Whilst I'm definitely going to make both of them. It'll be more of a one at a time deal.
Anyways...
Creating a sona/oc for cotl
Closest thing I could get to a gargoyle
Character generator I used
V
I finally finished a small project I've been working on during this month! I present to y'all:
The Worm. Chaos himself. Beloved Leshy!!
It was difficult to make but pretty fun and I'm soooo happy with the results!!
He's my little baby 💗
Welp, here we go again
Remember to outlive your enemies, and if you don't have any? Make some!
AS YOU MF SHOULD!!!
Cotl doll I made a year or two ago. Still very proud of him!
No !! Little german boy !!! Dont play with the evil toys!!
Ohnn mein gott!! der Unheimliche wird eaten mein parents!!!
How it started vs how it's going
Had some minor complications sewing the bottom, but all together, he's come out perfectly!
The little crown is just so cute <3
All that's left is to embroider the mouth & eyebrows, then I'll get started on the cape
Today I draw buff brothers. Tomorrow, who knows.
I'm picking stuff i see in the fandom here and there, and people drawing tail Leshy got me. Tails are dope. Drawing a tid bit more on the realistic side of furries is also fun.
I haven't seen any other fan theories like this, but if anyone else thought of this first, please let me know.
Anyways, alchemy obviously plays a big part in the magic system of the protocol universe. And I've seen several people bring up that Celia mentioned the three primes of alchemy. Based on my very non-expert google knowledge, the three primes are salt, mercury, and sulfur. Salt represents the body, mercury represents the mind, and sulfur represents the soul.
In other words, physical horror, psychological horror, and existential horror. There are three fear entities in this universe; Salt, which is fear relating to the body/physical harm, Mercury, which is mental/emotional fears, & Sulfur, which is existential fears. This lines up pretty well with what Colin said:
This time, the way to keep the entities from entering our world is to keep them balanced. And based on what we've seen, the way to keep the balance is probably by sacrificing people to them.
This next part is a bit of a stretch & I don't expect it to be right. Something interesting I noticed, all the Externals we've met so far seem to be Salt-coded. Maybe the OIAR is only in charge of the salt part of the balance? What if the Hilltop Center and the Magnus Institute were in charge of the other two elements? Colin didn't mention what happens when there's too much salt, but we might see that for ourselves soon.
