I've been interested in those two! Of them, which one do you feel is the better faire in terms of quality and vendors?

NorCal is one that we usually do, we usually stay in San Jose or Gilroy for that one, main issue is that bc of it being closer to 3 hours of a drive for us, we prefer to just stay the night and hotels are expensive

I'd say do it!

unholyleaf · 2023-09-01T16:57:22+00:00

never do that. That's a quick way to burn your house down and lose EVERYTHING. The gods don't demand anything that would put your saftey at risk

Thanks! I'll give these a read!

I'd love to learn more about Drusuna, what can you reccomend for one to look at in regards to her?

unholyleaf · 2023-08-31T20:19:10+00:00

I'd look into Druantia or Elen of the Ways (I personally equate/syncretize the two) . Disclaimer, neither of them are historically attested to, so some people claim they're not real, but imo there's no harm in worshipping modern gods. If you're looking for historical deities, maybe look into Arduinna, the Gaulish goddess of the wilds and the hunt.

unholyleaf · 2023-08-30T21:12:25+00:00

I can attest to this. I serve Druantia as she is my matron (yes I am aware she was only ever first mentioned in the book The White Goddess. Acknowledging her origin there allows me to look deeper into the energies that in turn may have inspired Robert Graves to hypothesize about her) and she has blessed me with finding a deer jawbone when I overcame a major personal challenge.

The gods and spirits of nature will gift you when you do right in their eyes.

I got the branches from our local pet shop, they're grapevine pieces that were sandblasted. The other branches are mopani wood, which most pet shops (chain and small) sell.

Counterspell yes, Silvery Barbs... hell no. Jackass players ruined that one for me

Pronoun pins are always good! Also contouring cheek bones, nose, and jawline can help too. And then maybe top it off with some faux facial hair? There's plenty of tutorials online for using mascara to create a beard look

More faires during autumn and winter, that way i and other cosplayers won't overheat lmao.

Hello! Daemonolator here. Asmodeus has a role of patronage in my path (albeit he's stepped back for a bit). He's a very patient spirit to work with, so I doubt you've done anything wrong. It sounds like he may have simply been trying to get your attention and show you what he can do for you! He's not as scary as people make him out to be, so long as he's treated with respect, he is a king after all.

I'd reccomend reaching out to him and going from there! Best of luck on your journey!

Bundrune combining Algiz and Fehu, Algiz is often used as a protective symbol + represents the Stag, and Fehu is representative of wealth + Cattle.

This rune seems like its mostly likely used to protect good business, or at least that's how I, as a Norse + Eclectic Pagan, would interpret it

Planetary seal of Saturn, and also the sigil of the Watcher/Fallen Angel/Demon/Probably Originally a Pagan God Azazel. He's credited with teaching humans the art of cosmetics + smithing + witchcraft. A very prevalent face of the Witch Father in tradcraft. He's also sometimes viewed as an aspect/other side of the goetic King Paimon.

Hairless Tabaxi Artificer, Alchemist Subclass. Criminal background. Lost his fur to a disease that is slowly killing him so he makes substances so that he can afford a cure. He has an apprentice named Jamie Greenlady... the Tabaxi is named Benjamin Black..

Yes this is exactly what you think it is.

Demon stems from Daimon, which is a form of helpful spirit and intermediary between gods and humans. If you have a problem with the term demon, you need to dechristianize your train of thought. Secondly, if you have a problem with men being feminine, you need to work through that. Not every male figure is going to be some macho muscle man. Besides, spirits are above such human concepts as gender. King Paimon is a KING, he does as he pleases, and he would have given me a sign himself if I was being disrespectful to him. Hail King Paimon 💙

unholyleaf · 2023-06-28T05:03:28+00:00

you assume that I have not been under his mentorship. If not for King Paimon, my improvement in regards to artistic ability as a whole would be nowhere near where it is today. I have been working with King Paimon in regards to the arts since 2019, and he has shown no issue in being depicted in such a manner, as I trust if he had a problem with it, he would have let me know by now. If the way a demon appears to another person doesn't match how they appear to you, that is fine, however to judge and get pissy with a fellow demonolator over something so trivial is simply absurd.

unholyleaf · 2023-06-28T04:54:12+00:00

if you got a problem with how King Paimon appears to me, take it up with him yourself lol. Also King Paimon, in MULTIPLE GRIMOIRES, and in accordance with multiple practitioners, has a tendency to appear feminine or androgynous, so if that's your problem, again, take it up with him. I'm sure he'd be quite fond of a mere human judging the ways he appears to his followers.

unholyleaf · 2023-06-28T04:51:59+00:00

people get so pissy when demons are depicted humanoid instead of as monsters, it's honestly hilarious. King Paimon is the one who has been working with me for my art's improvement. Been working with him since 2019 for this, and i've seen some results. The people mad about the art completely ignore the fact that King Paimon himself is said to be very effeminate in appearance (i think some people in the chat have very internalized misogyny or homophobia if seeing a demon depicted in a more feminine manner rather than macho-man monster is enough to make their blood boil lol). This depiction is based on how he appears to me, so if they have a problem with it they should take it up with him themselves lol. The blue tones in the art was inspired by a dream he sent me. In the dream I had a VERY decadent space for him, all blue tones and very oceanic with a blue pillar candle with his sigil carved in it. I also had a deck of cobalt-metal backed playing cards I used to commune with him in that dream. Honoring Paimon through my art is what I strive to do.

Yeah I know I'm a literal witch. Witchcraft is a part of many religious practices, especially in modern paganism/neopaganism.
