Ghoul HCs: Summoning

A successful ghoul summoning must be conducted at night, with a proper set up and protections

For a proper summoning, one must have six black candles, an item representing each element, a sigil personalized to the summoner, a drop of one’s own blood, and Latin incantations. Small offerings are also recommended to appease the new summons. While ghouls can be summoned with just the sigil and blood, those summonings tend to go very wrong…

Normally, only one ghoul can be summoned at a time. However, there are exceptions (Omega and Alpha, Phantom and Aurora)

One’s mode and intentions can be reflected off of the ghoul that comes through. If a ghoul is summoned with negative intent, they may be difficult to handle upon becoming topside.

Ghouls must be “tamed” upon being summoned. To do this, the summoner shares their name, is left alone with the ghoul(s) once stabilized, and wait for the ghoul to approach them. This is also why small offerings are suggested, as they can help with the process of gaining trust.

New summons will tend to follow their summoner around for a bit, preferring their company as they adjust to their new environment

A ghouls element can be recognized immediately upon summoning. The days following will reveal their powers, dietary habits (omnivore, carnivore, herbivore), soft skills, and personality.

In the ministry, ghouls are only to be summoned those of higher clerical status (head siblings of sin, bishops, administrators, and those in line to be Papa/Mama). The number of which they are allowed to summon varies with intent.

Those in line to become the next antipope must summon a ghoul from each element. Additionally, summoning a special or multi ghoul is expected at some point.

An individual and their first summon tend to have a deep bond

Primo’s first summon was Chain. He served as his closest infernal advisor.

Secondo’s first summon was River. While Secondo doesn’t care much for the ghouls, River seems to have some level of respect.

Terzo’s first summon was Mist, who was summoned when he was 15 out of pure curiosity. They’ve been joined at the hip ever since.

Copia’s first summon was Cumulus. She’s his special girl and she’ll kill anyone who looks at him for too long.

Perpetua’s first (and only at the moment) summon was, of course, Haze. Two new, nervous creatures who find solace in each other.

Favorite headcanon for every ghoul! Go!

Every ghoul??? Oh god uhhhh

Ok its not every ghoul but the ones i think about the most ig, and i shouldnt say these are my favorite hcs but they are a few random ones that i decided were fun lol

Check em out below the cut

Sodo: That little mf loves to be weird and ominous and just stand all stoic like in dark hallways sometimes, staring with glowing eyes at whatever poor ghoul happens to be at the other end of the hall. It’s not actually all that scary and most ghouls just wave to him and move along with a chuckle but Aether often gets stopped in his tracks or tries to stare ominously back at him, only for Sodo to flinch towards him like he’s gonna run at him and for Aether to book it outa there holding his hands up.

Bonus: He steams when his emotions are high, literally steams. Steam flows out from his mouth, nose, ears, etc. Its kind of annoying sometimes, but at least it looks cool.

Aether: Big guy gives the best hugs in the entire ministry, some might say that they can even cure you of minor injuries or ailments. He is almost always met with eager open arms, and when he’s not (looking at you sodo) he will wrap them up tight and hold them close with a big ol smile anyway no matter how much they grumble and kick. Even sodo cant hide how great he feels when Aether finally lets him go and sends him on his way.

Bonus: Also killer at massages

Mountain: If he wasn’t constantly tapping out rhythms on any available surface wherever he went, he is very quiet. So quiet that sometimes its a jumpscare when all the sudden you hear a beat begin to be tapped out behind you. It’s honestly impressive how well he can pass unnoticed considering how tall he is but he likes to just listen in. Coincidentally, he knows all the gossip you could ever desire. If you have a secret, its best to bribe him now to never share it because its a good chance he already knows it.

Swiss: He and sodo vape together and set up a lil cozy spot to chill in while they do. Basically a blanket fort that they can hotbox on occasion. They think they are soooo cool lmao. Sodo has given him a few burns because of how much Swiss pokes fun at him, but playful bullying is swiss’ love language so its all in good fun. Also this mf is the biggest flirt ever, he has flirted with every ghoul, every sibling, and honestly every object that humors him. He thinks its fun. Generally just a great ghoul to hang around.

The ghoulettes: i honestly dont know much about them to my great dismay but i think they should all cuddle in a giant fluffy pile. Their cuddle piles are probably the best place to sleep in the ministry. Maybe too good actually, any ghoul who joins them has a very high chance of sleeping for much much longer than they had originally intended to. Often finding themselves overslept for some important task, but nothing beats how you feel when you finally wake up. Not tired like you sometimes do after a long sleep, but entirely refreshed.

Bonus Omega: Dude is a poetry nut but he’s embarrassed about most of the time

Bonus Alpha: Omega3’s biggest hater ( “I mean good for you guys but really? Right in front of my salad?” )

I also did just wanna post this lovely comment :) separately bc I remember one time I got an anon telling me to stop making ghouls trans and it's only made me make MORE ghouls trans presenting lol

Trans ghoul headcanon lore >:3

My ghoul designs tend to have a lot of inconsistencies because sometimes I just don't feel like it, sometimes they're bored and wanna put 17 piercings in just their ears and wear boobs, sometimes they only want two small hoops and a flat chest!

