This is probably just a mistake in her character design, but aren't Sarkaz supposed to have pointy ears?

cant believe all those theories about the angels actually being corrupted versions of the "devils" were casually confirmed in a single throwaway line.

I don't think arknights' "races" are strictly biological categories, for obvious reasons. like, i'm pretty sure we already have confirmation that the sarkaz are a group of biologically distinctive peoples that just use the same name for historical/political reasons.
but see, i think the same can be said of the aegir. sharks and orcas are very different animals! so i think it's probably best to view the aegir as more akin to sarkaz than, say, lupo.

Another fun lore book fact for you: Oni are a Sarkaz subrace like Anasa.
I fucking knew it!
Or at least I wanted it to be true.
Thanks.
Considering the classical image and opinion of oni in Japan, I wonder if the oni of Higashi face similar discrimination as Sarkaz elsewhere.
Were Yato and Noir Corne coincidentally both oni and assassins, or is that the sort of thing that Higashi lords thinks is most suitable for oni vassals?

I’ve had this idea for a while, ever since I played through Birth of Tragedy, about what it actually means to be King of Sarkaz and how Sarkaz prophecy functions. I’ve seen others come to similar conclusions, and we keep getting things that fit, so I think it’s time for me to share it.
Spoilers if you haven’t gotten through Roaring Flare.
In 7-18 After Kal’tsit has a few very interesting lines:
The Sarkaz prophecy is born out of their collective racial memory.
The last of the ancient Wendigo bloodline is directly connected to the entire Sarkaz race?!
Patriot! Don’t believe the prophecy! It’s just a physiological side effect of the Originium Arts!
Okay, so Sarkaz have a collective racial memory, an interconnected web of subtle arts forming a network of latent telepathy throughout the entire race. This is important.
So now let’s talk about Amiya’s arts.
Amiya can cause others to have visions and access the emotions and memories of others. We see her access the Sarkaz racial memory in JT8-2 After. In fact, it is this act which convinces Kashchey that she is the real thing.
Talulah?: It’s genuine. Congratulations, Cautus.
Talulah?: You’re not a fragment, not an experiment, not an impostor.
Talulah?: You are indeed the Lord of Sarkaz... the enemy of humanity.
Amiya: No, I’m nothing but an Infected.
Amiya: A... person.
I think the main function of Amiya’s arts is to actively access the Sarkaz racial telepathy network. If that is the case, then King of Sarkaz is not just a political title, it’s what you call an individual who can command the Sarkaz like the head of a hive-mind. I think you can see this best in the Vigilo story Cogitatio with how the Sarkaz Traitor (Marco) acts.
Doctor: You're still lost. You don't know your own destiny. But 'He' wants it.
Doctor: It doesn't matter who 'you' are. He knows that there will always be people like you, and there will always be such a bridge.
Sarkaz Traitor: Who are you talking about?
Doctor: They awakened you, worked you up, and it's not so I could listen to your talk.
Doctor: He wants to know what Theresa says, and how I react.
Used like a puppet, unaware he was even acting on the will of others, and as soon as Theresa appears his loyalty immediately returns. It’s a subtle, subconscious, and incomplete control, but control all the same.
I think Sarkaz prophecy may function on this network as well. Patterns emerge, processing in the backgrounds of an entire race’s minds, a calculation born from millions of minds and millions of memories predicting what is to come. A powerful Sarkaz may have this pattern revealed to them under the right conditions, and you get a prophecy.
There’s another side to this though, the possibility that these prophecies are self-fulfilling. We know Amiya can affect the minds of others, what if the network affects the minds of the Sarkaz, subconsciously turning them into agents of this manufactured fate.
What I find the most worrying about all of this though is that Amiya’s powers function on non-Sarkaz. What if the Sarkaz network can effect them as well? Could anyone become subtly swayed to fulfill the prophecies of the Sarkaz?
What are the limits of the Sarkaz King’s control?
Vigilo - Pignus:
Closure: That was Theresa—same as she looked on the news, too. No Sarkaz would ever mistake her for anyone else.
PRTS: It's possible that there are others who share the same general appearance. If someone who looked like Theresa had appeared...
Closure: Nope, not possible. Even if there were someone like that, we'd never get it wrong.
Closure: The monarch herself showed up and waltzed into my little room. Then she told me she was looking for someone to break the shackles of tradition, and for that she needed an engineer, the key to her plans.
Closure: She didn't even try to explain anything to me at first, nope. Not a word to try to convince me to go with her.
Closure: If it had been anybody but Theresa, I'd've thought they were nuts and would've thrown them right out the window.
PRTS: So you turned her down?
Closure: Nope, I accepted her offer.
Closure: I said yes... because of the curiosity that'd been driving me the whole time.
7-18 After:
Patriot: I heard, in the past, Lords of Sarkaz, gave visions of comfort, as favors.
Patriot: Their champions, could see great walls, or loves long passed—
Patriot: Countless soldiers, for these visions, fought ceaselessly.
JT8-2 Before:
Talulah?: Cautus, if I were to ask you to build me an illusion that would entrance me forever... would you refuse?
Amiya: Nnh...!
Talulah?: Would you hold back and avoid using this kind of power?
Amiya: I won't answer you.
Talulah?: Your expression and hesitation betray your thoughts, self-proclaimed kind Cautus.
Amiya: I've never said that!
Talulah?: Your actions speak louder than words, false Infected warrior.
Talulah?: Black Arts that absorb memories but do not differentiate between consciousness. Not a unilateral extraction, but rather proliferation and acquisition that goes both ways...
7-18 After:
I see cities, devastated.
I see Originium, blanketing the land.
I see you, black crown on your head, melting millions of lives, into nothing but memories.
I see the, King of Sarkaz, enslaving all peoples, everywhere.
You will be the most horrific disaster to afflict our world.

