One of the things that I love to see in hive city art is the recognition that even the large, open spaces are all indoors. Pillars of incredible girth uphold the vaults, above, and the conurbation stacked thereupon. You could live your entire life in the literal strata of your social station and never know a world beyond it.

Even the comparatively nice places are an overbuilt megalopolitan horror. Darktide has been exceptional in this regard, and continues to deliver.

You carved open my heart can’t just leave me to bleed

What if we kissed in the bewitched circus tent hiding amid the cursed mists of Barovia?

Elisabeta was in a dire situation where she was losing a lot of HP & needed to recover her energy quickly. She had also seen Yakov flirting with another person & gotten jealous, so it was hand in hand using her dhampiric nature for her benefit while it also controlled her. Yakov, on the other hand, was casually flirting with a friend and did not wish to risk Elisabeta’s identity being revealed, so he did not necessarily cheer her on or boo her. However, when she approached him, catcalling and hollering at him in Deep Speech, a language that only they can understand, he was immediately excited and allowed her to pull him in harshly for the bite-kiss.

Places: The Carousel

And the seasons they go 'round and 'round

And the painted ponies go up and down

We're captive on the carousel of time

We can't return we can only look behind

From where we came

And go round and round and round In the circle game.

The Manager and her fucked up little Phrog

All of my current ocs for WBH so far. 1. Nisroch Fetish: Sitophilia Country: (Originally) Heaven (Previously) Paradise Lost (Currently) Abbadon

Originally a fallen angel and Heavens acclaimed chef, he had befriended Lucifer before his fall, following his friend to Hell. He is the one demon who can cook, bake and entertain Beelzebub enough for the Wandering King to stay still. Not that Beel doesn't like the Carnival. Hes a regular. He was favoured by God because of the food he created, and his skills were reknown through Heaven and Hell before he fell. Sometimes, even the fallen angels of Paradise Lost come to eat some of the food he makes just to have a taste of home.

2. Evie Halliwell Fetish: All Philia Country: (Originally) Human world, Korea (Currently) Hell

Is the protaganist of my game. Unbeknownst to her and Minhyeok, her mother was one of the demons who lived among the humans and actively protected her from the Angels. This protection ran out when Evie reached the age of majority, when Gabriel killed her parents. Evie had a great relationship with her parents, and they adored her more independant nature. Her parents were known to be eccentric artists, her mother working as an high school Art Teacher and her father was a voice actor/theatre actor. While being half demon, Evie has the welcoming good nature of her human father, but the more cut throat devilish side from her mother. She is stronger than a normal human her size, and at nearly 6 foot 3 she is quite tall for the Korean average, which added to her imposing figure. 3. Vacca Fetish: Impregnation Fetish Country: Abbadon

A demon who works in Abbadon's premier Toy Store, located within the Carnival's premises. Vacca was an orphan that Lilith found one night after an Angel raid on Abbadon. She was raised with Rosier as children of Lilith and became loyal to her. Vacca disapproves of Rosier's litter of children he regularly sires, but has enough love for them when they visit with their father. Vacca's fetish is single handedly promised when she bet against Asmodeus in a challenge and won her wish of being able to impregnate other demons. Though not as scummy as her adopted brother, she does have three children she pays child support too. She adores her babies. 4. Ariel Fetish: Nyctophilia Country: (Originally) Heaven (Previously) Paradise Lost (Currently) Abbadon Another Fallen Angel, Ariel was one of the more cherished angels who saw all of God's creations as loving members of his family. This put him at odds with Michael and Gabriel. He fell from grace outside of the other fallen angels because he rescued Lilith from the punishment of the archangels. He had his wings torn from his back and his mouth sewn shut by Raphael before he was thrown to hell. Lucifer found Ariel in the depths of Paradise Lost where he took pity on the Angel and took him into his ranks. While Ariel looks fondly on the time he spent at Lucifers side, he was bullied for his kind and generous nature. Ariel ran from Paradise Lost after coming into contact with Lilith again, who had at this time fully transitioned into a Devil. He then became her right hand man and second in command. Ariel hosts nightly moon Masses that are attended by those devils who are wayward, unloved and not cared for. This means he has a following of three legions worth of devils and other fallen angels loyal to him and Lilith.

