Holiday Season Reminder!

If you or a loved one love plague doctors, I have both a NOVEL

and a PICTURE BOOK

available for your collection, from Amazon!

also, the novel will be getting a sequel next year so it's a good time to catch up-!

[fanaticartisan]

Hi I finished plague on necromancy today I really enjoyed how distractable Barty is and how other characters have to keep getting him to slow down and pay attention and I really like James he's deeply relatable as a grouchy person that still wants to help. And Fabian is very amusing obviously very fun. And I flipped through the book and landed back at the end of the perfumery scene and ow :( That's much worse with full context

Ahhh thank you so much for reading it !! Wow!!! I am so pleased that you found something to enjoy in each character - they are all so near and dear to my heart. The next book is coming out in NOVEMBER so if you want more of all of those things you enjoyed stay tuned!!! I need to go re-read the perfumery scene now...

There are no tax breaks for housing a young ward but their living allowances and imaginary wage can be counted as business expenses. This is why Boils is smart.

Follow up to this art.

i’m never getting over how shovel knight decided to make a love story about a socially anxious mad scientist plague doctor bird guy trying to impress a hot goth girl by crafting a potion of unlimited power and then it ended up being the greatest romance ever conceived.

Does anyone have ship dynamics for a Necromancer and a Crow Plague Doctor? The Necromancer seems like a serious guy but deep down (and I mean REALLY deep down) he’s a goofy idiot who loves wolves. The Crow Plague Doctor (Crow is just the type of mask she wears) is the kind of person who looks like a Mafia boss but she’s actually just a forensic scientist who is also a Mafia boss (and really likes crows)

Free child labor and intellectual ego boost.

Might as well tag this under my Plague Freaks tag cos my OCs are enjoying this universe.

|Pestilence|

If Pestilence was a man,

the Nurses would scurry

out of His Waywhen they can,

hoping He drops a folder in the hallway

as a pretext

for some conversation.

If Pestilence was a man,

He would walk the line

in front of the Friars,

drawing fire when He can;

Speaking Sign Language to the Choirs,

if they were within His Wing Span.

The Flagellants Pacing behind the Monks,

all Dogmatic Revulsion and Holy War,

the Ascetic Gazes of the Dispossessed,

Eyes Hungry for a Rapturous Score:

Unphased if Euthanized by Their Doctor;

Frozen from their Avian Behavior,

Their Heads cocked to the side at the Foe,

who must now wonder if the Doctor,

His Score,

the Friars,

the Warrior Monks,

and the Cross,

are not a Fixture

They must endure.

If Pestilence was a man,

He would Operate with a steady Hand,

Stomping Franciscan through the Blades,

the Eyes of the Beak fogged with Sand,

ere the Nuns flip their Hourglasses,

and Slain men are pulled out of their Graves;

the Plague Doctor fluttering with His Scalpel,

the Flagellants Roaring a Thousand Names,

as the Friars Cross the Valley of Death,

to fight as Angels Chanting with Staves.

If Pestilence was a man,

He would Sing the Slain to fight anew,

As wounded Muslims in Spinal Submission,

from the backs of whom

their own Skeletons Grew.

Aya Sabu

"Does man

think We will not

Assemble

his bones?"

If Pestilence was a man,

the Nurses would always find an excuse…

to save a promising specimen,

even if it meant one less share be made,

to the Sisters at the Nunnery,

as often…

in war…

mistakes can be grave.

If Pestilence was a man,

and the Undead had lost their sense of Humour,

He might fight in all directions,

as if driven Feral by a rumor…

that His Messenger had been Bewitched,

or Treachery was afoot,

till the Fleshless start Cackling

the Foe grows overproud,

the Faithful feel Betrayed,

and Richelieu glares Foul.

When from beneath the Mask comes the Howling Scream of Muhammadan Physicians slashing Dreams, Counting seconds of Candle Flames and Grains of Sand that Recite the Names, between the Parapets of Reynald’s Holdfast ere Templar mail Bled Holy Land, Bishops Chopping Candelabras of Runic Axe that could only Cut as Deep as the True Lord can when He converted by the Blade

every Viking He could stand.

If Pestilence was a man,

He would skulk away from another defeat,

His Corpse Cart laden

with His specimens,

His Company…

the Bones He Bleeds;

His Beak hanging in Despair,

on to the next Hamlet in distress,

wondering why His Halo,

is a burden He loves to regret.

Sometimes things happen in a dnd session and then you pass out from emotional exhaustion and you don't remember shit until you get up the next morning.

