SPEAKER_04 0:00

Welcome back to another week of the Blurred Spectrum Podcast. Today we plan on bringing to you the definitive backstories of the creatures of the mist. The beings of unbelief. The the the the effective thought provoking horror-bringing blood curdling. Skin tingling. Creatures. So welcome to creature feature.

SPEAKER_09 0:41

You went from Huxtable to Kyle Barker for the end. Thank you.

SPEAKER_03 0:48

Anywho, uh, but thank you, thank you, thank you. Uh, we are doing the creature feature this week. Uh, we've gone through many, many episodes of uh uh horror-filled and thrillers, but this week we decided to be more creative on this spin. Each of our panelists are going to give you who they are as a creature, who they could be as a creature, who which creature uh truly embodies their more uh, as Miss Seyone would say, demonic side. So I will give you the panelists for today, starting with myself, Suchino Shogun. We have Shampoo Bracelets, we have The Doctor, Ms. Skittles, the Black McCoy, Sayone, and Kaze. Oh yeah. So I'm gonna allow each of our panelists to be able to describe, give maybe even a backstory behind the creatures that truly embody their uh their yang to their yin, if you will, or I guess it's their yin to their yang. Anyway, so I will start with the queen of the nights herself. Well, not the because that would make her one of those other people. That's not what I meant. Um, Queen of the Damned herself, Miss Sayone.

SPEAKER_01 2:17

Oh no, I think I would be a succubus, and I was going through a whole roster of different creatures of the night, and I would definitely be a succubus. I think I have a um right, and um with a succubus generally they suck the life force out of their victims in sexual means.

SPEAKER_03 2:43

How about that from every orphan?

SPEAKER_01 2:48

And it would only I would only go after victims that get on my damn nerves. So the people that won't leave me alone, you know, the people like hey, what's going on?

SPEAKER_03 2:57

You know, that's what you have a lot of dead bodies in DC.

SPEAKER_01 2:59

I would have a lot of dead bodies. No, my god, my god, don't say that. Yeah, yeah. We don't need a FBI or the NCIS or whoever the hell go and watch this. Now we don't need that. We only need that smoke. But yeah, so it would be more so, you know, I have my Velma exterior. Uh as you can see right here. I look like a wonderful student with all straight A's and look, I cause no trouble. I've never been to the principal's office ever, and I'll suck your life force and you fuck with me. So that's basically who I would.

SPEAKER_10 3:40

Quite literally.

SPEAKER_01 3:41

Literally, yeah, literally, exactly. And um, you know, making sure that I calmly and seducely dream their essence so that I might absorb their wisdom and their life force so I can be, you know, fabulous as possible for the rest of my days until there are no more people to suck the lie force out of on this planet. So yes, I would be a succubus. I would be uh a succubus, and you know, when I return per se or when I engage in in this uh ritual coitus, if if you will, um I would uh grow horns and a tail and fangs and I would suck their blood as well as their sexual essence, so to speak. So that would be she just went ahead and said it.

SPEAKER_09 4:31

I mean, because you always have to have a nice glass of wine with your meal.

SPEAKER_01 4:35

Absolutely. I mean, Miss Skittles is already trying, you know, already starting, so she's kind of advertising.

SPEAKER_09 4:41

I mean, I would I would have been there with her, but I decided to drink aloe vera juice instead.

SPEAKER_01 4:45

Aloe vera or that peach that peach water from Hmart. Oh, I had uh oh yeah, see, I love how Miss Skittles is drinking like the whole glass. You're giving me this vibe, and I'm feeling it's kind of reminding me of the essence that I'll be you know absorbing in my soul.

SPEAKER_02 5:01

So beautiful.

SPEAKER_03 5:06

So what would you say? You already kind of said for the most part who your target audience would be as a creature. What would you say is the thought process behind why this creature is needed wherever it may potentially be?

SPEAKER_01 5:23

Hmm. I think it's uh stupidity control.

SPEAKER_09 5:30

Call it population control.

SPEAKER_01 5:31

Call it control population so much because you know I do need my victims, but people are stupid, you know, in a general sense. Uh some victims who get on my nerves. So it's just to you know control the stupidity in the world. I think that is my uh intended target per se. I wouldn't go after you know innocence, no, you know, because I I do have a job.

SPEAKER_03 5:52

Yes, yep, yep, yeah.

SPEAKER_09 5:53

Right. But um I don't know about the rest of you bitches.

SPEAKER_03 6:00

But yes, so all right. So now we're going to slide it over. I'd love to hear what this one's going to be the doctor, your your creature. So all right.

SPEAKER_07 6:11

So my creature, I'm gonna go with a kitsune. So creature from Japanese mythology, um, you know, uh mythical fox. And you've probably seen versions of this throughout several different video games, anime, like Ninetales from Pokemon, or like you know, Naruto, the Ninetale Fox, like all that. But basically, the kitsune has a really wide range of powers depending on the myth. But generally, they're definitely magical. They tend to have um really long life, and really, you know, the ability to create illusions is one big thing that comes up. Um, shape shifting is something that they can typically do, usually shape-shifting into people or something like you know, people or like to trick other people, but in some risk they can turn into anything, essentially. Um, you know, they have this connection to nature and protecting nature and whatnot, which you know I also like. Um of course, you know, you know me, you know, I love dogs. So like the fact that they're fox-based is something that, you know, it's a cousin of dogs and whatnot. So, you know, it's something I like a lot. But um, and yeah, it's like they in some myths they can like absorb life essence, which uh kind of reminiscent of the succubus. Um, interestingly, I'd consider you know an incubus as well, but you know, I think there's some differences with between like some things I don't like about the incubus that the succubus doesn't have its characteristics. Like I think the succubus lean is more sexy, and the incubus is a little bit more rapey. Like so it's kind of like, uh, it's it's a little tricky, but you know, I do like the idea of you know, like life absorption as his power, and that's something that you know kitsune can do as well, or they can drain the life of their victims or like the spirit of their victims if they feel like you know the victim is deserving of such. Um kitsune aren't inherently evil, of course, like they can be good or bad depending on the specific you know story you're talking about, the myth you're talking about. But yeah, like I think a lot about the Kitsune really resonates with me in something I like. Oh, and some of them are said to like be all-knowing and omniscient and whatnot as well, which you know that link to wisdom is something you know I think is really cool too. So yep. Beautiful.

SPEAKER_01 8:37

Oh, very nice. That is true. The incubus is rapey as hell, it just kind of sits on your on your on your chest and just takes your shit. Like, I'm just sitting here. I'm just gonna take you.

SPEAKER_09 8:50

Because it's like you kind of like it's like it kind of talks about the the values or not, well, not like how like women's sexuality is seen as like evil because it's seductive, and men's sexuality would be like seen as you know, vicious and harsh and you know, oppressive in a way. So it's it's it's it's it inter I didn't know that incubai were supposed to be or like were more rapey. I thought that I thought that they were you know practically the same thing, just you know, two different types of demons. But it's interesting that there's that kind of dichotomy between the two of them. Like one is like evil because it's seductive, the other one is evil because it's a rapist.

SPEAKER_01 9:27

So I think their execution is is just is different. So like with a set of they make you feel like you want this. So it's more intent, like, ooh, I I want her or I want him, I want this. The aware of Right, they just take your shit. So um, you know what I'm saying? It's just different. And I think with an incubus, um, there's different depictions on incubus. They can be like a small little demon that sits on your chest at night, or um it can be like just kind of like a spirit per se, but that just feeds off of your dreams and your fears and things like that. So it's just more so as you can you're actually seeing the danger, but you're wanting it like a siren versus you know being unaware of the danger, and you know, you're in your bed at home um and you're thinking this is your safe space, and an invader is coming in, taking, you know, basically your essence, so to speak. So it's just a different execution, but the same, the same, I guess, resolution per se.

