Make a jean-chain thing with all of the divine warrior symbols! Had trouble getting a decent picture of the chain as a whole but got alright ones of the individual symbols.

Thought you all would enjoy it, seeing as the pendants I've shown in previous posts did pretty well.

Symbols are made after this image (not mine) which depicts the symbols.

Edit: Since there was an ask about it, yes, I will be giving credit to whoever drew the symbols I referenced. Problem is, I don't have the info of the original artist so until I find it or someone is able to let me know who the artist is, I can't tag them or give other information. An edit will be made whenever I get that information.

Honestly the greatest tragedy for me from season 3 of mcd being canceled was not getting to see the rest of the shadow knight rebellion storyline.

Laurance, after seemingly resigning himself to his nature at the end of s2, is back swinging and with a whole group behind him. It only makes sense; he was Head Guard of Meteli after all.

Zenix has shakily settled himself into a role of right-hand man and has reigned himself in compared to when we last heard of him.

How did Zenix meet Laurance? Does he know who is? What he meant to the man who basically raised him? Does Laurance know what Zenix meant to his brother in arms?

Did Laurance ever wonder about Aphmau's unborn child? Did he ridicule himself for "pretending" to care after lashing out at her? Does he see the blazing fire and think of his beloved sister's hair?

What kind of Shadow Knights chose to stand behind them? What's their game plan in all this- To kill Shad? What happens after, if they can even do it? Have they even thought about it?

So many damn questions and we'll never know. Man 🐴

regarding my last reblog i wanted to make a longer post about how cool shadow knights actually are conceptually (as well as their dichotomy with guards in parallel to shad and irene as institutions).

especially thinking about how shadow knights are essentially a creation of spite on shad's behalf. irene is the one who instated lordship as the main form of government, and as such lords and their guards have a very significant relationship. it's even said early on that a "light" (presumably symbolic of irene's blessing/will) protects the bond between a lord and their guard(s).

that's what makes shadow knights so insidious. while not all shadow knights are deceased guards, many of them are, and in fact many of them died specifically to protect their lord/while enacting their lord's will. shad twists that devotion into bloodlust, ensuring that every shadow knight that died in this way must kill their lord in order to reach their full potential. a guard becoming a shadow knight is a severing of the light that supposedly protects the bond of guard and lord, a taunt by shad that spits on irene's sanctions and seeks to torch everything she built in her lifetime.

even the etymology of the two titles, "guard" and "knight", show these differences. a guard feels personal, somebody who has devoted themselves to protecting something. "guard" is both a noun and a verb, implying willful action on behalf of the one who guards. on the other hand, "knight" is a formal title. a knight, first and foremost, represents the king they serve, and they are loyal to him alone. knights wield swords and wear heavy plated armour and don't ask questions. and while guards in ru'ann do the same, they are rarely so rigidly uniformed and single minded in their service. a guard is a valued pillar of their community, a knight is a disposable piece on a chess board.

#and also the one place we *do* see guards behaving like knights in this example is o'khassian guards #who work under a lord who seeks to reinstate monarchy #and by extension; knighthood #aphverse #shadow knights #shad the destroyer #irene the matron #ru'ann #aphmau #aphblr #minecraft diaries #mcd #shad #irene #the world of mcd

I have all the Divine Warriors deaths in mind. I'll eventually draw somethings about them but here you go.

Shad: Never truly died, as we know. Which is funny. God of death yet she continuously tries to live. He wears clothes not meant to be buried in a casket. But ones made to attend the funeral because they are alive. Even after becoming who he is today, her "armour", although reaks death. Shows how he will kill to live.

Irene: She never really died, just "disappeared." (or something I haven't thought that far). Much like Shad but different. God of life yet she tries every waking second to die. All those that she has loved, have been met with a tragic end. Her clothes resemble that of the body laying in the casket. Even in her new form she can't help but wonder when her death would come.

Menphia: She died while saving the one she loved. Enki. In the fierce fight with Shad she was the first to go. The one to make the sacrifice that saved centuries of people. Menphia wasn't one to make sacrifices, she was a selfish woman. Yet, Enki and Irene were important to her.

Enki: He set fire to himself inside his library. It was suicide. He took all the knowledge with him. No one knows why, as they never found his journal.

Kul'zak: He died doing what he loves best. Getting drunk and dancing on a ship. He death was peaceful, and calm. Mature if you will. Much like himself.

Esmund: He was mauled to death. Perhaps it was Xaiver, the boy he helped build into a man. Xaiver was the first Shadow Knight. But who knows. It was a gruesome sight. Despite Esmund's eagerness to protect those. He seemed to have failed at protecting himself.

Alright sooo, i did a little redesign work or did alittle touch ups on each symbols of each divine god for Misteria about a few weeks ago...

i double checked at least a few times to be extra sure the symbols of each god at least looked like SOMETHING and so i came up with this!

kul'zak's is a tree (to represent him being the god of destruction and karma)

menphia's is a firey bolt (to represent her being the god of war and hope)

shad's looks like a torn apart heart (to represent him being the god of death and reanimation)

esmund's is a shield (to represent him being the god of protection and judgement)

enki's is shears (to represent him being the god of time and the space)

and

irenes is a sort of plant like it always has been, basically unchanged honestly (but its to represent her being the god of life)

also if you want to compare these with the og designs look no further! here they are for your eyes....

Ask box is always open for questions on Misteria/my MCD+Mysteeet rewrite!