Anyways what's up fuckers I got my fucking bones back.

[calico-n-co]

I drew out a Character MomentTM from our most recent session!!! A little NPC interrogation never hurt anyone (he’ll be fine, or not)

Our DM is feeding right into my girl Corra’s necromancy angst and I’m living for it

Mini comic below!

[the-boring-distopia]

I love The Locked Tomb series because even if someone else was the main character the story would still be crazy weird.

If we got the narration of Gideon the Ninth for example from Judith or Palamedes, Palamedes' codependence with Camilla or what the kentucky fried fuck Judith has going on with Marta still would've made the story entertaining and confusing.

If Ianthe narrated Harrow the Ninth the clusterfuck of "wait, what?!" would be off the roof. Ianthe falling for Harrow while being a struggling girlfailure, checking under her bed for dead bodies would be a sideplot next to whatever tridentariicest plagues Ianthe's mind.

In Nona the Ninth we could see narration from Corona or Pash even and we still would've gotten a compelling story of fredoom fighters and runaway princesses on spaceships with necromancy.

What I'm trying to say is there is not one normal guy in this fantastic series and I love Muir for that. She wrote all of them in a way that makes me want to read entire books about them.

anyone with yuu who's a child of hades i beg

Sure thing

𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐈𝐅 𝐘𝐔𝐔 𝐈𝐒 𝐀 𝐃𝐄𝐌𝐈 𝐆𝐎𝐃 ( 𝐇𝐀𝐃𝐄𝐒 ) ⚰️👻

A demigod is a part-human and part-divine offspring of a deity and a human, or a human or non-human creature that is accorded divine status after death, or someone who has attained the "divine spark".

Demi-God!yuu are calm and collected would be reserved and yet sarcastic towards people, they are very blunt and straight forward person.

They would have eye bags due to their part time job as a judge for souls due to their father having other businesses in the underworld.

They rarely sleeps, plagued by vivid dreams or visions of the underworld. When they do sleep, it’s short and restless, leading to their permanent eye bags. Despite this, they always seem alert, almost as if their connection to the underworld sustains them.

Demi-God Yuu’s presence often makes people around them feel a slight chill, as if the shadows grow darker in their vicinity. Some students find it unsettling, while others are drawn to the mystery.

Also Plants around them tend to wither slightly, and candles flicker or dim when they enter a room.

loves learning about ancient myths, especially those relating to death and the afterlife. They spend hours in the library researching past civilizations, and their knowledge often surprises the professors.

They have the ability to sense spirit, summon the souls of the dead for guidance And borrow their power for a short time.

Demi-God Yuu eyes seem to reflect the vast, empty depths of the underworld, almost like looking into the abyss. Some say staring into them too long makes you feel like you're being pulled into the shadows.

While Grim loves causing chaos, Demi-God Yuu is always there to rein him in. They take on a more parental role, ensuring Grim doesn’t bite off more than he can chew. Grim, despite his bravado, is secretly afraid of Yuu’s “death glare.”

They have a dry, dark sense of humor, often making grim or morbid jokes that leave others unsure whether to laugh or be scared. Ace and Deuce are the usual targets of their deadpan quips.

Despite their grim aura, Demi-God Yuu has a gentle side that comforts lost or lonely souls, both living and dead. They seem to attract those who need guidance, offering quiet, profound words of wisdom when needed.

Demi-God!yuu is a powerful necromancer, By knowing the knowledge of the undead as well a sacrifice of blood they can create or summon them to zombies to aid them with a flick of their hand. They can use this power as servants to do their order. They also can use the powers and abilities of the undead freely as they do.

This ability can stand anything as long as they're dead, animals or people can summon as long as they know the knowledge and the soul structure of the thing they summon. Animals with more complicated structures will need more concentration as well blood.

They also can reanimate skeletons, summon Skeleton Warriors, bring back the dead, manipulate ghosts. Crowley has forbade them from using any necromancy magic due to being illegal in twisted wonderland.

They often seeks solitude in graveyard, finding comfort in the stillness and quiet. They sometimes have long conversations with the spirits buried there, enjoying the peaceful connection to the afterlife. The ignihyde dorm or dismonia dorm reminds them of the underworld so they usually tend to hang out there as well to play video games with idia, or hang out with the dismonia gang.

When faced with peril, Demi God Yuu is unfazed. Whether it’s a magical duel, a rampaging monster, or a chaotic spell gone wrong, they remain eerily calm, calculating the best way to neutralize the threat. Their classmates often wonder if they even feel fear.

