seeing it made nasu pull an oberon and use the character more prominently. the art is good in a bubble, the character design could be good in a bubble, but it does not exist in a bubble. this character design was specifically made for and applied inappropriately to an aztec deity. oberon was good, sure, but we're talking about white tezcatlipoca here. white skinned blonde-haired tezcatlipoca. congressman tezcatlipoca. "it's just like oberon, nasu saw a good design and" what? a what design? like god i know everyone kind of let quetz slide but a whitewashed character design that is part of a larger pattern of whitewashing is actually a good design now if it's these particular guys doing it?

I'll forever be upset that they made Quetzalcoatl a blonde white woman. Like the only good thing about that is they inadvertently didn't sexualize an indigenous woman but still she could have been so cool
Just wait until you see Tezcatlipoca, Huitzilopochtli and Kukulkan

white tezcatlipoca's design (incredibly obvious issue of the design being associated with who it is aside) really does just look better in every other style it's drawn in
I'm at least glad that only the first asc design caught on with fanartists. can you fucking imagine

The significance of this day Day Ehecatl (Wind, known as Ik in Maya) is governed by Quetzalcoatl as its provider of tonalli (Shadow Soul) life energy.
Quetzalcoatl 🐉 Talon Abraxas
The god Quetzalcoatl, is the Feathered Serpent or Precious Twin. He is the god intelligence and self-reflection, a patron of priests.
Quetzalcoatl is a primordial god of creation, a giver of life. With his opposite Tezcatlipoca he created the world. Quetzalcoatl is also called White Tezcatlipoca, to contrast him to the black Tezcatlipoca.
As the Lord of the East he is associated with the morning star, his twin brother Xolotl was the evening star (Venus). As the morning star he was known by the name Tlahuizcalpantecuhtli, "lord of the star of the dawn." An other representation of Quetzalcoatl is Ehecatl, the Wind God. His calendrical name is Ce Acatl (One Reed).
After the last world, the Fourth Sun had been destroyed, Quetzalcoatl went to Mictlan, the land of the death, and created our current world, the Fifth Sun, by using his own blood to give new life to bones. Quetzalcoatl is also the giver of maize (corn) to mankind.

Listen i know i shouldnt have expected better from a fandom that defends White Tez to the point there's a weekly round of shitposting said whitewashed Tezcatlipoca drinking mexican beer,
But you cannot seriously tell me that Riyo unironically did "Now presenting: An All-White Reenactment of the Underground Railroad" and it was so non-controversial to yall that I'm only just learning about it 2 years later
