N'thon, a serpent dragon is conquered by the lizard dragon, Stev'n, who disappears shortly after taking him as mate. Left bereft, the serpent finds himself carrying the missing dragon's child. Hearing that dragons carry their young for as long as a century, N'thon hides amongst humans, calling himself Anthony and then Tony. He learns to tinker, learns to care for the growing dragon inside of him and adopts Pepper and Rhodey as his treasures.
When Steve is thawed by Shield, he has no memory of being anything other than a human. Then Steve meets Iron Man, Tony Stark and all he knows is that he is drawn to that man but also immensely bothered by his presence.
It isn't until Tony flies the nuke inside the wormhole and then falls back to earth in his dragon form, his flames extinguished that Steve remembers himself as Stev'n.
His and Hulk's mingled roars jump starts Tony's heart and the two dragons reunite. After Steve yells at Tony for being so reckless in his condition.
Almost a two decades later, Peter is born and now Steve wants more kids the dragon family is complete.

""THIS IS MY GIFT TO YOU. ITS LEAVES ARE MORE PRECIOUS THAN GREEN PLUMES...""
PIC INFO: Spotlight on the feathered serpent god of Mesoamerican culture, Quetzalcoatl, from Eric Carle's "Dragons, Dragons, and Other Creatures that Never Were" (1988), illustrated by the late, great Eric Carle (1929-2021).
"In the world's young days, Farmer met Quetzalcoatl in a field by one rustling plant. Like the wind, he whispered in Farmer's ear, "This is my gift to you. Its leaves are more precious than green plumes, its heart richer than jade." Farmer asked, "what is its name?" And the serpent whispered, "Maize.""

Verse List
inspired by @hvbris​​, a collection of verses that I have for my muses and would love to explore in rps.  This list is by no means complete, though I will try to update it with new muses and ideas as they hit, and I’m very very open to talking about other verses!
Tumblr media
𝔞𝔦𝔰𝔩𝔦𝔫𝔤 𝔤𝔯𝔢𝔶𝔧𝔬𝔶 ⊱⋆⊰ 𝔠𝔞𝔫𝔬𝔫
( primarily shipped with Jamie Lannister, happily open to shipping her with other characters, canon or oc, of any genders!  My other dream ships for her would be Robb Stark, Jon Snow, Sansa Stark, Oberyn Martell, and Margaery Tyrell, but I am entirely flexible and willing to talk about other ideas )
Arranged Marriage Verse
Within her canon, Aisling is forced to marry Jamie Lannister as a prisoner in King’s Landing, but I’d be very happy to explore an arranged marriage with another ship 
Aisling leaves Kings Landing with Sansa
Instead of staying in King’s Landing with Jamie after Joffrey’s death, Aisling follows Sansa into the godswood and onto the boat.  She severely distrusts Littlefinger and is constantly butting heads with him due to her desire to protect Sansa from his predatory nature.
Aisling grew up in Pyke
Instead of taking both of the youngest Greyjoys to Winterfell, Ned Stark only took Theon, leaving Aisling to grow up in Pyke, angry and trained for war, and neither able nor willing to be a proper, quiet, used and manipulated, little girl
Historical Fiction
taking away the dragons, white walkers, and warging, Aisling Greyjoy in any era of history
Modern verse
21st century AUs, from boarding schools to modern royalty, college to a specific fandom, anything that takes place in the modern world
Tumblr media
𝔞𝔪𝔢𝔱𝔥𝔶𝔰𝔱 𝔞𝔫𝔡𝔯𝔢𝔴𝔰 ⊱⋆⊰ 𝔠𝔞𝔫𝔬𝔫
( primarily shipped with Sweet Pea and Jughead Jones, as well as a queerplatonic relationship with the other teen serpents, very tentatively open to other romantic relationships, happily open to other platonic dynamics for her — my favourite dynamics for her are malachai, archie andrews, kevin keller, fred andrews, and fp jones, but I am willing to talk about other canon and oc ideas! )
Fake Dating verse
Ghoulie Amy AU
Wherein Amy, furious that Jughead was made Serpent King over her, defects to the one place where she has always felt valued and respected — her rightful place at Malachai’s side.  Can be done as a ship with Jughead, Sweet Pea, or Malachai himself
Road Trip
