When life gives you lemons, make an AU with your childhood crackship and their fanchild!
Got this AU design from a friend on Toyhouse, and so I now present: The Cult of Ciphertology AU! Takes place in the Cult of the Lamb world! Now as for the lore so far...
The Beast With Just One Eye: A Bishop that played by his own rules, and had his heyday back when The One Who Waits was still part of The Old Faith. In fact, he was an enemy to the Old Faith, as he wanted to upheave order as a whole. But he had seemingly been defeated by the (at the time) four bishops of the Old Faith, and his imprisonment was left in the hands of an unrelated, but trustworthy god. While he might appear in the physical realm to some extent, that's only due to the assistance of his previous cult leader, and his current one as well-he is NOT fully physical yet, he's still trapped in this other realm. What you see is a sort of ghost that can occasionally affect the world.
Shifty: He and Lifty had once been simple raccoons looking to scam any religious zealots into letting them live to see the next morning. Homeless thieves with nothing to their name, nothing to lose, and everything to gain. Perhaps that's why Bill took interest in them. It's with his help that the twins were actually able to have a place to call home, and it's with their help that he's slowly begun to slip out of his containment. And somewhere along the line, the two grew closer, fell in love, and even had a child. Which brings us to...
Amy: The daughter born from the sinful love between god and mortal. The moment she hatched from her egg is the moment they knew the true meaning of joy. As she grew up, she saw her mortal father preach to their cult, and came to the conclusion she wanted to follow in his footsteps. With much begging and pleading, she managed to convince both of her fathers that she could be a 'grown up' like them, and to let her run the cult of Ciphertology. And though she seems to control most of the cult... she doesn't QUITE do it alone. They'd be awful parents if they just tossed her to the wolves and risked her death after all. Within the cult, Shifty handles the more violent dissenters, so they don't potentially hurt her. And on crusades, Bill managed to convince her to 'take some of his power' to help her. Protecting her in the form of her new crown, while she believes she's doing it all on her own.
More will probably be written later, but for now, here's where we're at! :D

I keep forgetting they're in a temple and I don't know how to feel about it
Marisha having not been present for the Planning because of makeup and then being first while Orym is last in initiative is kind of funny kind of terrifying
Laudna, Chet, Braius, Snowdinus, Ashton, Fearne, Dorian, Gloamglut, Unseelie Emissary, Imogen, Orym
Oo new form of dread hell yes
Ooh yes I do remember the Spooktacular nice nice
Ludinus's notes???
Fucking Travis with the cpop brand. The rocking horse is good too though
Samuel holy shit with the art
Oh shit Laudy get this fucken counterspell please
Power Word spells are fucken nasty man
Travis said if Fearne is stunned their plan is fucked and I'm so curious about what they're trying to do
🤞🤞🤞🤞
YAAASSS
Okay okay okay Ash going for seige damage hell yes
"I can swing my hammer underground, right?" I love him
LET'S FUCKING GOOOO FEARNE
Yet another accidental phrase Matt will never live down. Spreading her legs
Uppies!! 🤣
Whatcha got Dorian
Ooooo force cage okay okay okay
Two witches in a hole and one in a box - Liam 🤣
This dragon mini is too big one wing fucken blocks Marisha's whole face holy fuck
"He doesn't care."
DUSK HUNGER? Did I hear that right? That's a badass name
I'm so curious about Zathuda but also want him far away from the party (or like dead but I'm not sure they can take him rn)
I forgot this fucker has legendaries ugh
Laudna, Chet, Braius, Snowdinus, Ashton, Fearne, Dorian, Gloamglut, Unseelie Emissary, Unseelie Gaurdians, Imogen, Orym, Ira
Hell I forgot to add Zathuda now I'm not sure where he's supposed to be (I never remembered to pay attention enough to when his turn was whoops)
Ooo Imogen on Gloamgut interesting. The vibes.
Combat with this many people is such a pain sometimes and takes so long.. Orym's turn is the end of the first round man. Fuck. Well. Ira actually maybe
I FORGOT THEY BROUGHT IRA FUCK YEAH
Oh shiiitt Zathuda being like "Fuck!" at Ira showing up oooohhhh
"He has advantage against magic because fey."
"Annoying, okay." Mood Marisha.
The forcecage 'if yo know, you know' is one of the few references they make that I don't know and it makes me a lil sad
(about Snowdinus) "He's not even a real wizard." TALIESIN I mean it's true but like damn
(Bonus for Matt's "That's not nice.")
Weird name for a flail, Sam.
