I think this describes the dynamic well enough (well enough for a dumb meme anyway)

So, while going through old files of old artwork that is unfinished because I either lost inspiration and stopped or I just completely hated what my brain come up with, I came across some pieces that I drew, painted, photographed, and/or distorted heavily in Photoshop, that I thought might be cool for my new melt creation that I am calling, 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑇𝑒𝑙𝑙-𝑇𝑎𝑙𝑒 𝐻𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑡.

I’m loving this vibe 🖤

Thoughts on Ravenloft and Cristian Influence in the Gothic Horror Genre

I want to briefly note that Gothic-Horror isn't innately Christian, However, Christian Mythology and Ideals are baked into it's themes and archetypes, and the way this affects Gothic-Horror in settings that are overtly not Christian is interesting.

Also, here a "Cristian Setting" refers to one where the christian god is confirmed-- indirectly or otherwise-- to exist, is the "top deity" and still all-loving. IE, Shin Megami Tensei isn't.

Ravenloft is interesting because it's a campaign setting in D&D lore, meaning that it's openly polytheist.

In Ravenloft, A pair of fairly interesting concepts exist, namely, Dark Lords and the Dark Powers.

A critical Piece of the Gothic-Horror Genre is a Transgression, A specific act in word or deed that opposes the "natural order", causing a character to be Corrupt/Evil/Sinful/Tragic, etc.

For example, Dracula forsakes god, Dr.Frankenstein creates the Monster, etc.

In Ravenloft Lore, a Dark Lord is essentially a character who performs a transgression, whereas the "Dark Powers" are essentially whatever punishes/curses them to their torment.

For example, Dracula can Never Reunite with his Lover, Frankenstein's Monster kills him, etc.

So, the Dark Powers are essentially a Pantheon of tormentors designed to enforce the rules of a Gothic Horror Story, IE, transgression against the natural order, tragic villains who curse themselves, etc. In Gothic Fiction proper, this role is usually assigned to god.

So, Are the Dark Powers Angels of an unseen analogue to the Cristian God, or am I tripping?