In the aftermath of Judgement Night, Archie’s arrest, and the Sisters of Quiet Mercy, Amy needs out of Riverdale.  Along with any combination of Jughead, Sweet Pea, Toni, Fangs, and Joaquin, she hops in a car and leaves Riverdale in her rearview mirror, no idea where she’s going or when she’ll be back, only planning to drive until she feels like she can breathe
Reality TV verse
With the seemingly endless tragedies striking Riverdale, a producer with limited morals and a strong desire for a profit, decides to start a reality show about the once peaceful town
Tumblr media
𝔞𝔯𝔦𝔞𝔫𝔫𝔢 𝔪𝔞𝔯𝔱𝔦𝔫 ⊱⋆⊰ 𝔠𝔞𝔫𝔬𝔫
( primarily shipped with Stiles Stilinski, Scott McCall, and Erica Reyes, happily open to shipping her with other characters, canon or oc, of any genders!  My other dream ship for her would be Derek Hale, but I am entirely flexible and willing to talk about other ideas, and I do call her my crossover bicycle for a reason )
Fake Dating verse
Dating to go undercover?  Dating for the press / Ari’s social media?  Dating just because someone won’t take the hint?  Whatever it may be, and whoever it might be with, Ari has wanted a chance to fake date someone since she was 13
Boarding School verse
A boarding school for Supernatural creatures?  Fame but with werewolves?  No magic at all, just rich brats and scholarship kids who live at school?  Open to any ship or platonic, OP here is just a sucker for this at all times
Celebrity verse
Does another member of the pack become famous?  Are werewolves traded away for child stars?  Is someone shoved into the spotlight because of their connection to Ari?  Any Hollywood-based AU that plays with Ari’s existing teen idol status is welcome, any ships or platonic
Holiday Fling
Arianne left Beacon Hills for Hollywood again and hasn’t looked back.  But now it’s Christmas and she’s heading home for the season — is she bringing someone along with her, or having a fling with someone she left behind?  Open to any ship or platonic, bonus points for Tis The Damn Season vibes
Reality TV verse
Arianne Martin is pretty damn iconic, but so much of her life is shrouded in mystery.  A producer with more balls than brains decides to be the one to unpack the True Story behind the teen star, dragging her friends and family into it whether they like it or not
Tumblr media
𝔟𝔯𝔦𝔤𝔦𝔡 ⊱⋆⊰ 𝔠𝔞𝔫𝔬𝔫
( primarily shipped with Tony Stark, Druig, and Ikaris, happily open to shipping her with other characters, canon or oc, of any genders!  My other dream ships for her would be Thor, Steve Rogers, Bucky Barnes, Sam Wilson, and Sif, but I am entirely flexible and willing to talk about other ideas, and I would love to explore platonic dynamics with any avenger or eternal )
Royalty Verse
Where instead of, or as well as, being heroes from another planet, the Eternals are royalty
Period verses
Connected to canon or not, Brigid set in any time period that she would have spent on earth 
Tumblr media
𝔠𝔞𝔪𝔦𝔩𝔞 𝔫𝔢𝔩𝔰𝔬𝔫 ⊱⋆⊰ 𝔠𝔞𝔫𝔬𝔫 ( coming soon )
( primarily shipped with Steve Harrington, happily open to shipping her with other characters, canon or oc, of any genders!  Some other potential ships could be Nancy Wheeler, Carol Perkins, Tommy Hagan, Eddie Munson, or Chrissy Cunningham, and I would also enjoy exploring a toxic dynamic with Billy Hargrove, but I am entirely flexible and willing to talk about other ideas )
Hunger Games verse
Camila Nelson always knew that she could be reaped, that the odds might not always be in her favour,  But she was fast, she was stronger than she looked, and she had an instinct to survive that had gotten her this far.  So when her name is called, she knows that it could be a death sentence.  But she also knows that she could win.  Until little Will Byers is reaped as her district partner, and Camila knows that she’d lay down her life in a heartbeat to get him home
Fake Dating verse
Umbrella Academy verse
On the 12th hour of the first day of October 1989, 43 women around the world gave birth. This was unusual only in the fact that none of these women had been pregnant when the day first began.  Camila Nelson was one of those children, and one of the lucky ones to avoid Reginald Hargreeves’ clutches.  But luck was no power of hers, and Camila can’t outrun her destiny forever, not when the world is set to end within the week.
