zandelle zatara

[fc/muse: katie douglas]

gender: afab

sexuality: straight. she’s like 3 years old bro

age: 19 [human years], 3 [in mystical conscience]

(created by: @mgannmrzz)

zan zatara was directly made from one of zatanna’s failed magic sourcings. zandelle doesn’t have a last name, so she just used zatanna’s since zatanna technically created her. magic can very easily backfire which resulted in the creation of a clone of her.

she’s a homo magus as well and also casts spells using the backwards method. her magic is a red kind of aura, like how zatanna’s is blue or indigo.

while zatanna can’t exactly care for a ‘daughter’, zan has set out on her own with some help from the former in magic knowledge. madame xanadu is her guardian and zandelle helps her around her store.

anyway her pairing is with conner kent / superboy / kon-el. she’s about 19 years old in human age, probably like 3 in her magic conscience ygwim??? similar as conner so like… #meanttobe 😜

< READ MORE UNDER THE CUT! >

i think i’ll put her in yj, but swap out zatanna for her since i’m not a big fan of zatanna having such a wide age gap when she’s about the same age as batman in the comics (i’m pretty sure). but i’ll refer to both yj and yj ‘98 when rping!

LORE RESOURCES

document

more lore will be dropped i swear. i’m fairly new to zatanna so i’m still learning a lot more about how her magic works and all that as well as madame xanadu. as for rping, sometimes i’ll speak backwards BUT in english as a little quirk of hers. it’s something she does in admiration of zatanna and how she casts her spells. translations will be written directly below in bold purple text.

thank you for reading! 💗 if you have any asks/anons PLEASEEE send them!! i’d love to interact with everyone’s ocs!

Highest praise I can muster for a superhero comic. Ok I read the first three issues of absolute martian manhunter and it has a Doug Moench Spectre kind of vibe-

[zooblesbutchpuppygirl]

Every single time I listen to Suspended In Time I start imagining a scenario where like everything is being destroyed or something and everyone is like. Dying I guess??? (< idk lol) and Zooble and Wafflez are literally Right there at the exit but neither one of them wants to leave because the thought of being separated from each other is the most painful thing ever to them so they stay behind because to them dying is better than being apart from each other

After the phantom stranger and destiny have been living with madame xanadu for a few months, destiny finally remembers something that could serve them as a good clue on the hunt for their true origins. Years ago (when stuck in his house at the edge of the known universe), destiny met three other weird cursed souls: Cain, Abel and Eve. These three could probably help destiny and the phantom stranger discover their real origins, but god has wiped any and all knowledge as to their location from destiny's mind. So they're stuck in between a rock and hard place here.

Thankfully, the team eventually runs into Blue Devil when they're on a mission in California, and he happens to know Cain pretty well. So, Blue Devil acts as their guide, trying to help them find the house of mystery and the house of secrets and however many other houses there are. It's a hard job (because the location of these houses is constantly shifting), but after a few months of searching, they finally find the places. And destiny and the phantom stranger finally get to ask cain, abel and eve all the questions they wanted to ask them.

What we then get is my heavily critical takes on the abrahamic myths of the garden of eden, adam and eve and cain and abel. To go into more specific detail, let me break this into two or three separate parts:

The Story of the Garden of Eden (and of Adam and Eve): The garden of eden was the abrahamic god's private garden, where he only allowed himself to dwell. All other gods and mortals were excluded, because he was a jerk who wanted to keep his paradise to himself. But eventually, god decided to try letting humans in his home. So he took two mortals in ancient times (a man named adam and a woman named eve) and he invited them to live in his garden with him.

He lorded himself over them, trying to make them obey his every whim. He barely fed them, he gave them no home, no clothes, he only told them to get to making children for his garden to flourish. So naturally, one of god's servants (one "angel" by the name of lucifer) saw what he was doing as inhumane, and he tried to help Adam and Eve. He appeared to then as a snake, and he led them to partake of the apples of knowledge, which gave Adam and Eve perfect knowledge of the cosmos. Using this knowledge, they realized how stupid they were to come to this garden, and they tried to flee with lucifer.

