i’ve got two zhongli origin theories

1. he’s a fallen star or a piece of the sun that fell in teyvat or a sun god/solar chariot

2. hes a servant of celestia but was banished/demoted for disobedience

theory 1 is an old theory but i always feel he’s an astral body of some sorts “planet befall” is his burst name “stars dim light fades” is his namecard description “gold is the tears of the sun” this is what the melusines say after being handed a piece of cor lapis the fact the solar chariot crashed when rex lapis was young and then zhongli is always symbolized by the sun with gold as his signature item. All the other archons (ei, rukkha, nahida, furina etc) are represented by the moon as are many other deities or divinities (azhdaha, guizhong, xiao and ganyu) zhongli is one of the few immortals to fully embody the sun

theory 2 has more to do with his connections to celestia. while super subject to change and not at all reliable i always think about one of zhongli’s beta lines is about celestia and he speaks very fondly of it stating he hasn’t been there is a long time next is the mora he produces with the triquetra symbol associated with celestia

then in chinese it states zhongli was demoted 6000 years ago when he arrived in teyvat as opposed to the eng version of ‘descended’.

In his 5th character story prior to rukkha getting erased it stated that barbatos and morax were the only original members of the seven and now it states that they were the only two in positions of leadership but isn’t that the same thing? not to mention barbatos fell asleep the same time nahida was born so in reality of the original 7 only rex lapis was in a position of leadership and then in the same text later down it still says that “The seven seats changed and again were changed, till five of the seven at the table were all departed” but if he really forgot rukkha shouldn’t it be four not five? this section of text is the same pre and post sumeru so long story short i think he remembers rukkha to some extent so he didn’t come straight from tevyat

and then even though he states he’s eroding he is very confident in his memories likely due to his contracts so i think erosion effects him differently and then their is his connection to the heavenly principles he specifically states erosion was imposed on him by them and then he praises furina for deceiving them and then there is his contract with them that stops him from talking about the cataclysm all in all i believe he’s familiar with the heavenly principles on a deeper level like he’s playing both sides

bonus: i think it’s neat zhongli is always associated with life and creation much like celestia (and the sun), he gave azhdaha eyes and created the archaic petra flower he created whales and eagles and beasts made of stone granted the adepti illumination and a mastery over alchemy

bonus bonus: morax was alive during the age of the 3 moon sisters and there are few stories were it’s implied he mentions them directly anyway this just means he’s far older than 6000 and has lived through numerous tevyat societies so he’s got a very long lifespan not as much as an elemental being but he knows far more about this world

bonus bonus bonus: zhongli’s 6th constellation is “Chrysos, Bounty of Dominator”. Chrysos is latin but is borrowed from ancient greek meaning Gold (Khrysos). Khrysos is a daimon which are lesser divinities in greek mythology and often a personification of abstract concepts. Daimons were great and powerful figures who after their death were granted divinity and some were transformed by Zeus to guide humanity. Khrysos is son of Zeus and the personification of gold and wealth ‘that cannot be devoured by moth or rust’. Son of Zeus? Free of impurities? Tasked with guiding humanity? Very similar to the relationship to the archons and celestia and could mean zhongli has very divine origins.

anyway that’s what i got, as to what he *is* maybe he’s a celestial dragon that got demoted.

or i think about heavenly chinese immortals who, when they commit crimes, or want to grow as a person, may be sent to the human realm to go through trials and suffering that comes with living and guess what zhongli does in his free time.

May he’s a piece of the sun that crashed down in teyvat and got assigned godhood hence his dedication to the future and seeing a new day

#zhongli #zhongli headcanons #genshin impact #did you know in tcg of the character cards only paimon and zhongli’s card produce omni dice #omni dice which is associated with the 8th element and the primordial one- okay i’ll shut up #i think he was chilling in celestia and got booted and now he sits on earth calling them trash under his breath #that’s all i got #i could talk more and provide more references but that’s exhausting! #he could be just a chill adeptus at the end of day #did you know chrysoprase is a type of rock but this one is green #it’s greenish gemstone that’s pretty rare and valuable due to its unique composition and color #anyway i’m gonna stop now #you want zhongli lore? have fun reading up on the ideal chinese man immortal god while also dipping into ancient latin #why are you latin too? like he’s not just chinese he’s latin too WHY #i think he’s a meteor or piece of the sun that crashed onto earth #that’s why is on the edge of descender not descender #the only other one whose got really strong sun symbols is deshret

“The Cuphead Show isn’t that funny, these jokes are boring.”

....You’re gonna tell me Demon Kettle wasn’t funny?? Or when Mugman accidentally killed Ludwig (Actually I think he’s still kind of alive)? Or Devil coming out wearing a towel around him when he’s already covered in fur or accidentally killing his demons? Dice flirting with himself in the mirror or running through the gates of hell with dramatic music playing while wearing his suit?? Stickler??

I feel so sad for you.

