I love showering everything I create in inspiration from Greek mythology. Especially with symbolic names. Khalios' mother's name was Penelope. His best friend was named Ithaca. Ithaca and Arcadia are siblings(both names are places in ancient Greek). Psyche is named after the goddess of Psyche and the wife of Eros. I can go deeper into everything if wanted but god I love Greek mythology and tangling it into everything I make.

What did you wish for?

Btw Arcadia did the embroidery on Psyche's skirt :] she's such a good partner and is really good with things like that

i love you necromancy i love you time travel i love you stories where refusing to confront your grief and regret causes you to create something much worse

Banna :]

I feel like it's very important to me to introduce this guy to y'all. More posts to come, once I get things organized. But for now. Him🖤

Just some general info about Khalios, Psyche, Arcadia, and general world things

Cw for cults and animal death.

-Khalios was raised by a cult, as a god, and therefore can be...more than a bit of an asshole all of the time.

- The cult was consisted primarily of Ai'valii which are an elf like race, adjacent to humans but with increased innate magic, cat-like pupils and, of course, pointed ears.

- Arcadia is an Ai'valii

-Arcadia, Psyche, and Khalios all have excess amounts of magic within them, moreso than what is the norm for this world but each centered around a specific element. Arcadia is life. Psyche is love. Khalios is death.

-To go along with each element, their is a god personifying it. Both the death and love gods are deer-like.

- The mortal name of the love goddess is I'ona, but she is also referred to as: the stag Queen and the matron of the heart. He personifes all love, not just romantic.

-Gods are made of pure magic and often, in cases when they are wounded, those remnants of them will form into "God Beasts". God Beasts can also be formed purely accidentally, like in cases when a gods presence lingers too long in one place.

- Another similar situation is The God Children, where a divine being will willingly remove a piece of their magic from themselves and form it into a sentient being, often sharing traits with both them and their divine animals.

- the act of killing a god beast, regardless of which god it belongs to, is seen as one of the most damning acts possible.

- That being said, Khalios has killed a god beast before. An emperor's Hound, the beast of death. The act was one commanded to him by the people who raised him, a sorts of ritual sacrifice to the true death god at the hands of his soon to be vessel.