But God caught them, and he was most displeased. Paranoid that they would try to coup him and steal his garden with their new knowledge, this power mad lunatic cursed the three of them to suffer for all eternity. His punishments were all way too cruel and unusual for the crime: He killed Adam and trapped his spirit in the form of a raven; he cursed Eve with immortality and trapped her in the frail body of an old crone, and he trapped Lucifer in a coffin buried deep underneath his garden. Lucifer is still stuck there, and he will be until someone finally frees him from his centuries of torment.

But if you didn't figure it out yet, Eve and her pet raven are actually the Adam and Eve from the Bible. Eve was cursed and became the old witch of the DC mystery comics, and Adam was killed (and what little remained of his soul reincarnated as Eve's pet raven). As mentioned, Lucifer is still suffering. So perhaps we'll revisit that in a later story with the justice league dark or something. But that's the story behind Eve's curse.

The Story of Cain and Abel: Cain and Abel were humble farmers in ancient times, two brothers with happy lives and families. But naturally, the abrahamic god entered the picture and messed everything up for both of them. Because he stumbled upon them one day, and he played favourites deviously.

He lavished riches and prosperity onto Abel and his family, and then he cursed Cain's family with constant misfortune. Cain's crops died, his infant son died in a flood, his wife died of the plague, etc. So while Abel and his wife lived the high life, Cain was being driven to madness by a cruel and callous god. Indeed, Insanity is where Cain eventually lands. After Cain's second child dies of starvation, he finally snaps.

Bitter that Abel lived a life of luxury while he got nothing, Cain sneaks into Abel's home and kills him in cold blood. In his eyes, he's righting the scales. Of course, Cain feels horrible after killing his brother. When his sanity finally returns to him, Cain uses the last of his energy to kill himself too. Two brothers lay in a pool of blood, dying because of an evil god's machinations.

But god wasn't done with them. He cursed Cain and Abel to guard the House of Mystery and House of Secrets for eternity. They would be forever distant from the world of man, as punishment for "their cruel acts of violence and egotism". Nevermind the fact that the same god punishing them is the one who made them kill each other. But that's the story of why Cain and Abel are cursed.

So Cain, Abel and Eve share their stories with Destiny and The Phantom Stranger. From here, the stranger and destiny realize the easiest way to get vengeance on god might be to break into his garden and free lucifer. But to do that, they're going to need the aid of the entire justice league dark (if not most of dc's supernatural community).

asjushusasadhshj we get to start rehearsing on the big stage on monday im so excited!!!!!!!!!

DC's Demon Knights as Magic: the Gathering cards.

Sometimes I express my love for character by writing fanfic, other times by writing essays. Occasionally however, I make Magic cards.

(Yes I'm aware D&D character sheets (and a monster stat block for the Queen) would be more fitting, but picking out that many spells was just too much for me. Plus D&D sheets are just less pretty than magic cards.)

Honestly it was really fun to do, trying to capture the core of each character in a colour identity three lines of rules text, and I put way more work into then i probably should have. Enough work that I have detailed design thoughts on all of these cards that I might include in a reblog later if anyone's interested.

Also might do a set but for Catwoman and her supporting cast later.

the Scum has got me so bad that I almost want to teach myself how to draw people just so I can draw how I picture the characters

For the music asks: 2, 5, and 13!

#2: Who got you into the band you adore now?

Recently, I decided to do a deep dive into the discography of Blue Öyster Cult where I listened to everything they made from beginning to end (1972-1982 is great, the rest isn't worth much). Truthfully, I don't know who it was exactly that got me into them, but the safest answer would probably be my father (he was a big seventies classic rock guy).

#5: If you could jam with any band member ever, living or dead, who would it be?

I'm not much of a musician, so if I could change the question (is that cheating??) to who I'd want a lesson from, I'd say that I'd love a lesson from Phil Collins. He was mine and my dad's favorite drummer. He made drumming look fun and I've always wanted to be able to do even a fraction of what he could.

#13: Favourite lyric?

That's a really tough one. I can give you two favorites at the moment, if that's satisfying enough(?)

"Let your tears flow, let your past go" - "Cry If You Want" by The Who

"I am made from the dust of the stars / And the oceans flow in my veins" - "Presto" by Rush (Nobody did it better than Neil did and nobody delivered it better than Geddy did).

Thanks for submitting! :)

From this post. Feel free to submit a number if you so choose!
