new boot goofin'

Rome, goddess of death, rules the Underworld with an iron fist, softened only by the counsel of her wife. Second to her are her henchmen: Shrike and Jackal. Jackal, ever a friend to mortals, ferries their souls to the riverbanks. Pray you never meet Shrike, as she is responsible for the guilty wails that echo through those dark halls...

My Sims obsession continues, featuring the Chthonic deities from my Deity AU, a Greco-Roman pantheon-esque setting for my Fallout OCs.

Charon on the other hand. Bethesda really just dropped that guy and didn't elaborate at all. They said here, have a ghoul who's tall as fuck and is forced to obey the orders of whoever owns him. No, we will not explain how he got this way. No, you cannot help him. Enjoy!

oo this one is hard bc i feel like so many can fit. here's two for ya

4. a song lyric to describe their personality

Apologize - grandson

And I don't know where I'm gonna go But I don't care, I’m on the road Never been a perfect soul But I will not apologize

Jackal lives to travel above all else. It's their purpose in life and it's what makes them happy. Even better if they've got good company on the road. And as for not apologizing, well... even with all their flaws, they're rarely one to apologize, due to their pride.

I'm Not Okay - Weathers

I can be a handful But that's why you have two hands

This is just a small one, but I love it for Jackal. They are indeed a handful. Luckily, those close to them are willing to use both hands.

let's comfort the children and then make them CRY. i tried to pick songs that i could see being in the fallout setting + characters listening to (the imagine dragons song passes bc its acoustic...)

7. a song lyric that would comfort them when they’re sad

Jace: The Little Green Valley - Marty Robbins

I hear a mockingbird down in the little green valley He's singing out a song of welcome just for me And someone waits by the garden gate Down in the little green valley When I get back again, how happy she will be

This song always makes Jace think of his home, where his mamá is waiting for his next visit with hot food and a warm hug.

Jackal: My Rifle, My Pony, and Me - Dean Martin

Purple light in the canyon That is where I long to be With my three good companions Just my rifle, pony, and me

Jackal is always happiest when they're hitting their road by saddle, whistling a tune with their rifle on their back.

Athena: Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall - The Ink Spots

Into each life, some rain must fall Too much is falling in mine Into each heart, some tears must fall Someday the sun will shine

Athena has a lot of grief in her life, but this song reminds her that everything passes, and she should be grateful for the good parts. Rain is, quite literally, her favorite thing about coming out of the vault. (You mean it just comes from the sky...?!)

more under the cut :)