SPEAKER_07 10:28

And one thing that I think really showcases that too, if you've ever played Persona 5, the Persona is this beautiful woman, but just with like, you know, like bat wings and a tail and whatnot. Like she's really sexy. And the incubase is like this hideous little imp with a gigantic dick, but like really just hideous looking and just like it looks rapey. Like it's just it's super creepy. But yeah, but I think that's um the Kitsune strikes a better balance with that, where you know the Kitsune seduces people by like appearing in a really sexy form, you know, and whatnot, but you know, it's deceptive, but less like, oh, I'm just gonna take what I want, you know. So yeah.

SPEAKER_01 11:19

I didn't know that the the incubus was packing, so I'm doing some research just to see what's going on here.

SPEAKER_08 11:31

You can come over.

SPEAKER_03 11:34

We already said we are not having the hentai episode yet. So I'm gonna go ahead and throw that over the shampoo break.

SPEAKER_08 11:44

That's fucked up.

SPEAKER_09 11:48

You know what? That is the point. That is the point to get fucked up in the best way.

SPEAKER_06 11:54

Um so little background. Uh my picking of my monster actually was more in the way I was raised, which is power control. So um, I was raised in a mindset of if you can control your emotions, then you can have more power over the things around you. Pretty much is control your inner your inside and you'll overpower the out. For that reason, I chose werewolves. Because with all the power that they have, the one thing that they don't have control over a lot of times, and if they do, you that's where you start to see something more powerful. Is that feral nature that they get when they go through their transformation? Um, that feral nature, if can I feel that if that feral, if I become a werewolf with that with the strength of T, as well as the you know, insane senses, the night vision that comes with it, the only big marginal thing is the bloodlust that they get when they transform that can lead them to destroy their loved ones or you know, innocent bystanders. I wouldn't want to do that, of course, but everything else that comes with it, I would love to have. Um more so, more so the uh the senses is what I would think. Yeah. You can have, yeah, and I can't smell for shit.

SPEAKER_09 13:21

But uh that's what this is really about.

SPEAKER_03 13:28

It may not be that you can't smell, it may be that your your senses are your sense of smell is so sensitive that everything that is around you is clogging it up.

SPEAKER_06 13:37

It's very possible. There's multi multiple nasal injuries throughout my life. But um that's another thing, the healing factor. Right. Or healing factor. Yeah, the healing factor, which like according to my family, I already got that part. So uh, so the rest of it would be cool. Also, the senses mainly, if you control your senses in that fraud nature, you'll have more of a control over your body, which you might be able to exert more power than you can possibly know and get that full that full 100% out of that legacy speed and strength. Um, perfect example, Underworld. One of the strongest, one of the one of the strongest werewolves was that dude with the cool beard. That you found out it all started over a love interest. Like it was he was one of the strongest ones, and he had taken centuries to get to that point. And he got his intelligence to the point where his strength was, even though he was coming from what would be seen as a lower class of monster in comparison to the werewolves who were of nobility. I mean to uh vampires who were of nobility. So I would love to have that. And as an added bonus, I would love to mix that shit with Cerberus, because I just love Cerberus. So with Cerberus? Cerberus. No, uh, three heads, a three-headed werewolf.

SPEAKER_08 14:54

I love it. Three-headed werewolf, reads from the wheel. Like old dude at the end of the at the end of uh brand new animal? Yes. Ah just like that.

SPEAKER_06 15:03

So it was like, and like I would, I think that combination of the two with the control over the feral nature of it, more, more control over your power, would just lead to some amazing, amazing things. And I would probably, I don't know if I would turn to a superhero or anything like that, but what kind of like so would you be like a full moon kind of werewolf, or would you be like a lycanthrope?

SPEAKER_09 15:26

I can transform whenever I can.

SPEAKER_06 15:29

I would more go for the lycanthrope because the lycanthropes are what you see in underworld. It's not, they're not normal werewolves. Um, it's more of the lycanthrope where they can actually control their transformation. So I would love to have that. The only bad part I think is I think it's a blood moon or something that just sends them into a frenzy. Like it doesn't matter what how controlled they are, it sends them into a fucking frenzy. But um, that was the only bad part. And if that's the case, then it is more of a thing if you just have to take all like astrology and stuff and figure out when the next blood moon will be and have the necessary parameters to control yourself. Um and that that is why I would I would love to I would love to have that as I would love to be that type of monster. Where it's like I I can't, I can, it's pretty much a thing of if I control myself, I can be incredibly calculated and smart with it. But if you piss me off, then God help everybody in the area.

SPEAKER_03 16:25

And the surrounding environment, yep.

SPEAKER_09 16:28

So would like would your version of a world so have you watched The Order on Netflix? Yes. So would you like have the like you know where they have the scenes where they are kind of like stuck inside with? Like when it's uh like when you're gonna be able to do it.

SPEAKER_06 16:40

Yeah, would you be able to like communicate with the wall like that? I wouldn't I would try to be more silverbag than midnight. Like the thing about Midnight, I liked how they can control themselves to an extent, but it was when you like Midnight was just bloodthirsty. Like that's the I look at Midnight as the way of that's what I would not like to be, because he was incredibly calculated. If Midnight controlled himself when he transformed, he would be a whole, like, nothing could touch him. I don't think anything, I don't think Silverback would be able to touch him. I think the only difference between him and Silverback was that control over that federal nature that Silverback does have that leads him to make better decisions when he's in his feral form. Um where Midnight a lot of times just seemed like he was pushed more by emotion than he was by anything else, specifically his hate and buggers. And uh, I would like to more so go towards the making rational decisions than just I don't like this dude. Like it's it's pretty much the difference between being somebody from uh this is a screwed up way to say this, somebody from Ana Ronald versus somebody from PG.

SPEAKER_03 17:45

Ouch.

SPEAKER_06 17:46

Wow. I'm PG bread. I'm PG bread, but I know, I know better. So it's like I know better.

SPEAKER_03 17:54

Yes, and then the people who live in the middle and Laurel. Yeah, I get it.

SPEAKER_06 17:56

Yeah, yeah, exactly. Like the people who live in the middle, they're they're all right. But like when you try to go to one or the other, you either get too sorted, too soft or too hard. So just try to try to be that middle graph.

SPEAKER_02 18:11

Yep.

SPEAKER_06 18:12

I'm sorry to nobody for bells.

SPEAKER_08 18:16

I'm gonna bring this on the back lead.

SPEAKER_06 18:20

I'm with a PG WhatsApp. I understand.

SPEAKER_09 18:26

But I know how y'all are. All right, and that is nephew. Well, if anybody from Ana Rundle or Laurel listening right now, I apologize on that bad.

SPEAKER_03 18:40

Laurel was a compliment. I don't I I don't know what that was about.