In the end it's me drawing my characters however I feel like they want to present that day, according to the lore ghouls were/are nameless and genderless until the "ghoulette" masks were introduced. The concept that they were just faceless servants of papa no matter what they are but as time goes on, they're sort of allowed to present themselves however they like instead, which i think is what leads to a lot of my ghouls to identify with different genders and physical presentations like how rain and dew tend to present really feminine, mist is a bit more butch in her behavior while still looking feminine in her appearance, ghouls like zephyr and Ifrit struggled with presenting themselves as the perfect ghouls that they had to be, and so finding themselves after retiring from touring, exploring both their own genders and identities, and then choosing to display top surgery scars as more of a sign of that struggle? Since they technically don't need actual surgery bc they can just glamour scars away- but in the same way that Ifrit displays his other scars and zephyr allows his vitiligo and gray hair to just exist instead of glamouring himself to look different (except for when he's in disguise, he does glamour his gray hair as a human) it's more so just about them displaying the fact that they are free to present themselves however they want...

Anyway you can find a lot of those in my art tag!!

Phantom, pointing on a red jellyfish: strawberry jello!

Rain: it's a periphylla periphylla

Phantom, ignoring him and pointing on a blue jellyfish: look, blueberry jello!

☀️ Get ready for some Cowbell thoughts this morning ☀️

He is completely blind. 0% vision.

His other senses are heightened so that’s how he gets around and recognizes people.

He can hear heartbeats, it’s like a fingerprint to him. Everyone’s is slightly different.

He has a self-taught form of echolocation.

He is Mountains cousin, therefore is also lanky and freakishly tall. Bell is a lot more extroverted though.

Has a SHIT ton of piercings, loves the way it feels on his skin and body. He will gladly let you find them all.

I picture him as an Air/Earth multi?

Forked tongue king 👑 (yes that way too)

Is kind of a brat? “A cocky little shit” - Terzo

Fangs for dayyyysssss and knows how to use them…

Suns away? The demon plays~

I have this idea that his veins glow green in the dark? He can absolutely control this for easier hunting, using the light (or absence of it) to lure in prey so he doesn’t have to chase.

He can also camouflage really well?

He used that skill as a kit to survive cause he couldn’t see, but now he uses it to creep around the Abbey and watch.

Something is definitely not right with this one.

[NSFW thoughts under the cut!!! MINORS DO NOT READ FURTHER!!]

The new more naive summons are almost always drawn to his unsettling aura. He’s like a siren.

It’s like they can’t resist his entrancing charm and he looooves to have his way with them…

He won’t admit it, but his favourite part is when they keep coming back begging for more

And he’s nothing but eager to help.

Alpha and Omega have told him off many times, but what can he do when they look so lost and helpless??

He's got a venom that acts as an aphrodisiac. It's supposed to help him hunt so his prey doesn't run away, but he uses it for other purposes now...

Because of complications with his birth, he’s completely sterile (much to the relief of the Clergy) which makes him perfect for helping with Ghoulette’s heat cycles.

Happily providing the relief they need without the fear of getting them pregnant.

Loves to pretend he can though~ ‘You look so pretty carrying my kits.’ ‘Shall we see if this one will take?’

(If they do want kits, Aether is more than willing to give them a whole litter (breeding bull aether hc? just yes 😍) )

Knows Aether would be a better father anyway…

These were just some of my thoughts, no need to agree with me I just had a lot of Bell on the brain today 🖤

Ghoul Kit hcs cause they make me feel maternal

Ghoul kits are smaller than human babies, since they usual come in pairs/litters. They’re about the size of newborn puppies, but look more like kittens. They begin to take in a more humanoid look around three months.

All kits regardless of their element are born with fur. Some will lose their fur as the age, others will get new coats. Water ghoul kits have back fins, which will eventually split into legs.

Horns/antlers aren’t usually present at birth, though it has happened. This can cause complications during natural labors.

They’re born with their ears and eyes closed, both of which tend to open around 2-3 weeks.

Teeth and claws start growing around 6 months.

Fire and air kits are the noisiest. Kits communicate throw howls, purrs, squeaks, and chirps.

Earth kits are usually the tamest/“easiest” to handle, with fire kits being the opposite.

Quint litters tend to carry 2-3 kits. For earth ghouls, it’s almost always 3. Fire ghouls and air ghouls, 3-5. Water ghouls have the largest litters, usually between 4-6. Multis vary. While rare, it is possible for only a single kit to be born at a time.

Kits are almost always raised communally, with pack members stepping in to help out new parents. In The Pit, kits are easy prey; the more protection, the better.

Ghouls may become defensive if non-members of their pack attempt to interact with a young kit.

They love cuddles! They can often be found in a cuddle pile with their siblings/other pack kits, or in someone’s arms.

Older kits are very curious, and tend to wander about. As a result, their parents will heavily scent them so they can track them down if they get lost.

Ok byeeeeee :3

[facakya]

I forgot to share these here!! But here are my hc for my ghoul designs! ^-^

[spoiledleaff]

...god complex zephyr because they're a fallen angel send post.

[dewinabsentia]

whenever the ghouls sneeze, their element pops off ever so slightly. rain sneezes, the faucet trickles. cumulus sniffles, some papers slide off the table. it’s not very troublesome, even with dew, the most he ever does is light a candle or singe a leaf on one of mountain’s plants. but swiss. swiss, much like his multi elemental ability, is a wildcard. he’s popped lightbulbs, thrown open locked doors, froze an entire pot of freshly brewed coffee completely solid. some caffeine loving ghouls are still holding a grudge over that one. and phantom, ever the instigator, finds this endlessly entertaining. if he’s bored, he’ll light a candle that he knows will get swiss sneezing. the rest of the ghouls have taken to banning anything labeled “rose scented” from the den.
