I’m thinking a kind of Ranpo-esque reader, where they know everything, but only through a niche, obscure ‘ability’.

Carmenta.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT THIS IS AWESOME

Interestingly, unlike many gods and goddesses of this period - she forbade blood sacrifices. So the traditional slaughter of a ram of a bull would not be observed. Instead offerings of food (not meat) and fruit would be made to her. Her abhorrence of death was so profound that it was forbidden to wear leather or animals skins in her temple or sacred groves. This meant that many of her worshippers did so barefooted.

“The kinds of Demons -you- don’t fuck with--”  What up y’all!? So, I really wanted to draw some Madamas, and whom’s better but @quasahi ‘s Madama Carmenta and @kelbremdusk ‘s Madama Alkonost?  This also marks the debut of Vivien’s pact: Lady Lachesis A bit about LL: Based on the Death’s Head Moth. Her over all theme is Fate and Destiny and she is commonly known as the “Death Dealer”. (More on her later when I do a stand alone piece! Anyway, I hope these lovely artists like my rendition of their kick-ass MAdamas!  (Also please forgive the messed up hands @-@)

*   Carmentalia (Ancient Rome) Day to celebrate prophecy, the chief giver of which was Carmenta, Goddess of prophecy, who also protected women during childbirth. *   Juturnalia (Ancient Rome) Time when water was taken from sacred wells to be used in state offerings. *   National Human Trafficking Awareness Day *   National Hot Toddy Day *   Secret Pal Day *   National Milk Day *   National Step in a Puddle and Splash Your Friend Day (?) Seriously, who makes these things up?