SPEAKER_09 18:44

Okay, either way, Ana Rundle, I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_03 18:49

So um, next, I guess I'll go next. Um so my creature, or rather, my being, um, it was interesting. I I did quite not extensive research, but I did a little bit of research on who I could say I am or wanted to be. And then I thought, well, I don't want to base it off of something that already exists. So then I kept like preparing for the podcast and making sure everything was great. And then I looked at my name, I was like, oh, duh, duh, Megan. Um, it would easily be thank you, Suchi No Shogun. Now, when I first created the name, it was based off of a four-tier system with a group of friends and myself, and it was based off of the four horselin of the apocalypse, um, the different um natures within Avatar, uh, as well as uh the um different type of leaders of uh organizations and armies. So Suchino Shogun, loosely, and I I I truly say loosely translated, is the earthen warlord. Um, and I also based mine off of um uh Nigerian and African uh heritage by the word shogun, which uh when flipped around can also mean um warlord of shogun. I'm not gonna go into that right now. Anyway, so uh with the Suchino Shogun, because he's an earthen warlord uh warlord, uh he has the ability to create, terraform, and change terrain. Um I've always been fascinated, as you remember from the Avatar episode, in uh Earthfenders and the ability to shape, create, and move Earth. Um, the one thing about the Suchino Shogun, he is a creature that, although stays above the land, is a fortress far above the point in which people can reach. So it's connected to the earth, kind of like uh uh what's his name? Um Dragon Ball Z Tower. Um, how there's that one pillar that's holding the entire thing up, it's based off of a specific uh uh gravitational structure. But the Earthen Warlord has created a specific type of nth metal um that can't be found in uh normal human uh uh uh uh architecture to create his entire palace to be uh uh sturdy enough to be standing on this one pillar far beyond the reaches of normal human beings. While he's up there, he's able to uh create, destroy, and laugh at the insignificant mortals on the earth realm on the earth plane. Now, why is this important? It's because he has the ability also to rule over the creatures of the earth, whether it be plants, uh animals, and different types of earth-based creatures. Uh, so he also has the ability to interact with other creatures from other planets, like uh. Um, beings in other universes, like say a mogo or a uh death planet, uh being able to interact with other beings who are also planetary uh uh creatures. So um I thought of this primarily because the ability to control and prevent the earth from exploding due to pollution and due to uh, as some people say, fracking and other people say digging too deep because they don't want to go all the way to China. Well, I want to prevent the earth from exploding mainly because it's mine. I don't want you to mess it up. If I wanted to, I could eject you all.

unknown 22:37

Huh?

SPEAKER_03 22:39

So let me fucking mess it up. I'm saying this is very Captain Planet, I'm not gonna stop the you know, the stealers and the robbers and the oil spillers. I'm just pretty much gonna put you on a uh a Legend of Zelda, um, not Breath of the Wild, what's the other one? Skyward sword, make all your little uh uh islands float into the sky, and I'm gonna traverse and hold and control the earth realm that's on the ground. So you'll be all above the clouds. You guys uh have your own place. I'll even bring water up to you. Other than that, don't touch the earth. Link, don't fly down. I didn't need your help. I got this. Everybody see this. I got this. Touching the seven deadly sins and shit, unlocking shit on the earth. Did I ask you to do that? Did I say I needed help? Oh, because you want some pussy from uh Zelda. Is that why? Is that what you wanted to do? Makes no sense whatsoever. Come down to Earth after you turn 13 trying to mess up stuff. I had this, I can control this. Thank you. Thank you.

SPEAKER_08 23:38

Huh? I can't breathe.

SPEAKER_03 23:48

I mean, if you really think about it, he like literally was on this place blessed by the skyward goddess, and he jumps off, falls down to earth, and then starts unlocking these these these evils upon the land. That's nothing to do with what's going on in the clouds. Like, if you really think about it, every time he went back up to the clouds, everybody was fine, chilling in their houses, except for Zelda, who was kidnapped, like another princess, but we ain't going there. One was doing it for personal reasons, other one was doing it because they can't control themselves. Anyway, so down on the earth.

SPEAKER_08 24:24

I have a question.

SPEAKER_09 24:25

Yes. So is is is this like a creature or is it more like a spirit? Because it sounds like it could be one or the other.

SPEAKER_03 24:33

It's a spirit. It's a being. That's why I specifically went from creature to being, so it's a spirit, yes.

SPEAKER_09 24:39

Like if you had to describe what kind of like beings, the spirit it is, like, like um, I guess what is what does it look like? I guess I'm I'm interested in like the the aesthetic.

SPEAKER_03 24:50

Uh when I originally envisioned it. When I originally envisioned it, it's it's interesting. I I I never liked uh that's not true. As soon as I played in Justice One or Two, I kind of even before then, I based off the comic books.

SPEAKER_09 25:07

With the Dark Side, it was two.

SPEAKER_03 25:10

It wasn't Dark Side, it was Swamp Thing. Oh, for real. Because Swamp Thing is the creature of the green. So kind of not necessarily that aesthetic, but um it's like a mixture between Swamp Thing and um does anybody remember the Earth Spirit from uh Moana?

SPEAKER_09 25:28

Um um Tamat. Not Tamatoa. No way.

SPEAKER_00 25:32

The Earth Spirit?

SPEAKER_09 25:33

Shit. Like pretty much.

SPEAKER_00 25:37

Yes.

SPEAKER_04 25:39

Oh, yeah, I can't remember her name.

SPEAKER_03 25:41

But it's like a mixture. I can't remember.

SPEAKER_08 25:44

I'm so upset with myself.

SPEAKER_03 25:48

There we go.

SPEAKER_00 25:48

Yeah, yeah, Tafiti.

SPEAKER_03 25:50

Tafiti, yes. So a mixture between, I mean, Gaia's a good example as well. A mixture between Tafiti, Gaia, and um Disney Gangsta was tested, then I felt bad. Mixture between Tafiti, Gaia, and um uh Swamp Thing, just kind of a combination God of War Gaia or Captain Planet Gaia. Whoa, whoa what?

SPEAKER_09 26:09

God of War Gaia or Captain Planet Gaia, Captain Planet Gaia. Okay, okay.

SPEAKER_03 26:15

That was my girl. I was like, oh, you must be uh you must be Storm's uh mother. Uh because I in my in my mind, I was like, if she's as soon as they make a live action, Captain Planet, if uh uh Felicia Rashad does not play Gaia, I ain't watching it. You can't tell me that's not the same person. You can't tell me that's not the same person.

SPEAKER_09 26:37

Huh? Back in the day, wasn't Whoopi Goldberg the voice of that guy?

SPEAKER_03 26:42

Don't get me lying, I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_09 26:44

I don't know. I'll look it up real quick.

SPEAKER_03 26:46

Yes, it was some black woman. Uh yeah, it was some black woman. No, but yeah, it was a mixture between those three entities. Uh, the ability to shape shift, um, the ability to come in in any form, whether you wanted to be a form of a titan or the form of a person, or like you kind of said, I I mean the ethereal spirit was Whoopi Goldberg. I'm sorry. It was Lord Jesus, that's amazing. That just changed my life again. Um, but yes, it doesn't have to be ethereal spirit, but it it definitely would be uh somebody who could be the embodiment of nature, plants, trees, uh earth, anything. Um just the idea of being able to do that. Um I I hated the depiction of an earth bender by the name of Pika. Um, I thought that was um uh uh uh embarrassingly done. Uh it could have been done so much better.

SPEAKER_09 27:32

What Pika for one piece?

SPEAKER_03 27:34

Of course. Um so but yes. Any other questions?

SPEAKER_09 27:41

Does he have the the does the Shogun have a weapon?

SPEAKER_03 27:44

Uh the Shogun's weapon is well, every martial art was based off of some level of watching nature, whether it be plants or whether it be the earth move, water move, so on and so forth. So, because of that, all martial arts were derived and created from the earth. So every single martial art that's known to man, even ones that aren't, are all made by me or by you know the Shoo Chino Shogun. So does he have a weapon? He has all of them.

SPEAKER_09 28:11

A yes. Are we talking like fate Gilgamesh type weapons? Just pull all the shit out of one time. No, no, no.

SPEAKER_03 28:21

In this particular iteration in this universe, Gilgamesh still exists. Uh, we have mutual hate and respect for one another. Um, and as long as we don't bother each other, everything will be cool.

SPEAKER_09 28:34

You stay on your side of the line, I stay on mine. That's how it works.

SPEAKER_03 28:38

I allow him to use my materials to build his pyramids and his thrones and stuff, and he doesn't mess with the guy going on. Simple as that. I will say that as long as the weapons do not create or interfere with other elements, say fire, water, wind, so on and so forth, it's something that I've created. So I'll say I did not create a fan or a flamethrower, uh, but anything that can move or is uh straight up force is uh based off of um or is something that I know how to use or can use. I don't like interfering with my colleagues' work. Any other questions? Awesome sauce. So that means I can throw it to me Skittles.

