TABAQUI THE JACKAL - The Gray House

PROPAGANDA:

He's in a wheelchair, hates time, hoarder, and is never quiet. I wanted to give this lil guy - and the book - some attention > [https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/10002469-i-don-t-like-stories-i-like-moments-i-like-night]

Honestly the book excerpt might be better propaganda. The Gray House is a novel written in Russian originally

Meet Tabaqui, Shere Khan's jackal minion. He's based on a character from the original book

I don’t have a fc for her yet but my mongoose shifter is so cute. She likes shiny things and pick pockets and usually gets into shit because of it but she has zero regrets and usually charms her way out of it all the time

#her and Ashmi have a similar relationship to #Shere khan & Tabaqui the jackal in the book. #she’s just her little shadow and Ashmi #is vaguely annoyed but also the company is welcome. #out of character.

Blind: *touch* Tabaqui: *gasp* We have the incomparable Long Gaby as a guest, and I'm not in a formal waistcoat!

Blind: Jackal says I have ears like a dog right now. Tabaqui: SURE!!

When I was in college, I decided to read the origin books of famous stories. It was a choice I did not regret, but I do feel a lot of regrets about how so many characters have become parodies or antithesis of themselves.

The most famous is, of course, the Creature from Frankenstein. Everything related to him and his purpose in the novel has been all but lost to the green bolt-neck of modern times. Never mind how Victor went from creating the creature in a university dorm to owning a castle, a huge laboratory and even having a servant helping him to create the Creature.

The themes of neglectful parents and the cycle of cruelty manifesting in the child are completely gone. Doctor Frankenstein is more than happy to have the Creature as it is and the theme is about creating life in itself being bad.

The book and the popular culture version aren't even the same story. They have completely different messages and characters. Igor is taken from a later stage play and has nothing to do with the novel.

Another great injustice is how Dorian Gray is treated. He is often made much MUCH older and much wiser than he was in the book. Dorian is said to be hundreds of years old, indestructible and his only weakness is seeing his own painting.

None of these details are found in the book. For one, Dorian is a blond and blue-eyed twink and not a tall dark and mysterious brunette. Second, he often looked at his portrait, that is how he knew there was magic afoot. Third and most amusing; Dorian only lasted for maybe 40 years before he got himself killed. And Dorian was by no means indestructible, given he suffered from epic opium withdrawals and was often afraid for his life.

In short, Dorian Gray was an idiot and remained an idiot who could hide his addictions and vices and died an idiot who stabbed his own portrait in anger. The best part has to be, that Dorian accomplished absolutely nothing in his years of glamour. He ruined many lives and left behind nothing but trinkets.

Now, with Dracula Daily letting us meet the cast of the novel, so many assumed tropes from adapted media are shown false. Mina is clearly in love with Jonathan and has no ties to Dracula from a past life. Lucy is not a loose woman, but someone who had three people she truly liked propose to her. Even then, she made her choice very early on and let the other two know of her choice quickly.

I think one of the biggest character changes has to be Shere-Khan from the Jungle Books. You see, while Shere-Khan is a maneater, he is one through no choice of his own. Shere-Khan, nicknamed by his mother as Lungri (the lame one) was born with a deformed paw. This meant he could not hunt prey like a normal tiger and had to resort to eating carrion or humans. As Shere-Khan was basically the laughingstock of the jungle, only Tabaqui the golden jackal was his friend. Both were seen as losers.

Yet, only one adaptation has actually addressed this aspect of Shere-Khan. The rest have entirely removed his disability and so his reason for hunting humans. Often, he is made to be this dangerous and regal predator, which the book Shere-Khan wanted to be but never was.

These are only some characters changed over the years and adaptations. I hope you enjoyed my little showcase of literary history.

Dish Licker is wild😭

the username? its from the Jungle Book!

"It was the jackal--Tabaqui, the Dish-licker--and the wolves of India despise Tabaqui because he runs about making mischief, and telling tales, and eating rags and pieces of leather from the village rubbish-heaps. But they are afraid of him too, because Tabaqui, more than anyone else in the jungle, is apt to go mad, and then he forgets that he was ever afraid of anyone, and runs through the forest biting everything in his way."

Day 18 of Inktober, a little personal depiction of an Animal Antagonist from Old Classic Literature, Shere Khan.

My Personal Interpretation of the Main Antagonist of the Mowgli Stories from Rudyard Kipling's collection, "The Jungle Book".

He's known as "Lungri", nicknamed by his Mother meaning, "The Lame One" since he was only born with a crippled paw. He has a Lackey Henchmen named "Tabaqui" (a Jackal), he is Mowgli's Arch-Nemesis and he entirely HATES Humans with a Passion. He once attacked a Group of Humans (most likely a Family) and when the Human Child escaped, the Infant was lost in the Jungle and ended up in the Wolves' Den where Mother Wolf (Raksha) nursed the Baby. But when Shere Khan found out that his last victim was not dead, he threatened to murder the baby but Mother Wolf stood up to the Tiger, threatening him back that Karma will one day bite him.

He is barely feared among the Jungle, and when he tried to have the pack of Wolves against Akela, Mowgli held up the Red Flower (in which, we Humans call is "Fire") against Shere Khan as he wacked his face with the flames. But that's not the entire end of him as he does fall into Mowgli's trap when a Buffalo Stampede killed him.