Tumblr media
𝔠𝔞𝔯𝔬𝔩𝔦𝔫𝔢 𝔰𝔬𝔪𝔢𝔯𝔰𝔢𝔱 ⊱⋆⊰ 𝔠𝔞𝔫𝔬𝔫
( as a completely original muse, I don’t have any set ships with her, but here on her wanted list I have a collection of fandoms, ships, and dream casts that I would love to play with for her, along with any original or fandom platonic dynamics )
Arranged Marriage verse ( modern )
Boarding School verse
Political verse
Fake Dating verse
Celebrity Verse
Reality TV verse
Gossip Girl vese
Gossip Girl Reboot verse
Caroline Somerset is really the only person at Constance Billard who rivals Julian Colloway in terms of notoriaty, instagram fame, and followers.  They always put their friendship first, but with the rise of Gossip Girl, keeping up appearances is what matters the most.  No matter the cost.
The Perfectionists verse
Wherein Caroline Hotchkiss has been keeping as many secrets as her twin brother, Nolan.  But when Nolan turns up dead one night, it’s all Caroline can do to try to keep both her secrets and her life
Harry Potter vese
Tumblr media
𝔣𝔦𝔫𝔩𝔢𝔶 𝔯𝔦𝔡𝔢𝔯 ⊱⋆⊰ 𝔠𝔞𝔫𝔬𝔫 ( coming soon )
( primarily shipped with Ben and Jay, happily open to shipping her with other characters, canon or oc, of any genders!  Some other potential ships could be Evie, Harry, or other original characters, but I am entirely flexible and willing to talk about other ideas )
Fake Dating verse
Anastasia AU
Many years ago, the princess Finley disappeared and was considered dead.  Years later, a clever conman meets a lovely blonde girl with no memories of her past and sees her as his opportunity for riches — he never expected her to actually be the long lost princess that he was teaching her to impersonate.
Pirate Finley
Instead of being found by Jay, a certain Harry Hook finds Finley Rider when she arrives on the island.  Brought into the pirate crew, Finley will stop at nothing to help get her friends off of the isle, even if it means returning to the life she’d sworn was only in her past.
Tumblr media
𝔤𝔦𝔫𝔫𝔶 𝔠𝔯𝔢𝔰𝔱𝔞 ⊱⋆⊰ 𝔠𝔞𝔫𝔬𝔫
( primarily shipped with finnick odair, happily open to shipping her with other characters, canon or oc, of any genders! )
Fake Dating verse
Boarding School verse
Instead of victor districts having training academies, the capitol takes all children from ages 12-18 and puts them into a single boarding school, where they can only be taught the knowledge that the capitol wants them to have, and once a year 24 of them are still reaped for the hunger games
Modern AU
Tumblr media
𝔥𝔬𝔩𝔩𝔦𝔰 𝔢𝔳𝔢𝔯𝔡𝔢𝔢𝔫 ⊱⋆⊰ 𝔠𝔞𝔫𝔬𝔫
( primarily shipped with finnick odair, happily open to shipping her with other characters, canon or oc, of any genders! )
Fake Dating verse
Boarding School verse
Instead of victor districts having training academies, the capitol takes all children from ages 12-18 and puts them into a single boarding school, where they can only be taught the knowledge that the capitol wants them to have, and once a year 24 of them are still reaped for the hunger games
Modern AU
Reality TV verse
With the sheer captivating drama of Katniss and Hollis’ back to back games, and the capitol’s love for the Everdeen sisters, Caesar Flickerman has the brilliant idea to start a reality show centred around the Capitol’s favourite family, as two of their beloved daughters learn to navigate the world of victors
Tumblr media
𝔧𝔲𝔩𝔦𝔢𝔱𝔱𝔞 𝔡𝔯𝔞𝔨𝔢 ⊱⋆⊰ 𝔠𝔞𝔫𝔬𝔫
( primarily shipped with jason todd, tentatively open to shipping her with other characters, canon or oc, of any genders!  Would also love to explore platonic / familial dynamics with damian wayne, tim drake, dick grayson, and any other gothamites )
Fake Dating verse
Boarding School verse
All of the batkids-and-co at boarding school
Marriage before romance
Knowing that Jason is one of Bruce’s children, and with Julietta carrying Damian, Ra’s and Talia want to give Damian as strong of a bloodline as possible, and arrange for Jason and Julietta to be wed in Nanda Parbat
Nanda Parbat verse
Dark verse, before Jason and Julietta get out of Nanda Parbat, either while Julietta is pregnant or when Damian is a baby
Jason remembers her
Julietta returns to Gotham in search of her son and her baby brother only to run into a pissed off Red Hood — only this time, he remembers her, and their past together
Julietta & Jason raising Damian verse
When Talia helps Julietta escape Nanda Parbat, she sends Damian along with her so that he’ll be safe from his grandfather — and just to be cautious, she pulls Jason out of his revenge mission in Gotham and tasks him with protecting his former family
Tumblr media
𝔨𝔞𝔱 𝔰𝔪𝔦𝔱𝔥 ⊱⋆⊰ 𝔠𝔞𝔫𝔬𝔫
( primarily shipped with dean winchester, open to shipping her with other characters, canon or oc, of any genders! )