SPEAKER_00 29:24

Okay, so my creature is a combination of uh mythological creatures that already exist. So I'm hitting uh uh European mythology with um the vampire, and I'm also hitting uh Germanic mythology with the elf, and I am combining them into an elven vampire. Um I'm pretty sure they're out there, I'm sure they existed in video games or or uh LARPing and things of that nature. Um uh so to me it's kind of like kind of essentially like mixing the light and the dark because uh initially in uh an elf was a mythical creature that um while Times was mischievous, um, also helped um regular everyday people. Um while the vampire is looked at as an evil uh being that only lurks in the night and and feeds on uh innocent bodies and souls. Um so the the well, first of all, vampire is always gonna be top tier for me. Um while the the folklore uh don't endanger our friendship. The folklore is like all over the place. There's multiple ways vampires have been depicted over millennia. Um and the most famous vampire, uh Dracula or Vlad the Impaler. Yeah, so yeah. Um I I would I would probably so I would be a little nicer. Like what draws me to vampires is um uh well immortality, uh immortality, the the depiction of being young and beautiful forever, the the luxuriousness of their lifestyle, their sexuality, you know, that that has always drawn me to vampires. They're usually depicted as um just just these sexy, luxurious creatures. Um, even though I said do you need a minute?

SPEAKER_09 31:59

You seem like you need a minute.

SPEAKER_00 32:03

That's all me right there.

SPEAKER_03 32:05

That's all Queen of the Dams, get a girl.

SPEAKER_00 32:09

Exactly. Um only I would not be on I would not be on a Kasha level type of, you know, I I I'm perfectly fine with living amongst the humans um and feeding when I need to feed. Um but it would also be very sexy, very, you know, it almost succubus like, but not to the extent where I necessarily need to kill you unless, you know, you just get a little unless you're strong. It's a strong word, you know.

SPEAKER_01 32:46

I'd say they expired, you know, you know, but expired.

SPEAKER_03 32:53

I feel like we're gonna live in this like New York castle where they're just gonna have legions of men just come in and they're just gonna stuff and then people sponsor it, you know what we can do.

SPEAKER_01 33:13

Everyone can catch this L now. I'm just saying, everyone can catch this L. I'm just saying.

SPEAKER_09 33:20

Wait a minute. Now we we got we got a story, we got our characters, you know. We listen, all we need is the money. Just write us a chat.

SPEAKER_01 33:31

We do need the money for this big ass castle, so please provide.

SPEAKER_03 33:35

Sayoné takes it, takes the energy from one end, Miss Guido takes the blood from the other end, and everybody's happy. I think that works.

SPEAKER_01 33:42

It sounds like a hot ass scene, so you know sign me up.

SPEAKER_00 33:52

It does. What draw well okay, so what draws me to elves is is um one the their ability to either help you or or just like fuck up your situation uh on some you know mischievous mischievous type shit. Um and they are of course supernatural, I'm small, so that that also plays a part. Supernatural, small little beings. But then, you know, me being me being a vampire, I I would like to combine both uh those those creatures into you know one that that lurks in the night, possibly, and then also having the ability to to help people if I want to, if I want to. Or fuck your shit up if I want to. I don't know. I fuck you up and and drink your blood and you know leave you whatever. Um, yeah, so I would go ahead and finish your description. Oh I'll go yeah, so I would definitely be uh an elven vampire. Um just all the in fact, in fact, if you guys are not following me on my my social media.

SPEAKER_03 35:14

Oh no, I've been watching.

SPEAKER_09 35:16

I we've all been watching. Really?

SPEAKER_00 35:19

I have done both. I've done a dark elf and I've done a vampire uh most recently. And yeah, just if you could just if you saw characters as one, that would be me.

SPEAKER_01 35:32

I've used to see Miss Beatles as the vampire. I would do that. Give you my my whichever vein you need, please. Just take it.

SPEAKER_03 35:46

I saw it on accident. I was I was minding my business on Instagram, and I'm not there that often, right? See the top of the page. I'm like, oh my god.

SPEAKER_01 35:53

Right. We're just trying to live our lives and then we have this then higher queen just overtake us. I will help you. I will show you things. Show me the way. I'm ready. Please. I will show you things that you didn't think you needed to sign me up. Oh, I think I'm gonna sign up in uh Miss Gills University. Let's go.

SPEAKER_09 36:26

Ooh, quick question. So as an elven vampire, are you like the spawn of an elf and a vampire, or are you an elf that was turned into a vampire?

SPEAKER_00 36:37

So that that is an interesting because I thought about it because I know from what I researched, uh, typically an elven vampire is an elf that died and somehow came back as a vampire. I'm not sure of the specifics of that, but I think I would if it was my thing, I would have already been an elf and turned by a vampire because I feel like being turned by a vampire would be a sexual activity, and I'm all for that.

SPEAKER_08 37:14

Okay. And then somehow I knew that would be the answer.

SPEAKER_01 37:20

Well, let me know. I'm all for it too.

SPEAKER_05 37:24

I too would be a fight man.

SPEAKER_10 37:26

Right.

SPEAKER_03 37:28

So uh there's a there's an anime that recently came out called Noble S, and um, I don't know if you've seen it, but it's I haven't yet. You haven't yet? Okay, I won't go too deep into it, but it it is. There's a premise, you know, of vampires, which is uh why I thought you might have seen it. Um but the the the concept isn't that you know humans are you know a cattle or you know just food. In this particular premise, the humans are to be protected by vampires. Like it's the vampires' concept and nature that they already know they're you know, for the lack of better words, as Magneto would say, homo superior. But not only that, they know that you know humans are beneath them in capabilities, so it's their thought process, it's their training, it's their religion almost to take care of humans. Oh, humans are so weak. We must protect them from other creatures, other beings, because they don't need to be hunted and destroyed by these people.

SPEAKER_01 38:24

It's like the human PETA.

SPEAKER_06 38:26

So we're like the way they do all monsters, the way they do all monsters is actually really good. How they even do werewolves at Frankenstein's at Frankenstein and how they they actually do go about that, the whole uh I'll say dark universe way of thinking, they literally change the thought process of all of those. Every single one of them, and they they take they take a nice thing that you wouldn't have thought of. Yep, like how, yeah, like a perfect example, how lycanthropes, they don't necessarily use werewolves, but they they have they have werewolves and lycanthropes in two different beings, and they make lycanthropes a tribe while they make werewolves and experiment.

SPEAKER_03 39:10

Yep.

SPEAKER_06 39:11

So is so the way they do that whole concept is actually really good.

SPEAKER_03 39:15

Okay, so I was I brought that up because I was trying to ask. I'm sorry, saying that. Go ahead.

SPEAKER_01 39:19

Oh no, I just I just wanted to know what the difference was, but please go ahead.

SPEAKER_03 39:22

Uh well, you want to say the difference?

SPEAKER_06 39:25

The difference, so the difference between the two is that lycanthropes are actually a tribe, like the vampires, the vampires are what they would call notes. And lycanthropes are a tribe of people who can turn into like human, like wolves, but they're a tribe. You can't become that. You were born into that. That's in your blood, that's in your lineage. Where the werewolf was a project originally started by somebody else, and they finally got to a point, an organization got to a point where they can mass make, well, they made one werewolf who was starting out to be a failed experiment, but slowly grows into his own.

SPEAKER_02 40:08

Yep.

SPEAKER_06 40:08

So it they take the concept that you cannot become a lycanthrope and you'll never be as powerful as a full-blooded lycanthrope. But you can reach a certain height as a werewolf where you might be able to compete with the lower level lycanthrops.

SPEAKER_01 40:23

Yep. That was kind of dreadful, I think.

