Dwellers of the Dream in a Subway

[critterishere]

Thinking about the design that I use for anons,,,, and I wanted to create new lore since the old one (where these beings were originally robots) is now outdated. Woooo big lore dump thing wooooo!

(Note: This will not affect asks at all, I literally just wanted to write how these things were created for fun. Playing touys)

I imagine my little sona (the critter😼) to live in this place called Craters. This place is based off of an inside joke,,, it’s basically a weird whimsical little land/maybe country that is home to all sorts of cryptids, spirits, and odd occurrences. A lot of the actual Craters’ lore hasn’t been fully thought out yet, but one place that exists in this world is the Messenger Junkyard!

The Messenger Junkyard (sometimes referred to as a graveyard) is an area in one of Craters’ forests where thousands of abandoned statues now rest. These statues used to hold religious significance and were used to get in contact with higher beings. The statues are tall, vaguely humanoid figures with long faces, commonly draped in a cloth with intricate patterns. (Ignore the fact that none of my drawings have the patterns I was lazy😭)

Various gods (or their workers) would send out messages to the people working in the church/shrine/temple. These messages were either warnings, prophecies, requests, or to tell someone off for not doing their job correctly. (😭 depends on the being in the vessel)

Random note! I like to think that whenever these vessels get possessed, the clay will fall apart, revealing a body of flesh underneath. 🐣 Why is there flesh inside of the statue entirely made of clay or stone? No clue! 😭 sometimes I write things because it sounds cool. Let’s just say it’s weird magic stuff. Fun yay yay❤️

These statues would usually have a seal or symbol placed on it to prevent any unwanted visitors from using them. After the mass discarding of these statues, these symbols were lost or got torn off (or chipped off, some had the seals carved into them), making it accessible for lesser beings without physical form to control them.

So, there is a forest filled with statues that may or may not be possessed by ghosts, demons, or other trickster spirits. Who will make sure that nothing bad happens?

This… This thing watches over the Messenger Junkyard…

The critter lives near the forest, and goes out to check on the statues every now and then. It cleans the statues, tries to reassemble ones that have fallen apart, and looks out for any movement.

It generally doesn’t run into too much trouble with the statues. A lot of the ones that get possessed are usually controlled by ghosts of humans that have died in Craters (sometimes the ghosts of animals possess the vessels. It’s rare, but it’s an entertaining to see what was once a symbol of the divine scratching its ear, then clumsily trying to climb a tree).

anywayss misc doodles over heeeeere!!!

In the left image, I was thinking about what a messenger vessel would look like if it were to present more human. I’m not quite sure if vessels can change color.. I do sometimes put fur on them and make them change into a multitude of different shapes, so maybe they can do some chameleon stuff as well! Speaking of fur stuff,, second image is me having fun with hair texture for a bit, as well as a drawing of some weird lizard spine ridge type thing going on at the top doodle. Fun shapes for fun creatures!

This was an old mini comic I never got around to finishing. It was made before the messengers were officially changed to be more organic. I think it’s still silly so here you go!👍📨

anywayyyys bye gang (explodes) I love playing toy and making stories up for my monster designs🌺

Proverbs 25:13 (NLT) - Trustworthy messengers refresh like snow in summer. They revive the spirit of their employer.

[mister-a-z-fell]

Mr. Fell - I’d like to ask you a question, sir, but as I am a bit chagrined to be asking it, I must do so anonymously. Sir, is it improper to pray to angels?

I was raised in a religious tradition that encourages praying to saints and other “intercessors”, as that’s considered a way to get additional weight added to one’s prayers on their way to the Almighty. And I notice that the Archangel Michael is often revered as a saint, and so must also be the recipient of prayers.

Additionally, we were taught that the Almighty is busy, very busy, with far loftier things than we can comprehend. We were discouraged from thinking that we should interrupt.

As a result of these two factors, I often find myself hesitant to pray to the Highest power. I feel the need to have a…a middle-man, as it were. Someone who might not be irritated at my small, mortal concerns.

I’m sure you can read between the lines, sir, and know that I am asking if it is alright to pray to you, or to any angel.

Thank you for reading this.

I had to think about this before replying. The world is full of different beliefs and different ways of connecting with the Higher Power, as it were. And I am just one angel. Lowly of rank and — for most people — a fiction. To give you an answer that has meaning but that doesn't presume an authority that isn't mine is a fine line to walk.

But I'll try.

The God of your understanding is big. Vast in a way that is beyond even the most inspired physicist's comprehension.

There is room in that vastness for all the business of the universe, from the crash of galactic tides to the drift of a single protozoon. Your prayers and concerns are neither small nor inconvenient. You are the Almighty's treasured Creation, and you are heard, whether you shout your prayer from a mountain top or whisper it in your innermost heart.

That being said, if you find you're more comfortable asking for angels to intercede on your behalf, there's nothing wrong with that, so long as you pray through us, but not to us. We love you and we'll add our voices to yours. But it’s important that you know that we exert no influence and the answers you receive are not ours.

And sometimes the answer is 'no’.

Keep a hopeful heart and ask for whatever sustains and comforts you.

I hope you hear ‘yes’ more often than ‘no’.

Bloodborne beach episode!.... the NORMAL beach episode, and not how it went... the last time -_- *glares at monster hunters from Byrgenwerth*

In case if Tumblr ruins the quality, I shared full res on Devi: ( x ).

I've started this WIP back in summer 2021, but I've abandoned it since then, and only this summer decided to actually finish it.. Some errors since that time carried on as a result, and arguably I draw a bit better humans now... But the only true way to learn to draw large 'crowd' pieces like this is to simply draw more of them, hahah; Sizing of characters within perspective is yet to be improved, of course, not to mention that some characters are not drawn quite accurately to my heights headcanons for them but I will be real, it was fun to draw! And I just... really wanted to draw something happy and colorful for a long while, since BB's grim atmosphere striped me out of this fix. At least now there is ER for my bright colors needs lol

(Important: there are no OCs on this piece! The girl under Willem's chair is Rom, guy chased by the seaqulls is Bloody Crow, there is Byrgenwerth gatekeeper being buried in sand by Dores the Byrgenwerth graveguard (canon characters only mentiond in the item most of the players never found), Choirling is Yurie, girl next to Maria is of course Adeline, and the guy with the kite is Caryll!)