Cross country road trip
Fake dating for a mission
A monster is attacking a couple’s retreat, a couple raises less suspicion than insisting on “just friends”, a husband and wife thinking of moving to town, there are a lot of times where a couple is less memorable than two friends asking too many questions
Princess of Hell
Where Kat can’t avoid her preordained destiny forever, becoming the host of Lilith and the little girl queen of hell
Spy / Secret Agent verse
Instead of hunting monsters, Kat hunts criminals and crime syndicates across the country
Criminal verse
Think Bonnie and Clyde, think Thelma and Louise, think criminals travelling around the country trying to stay one step ahead of the police
Role Reversal
Teen Wolf Verse
While tracking the monster of the week, Kat Smith finds herself in Beacon Hills, California.  She recognizes Chris Argent as an old friend of her father’s, but she never expected him to be practically a part of the local wolf pack.  ( potential for a Derek ship! )
Tumblr media
𝔨𝔶𝔩𝔞 𝔨𝔢𝔩𝔩𝔢𝔯 ⊱⋆⊰ 𝔠𝔞𝔫𝔬𝔫 ( coming soon )
( primarily shipped with Max Wolfe, happily open to shipping her with other characters, canon or oc, of any genders!  Would love to explore any slightly toxic dynamic, with max or another character, involving a lot of negging and a bit of classism, as well as anything involving the seven samurai as a group )
Fake Dating verse
Dating for the press / social media?  Dating for Julian’s brand?  Dating just because someone won’t take the hint?  
Vacation verse
Does the entire group go on a vacation together?  Does someone take ‘pity’ on Kyla and invite her on a two-person vacation?  Travel, unresolved feelings, very open to smut if that’s up your alley
Reality TV Verse
With so many rich, famous, and influential teens in one place, it was only a matter of time before a producer realized just how much money could be made off of a “behind the scenes” look at Instagram’s It Kids
Heathers Verse
Kyla Keller didn’t necessarily like her friends, but she definitely didn’t want them dead.  But when one person gets into her head that they can make Constance Billard a better place, Kyla soon finds herself in over her head.  ( Kyla as Veronica, Julian as Chandler, Monet as Duke, Luna as McNamara, JD is flexible! )

( primarily shipped with Jughead Jones, happily open to shipping her with other characters, canon or oc, of any genders!  Some other potential ships could be Sweet Pea, Toni, Fangs, or other original characters, but I am entirely flexible and willing to talk about other ideas, and I would love to explore platonic dynamics with other characters from Riverdale or other original Toledo characters )

Tumblr media
𝔬𝔭𝔥𝔢𝔩𝔦𝔞 𝔴𝔞𝔶𝔫𝔢 ⊱⋆⊰ 𝔠𝔞𝔫𝔬𝔫
( ophelia does not have a set ship, but I am very happily open to shipping her with other characters, canon or oc, of any genders, and I would also love to explore platonic relationships with Bruce, Alfred, or OCs, or any dynamic with other gothamites, whether from Gotham itself or elsewhere in the DC / Batman universes )
Ophelia in The Batman
exactly what it sounds like; Ophelia Wayne but instead of being the older sister to a traumatized 13 year old, she’s the older sister to a grown ass traumatized vigilante
Fake Dating verse
Victorian Era verse
In the late 1880s, Ophelia Wayne’s parents are murdered by none other than Jack the Ripper, and her younger brother becomes the new head of the family, all the while Ophelia has to keep him from hunting down their parents’ killer himself
Prohibition verse
Ophelia Wayne in the 1920s, where Gotham’s underground is firmly against the prohibition with none other than the Iceberg Lounge itself as the most infamous speakeasy around.  Ophelia herself has no objection to partaking in certain depravities, but her attention is torn as she struggles to keep her younger brother from getting himself killed

Modern AU
Arranged Marriage
Wherein Portia Featherington is a bit more clever than she seems, and manages to secure an incredibly desirable match for her eldest daughter
Fake Dating
When Peggy Featherington finds herself betrothed to a truly horrendous man, she only has one last idea for how to escape it — convince her mother that she is already courting with someone with a superior standing to her current fiancé.  The obvious suitor?  A man under as much pressure to wed as she, also looking for a way to postpone his fate
Marriage Of Honour
When Peggy Featherington is caught in a compromising position with a man of the ton, he has no choice but to propose to her to protect her honour.  But with only her mother’s word to go on, Lady Whistledown wonders if such a situation ever happened, or if Portia Featherington is simply more conniving than anyone thought