SPEAKER_06 40:26

Yeah, it's kind of it's kind of the same concept. It's actually kind of the same concept. So they they and they do that a lot. Like they do that, like even the only thing they have been able to mass produce, or like they they can't mass produce vampires, but they have vampires that that kind of play both sides of the field, type.

SPEAKER_02 40:43

They do.

SPEAKER_06 40:44

So it's uh the way they take monsters is really really different.

SPEAKER_00 40:50

I like that. Yeah, I was gonna say uh I I said I was gonna check it out, but I haven't yet, so yeah.

SPEAKER_03 40:57

I I brought it up one, just make sure you check it out if you haven't, and then two, based off of that, to ask you, would you, you know, if you had the option of not, you know, using you and Miss Say One's um herd of men as uh a feeding ground, would you instead not to be it doesn't, you're right, you're 100% correct.

SPEAKER_02 41:19

Oh, it's not any both of them. I'm just saying to cut off the stupidity. So I was just assuming the stupidity came from the guys.

SPEAKER_03 41:31

But I was primarily saying that uh would you consider you know being a nobless or no a noble rather, noble vampire that you know viewed humans as you know, something to be protected, something to be uh kind of like what you were saying about you know the elves, you know, uh helping people, protecting people, so on and so forth. I guess in my mind, as an elven vampire, you would almost be kind of a high tier, although you, you know, as they say sometimes in mythical stories of mug blood or mixed blood, you would still be high enough where, hey, I'm the leader or the liaison between the elves and the vampires. You still can't talk to me any type of way. I still believe humans should be a certain type of way, yet you still got your, you know, your pen of playboys and playgirls in the back. Kind of the way you would be doing it.

SPEAKER_00 42:18

I would absolutely do something like that. Um, like I said, I wouldn't, I I definitely wouldn't be on, you know, Akasha's way of thinking where, you know, they're they're they're mere few food or whatever. Um I would I would be perfectly fine living amongst human beings. Um I'm not protecting trash human beings though, that like like these, you know, murderers, rapists, whatever. That's why I comment on whatever. Yeah. So here we go. I'm starting to go over to the lucky bit right quick. Uh but um yeah, I I would definitely, you know, I feel like there's something to to protect in, I mean, just just being a human myself right now. I feel like there is there are virtues in us that that need to be protected um in our short lives.

SPEAKER_03 43:15

It's interesting. I can see now that um uh the black McCormick was talking about in uh a show or anime, I can actually see that scene on the second episode, like after they've introduced the elven vampire on the first episode and all like some of the friends and things that she does. And on the second episode, um, she's like having a conversation with like a random human and like comes at her sideways. She's like, Oh, okay. You you seem like you're into you know sexy things. I have a friend over here who would be interested in meeting you. Um Miss Sayonet, how are you doing?

SPEAKER_04 43:47

Are you are you free today? I'm telling you, I'm telling you.

SPEAKER_09 43:52

We have we have we have television gold.

SPEAKER_01 44:07

That's what I love. So it's like unexpected. We're both like fun size. So who would expect us to be like, you know, just parading around and causing havoc? It's great. We're the best like colour.

SPEAKER_03 44:25

It is the worst one. That's true. The ones you don't expect. We all expect you. Well, since Kaze decided to jump in, it is your turn, sir. Kaze, your creature.

SPEAKER_05 44:39

All right. As everybody knows or may not know, I'm uh pretty uh undecisive. So uh my uh mine was a journey, so I'm uh I'm gonna take you on it. Uh uh so you know, I you know, at first I like you know, I kind of skidded past the obvious things, you know, the vampire, you know, I came I came to similar issues with the incubus as the doctor did. And uh, and you know, and and and kind of coming, you know, coming to terms as I usually do with my indecisiveness, I kind of landed on a list of hybrids. Um and uh and my first, I guess, honorable mention would be uh uh either either a dampier or or a vampire wherewith hybrid, like uh like Michael Comunica. Um whereas you know, a dam a damper is uh is a half human, half vampire. And that's uh, you know, and that's usually that's usually when a pregnant, pregnant woman gets turned into a vampire and then the and then the child is born, usually they're born like kind of half and half. And uh, and you know, usually um mostly kind of like uh either like a vampire hernady-ish or like a blade-ish, kind of like, you know, not not like not quite uh up upfrontly strong as strong as a vampire, but also, you know, garlic, you know, I like garlic, you know, sunlight's cool.

SPEAKER_10 46:11

Uh you know, sometimes all the real good.

SPEAKER_09 46:20

It is amazing. I wouldn't that's one reason I could never get vampire. I can't give up garlic. It's one of everything. I put it in almost everything.

SPEAKER_01 46:27

Yeah, too much flavor. Can't can't get can't get over that one. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 46:31

I love garlic.

SPEAKER_01 46:34

Yeah, Miss Gill's just gonna have to take her garlic pills just so that she can kind of, you know, you have people take their lacca pills before ice cream, she's gonna have to do that before she cooks. I feel you.

SPEAKER_09 46:45

Sorry, you mentioned garlic, and apparently that hit the whole podcast, which is like, oh yes, God, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 46:54

But yeah, and then the and then the vampire uh werewolf hybrid. Um, I I ultimately couldn't pick it because it was like, you know, it was like really interesting and extremely powerful. But also it's like just not too many examples to draw from. So, you know, I could have came up with my own things, but uh, you know, it seemed it seemed kind of cheap, like, you know, sound like like a little kid, like, oh, I'm gonna I'm gonna jam this and this together, and I'm gonna be both.

SPEAKER_09 47:21

Uh, you know, which I guess creators make things.

SPEAKER_05 47:25

Uh no, that's true. But you know, that it has been like vibe with me. Um I feel that. But uh, so I ultimately uh landed on a uh a uh greater doppelganger. It's uh it's a creature from Dungeons about to say doppelgangers in in general. They're uh they're creatures made by uh spellcasters. And and they and they pretty much uh uh you know they can uh any any uh any like general person or humanoid, uh generally humanoid being or any creature like who's uh who's who's the same size as them or smaller, they can uh they can they can copy. And and uh and once and and once they uh they kind of get in close to something to a person, they can uh they can attack them and eat their brain. And and once they eat their brain, they can uh they they they get all the memories, all the all the abilities of uh of what that creature does. And usually they'll work, and usually they'll work their way through uh through a through a community um you know over over like the course of years, just you know, just offering people and like and becoming as many people as possible. And uh in a great in a greater doppelganger will often like uh control a community of like lesser doppelgangers. And they also have like uh like lesser telepathy and and uh and a great and a greater doppelganger can uh can keep the can keep the form of it can keep multiple different like forms and personalities of former creatures that they eat. So like kind of like uh uh you know after like rogue is like consume somebody, but but they but they can like switch it well. Um what else they can uh also also they uh they have uh they they can sense uh other like shape shapeshifters and they can touch them and force them back to their original form. Um that's petty.

SPEAKER_08 49:32

I wish a baby wouldn't do something like that to me.

SPEAKER_10 49:39

Get back.

SPEAKER_05 49:43

You're gonna be the best liar in the room. You mean you ain't just gonna let you know lesser deceptives like you know live live and breathe next to you. Um but uh but no, yeah, something about the the versatility, the the the the opportunity to live to live all these like different experiences out over the course of uh years, because you know, as you know, as they get their new bodies, they they as long as long as they have like things to turn into, they can more or less live forever. Um and uh, you know, also the you know, the whole imposter syndrome thing that that kind of folded up in there too. Um but uh yeah, the uh yeah, doppelganger really spoke to me.

SPEAKER_09 50:35

So for your fact that somebody can touch you and then knock you out of your shit, that's that really fucked me up. I was the I'm really mad about that.