Shere Khan (c) Rudyard Kipling

Kaa's Hunting

All that is told here happened some time before Mowgli was turned out of the Seeonee Wolf Pack, or revenged himself on Shere Khan the tiger. It was in the days when Baloo was teaching him the Law of the Jungle. The big, serious, old brown bear was delighted to have so quick a pupil, for the young wolves will only learn as much of the Law of the Jungle as applies to their own pack and tribe, and run away as soon as they can repeat the Hunting Verse—“Feet that make no noise; eyes that can see in the dark; ears that can hear the winds in their lairs, and sharp white teeth, all these things are the marks of our brothers except Tabaqui the Jackal and the Hyaena whom we hate.” But Mowgli, as a man-cub, had to learn a great deal more than this. Sometimes Bagheera the Black Panther would come lounging through the jungle to see how his pet was getting on, and would purr with his head against a tree while Mowgli recited the day’s lesson to Baloo. The boy could climb almost as well as he could swim, and swim almost as well as he could run. So Baloo, the Teacher of the Law, taught him the Wood and Water Laws: how to tell a rotten branch from a sound one; how to speak politely to the wild bees when he came upon a hive of them fifty feet above ground; what to say to Mang the Bat when he disturbed him in the branches at midday; and how to warn the water-snakes in the pools before he splashed down among them. None of the Jungle People like being disturbed, and all are very ready to fly at an intruder. Then, too, Mowgli was taught the Strangers’ Hunting Call, which must be repeated aloud till it is answered, whenever one of the Jungle-People hunts outside his own grounds. It means, translated, “Give me leave to hunt here because I am hungry.” And the answer is, “Hunt then for food, but not for pleasure.”

All this will show you how much Mowgli had to learn by heart, and he grew very tired of saying the same thing over a hundred times. But, as Baloo said to Bagheera, one day when Mowgli had been cuffed and run off in a temper, “A man’s cub is a man’s cub, and he must learn all the Law of the Jungle.”

“But think how small he is,” said the Black Panther, who would have spoiled Mowgli if he had had his own way. “How can his little head carry all thy long talk?”

“Is there anything in the jungle too little to be killed? No. That is why I teach him these things, and that is why I hit him, very softly, when he forgets.”

“Softly! What dost thou know of softness, old Iron-feet?” Bagheera grunted. “His face is all bruised today by thy—softness. Ugh.”

“Better he should be bruised from head to foot by me who love him than that he should come to harm through ignorance,” Baloo answered very earnestly. “I am now teaching him the Master Words of the Jungle that shall protect him with the birds and the Snake People, and all that hunt on four feet, except his own pack. He can now claim protection, if he will only remember the words, from all in the jungle. Is not that worth a little beating?”

“Well, look to it then that thou dost not kill the man-cub. He is no tree trunk to sharpen thy blunt claws upon. But what are those Master Words? I am more likely to give help than to ask it”—Bagheera stretched out one paw and admired the steel-blue, ripping-chisel talons at the end of it—“still I should like to know.”

“I will call Mowgli and he shall say them—if he will. Come, Little Brother!”

“My head is ringing like a bee tree,” said a sullen little voice over their heads, and Mowgli slid down a tree trunk very angry and indignant, adding as he reached the ground: “I come for Bagheera and not for thee, fat old Baloo!”

“That is all one to me,” said Baloo, though he was hurt and grieved. “Tell Bagheera, then, the Master Words of the Jungle that I have taught thee this day.”

“Master Words for which people?” said Mowgli, delighted to show off. “The jungle has many tongues. I know them all.”

“A little thou knowest, but not much. See, O Bagheera, they never thank their teacher. Not one small wolfling has ever come back to thank old Baloo for his teachings. Say the word for the Hunting-People, then—great scholar.”

“We be of one blood, ye and I,” said Mowgli, giving the words the Bear accent which all the Hunting People use.

“Good. Now for the birds.”

Mowgli repeated, with the Kite’s whistle at the end of the sentence.

“Now for the Snake-People,” said Bagheera.

Tabaqui the Jackal wasn’t featured in the Walt Disney 1967 animated version of The Jungle Book in an early draft from Rudyard Kipling’s story, but he did appear in the direct to video live action Disney of Mowgli’s Story. In fact, like most Kipling stories of the same name, The Jungle Book has inspired dozens of projects from film and TV to count. The story of a boy Mowgli who was raised by wolves in the Indian Jungle. His journey back to human civilization met with his encounters by his friends, Baloo the Bear, and Bagheera the Panther, as they protect him from the murderous obsessive Tiger, Shere Khan. If any of haven’t seen more Jungle Book projects, make it one of your Bare Necessities. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cha9o09ONJ7/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Thinking about giving Ashmi a little jackal shapeshifter companion like the Shere Khan / Tabaqui dynamic in the Jungle Book only he was a hyena…

He’s just her lil shadow, worships the ground she walks on, and she just tolerates him & enjoys his conversation you know?

#out of character. #it’d be strictly platonic #he just thinks powerful awesome lady??? #it’s more like an idolization.

OOC:: literally the only character I care about.

#mowgli spoilers #//damn that was some good voice acting #//not a jackal of course but still a great tabaqui

[baekhest]

a) shere khan having a withered foot in this adaptation is a neat bit of book accuracy

b) IS THAT FUCKING TABAQUI?

#I was kinda hoping tabaqui would be in the disney one that came out a couple of years ago #mowgli #the animal faces look uncanny as all hell tbh #it's hard to tell but it looks like he might be a golden jackal which would be neat because golden jackals are neat #but he also might be a hyena? #idk I'm overthinking this