Tumblr media

Fake Dating verse
Runaway Verse
Instead of staying put in Hawkins, Rhiannon Ballard runs much farther from the lab; who knows who she might meet along the way, or what they might be running from
Umbrella Academy verse 1
Martin Brenner had a knack for finding miracle children, for taking them from their homes and raising them in his lab, a fucked up mockery of a family all being trained into the perfect weapons
Umbrella Academy verse 2
On the 12th hour of the first day of October 1989, 43 women around the world gave birth. This was unusual only in the fact that none of these women had been pregnant when the day first began.  Rhiannon Ballard, now Rhiannon Hargreeves, was among them.  Eventually she left, running away and never once looking back — until Reginald Hargreeves died.  But her homecoming is only made worse when her long deceased brother shows up, with warnings of an apocalypse only days away
Umbrella Academy verse 3
The one where Henry Creel was one of the original miracle children, and his daughter Rhiannon is taken to be raised as a new — and hopefully more successful — generation of the Umbrella Academy
Boarding School verse
Period verses

Sierra Nearing is nothing if not helpful, of course she would pretend to date a friend in need
Stranger Things verse
A few, not many but a few, of Martin Brenner’s experiments never made it to the lab, disappearing before he could get his hands on them. Such was the case for Sierra Nearing, waitress and aspiring detective. People tell her things, they always have, and when Will Byers goes missing one night, she can’t resist the gut instinct telling her that there’s something worth investigating ( can be played as young 20s or high school age )

Arranged Marriage / Marriage Before Romance
Still new to the Little Palace, people are already talking about Svetlana as the General’s Little Pet. Soon, Svetlana finds herself receiving a speech about morale, unity, and doing one’s duty, which turns out to be a flowery way of informing her that she is to wed the much older, still often frightening, General Kirrigan.

Despite her history with the General, Svetlana’s loyalty will always be to Alina above all, no matter who she has to protect her from.  Unfortunately, in the midst of her desperate attempts to protect Alina from the General, Svetlana can’t help but fall for the man

note1: deer-skull creature is actually called a duskwalker. i write these but they won’t be named after native spirits. note2: i will write serpent people; i just don’t feel comfy incorporating the word in respect to hindu culture.
note3: albeit not just labeled “dwarves,” these people exists? people with dwarvism are human, not not some separate race and don’t count as fantasy monsters. if you can’t understand that then you don’t need to be here.

Meet the creative team: “Spellstone”
Tumblr media
Are you a collectible card game (CCG) fan? If so, read on, because this week we spoke to the makers of Spellstone, a free-to-play (F2P) casual story-based fantasy card game that features vibrant, colourful, hand-drawn art on hundreds of beautiful cards that you can acquire and use in battle, both against the computer and other players!
TIGR: PABLO and DUSTIN are artists who have worked on Spellstone's art, helping create some of the iconic characters Spellstone fans know and love. We asked them how they came to work on the game, as well as what intrigued them about this project.
Tumblr media
DUSTIN: I was working as a contract artist when I was asked to create some sample cards for a potential CCG, which is something I'd always wanted to do. The samples I submitted eventually led to me getting a contract to create the initial art for Spellstone. After about four months, I was offered a full-time position. I had such a great experience working with the team that I jumped at the opportunity!
PABLO: Prior to starting work on Spellstone, I remember doing an art piece to test my skills. I greatly enjoyed that because I particularly liked this game's art style - which is actually similar to my own! There were still slight differences though, so I've had to adapt a little. Blending my own personal style into an existing one was challenging. But something that intrigued me about Spellstone was the variety of factions in the game. Each and every one opens up a big array of possibilities when it comes to creating a character. I felt my options were unlimited and I loved it!