SPEAKER_07 50:47

I had no idea the powers are so extensive, you know, because I was just like doctor no, they're a shapeshifter. But yeah, there's a whole lot that goes into, you know, that kind of comes along with that. And you know, being able to absorb and live effectively have all these lived experiences, yeah, that's pretty, that is pretty powerful.

SPEAKER_05 51:06

Yeah, no, it's it's amazing. Like some of the some of the better uh like pre-written stories in D D have like come into like a like you know, like a king, uh, like a like you know, there's like been a well-loved king, uh king, and like, and you know, and you get and and you get you get one-on-one with him and and come to find out a doppelganger replaced him when he was five. And and and he's been and he's been running a goddamn good kingdom. But you know, and and a few and a few people have been disappearing here and there. But uh, but no, he's just he's just been enjoying his good run. And now, and now uh you're about to get your brain eaten so he can continue. That's wild. But no, it's it's it's a it's fascinating the lot the level of detail that a lot of uh Dungeons and Dragons uh creatures get get given. It's like usually like uh they they get like whole like regions of continent and it's like history and it's culture. And uh yeah, it's really uh it's it's really fascinating.

SPEAKER_03 52:09

What would you say would be the core usage of your creature's abilities and where would it norm where where would be your kind of uh stomping grounds, your region of of location, of locale?

SPEAKER_05 52:23

Uh well very very specifically I chose it because it could be anywhere. He could it could go anywhere and be anywhere. So uh in in in in my theme of not being able to choose, I wouldn't have to can't argue that science.

SPEAKER_03 52:41

Alright. Any other questions for the uh greater doppelganger?

SPEAKER_09 52:48

What do you think would be your most frequent activity as a greater doppelganger?

SPEAKER_05 52:53

Um me personally, I think I would just I think I would less less uh be a super uh what's the word? I don't think I don't think I would so much be like a creature of habit so much as I would I would I would do I would do my best to uh live each each particular existence to the fullest just because I have the unique ability to do so. So, you know, whatever whatever you know whatever mode of behavior or actions that that per that would that person would take or should have taken is generally what I would, you know, until until I board of that particular identity, then I start uh you know sniffing out a a new.

SPEAKER_00 53:42

What if what if they are murderer? Uh I mean uh it doesn't have too much of a fullest you can live that life to the serial killer lifestyle to the fullest.

SPEAKER_05 54:08

I mean, you know, not not not that you're gonna have me telling myself, but um I I guess I guess it depends on what what drove that particular being to murder. Whereas if uh you know, like if it was somebody who went through some fucked up like psychoses and had a I had a bad childhood and I lacked the things and I'm mad and I kill people now, I don't know I don't need I don't need that. But um but you know, but if it was like you know, like you know, like you know, someone who uh was like, you know, like you know, like raped in a young age by a noble family, and then they like ended up being conscripted in that family, like as a servant or something, and you know, and they made it they wanted their life purpose to kill everybody. I can I can help them out with that. You know, like you know, they're not around to say that I can do that for them. You know, they're not around all of NJ.

SPEAKER_01 55:08

Any side effects or weaknesses?

SPEAKER_05 55:11

Oh, that's a good question. Uh well, uh the the major major weakness is another uh major uh major doppelganger because again, we we know we know the other ones lie and we don't and we don't trust each other. Um honestly a core a core a core uh thing of the doppelganger is it it it live it lives off of lying to others. So the biggest it the the main thing is make it sure of is that it's not being deceived. Um so yeah, another another greater doppelganger uh or or a high-level shape shifter uh being a near is sent things it don't like. Also any uh any high-level spell that would uh reveal your true form or or someone's ability to see what's what something like actually looks like. Um because they they look they look like uh like almost like stereotypical um like uh like gray aliens, like big heads, big eyes. Or really uh like reduced like uh features. Um like really langly. Uh yeah, they're not much to look like look at in their original form.

SPEAKER_09 56:29

I mean, I would be shape shifting too.

SPEAKER_05 56:31

Uh yeah.

SPEAKER_09 56:33

Every day. Every day. Oh uh good lord, is that what I gotta see in the morning?

SPEAKER_01 56:42

Let me put on let me put on Gwyn today.

SPEAKER_05 56:49

Don't do that, these though. I said the core of the core of the weakness.

SPEAKER_01 56:53

I realized that was, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 56:57

Uh the core of their weakness is uh is pretty much the truth, usually, usually mad.

SPEAKER_03 57:02

So my question is you stated that you could you uh well you said like rogue, you could have the abilities and memories of people that she's touched. Of course, you're eating their brains, but the difference is you can switch between them. So it's actually two questions. So the first question, first question is is it similar to rogue where those personalities are fighting each other because you have so many, or because you can switch between them, they're completely separate.

SPEAKER_05 57:29

Um, I think uh no, this it's he it's it's pretty much like a button. I can uh I I can like it open up a file. And that's visually in my head what I saw living like a document file.

SPEAKER_06 57:43

So you're more Legion than Roe.

SPEAKER_05 57:45

Hmm. Uh yeah, but also but Legion also had a massive lack of control, too.

SPEAKER_06 57:50

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 57:52

Okay, and then the second question, you brought up the example of um the king who uh had been replaced at the age of four, um, and that uh doppelganger living out his life as this now adult or teenager, however old the king was. How old doppelgangers age or what what is their life span or expectancy if they can go from you know living out the life fully of one person, then maybe eating a child or a child's brain and then living out that person's like uh life. So what is the life expectancy, or do they start over, or they like Oro Tomaru, who you know you eat somebody younger and now you have an a a longer life? Like what is actually the because I was thinking over tomorrow would be a good comparison, but I'm not too sure yet.

SPEAKER_05 58:37

Actually, no, Roshumaru is a great, great comparison. Yay! Yeah, they're more or less stealing the the lifespan of uh of what it is.

SPEAKER_03 58:48

So you'd be a role tomorrow. Good choice.

SPEAKER_01 58:51

How would a relationship work? Like how would a relationship work with a doppelganger? Are you guys like a lone wolf? I'm just curious, like how I'm building a story in my head.

SPEAKER_05 59:06

Like the king, like the king, the like the king I mentioned, he he was like, he was like in his 40s, and he had um and he had a whole family. So like the you know, the a relationship would work perfectly fine until you find out the truth.

SPEAKER_01 59:22

And then what happens? He kills the whole family, he would have to before they kill you.

SPEAKER_05 59:27

I mean it depends if I, you know, if if you're actually there they they are typically uh inherently evil, um, which is something I couldn't personally uh completely claim. But um, but I I like to think that if an actual attachment was uh if an actual attachment was made, they probably just kind of disappear before uh if they if they figure if they thought like something was about to the truth was about to come, they probably disappear before they came to the point where they're making that trip to the store.

SPEAKER_10 1:00:06

I want to get some cigarettes.

SPEAKER_03 1:00:13

Um one important question, it's not important, but you said that doppelgangers and mimics and you know shape shifters can sense when they're in the presence or around um other ones, and they don't like that because you know a doppel, uh, a a greater doppelganger, a stronger shapeshifter. Well, specifically a greater doppelganger, you said if they touch another one or a shapeshifter, it will undo the the shifting, correct?

SPEAKER_05 1:00:40

Uh yeah, so it's like a it's like a violent uh a violent undoing of the transformation. Like you're you're you're like rip ripping the skin off.

SPEAKER_03 1:00:48

Oh, so similar to like what um Miss Mar Miss Martian or um John Jones uh does to other Martians when they're shapeshifted.

SPEAKER_01 1:00:57

But why though? Why do that?

SPEAKER_03 1:00:59

To unveil the fact that they've been lying to everybody else.

SPEAKER_01 1:01:04

Right, that is some heavy shit. Like they're there's shape shifting too. This is Allian Buckard, like you're shape shifting, take your mask off. That's okay.