5. Lilith Fetish: Consentual non Consent Country: (Originally) Eden (Currently) Abbadon Lilith was originally made of the earth, like Adam by God. She disagreed with Adam about her place in Eden, leaving shortly after. She was pursude by the Angels, who beat her and killed her children. Lilith was found by Ariel, who had healed her enough to allow her travel to Hell. His close friend, Asmodeus allowed her in his kingdom on the proviso that she cared for the devil's ability to not bear children. She was able to use a mixture of angel blood and a rare plant of Hell to concoct the medicine that allowed Devils to procreate. After this she was cleared of all debt she was owed to Asmodeus who had in turn given her a small part of Abbadon to create a small commune. This place officially became the Carnival and the surrounding city of Pandora. The Carnival and Pandora became a hotspot in Abbadon, many devils and some few angels visited this place. An uneasy truce for their visit was strictly enforced by the legions of Ariel's until the Archangel Uriel committed the largest slaughter of devils in Hell, numbers varying from 10,000 all the way up to 50.000 in one day. Lilith, and those who remained of her forces rebuilt Pandora and the Carnival. This was also the time Lilith found the infants Vacca and Rosier. After this event, Pandora was fortified with dark magic and enriched with the blood of angels and Lilith called for live angels to be bought to Pandora to become the walls of her city. Pandora became known as the City that was built on Angels.

6: Rosier Fetish: Parthneophila Country: Abbadon Rosier is known as one of the devils who are active on Earth. He is known as a depraved and despicable devil even amongst the darker devils. Don't let his smile and beautiful face charm you, especially when you see him in the wild. On Earth he is well known to take the form of newly married men on wedding nights, especially to those who are young and particularly religious. He has sired so many children this way, Asmodeus (who has done very similar on earth) has threatened to castrate the devil. Lilith has barred him from procreating in Abbadon, going so far as to tattooing his arms with a charm to block any of his magic to be used outside of emergency situations (That is why he wears long sleeved gloves or shirts.) At this moment his child count is over 100 and with triple the count of grandchildren since the human 60's. And thats all that I have so far, I have cooked up some others but im missing information. Thanks for reading!

i am hiding from normal social media so i’m only posting this here for now but i’m at my brothers place and he has this frog from our childhood and it is 100% the same one i wrote into The Carnival good night

dhampir hunger

They thirst for other's stories. The good, the bad, the ugly. It's great to be a bard.

If they can eat dreams they may as well eat stories of others. I kinda want it for a character from The Carnival Domain of Dread..

Jervaise: Well, Miriam, you’ve been in more fights than all of us because I remember one time we were going to start a band but there was an altercation and you just beat the shit out of somebody with a trombone case.

Mrs Plenty: That’s correct, I knocked him right on his ass.

I’m not drawing all the clowns in the carnival but weird shops has one and here’s one of it’d many night clowns

I’ll make a post on how my clowns work later

"It is toward the unexplored peaks... Oh unlearned people, that I steer my body, strong stiff... and far from feeble... The road will be long and challenging riddled with strife... All begin at my lifes dawn... while on the lap of my father, a man of renown and brawn... Allow me to make myself clear... if I have crossed half my lands in order to find myself in this village so drear, it was a breath of divine grace that led here... Mens divinor!"

Foligatto.

The next arc of my campaign is going to be the Carnival (+ Barovia 2 Electric Boogaloo). Since my players are level 20 and will otherwise completely rip ass, I’ve decided instead that for the introduction... they’ll be playing as their kids. They’ll get to wander around with Kjosev at a spooky carnival and absolutely nothing will go wrong and nobody will be kidnapped and CERTAINLY nobody will be taken as leverage by a vampire lord named Strahd.