TIGR: Spellstone features many different cards and characters. We wanted to know who conceptualises all this, and how much creative licence artists get when crafting a character. FERNANDO, currently the main artist for the game, gave us more insight.
Tumblr media
FERNANDO:  That Spellstone has such an immense variety of characters means it's a complete and delightful dish for artists. It's hugely gratifying to find such visual diversity with which to play with. You're completely free to create, as long as you respect the game's universe and visual language.
As for the process, the concept of what a card must look like and how it must be functional in terms of gameplay comes from the guys in the game design department. Very creative people... sorcerers maybe? I don't know. Haha!
From a brief but concise description they give me, I can get a sense of what kind of character and action they want to see in a card. Once I have all the information I need to start sketching, my favourite hour finally begins: creative hour!
If the card description involves an existing type of character, like a goblin, part of the fun has to do with the way you depict that character, situation, action and specific emotion. There's also some freedom to create from scratch if needed - that's exciting and challenging! Sometimes the ideas come from a mix of characters, and that's when the laboratory inside my mind starts working: I press a button and something cool, spooky or funny comes out - whatever the game requires. Other times, new concepts require that I look for approximate references of what's needed, so that serves as the starting point. No matter what, it's always a very enjoyable process. Sometimes we have to make corrections, that's true. But as with everything in life, this is necessary for things to work properly. You may have to redraw stuff, but finally the card is done - it works, it delivers and it entertains!
  TIGR: In Spellstone, cards can be upgraded from a single to a dual to a quad, and we really like that this sometimes tells a "mini story" of of sorts through the artwork. Some are funny (we just love Honeycomb Lobber!), some cute (Bomb Spirit is soooo adorable when he’s angry!), some uplifting (Aurora Shaver ranks among our favourites), and some, um, a bit disturbing, to be honest (Cleaverstorm Hunter, anyone?!)! And some are just sad - we can't help but feel sorry for the poor li'l forest furries that presumably got devoured by Alphamech Stalker! We asked the team how they came up with ideas for all these tiny narratives, and MELINDA, one of the game designers, told us more.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
MELINDA: When I was younger, there were a few creatures in video games that terrified me. One of those I remembered most was Medusa, an air jellyfish from Ecco: The Tides of Time. While traversing through a water pathway in the sky, Medusa would try to pick up Ecco the dolphin and fling him off the path. Tetraspout's concept came from that, and you can even see poor little dolphins getting swept up in its attack!
Tumblr media
  TIGR: We asked the team if there were any cards they particularly liked creating, or found challenging to conceptualise. IVÁN, a colorist who worked briefly on the game, chipped in, as did TONY and RHADA, two of Spellstone's game designers.
DUSTIN: I loved working on the goblin cards! You could get silly with them. Frogs were a lot of fun too - the variety of colours made them interesting. For me, the water cards were challenging but I grew to love working on them.
PABLO: My favourite characters are Goblins! You can play around with them, making them look funny even when the card is telling a dark story, like a massacre. All of the cards were challenging to create!
Tumblr media
IVÁN: I enjoyed working on Hedron The Critical Threat, Zyd The Unhinged, and some awesome Insect cards that have yet to be released (as of the time of this interview). I mostly liked them because of their cool concepts and Fernando's awesome sketches. Hedron in particular was a technical painting challenge, as it has textures, transparencies and glow!
Tumblr media
TONY: As something of an artist myself (/sarcasm), the card I am most proud of has to be Dinged Waptor. Or really any of the cards I did for the April Fool's event, which is about the only time the art team lets me anywhere near card art. :) For April Fool's, I decided it would be funny to try my hand at drawing some cards I felt players would enjoy. So the first year I drew some original characters that consisted of a few stick figures, a chicken, and a bomb. The response was good, so the following year I continued the tradition, eventually going through and tracing some famous cards like Winged Raptor. My one rule while making these cards was that I could not erase what I did!
Tumblr media
RHADA: We used to sell boxes that contained two new premium cards instead of one. We thought of making both cards in the box thematically linked. At the same time, while brainstorming concepts for dragons, I thought we could try to make cards that formed a bigger picture on the battlefield when placed consecutively, side by side. The initial idea was a serpent whose artwork overflowed into a second card, and after some iteration, we stumbled upon the idea of a dragon dance. The result was very cool!