SPEAKER_05 1:01:15

I mean, honestly, it's kind of it's mostly built around the uh just the culture of the species. Like they're they're meant they're built to be solitary, so it's kind of like you know, like a deer, uh a deer, a deer has antlers mostly to fight other deer and attract other deer.

SPEAKER_10 1:01:32

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 1:01:33

Um it helps if to defend themselves against like predators, but primarily, you you know, you usually they'll run from the predator. Primarily it's yeah, uh attract my wife and fight these other niggas so I can get so you know, so that's you know, they're they they have a primary uh they just have a primary ability to to fight each other because they don't have any, you know, natural predators. You know, they they're pretty much just playing the game, you know, with themselves and and they're and they're naturally distrusted. So is there a range? Uh it's it's it's personal. You literally have to like like grab a nigga and and like yeah, open uh like if you uh if you remember Siler from Heroes. Mm-hmm. Yeah.

SPEAKER_10 1:02:26

Yes, yes, yes. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:02:28

Well, I meant I meant a range to sense, because I was thinking like if the king was in the throne room sitting on his throne, and then some random person came in to have an audience with the king, and then they were another doppelganger, would they be able to sense it from the king's throne to where they're kneeling on the floor?

SPEAKER_09 1:02:45

Or would they be able to like know as soon as they walked into the building?

SPEAKER_03 1:02:48

Right. That's what I'm trying to figure out the range, that range of sensing.

SPEAKER_01 1:02:52

I think story-wise, it makes it, I would say, um I would say story-wise would be better if it's kind of like within, I would say, I don't know, like a 20-feet vicinity. Because if you might have doppelgangers all around the palace, yeah, that would make you know, whoever is the main doppelganger really anxious and and you know, and have high anxiety. So I think, you know, for story-wise, it would probably be like within, I would say, like in a big room radius per se. Because like if they're like in the other city, like, oh my god, I'm bringing out the right over.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:31

I would say like a citywide or room-wide, but they couldn't pinpoint it story-wise, of course, not you know, specifically to how uh D D works, but if it was like if they can't pinpoint it, or because the one I guess in my story that Kaze was building in my head, where you know he was specifically saying, you know, doppelgangers don't trust one another. So you don't trust one another. You know, if I was the king, I would specifically say, hey, look, I know you don't trust me, I don't trust you, but I'm the king. If you're living in this realm that I've created or that I have, I can make sure you live a good life and you can even work in the palace as long as you don't double cross me, stay inside the palace and be like the other person who can throw off this person's sensing of me being a doppelganger, and you you can live for the rest of your life, at least in this region, a good ass shit. So that would be my thought process. But Kyle did find it.

SPEAKER_06 1:04:20

But Champlain, I was gonna say what you just described, Kyle, any kind of anime where you go pick the guy that you know is inherently evil, the kids go pick this guy who's inherently evil dealer. You make a deal with me, and then maybe it'll be cool. And then sooner or later he gets drunk. And then I'm like, Why did you portray me? Well, it's in my nature, yeah. It's like the whole story about how the scorpions is scorpion and the fog, when the scorpion across the river, yeah, and so he's like the father's not the same. He's like, Yeah, man, the problem's got to do it. Like, why did you do it? And it's like, dude, it's in my nature. Yep.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:56

And now we're both gonna die.

SPEAKER_06 1:04:58

Now we're both gonna die because my nature is just too busy.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:00

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 1:05:03

A vampire, you know, if you have if you're dangling, you know, blood in front of a vampire, it's not just going to walk away like, all right, cool, you know, I ate this morning. No, there's no problem.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:13

After Dracula's wife got killed, he didn't drink no blood.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:20

You got a lot of people.

SPEAKER_01 1:05:29

But like, if you know, if if I was a human, I was stuck to this. If I was a human and I walked in front of mystipples, and you know, I had a little bit of dripping on the neck, and I'm all I'm walking in front of I'm gonna see darting eyes from my face to my neck, it's just gonna be you know, kind of really tensive.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:52

And the skills gonna be like dark meet up what's in the happening. I'm not gonna go girl you something you you you you you you upgraded your level now you now you trying to talk me with your blood a little you trying to girl we roommates you we got all these all these people trying to get me now mm-hmm I I'm just saying maybe a big ass mosquito land on my neck and then you know some other mosquitoes you fucking listen in the world of vampires and subjects yes there is some fucking Jumunji size mosquitoes in this room sit there with other people talking about something like you wouldn't have to come in like you'd be right in it like I don't know maybe it'd be stealth mosquitoes we don't know we live in a crazy mosque you never know okay like sniper rifles like a little night vision dollars it's not a range I'm just letting you know they watch it happen too crazy shit happens you never know did you find it sorry uh no it didn't exist but just based on the uh level of creature it was and also the just just the range needed for it to uh work within a certain range officially I'd say is closer to what you said like no not not necessarily like citywide but definitely like you know it be able to sense at least within hundreds of thousands of feet could well yeah nothing I can say about that all right so now ladies and gentlemen I would like to uh welcome you to the black mccoy university we are encroaching upon the uh new year of classes I got a new voice for us and I want you to make sure you have your paper and pens prepared for Professor McCoy's lecture on the creature feature extraordinaire now welcome the black McCoy I despotted you excuse me if I get my reading voice on huh all right the ancient tomes foretold of a creature amidst the throngs of the mortal and the living it would be born during a time of great calamity and resistance during a time of revolution and the deterioration of mortal realm the text foretold of an eldritch child born of this world but not of its faiths, compassions, values and mortal ambitions.

SPEAKER_09 1:08:52

The child it warned would have the skin of the mud of the earth and a mind of the air born from the stars as they bore water from the heavens. The mortals that carried this ancient knowledge colonized the planet in search of the eldritch child, a child of mud and mind of air bearing water and the end of days. They enslaved thriving civilizations decimated entire cultures, traditions, defiled the bodies that bore children as well as the children themselves, all in the name of preventing the end of days. All in search of the children of the child's true form, skin as dense as the mountains, eyes devoid of hue, many faces and unnumbered limbs, a creature with teeth capable of ripping the soul from one's flesh and a whisper that boils a beating heart and withers the lungs a horror whose laughter drains blood to nourish the soil and tears that burn faith, hope and flesh alike into nothingness. Each generation foolishly became the harbinger of this communion with their realm as they ravaged their mortals, savagely abused the land, sea, and air and even took to the heavens to search for the child. Alas their efforts unbeknownst to them and their naive fear were all for naught the child would come as the poems foretold. As they modernized continuing to subjugate and oppress the world habitually awaiting an arrival they no longer believed would come. The child was born. A child was born of mud and earth a mind of air pouring down from the heavens as the stars bore water. It was born and it was good. The horror's blood had been spilled onto the grounds of the mortal world and its cries echoed throughout the high heavens and the neighboring worlds. Within this practically normal baby beat the brazen craving for mortal blood. This craving however knew that now was not the time to unleash itself upon the world. It hungered and was still weak but it was not incapable. The hunger within the Eldritch child grew as they did. The child learned the ways of the world and each step along the way their hunger fed. It devoured the lives of those next to the child broke spirits and trusts of those who merely had the capacity to feel the hunger broke the will of men and maddened women to take the lives of their children. The hunger inhaled the malice and hope of the vagabonds and rulers then sipped upon the love and compassion of the powerful and the meek. It fed for so long through love, loss, empathy, sorrow, and vengeance and yet the hunger never wavered. Then after twenty years of feeding the hunger began to reach the hunger discovered that it could touch things. It felt the lives of mortal creatures in the forest seas tundra and jungles the hunger felt the skies and the mortal creatures that dared to risk their lives to soar through its poison clouds. For the first time the hunger felt compassion for mortal creatures and for the first time the hunger knew what it meant to be satisfied dissatisfied. The hunger was forever insatiable but its nourishment was simply that it now craved adequate sustenance. For years following they extended one arm and then another to torch the earth, twist the wind and sea, poison the hearts of humans more than their fear already had over millennia. Monuments fell, loved ones needlessly perished they knew nothing but suffering and more vicious suffering for the same the joyous became fat on their prosperity and the hunger fed from it. It siphoned the resentment from the suffering of the joyous and the joyous of the suffering. It was after all this that the hunger of the eldritch child knew ecstasy from its sustenance. The eldritch child knew true joy as the child grew older the hunger grew warmer more insatiable and more vicious the child and the hunger always having known the other's company knew the time grew nigh for their awakening the conditions often known to the mortals as the four horsemen were merely tales to warn of the coming of the eldest child. Great war will ravage the planet famine will become the parasite of global class warfare pestilence will celebrate itself with insidious silence in a warm embrace and death shall reap the harvest of her sisters. These are all nothing but the reach of the eldest child, the child and its hunger the child still lying in wait dreams of the awakening awaiting the day their skin melts from their mortal bones and the hunger takes form the many eyes of archangels and countless limbs of the old one reaching beyond the borders of mortal minds the jowls wide enough to inhale air from the lungs of all the all those unfortunate enough to stand before it eyes that multiply and stare into the pits of desire and drawing from each bowl's race, imprisoning the mortal body fortuis never knowing happiness nor relief wings that block the light of the sun and submerge the land into an abyss from which the ancient terrors of the world can flourish and feed the eldest child they say still rests and is feeding awaiting the fall of humankind at their true power however until then I will wait I will continue to hunger and I will continue to feed thank you this has been a reading of the gospel of McCoy so a quick question I feel like this is an allegory for something is it an allegory for life or are you an amoeba so what is this I feel like this is an allegory for something is this an allegory for life or are you an amoeba it's Satan there wasn't an allegory for anything in my and it didn't start out that way I just started writing and it just kept going and we it became whatever it became so you just wrote this like yesterday yeah so you just sat down with 10 and people on keyboard it was good.