Y’all my husband bought me opalite (man-made “gemstone” that is more accurately a type of glass) dice for my birthday they’re so beautiful I’m love 💜💜💜

#I’ve wanted opalite dice for years #they’re just always so expensive #I can take or leave Thanksgiving and Black Friday #but I just got dice I rarely see for less than $70 for like $40 #because of Black Friday deals #Star's Random Rambling

So what you're saying is: Stewart is a walking nat1, maybe a 10 if his luck is high enough

I MEAN…YEAH TBH

Any time he gets a nat 20, we cheer (i mean we cheer for anyone), but for stew it feels rare he gets a nat 20

#WHICH IS NOT GREAT WHEN HES A CHAMPION SUBCLASS #don’t choose that subclass #it doesn’t offer a whole lot and if you don’t have great luck with the dice (like I do) it doesn’t do much #when he had his head caved in he had disadvantage on anything wisdom based #AND AS SOMEONE WITH A WISDOM OF 10- he rarely did good on those and it nearly killed him once ahfjsbf

Masterlist

"Have you ever cut your finger before?

It's such a small, insignificant wound, yet it bleeds so much and it burns. It burns for a good while, and accidents like that happen so fast, you barely register it before it's over. It's because the skin on your palm and fingers is a lot more sensitive than it is on the rest of your body. It makes sense if you think about it; you do use your hands to gather information about objects, so they have to be sensitive.

Injuries on your hands are annoying too. They constantly reopen, because you keep moving them around. They heal slower because of that.

I want you to imagine you cutting your hand while slicing some onions. It's a searing pain that will stay and bleed. You won't be able to forget about it, despite it being such a little cut, still bleeding and sending jolts up your tendons hours later, making your finger curl. You can cover it with a single bandage, yet you will constantly see and feel it getting irritated.

Now, I want you to imagine your hand cut to pieces, sliced open over and over, across each digit, each muscle. I want you to imagine a blade dividing your flesh slowly, meticulously. I want you to see white under all that blood in some places, see your muscles work uselessly, struggling to obey your instincts to tear away and hug your fist close to your chest. I want you to imagine what it would be like to experience that same accident slower and more, so much more. I want you to imagine what it would really feel like to watch your hand be dissected, twitching and ruined, never to heal right again.

Can you comprehend how much it would hurt? How desperately you would scream and wail? How badly you would want it to end barely two cuts in? How it would go on and on, until there is nothing left but a puddle of gore at the end of your arm?

...Do you see it all in front of you? Can you see your own hand being mutilated like that?

Good. I want you to do something else for me now.

I want you to give me your hand."

#whump #creepy whumper #my writing #whump writing #tw: gore #sadistic whumper #whumper #whumper's pov #delicious mental image ive cooked up today #a rare sight #side note: imagine all this being said with whumper holding whumpee and leaning over them while they're cutting onions #leading their hands carefully and skillfully #dicing it up #and whispering it all in their ear as they come closer and closer to chopping into Whumpee's hand #of course nothing like that happens #until the end that is #I'm thinking again...

me watching video essays on the theory of creating horror (as in analytical theory not matpat game theory) and being like ah yes i can use this for my dnd campaign yes...

#hipp speaks #maybe i will compile all that ive learned one day cuz tbh!! #there arent that many good “how to create horror in dnd campaigns” videos out there despite how many there are #like a lot of them are lacking in terms of how to create tension and get ur players on edge #for example music is a really helpful tool and the addition (and later) subtraction of music/changes to music alone can get players on edge #but like even beyond that!! #taking away the ability to defend ones self via weapons or magic #forcing the players into situations where the only thing they can do is run or hide #and then rolling dice becomes more like the rng of a monster finding the player in a video game #introducing the idea of a monster that can appear at any time during the campaign a la resident evil 3 #AND STEAL IDEAS FROM HORROR GAMES #i feel like a lot of the horror dnd videos i watch get too caught up in trying to wrangle the 5e rules to fit into a horror narrative #when really 5e being so combat focused just CANNOT work with horror and has to be changed slightly/focus on the rp of it instead #like why do you think horror games rarely give players a gun until a mid to late game if at all #they gotta create that sense of asymmetricallity!!!!!

Shadowheart in other people's playthroughs apparently: Every day I have to cast lesser restoration!!

Shadowheart in my playthroughs: what do you mean she's out there tackling everything while Bloodless? WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE'S WINNING?!

#bg3 #shadowheart #Bloodless literally doesnt bother me enough to stick lesser restoration on anyone its only a minus one #it rarely actually makes me fail on anything #also I dont mean this in a bragging way I mean this in a -nothing will prepare you for the sheer luck of a chronic dumbass- kinda way #im just lucky the dice usually aren't that dismayed with me

Open to: Men on their 18th birthday. Bottoms preferred, but won't turn around a hot young top.

This was going to be a mistake. It was a fucking mistake, and he knew it was coming so he should have prepared himself for it, but he hadn't. He saw the balloons go up on the mailbox when he was out for a jog at 2am. Today was the neighbor kid's birthday. His 18th, to be exact. The kid first made a pass at him at the 4th of July party 3 years ago. At the time, he made a joke of it, rolling his eyes and saying "yeah, yeah, call me when you're 18." But the kid persisted. He'd flirt with him, make suggestive comments, but he never budged. He was a criminal, yes, but not a monster, after all. But just like he was dreading, his phone let out a ding just seconds after he saw his neighbor's parent's car pull out of the driveway. They wouldn't be back for 8 hours. He should have just tossed his phone away, but he didn't. Instead, he texted back. "Boy, run that ass over here before I change my fucking mind."

Ancient Greek twenty sided dice have been found in Egypt and I like to think they were rolling really high for nature when they created their irrigation systems