They're connection to the underworld has dulled their senses. They can’t taste food as vividly as others, and colors seem muted to them. The only exception is the color of flames—they are drawn to fire, seeing it in a vibrance others can’t perceive. It’s one of the few things that remind them they’re still connected to the living world.

The ghosts of Night Raven College are particularly fond of them They feel understood and respected by someone with such strong ties to the afterlife. They frequently visits the ghost dorms, chatting with the spirits about history, the past, and lost legends.

Demi-God yuu's favorite hobby is to solve puzzles as well as literature, they are new members of the board game club, you can find them playing board games with Azul and idia.

Since them being the child of hades, since he's the god of the dead as well treasure and wealth, Demi-God Yuu grew up in a rich lifestyle, they are the richest in NRC, their wealth is infinite. By far they have turned ramshackle into a palace with the help of undead workers they summon to help them build it.

The dorm has become the most luxurious out of all the other 7 dorms as well being guarded by zombies, and yet it still carries an Erie feeling for whoever dares to enter the dorm without demigod yuu permission. Some students say the dorm Carries multiple undead and spirits servants that serve under demigod yuu and grim. It has a beautiful garden filled with multiple flowers, but by far the ones that stand out the most are black roses that Demi-God Yuu personality plants and take care of them. It's also known that dorms usually have a lot of crows or raven hanging around the castle.

Grim and first years has been spoiled by Demi-God Yuu, luxurious beds, food, etc anything he asks for demigod-Yuu will give it to them with no question asked, this creates a situation where grim would fake cry and run towards them saying that ace and Deuce is being mean leaving him to be pampered by them. Of course demigod-yuu is aware of his tricks but finds it amusing so they never bother. The first years usually receive gold of jewelry from them and when they ask what's the special occasion they just shrug and walk away.

Demi-God Yuu also believes you can solve little matters with money, during the Octavinelle arc, when Azul was about to speak, they put a large bar of gold in the coffee table.

Azul : okay now let's start negotiation-

Demi-God! yuu : put a large bar of gold on the table

Azul : I assured you prefect I'm not so easily swayed by money-

Demi god!yuu : put another large bar of gold on the table

Azul : I am not easily swayed -

Demi-God Yuu : put another large bar of gold on the table

Demi-God Yuu has a natural talent for negotiation and persuasion. They’re able to strike deals or mediate conflicts, earning respect among the students for their diplomatic skills. But they usually find bribing an easier way And only negotiate during serious moments.

Ruggie is seen trying to get close with demigod-yuu trying to be on their good side for some treasures, he once helped them get their favorite drink which is milk tea in the busy cafeteria and they paid him back using 5 solid gold coins, this left him in shock and they continued on their day without looking back. Right now he's by far more eager to help them in exchange for some gold, and this causes some tension around Leona and them.

They also bribed Crowley by making grim a student, originally he was against it but when they bring out a chest full of solid gold saying that they will pay forward grim tuition for four years in NRC and if the gold is not enough they will add more and boom grim became an official student at NRC.

Another popular rumor that pops up is who is by far more richer kalim or demigod-yuu, which became a hot debate in NRC. And of course it's Demi God Yuu is richer than kalim, what do you expect their father is the god of treasure and they will never run out of money.

Their favorite fruits are pomegranates, you can always find near their bed a bowl of pomegranates seeds in their nightstand. They also wield a bident in combat, they are very skilled with it as well.

When the great sevens introduction and they met with the statue of hades Disney version, they had the surprise Pikachu face and said "wtf that's my dad".

Likes to go out on nightly walks when they can't sleep, and that's how they come across with idia, originally he was awkward around them until both of them learned about his fascination with the underworld. He will ask for a bunch of questions about it in exchange for demi god yuu is taught by idia how to play video games. And one point idia will ask them if they could bring back his brother and Demi-God!yuu still haven't given him an answer yet.

I imagine demi god yuu aesthetic would be similar to gothic or dark academia style, when they go out, they are very stylish and very prim to the bottom, But when at home they wore a giant oversize hoody and very sloppy, they look unrecognizable to their outside version, even during the VDC when vil visits them and meet them in their home attire he's first reaction is who are you, basically it's like a light switch they found no reason to be stylish in their own home just wear an outfit your most comfortable in, This is just a personal idea you guys can add if you like. and I also imagine them not being big fans of the sun, they usually wear an umbrella and sunglasses to cover themselves from the sun.
