CR 12 Undead

A towering mass of fused flesh lurches forward, its body riddled with gnashing maws that never stop feeding. Barbed tongues lash out to drag prey closer - where the hunger of the dead is finally satisfied.

King Baal: In the tradition of the Ars Goetia, the first section of the 17th-century grimoire known as The Lesser Key of Solomon, King Baal (also spelled Bael) is the first spirit listed among the 72 demons and is no accidental. He's the King, who command 66 Legions, and the first spirit of the Goetia. In ceremonial magic texts, Baal is described as ruling over a vast number of infernal legions. In occult symbolism, “legions” don’t necessarily mean literal armies, they often represent domains of influence or spiritual forces. Being listed first suggests primacy, seniority, or foundational status within the hierarchy. Baal appears with three heads: A toad, a man, and a cat. Three heads in occult symbolism often imply layered perception, divided domains, or composite power. Medieval demonology loved hybrid forms, they represent fractured order or inverted creation. The grimoire claims that Baal grants invisibility, gives wisdom or cunning, and provides knowledge to the summoner. “Invisibility” in occult language symbolize literal concealment, influence without detection, acting unseen and operating beneath perception. The name Baal comes from ancient Semitic religion, especially Canaanite traditions, where “Baal” simply meant “Lord” or “Master.” It was a title used for various deities, particularly storm and fertility gods. Over centuries, as monotheistic traditions developed, rival gods were reinterpreted as demons. Baal transitioned from regional deity to infernal king in later christian demonology. Baal becomes a symbol of hidden authority, fragmented identity, the power to move unseen and the transformation of former gods into demons. Many “demons” in grimoires are echoes of older gods reframed by new theological systems. Mythology is political memory wearing horns.

Special little thing in between. So I'm currently neckdeep in my current hyperfocus - Nordic Mythology, don't ask me how the shit I ended up here but it's quite nice and comfy °w° - and I guess it was just a matter of time till that manifests even more in my art then just by a God of War acrylic painting. So I just uhm….kinda stomped a new Undertale AU out of my brain and 'm calling it Eddatale. To name the obvious it kinda goes the same direction Reapertale did - just that I'm playing around with 'em nordic gods and mythology.

While I already did a first few catious sketches for this new AU, this one is the first proper artwork I have done here so far and I thought I stop pondering how the fuck I can introduce this properly and just post the first bit. :P For once not starting it with Sans and Papyrus, but with Asgore - welp okay, in this case more precisely with Odin :P

….even more precisely Odin, Munin and Hugin :3