Tumblr media
TIGR: With the Spellstone story campaign recently concluded, we asked what was next in store for Spellstone fans. Would there be anymore new characters and amazing art to look forward to?
TONY: Absolutely! While the main story has come to a close, we still look forward to adding new characters, cards, and art to the game that lets our artists have fun and shows off the world of Spellstone.
Tumblr media
TIGR: And finally, the most important question of all: would real-life Spellstone merchandise ever be made available for fans of the game? We really want a plushie of the adorable Bomb Spirit (complete with detachable bombs, perhaps?), as well as his angry counterpart, Firebomb Spirit! Also for Quetee Que and Adorabilis, please! And would there ever be any actual physical Spellstone cards produced for collectors?
Tumblr media
TONY: I would personally love to see real-life merchandise, but we currently do not have the means to take on such an endeavour. Maybe one day we can strike a partnership with a team that can make this happen!
We thank the Spellstone team for their time and all the wonderful art assets that accompany this interview! Check out the game here on Kongregate, on Steam, or on mobile - three different ways you can enjoy this fun, cheeky and adorable CCG!
P.S. We just had to include our favourite card: Darkwater Adonis - don’t be fooled by his charms!

The Conjuring 2: The Real Story of the Demonic ‘Nun’ Valak
https://ift.tt/3dP4LKr
The Conjuring 2 depicts the demon Valak as some horrific rendition of Cheech and Chong’s Sister Mary Elephant. But this Grand President of Hell is more cherub than dragon in the demonic hierarchy.
As the 62nd spirit in a 72-demon roster, Valak is no delinquent, although he’s been blamed for the two 1212 Children’s Crusades to the Holy Land, which resulted in thousands of teenagers from Germany and France being sold into slavery. Valak also retroactively gets the rap for the 1284 Pied Piper missing children incident in the German village of Hamelin.
The majority of what we know about Valak comes from the mid-17th century Goetic grimoire The Lesser Key of Solomon, a compilation of centuries’ worth of texts. Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers translated the works for the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, a late 18th-century magical order. They were published by the notorious English occultist Aleister Crowley as The Book of the Goetia of Solomon the King in the 20th century. Crowley added invocations, along with essays describing the rituals as psychological exploration. According to legend, the demons featured in the grimoire were the ones summoned by the King Solomon character in the Bible.
“The Sixty-second Spirit is Volac, or Valak, or Valu,” reads The Lesser Key of Solomon. “He is a President Mighty and Great, and appeareth like a Child with Angel’s Wings, riding on a Two-headed Dragon. His Office is to give True Answers of Hidden Treasures, and to tell where Serpents may be seen. The which he will bring unto the Exorciser without any Force or Strength being by him employed. He governeth 38 Legions of Spirits.”
Valak first appeared in written form in Pseudomonarchia Daemonum (The False Monarchy of Demons”). The text was an appendix in the 1577 grimoire De praestigiis daemonum (“On the Tricks of Demons”), by Johann Weyer, who himself was a Dutch physician, renowned occultist, and demonologist. That book listed 69 demons along with the proscribed rituals to conjure them.  The 72 Shemhamphorasch angelic names and seals came from the 1583 manuscript Le Livre des Esperitz (“The Office of Spirits”) by Blaise de Vigenère, and a now-lost work by Johannes Trithemius.
Valak has several names and titles, depending on the manuscripts and the translation. The spellings of the demon’s moniker range from Ualac to Valu, and Doolas to Volach in Munich Manual of Demonic Magic. A 1577 grimoire called the Book of Oberon lists a demon named Coolor, which is believed to be another name for Valak. This informed Reginald Scott’s influential 1584 grimoire, The Discoverie of Witchcraft.
Valak’s ranking is mainly listed as a “president,” but some manuscripts ranked him as a prince. Don’t let the titles fool you, every demon is called a duke, a king, or a prince. As a Lesser Key demon, Valak leads 38 legions of demons, though the number is also put at 30 and 27 legions of spirits, depending on the manuscript.  
The classical iconography of Valak is based on the ancient Greek deity Hermes, whose counterpart in the Roman Mythology was Mercury. Hermes is often depicted as wielding a staff called the caduceus, which is made up of two entwined serpents. The grimoires repurpose that into the two-headed dragon. The two-headed Dragon also has Hindu connotations because it symbolically refers to the arousal of Kundalini, represented by the fire snake. This is believed to be the origin of Valak’s association with snakes.