SPEAKER_03 1:14:57

So you need to start writing books because that's like you haven't had sustenance and I'm like yes continue please if you if you saw I you were reading so eloquently so you probably weren't watching our reactions because at first Miss Sayone and Miss Skittles they were you know jokingly holding up their notebooks and their pens but as you started to uh purvey your truth they slowly started to drop their pencils and pens and they started to gracefully look into the screen watching as each word was coming off of your tongue as each word was looking the ears uh uh of of youth they didn't even know what was going on like it's kind of like saying if somebody pins on this tension I take that shit like that's pretty much what that was like I was in your world I had to clean my glasses twice I was like you didn't really attention this I don't think anybody has any questions but does anybody have any questions?

SPEAKER_09 1:15:59

It's insane no no no no so um I was thinking when I was go ahead but when I was thinking about it I was like I was trying to figure out if that would be you know suitable and kind of like Jose I went through you know kind of I went through werewolves and I went through vampires and I went through um absolutely not zombies um I went through a lot of different creatures like sphinxes and things of that nature and then I thought I remembered um in the last season of Sabrina when they um were talking about the old gods and the the eldritch terrors and so I thought about something that would be I thought of something that would be terrifying world ending cataclysmic um mystical and yet innocent at the same time so I thought about a child and so I named it the Eldritch child um and I wanted to create something that was representative of myself who was a child of mud you know darker skin and of earth and uh um because I I went with a mind of air because I'm like Aquarians aren't air science so I went with that and born from you know stars as they bore water from the heavens which is the water bearer the Aquarius and so as I started writing I was like well if there's something that tells of this kind of creature then you know people want to be on the lookout for it. And so who would be on the lookout for something that would do anything um to try and stop it and I thought you know white people would do some shit like that. So then I kind of worked in the more historical element of like colonizing and you know following this kind of mythos that would lead people to do the the crimes against humanity that they've um you know committed over the over the course of human history. And then I decided that if this child or this creature or this being is going to exist, then it would be unfathomable for them to just simply exist and wait. And then I thought more about um Danian from the Omen and how things around him would happen even though he wouldn't really do anything specifically and it was the and then I came up with the hunger that lived alongside the eldest child or was like the the core of the eldest child who had a re who discovered it had a reach beyond simply everything that was immediately around it. And so I started thinking about everything that's happened you know all the the the important historical events all the people who've died all the wars that started um all the and I thought about the global pandemic that we're in now I thought about so many different things and everything that I perceptually kind of lived through since I was born and I thought that you know what what if all of these things happening were simply building up to this one larger cataclysmic event this one this one world ending event from this being who lives beyond the the the kind of um human relationship to like higher power or God or spirituality or even the the notion of the end the end times or you know the end of human history and then I came up with this creature who was actually born from human beings and allegorically speaking um became the reckoning that humans feared the most and although still far beyond humans in its power was born of humans and lives among humans and continues to feed upon the the very thing that they're afraid of most. And um I thought that that was representative of me insofar as I'm getting to that part representative of me insofar as like one of the things that I love to do is siphon being a weird word to use right now but bear with me siphon off of the people around me in a way that allows me to garner a deeper kind of understanding or appreciation or um you know just analysis or um of the the world around me and the world that they exist in and the world that we share. And I think that the reach that the hunger has for the child is what that's supposed to be. And if you make that that if you make those intentions or that feeling that much more malicious then you find a creature with the ability to not only affect the lives of others but affect the the things that they care about most and able to extend that far beyond just someone who's right in front of them but to everything that's kind of very interconnected. And if anyone's like ever had that conversation with me I think things are kind of inherently interconnected so it's like being able to knock over multiple dominoes at once that would lead to this awakening that continues to like sit on the back burner um of human fear. Because um and I also thought about what was it I can't remember the name of it but um I thought of no I remember now I thought about how um like um I don't know if and I'm pretty sure everyone's heard the phrase like God is dead and God is dead but the whole phrase is God is dead and we have killed him and it's like and I thought about that being the premise for like everyone was worried about this thing before and it's why so many things in the world happened until eventually this thing just became normal and no one was worried about it anymore. And it's kind of this representation of the world moving from this path of like mysticism and spirituality and religion into a more um technological or modern age and that kind of disassociation from um the the fear of some s something divine or something um you know something mystical being the thing to take out the world and moving towards the world being the thing to take out the world but something inherently mystical driving that force to um or driving that kind of pathway to ending the world so question. Yeah um and this is after listening to what you just said did you knowingly not knowingly pretty much write about the child being man or black man and the hunger being change no I wrote more so the child being just me a black child um and the hunger being more of a the the state of the state of nature or the kind of natural culling ability of um the of nature um because I think I have this more kind of radical idea that a lot of the things that happen that human beings fight against um are are natural population control in their own way like they have their own utility as far as I'm concerned um but that's neither here nor there right now I'm not going against that larger discussion right now. But yeah that's that's kind of more so how I saw the hunger because it's like it has these potentially like really problematic implications about the value of human life and the need of human life and you know being and the multiplicity of human life. But I think I use the hunger to um embrace the idea that the the value of human life is just as is just as expendable as an idea as actual human life and how that has continued to be thematic throughout the way humans involve themselves with one one another over the course of time.

SPEAKER_06 1:23:57

On a whole nother note this will have to be a conversation between Aquarians podcast to the third eye that'd be off uh but it's that's really the fact you just wrote that all out like in just one sitting that's that's incredible exactly we can set that up for February so that's gonna be the shortest conversation dude really because of my mindset where I'm from nah it's just gonna be a talking it's just gonna be fun bring some other aquarians so uh or maybe even make it like that's another conversation from that time.

SPEAKER_09 1:24:33

All right so that no because then we're gonna need a Leo episode and I don't know if I want all that smoke for Tiffany.

SPEAKER_01 1:24:39