I have gotten inspired from my most recent ask, about my opinions on the DW. This time, I am going to talk about how I believe they are worshiped by the people, and how they affected the present world. Not going by village, just the general most common ways they are worshipped.

--

Irene: Much like how hospitals have the red cross symbolizing medicine and hospitals, Irene's symbol is that. Wherever a doctor and where a hospital is, is the Irene symbol. The matron symbolizes healing due to her many healing abilities, and so that translated over to hospitals and doctors when the idea of medicinal herbs and such were made popularized. Churches are typically where she is worshipped, sermons and days specified when they will join together and pray. The believers also believe that all plant life should be looked after and taken care of, destroyed only if necessary. Many of the bigger villages have green houses filled with medicinal herbs and native flowers that are religiously taken care of. However, there is a dark side. Bandits, kidnappers, just evil doers in general, use the promise of prosperity the name of Irene brings, to bring down and dangers unto others. There were even historically recorded times of people sacrificing others in the name of prosperity and good health.

Enki: Enki was the one who coined the idea of recording history and knowledge within books, less in murels. He was also someone that pushed education buildings and the idea that everyone should get the chance to learn, even if societies at the time did not want that to happen. He was also the cause of the publishing of the first maps to be made of the entire world and the nations. There is one major university using his symbol as the colleges symbol, even if that is not historically accurate. However, most books were destroyed in book burnings that he had created, ones not stored in a major library that is still hidden to this day. He is worshiped by scholars and sailors alike, though there is not one set place people worship him. Though the library could count.

Kul'Zak: Kul'Zaks symbol is used at camps and hotels people own in order to convey the idea that this is where wanderers and travellers can stay. He also had helped Enki publish the maps, though he was the one who had created them. He is not necessarily worshiped, but he has a small mantra that goes around camps that adventures learn, one that is said to bring safety and protection to those going between cities and nations.

Esmund: Esmund is the symbol of the guards order and is used at the guard training facilities around the different nations. He is the symbol of protection and people use his plus Irene's when them or a loved one is sick or injured. Irenes for health and healing, and Esmunds used for the protection of the person. It is also a symbol used alongside head guards, next to the cities symbol. It is only used by the head guards of said village, since they are the main protectors. It is rumored that one can learn the skin hardening ability he has, but it had only been done once, and it was an old man close to death.

Shad: Before he became the destroyer, he was the fighter. Unlike the idea of the protector, he was always on the front lines. He worked with blacksmiths to make different types of weapons that are used today, some were even the basis of better weapons made at later dates. He was worshiped among brash men who only want to become fighters within the wars, but he had the respect of weapon makers. When he became the destroyer, he was worshiped by small cult like villages, ones who praised him to the brashness he had faced as well. They do not believe in the other DWs, and they believe that Shad is the one and only being, the one true DW. Whenever someone was close to death, they were killed to be sacrificed to the Shadow Lord. When young promising fighters come along, they are sacrificed to Shad. Thus, the Shadow Knights began.

Menphia: She is actually the most less known DW, one who is not widely known. Only the oldest witches (and that's few) know of her and worship her. Other than that, there is folklore surrounding her. She would stay in the back lines and rain fire or ice balls from the sky to hit enemies in the lines. Though, that story became less of her and more of a ghost story that surrounds battle fields. That if the battle is gruesome enough, the sky would rain fireballs to torch those who dare make such a gruesome display on nature. Though that type of story is common within Irene believers. She was fine with being the most less known DW, as she did not want fame or worship.

YIPPEE!!!!!! I hope you like and pls expand on your own ideas as well :3

Another thing to help me characterize my Divine Warriors - Vices

Shad: Bloodshed - After becoming the Destroyer he was always hungry. He craved to consume and destroy everything in his path, whether it be people, animals, or towns.

Irene: Attention - While attention in itself isn't bad, too much of it can be bad. Irene was subscribed to "Any attention is good attention" and was how she became the most worshipped god. She encouraged it so more people would come to her for help. She was a fixer.

Enki: Power - The man was a hoarder of knowledge, and in this world, the quote "knowledge is power" is directly inspired by Enki. She was the Keeper, and they constantly wanted more.

Menphia: Booze - She was the fury, the one who constantly got into fights. The definition of a warrior, but as a warrior, she often killed people in her bouts of fury that she never meant to. This led to her taking moments to... calm her mind with a stiff drink.

Esmund: People - This man was a self-sacrificing maniac. He desperately wanted people to love him and, more specifically, Irene to love him. He wanted to wrap everyone in his big strong arms so no one would ever be unsafe again.

Kul'Zak: Smoking - After becoming immortal against his will, he took up the habit so he could at least feel like death. After all, a smoked fish is a dead fish.

Yknow I wish they played with Aphmau's depression more in mcd

After Aaron died, she almost completely shut down, understandably so. But after like a few episodes, she was kinda back to normal (still very much grieving tho) and I think that sucks.

Show me a broken lord that has lost someone so dear to them. For the first time, there is no "rescue", no "we'll find a way." He is dead and gone, and she couldn't stop it.

Show me an empty warrior who can't enjoy the peaceful present because he's not there. Garroth is, and he is a constant reminder of what happened. It's not his fault, no, but she can't bear to look at him and see someone else.

Show me Irene, who once again has gone numb. But this time, her lord of shadows was not unfairly persecuted. He surrendered himself, and somehow, that's worse.

But Aphmau is not Irene. And this time, she can pick herself back up. Little by little, piece by piece.