Humans have six categories for demons, according to Weyer’s Pseudomonarchia Daemonum: Empyreal, Aerial, Subterranean, Aqueous, Terrene, and Lucifugi, which means nocturnal. Angels reportedly recognize only two categories: Apokomistai, which are older, and Nekudaimones, which are younger and weaker. In order to take human form, a Nekudaimone has to possess a human or animal. An Apokomistai can take any form. Valak is an Apokomistai. When summoned, he reputedly appears as a child who uses innocence to lure victims to bad ends. This reputation led to the association with the Children’s Crusades, and the 130 children of Hamlin who went missing on June 26, 1248, even though there were no reports of demons at the time.
Investigators also found no demonic activity at the heart of the events behind The Conjuring 2. Instead they blamed the Enfield Poltergeist, according to the book This House is Haunted by Guy Lyon Playfair. The famous paranormal experts Ed and Lorraine Warren showed up unannounced in the British countryside and were dismissed from the property. They were there for a matter of minutes. That wasn’t the only disparity.
Valak is a male Demon and does not manifest in any female form. In full evocation, he anecdotally appears as a very pale man with black hair and dark eyes. There is no lore that has ever portrayed Valak as a nun. Director James Wan got the Nun character from a vision Lorraine Warren, played by Vera Farmiga in The Conjuring films, claimed she saw of a hooded entity in a swirling tornado vortex. Wan initially loved the CGI possibilities, but ultimately scaled it down to holy iconography. The Nun wasn’t even added to The Conjuring 2 until reshoots, Wan told Gizmodo. The Nun is played by Bonnie Aarons, who also donned the habit in Annabelle: Creation.
In The Conjuring 2, the Nun seems to be stalking Lorraine Warren. Not only does she see the Nun at the Amityville house, and in Enfield, England, but the demon also appeared at the Warren’s home before the investigations. While some viewers may see this as foreshadowing, the character was also angling for a solo feature.
Unlike The Conjuring films, The Nun (2018) was not inspired by a true story but by the 1986 movie The Name of the Rose, based on the book of the same name by Italian author Umberto Eco. That film starred Sean Connery as Friar William of Baskerville. Christian Slater played his apprentice. They investigate the mysterious death of a famous monk who lived in Benedictine abbey in Northern Italy. The monk was found dead in a vat of pig blood and the villagers blame the Devil. Taking a cue from Van Halen, The Nun runs with it.
Valak is seen as something more than a possessive force. Possessions are rare, and often part of a bargaining process. Believers might call it “the fine print.”

The Conjuring Timeline Explained: From The Nun to Annabelle Comes Home
By Daniel Kurland
Valak is a heavily petitioned demon. He is used for curse works like revenge but is also thought to help find money through random events. He is who you call on when you want a raise or promotion, an inheritance, or before financial negotiations. Valak doesn’t work for free, however, and “Demonic Magick” demands certain sacrifices. Luckily, Valak is partial to licorice, as well as gin, knives, coins, and public proclamations in his name. He does not respond to sexual offerings or blood. Summoning Solomonic spirits is traditionally done through ceremonial magic.
Old grimoires are written from a Christian point of view, and the rituals are invocations. In the Middle East, Valak is a Djinni, known to us in the west as genies. Like Aladdin! The djinn are supernatural creatures in early Arabian mythology and theology during the Pre-Islamic period. The djinn were not immortal but were feared because they brought disease and madness. The 72 spirits represent 72 psychological pathologies of the unconscious mind. Djinn are summoned through evocation, allowing the Djinn to be redeemed.
According to an adept practitioner we spoke with, who declined to be named, organized religions demonize Valak and other Lesser Demons, in part, because they “imparted wisdom via the use of astrology. Which is an excellent tool that has ancient roots in all of mankind. It enlightens and empowers people which is exactly what organized religion wants to suppress.” 
But before you go rubbing any lamps with licorice sticks, the unnamed Goetic warns, “Wisdom is imparted, but not without a price. You have to really be empowered and very stable and sure of yourself if you want to work with them versus letting them control or overpower you. They do have a maleficent nature; however, without darkness light doesn’t exist either.”
The Conjuring 2’s Valak is a fun film creation. You don’t have to be Catholic to be scared of nuns. Cherubs, not so much. Even on a dragon with two heads, the image is far too accessible to convey what Wan needed. There are so many more horrid descriptions of angels and demons found in religious texts than Valak. But be assured, you never want to take candy from this baby.