Oh shit also totally forgot Ira gets legendaries, fuck yeah
Love a good counterspell train
I love when Tal gets excited about rage effects
"Bold of you to assume you have advantage. Nah you totally can." Maaaatt
Get it Ash fuck yes natty 20
I both love and hate the vague DM comments that has the whole party like wait what what do you mean. "yeah use all your stuff." *panic around the table*
Get fucked Snowdinus, fuck your Dimension Door
This motherfucker 'sploded
The 20s tonight
After this, Braius being like, 'welp my mission is done, Ludinus got exploded. Bye guys good luck' would be hilarious to me
"oops, a murder"
Laudna, Chet, Braius, Snowdinus, Ashton, Fearne, Dorian, Gloamglut, Unseelie Emissary, Unseelie Gaurdians, Imogen, Orym, Ira
YES FEARNE GET IT GIRRRRL Nat 20 for a fucken 33 yessss girrrl
I love Ashley so much "I have a defenses box?"
I would love to see how Zathuda v. Ira showdown would turn out honestly
Okay okay okay Sorrowlord wants to chat
Nat 1 with a -3 goddamn. The latest reaction time
Is this actually gonna fucken work? What's about it happen akdbfjchf
The whole building is about to come down too
Yes talk to the dragon Imogen
Okay but knowing the Fey dragon has a negative wisdom mod could come in handy
Okay baby boy defending the Emissary makes sense I think
Ira no we don't trust you either my guy
Aah his journal and the stuff about the funnel okay okay
Well I don't like the sound of that. Except the uh taking out Ludinus part but um yeah no
WHISPERS!
Yep okay he wants Fearnie to become the vessel for Predathos no thank you
Okay look I'm not saying this is the right line of thinking but I love this whole exchange
"It's a tomorrow problem."
"What if there is no tomorrow?"
"Well then it's not a problem, is it?"
So the Unseelie want to be free of the gods? Am I understanding this right
Seems the Emissary is also disappointed in the Zathuda heir
I do not like the way Zathuda talks about Fearne
I'm not against fighting them right now but Gloamglut at the very least would fuck them up and I don't think we know too much about what Zathuda is capable of and literally nothing about the Emissary or guards.
Yeah I guess the better shot is to let them go I don't know man ugh
Oh shit okay Imogen
Shadow daddy 🤣
New initiative okay
Orym, Zathuda, Emissary, Imogen, Gloamglut, Fearne, Braius, Chet, Ash, Dorian, Ira, Laudna
Okay Emissary out immediately
Aaand the pillar okay well that gives us a bit of a time table eh
The guards are like aw hell no
FEARNE. ASHLEY. AAAAAAAA
Fuck me man. Get out guys.
He really just Fastball Special'd Fearne with thunder wave didn't he
It's bad we're running guys
Motherfucken Nightmare King got spookier damn
Breaking out the big guns okay damn Laudy. Fucking Disintegrate
And empowering it fuuuuccckk
Stress math. It was almost enough
You know. I'm not sure I would have reminded Matt about the wing attack. (I probably would have but like. Sjxbhch)
This damn dragon man.
Love Imogen for throwing the Shadowlord to Braius
The whole thing is coming down
So Gloamglut being the only one to make it away from this (assuming BH kills the Emissary and Zathuda) isn't terrible, I think. But I suppose that depends on how intelligent it is and maybe on the abilities of whoever it goes to.
SAMUEL stop trying to piss off literally all of the gods
I'm here for this but what the hell are you doing Ash. Aaaaah forced movement coolcoolcool
Holy fucking shit
This is what the Tweet was about isn't it
I knew someone would get caught inside fuuuccck
Break time..
WolfChet being a garbage disposal
Whaaaaat the fuuuuccckkk
Let the dice decide, that *always* goes well. Sure.
TRAVIS. You gotta stop with the fake outs man
Though I would be very curious to see what abilities they got from either of these two high ranking Fey
Oooo shit MATT WHAT
ABU?? What the fuck
That fucking smile though holy shit
"We're gonna have words" -Travis
Ashley with the Mister plush in her head is absolutely a mood
What is even happening right now
I'm loving Braius / Sam being singled out so far
Did they just get yoinked by the Arch Heart? And now he's pulling the join me or die, fun stuff
Ooooo heartbeat in the audio nice
I absolutely adore Abu's portrayal of the Arch Heart, gods
Did he yoink them through the Gate????
Yes flatter the god of art, I'm sure that'll go well (this is only sort of sarcastic)
THE TITAN FIRE oh shit
Heeee does not seem happy about the presence of titan powers which uh tracks though
Oh no Ashton baby uhoh
"I feel like I've met you before" UH WELL YOU SEE
This could be such a big info gain opportunity
I really want to know who the other god is who wants to leave exandria
I'm having so much trouble processing all of this right now shit man
UM hi Asmodeus???? Fuuuuck
Okay okay okay wild
So many big high stakes decisions that need to be decided oooooff
✨Flattery✨ 🤣
The star is the woman who made the wish to spread the knowledge of how to build the weapon in Aeor holy shit
Robbie's grabby hands as Abu left though man
"Braius doesn't wake up." this is why you don't fuck with the dm yall, one day it won't be a joke 🤣
Holy fucking shit man.
That ring! Damn.
Since I'm just watching 107, I'll obviously not be watching 108 live tonight which means another weekend of no tumblr until Monday afternoon at least.
See yall again then ♥️
Remember to be kind to one another