Ah, wow, I am surprisingly invested in the story and as rarely as it happens I am going to be on my merry way reading it starting chapter 1. Seriously, what's the worst that they can throw at me starting there.
Tumblr media
Kazdel and Babel and an entire royal congregation of people who are just trying to survive but literally nobody is allowing them and I can't decide throughout this entire day if I want to help them or kill them.
That is... What...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also, they apparently have a Litch. I didn't think they would be using that word specifically since we have a lot going on in terms of races and occupations but I didn't expect the Litch.
Tumblr media
Also did not expect to be up at 6:50 A. M. but the job is the job like it or not. Funny that out of nowhere we meet Warfarin.
All the people who are Kal'tsit apologists saying she would not be hurting the Doctor or using Mon3ter against us... Did we collectively decide to wipe the mention that he was used to pin Warfarin to the side of RI because she was misbehaving?
Tumblr media
While Dr. Kryo is asleep I sneakily did 2 more stages ALL on my own. Definitely didn't struggle and result into Mudrock for all of them. After which I took him on another glorious path to primes since Suzuran's skin is coming out and she is SO adorable. I don't even HAVE Suzuran but this is the second skin I am about to get.
Tumblr media
GOD THEY'RE SO UGLY OH MY GOD
Ew looking at them makes me-- *gag*
They're so fast, holy Mother of Rhodes,
Tumblr media
I hate them I hate them I hate them
So much, not even the hate that makes me want to eat them like in Sultifera I just want to kill them.
Tumblr media
Take WHO ho-
Tumblr media
I see.
I love her maamn I think I will be using you as my only Bard. Thank you and come along into the pink fox-like gang.

Sarkaz Lethality on nouns and verbs
Pretty simple.
Nouns are marked for whether they were/are/will be dead or not (nouns considered "inanimate" are not exempt from this).
Verbs have a special mood for if the action resulted in the death of someone. the verbs terat 'to be dead', trat 'kill', and tetra 'die' are exempt from this marking.
