Siktempora, Love
Tumblr media
Image by Brian Despain, © Paizo Publishing. Accessed on Archives of Nethys here
[The last of the siktemporas, and the last monster I had in reserve before shit started really going down at work in the last couple of weeks. I've been so busy playing "Guess Which Students Are Nazis" that I haven't gotten a lot of writing done. So I'm hoping for another new monster by Friday, but I make no guarantees.]
Siktempora, Love CR 16 NG Outsider (extraplanar) This creature appears to be two smallish humanoid fused together, with three legs, two arms and two heads. Its heads are featureless except for a hint of blush about the cheeks. The creature wears fine clothing, albeit in an exotic style, and carries a crossbow in each hand.
Love siktemporas are among the most benevolent of this class of temporal outsiders. They are formed by the impressions of great love that imprints on the fabric of the Dimension of Time. Romantic love is usually the catalyst of a love siktempora’s creation, but not exclusively. They are powerful combatants, capable of starting or ending wars, but are compassionate and fight to protect rather than out of aggression. They are also excellent diplomats and counselors, although they have to use their telepathy to communicate rather than speak.
A love siktempora can create crossbow-like structures at will and fire bolts of emotional energy. Those struck by a love siktempora’s emotional bolt, or who raise a hand to strike the creature, are temporarily overwhelmed by a feeling of intense love and peace. Oftentimes, this emotional cue is enough to start negotiations–a common tactic of a love siktempora is to fire its bolts into multiple enemies at once, and then propose an end to hostilities while its foes are still reeling. If negotiations fail, however, a love siktempora will not hesitate to kill to protect what they love. Love siktemporas are capable of enhancing their allies with telepathic music, but cannot themselves benefit from such abilities. Love siktemporas’ abilities do not affect other siktemporas, as the whole lineage is immune to mind-influencing effects, and love siktemporas may seek allies among mortals or celestials if they find themselves in conflict with crueler siktemporas. 
Love Siktempora            CR 16 XP 76,800 NG Medium outsider (extraplanar, good, siktempora) Init +15; Senses darkvision 60 ft., Perception +33
Defense AC 32, touch 26, flat-footed 22 (+9 Dex, +1 dodge, +6 insight, +6 natural) hp 230 (20d10+120); fast healing 20 Fort +13, Ref +19, Will +18 DR 15/evil or orichalcum; Immune disease, mind influencing effects, pain, poison Defensive Abilities deflect aggression (6/day), temporal sense

(cannot speak) SQ bardic performance (43 rounds/day, swift action, inspire competence +4, inspire courage +3, inspire greatness, inspire heroics),telepathic singer
Ecology Environment any land or underground (Dimension of Time) Organization solitary or fellowship (2-5) Treasure incidental 
Special Abilities Bardic Performance (Su) A love siktempora can use some bardic performances as a 16th level bard. Its rounds of use per day are as if it were a 16th level bard. A love skitempora cannot use bardic performances except those listed, such as countersong or distraction, unless it takes levels in the bard class. Burst of Uncanny Speed (Su) On the first round of combat, a love siktempora moves as if it were affected by a haste spell. It can use Whirlwind Attack on this first round of combat as a standard action, making one melee attack at its highest base attack bonus against each opponent within reach. Deflect Aggression (Su) As an immediate action when it is the target of any attack, a love siktempora can grant itself a +2 deflection bonus to AC and take 15 less damage from the attack if it does hit. The creature whose attack triggered this ability is affected by the love siktempora’s heartsong ability. A love siktempora can use this ability a number of times per day equal to its Wisdom modifier (6/day for the average specimen). Emotional Bolt (Su) A love siktempora can fire two emotional bolts as an attack action, and four as a full attack action. This does not provoke an attack of opportunity. Treat these as ranged attacks made with a projectile weapon with a range increment of 80 feet. A creature struck by an emotional bolt takes 2d10 points of piercing damage plus the siktempora’s Charisma modifier, and must save against the siktempora’s heartsong. Heartsong (Su) A creature struck by a love siktempora’s emotional bolt, or that triggers its deflect aggression ability, must succeed a DC 27 Will save or be dazed for one round. A creature affected, whether it succeeds or fails the saving throw, is immune to the heartsong of that siktempora until the end of its next turn. This is a mind-influencing emotion effect. The save DC is Charisma based, and includes a -2 racial penalty. Telepathic Singer (Ex) A love siktempora can use its bardic music abilities telepathically. Creatures must have an Intelligence score of 3 or higher to receive a benefit from the love siktempora’s bardic music.  Temporal Jaunt (Sp) As a standard action, a love siktempora can vanish into the time stream, reappearing in another location. This ability functions as dimension door (so a typical love siktempora can jaunt up to 1040 feet), but the siktempora can take other actions that round after reappearing, and the destination must be in a location the siktempora could reach normally by walking. Temporal jaunts are not true teleportation—the siktempora simply travels to a later point in the time stream—so the ability can be used in areas that bar teleportation effects; however, in such areas a siktempora can travel only a distance equal to its speed. Temporal Sense (Ex) A siktempora can sense all the possible futures of the coming seconds. This grants it an insight bonus on its Initiative checks and to its Armor Class equal to its Wisdom bonus (+6 for a typical love siktempora).

There's no better joy in this world than watching someone collapse to their own self when you agree with them:
You know witchcraft is probably the placebo, right?
Me - yeah
Them expecting a fight - wait, why do you practice it then?
I don't know whether I'm placeboing myself a new life or whether I'm manipulating the forces of change in the universe but either way, I'm becoming a better version of myself and overcoming my enemies, my own issues and living well. Is that not what the end game is?

Spiritual Hygiene
Spiritual hygiene is basically keeping yourself, cleansed, protected and grounded spiritually. People tend to try and do this through daily practices, which for some can be hard to upkeep. As someone with depression and can be lazy at times- sticking to routines can be difficult for me. So here’s some “basics” you can try to slowly add to your day to day that will give you a regular spiritual hygiene routine.
Cleanse yourself when you shower: This can be as simple as asking the water to cleanse you while you shower. Sometimes showering can be hard- for times like this i recommend a cleansing spray. Quick and fairly low spoons. But if you want to put more energy into this step you can enchant your soap/body wash for cleansing, hang eucalyptus above your shower and ask it to cleanse you, make a shower sachet, use spellcrafted oils for cleansing, ect.
Enchant your jewelry and/or skincare for protection: Obviously this one is for when you feel up to doing an actual spell. But, once its done you can just put your jewelry or skincare on for the day and be good to go. Every once in awhile take a moment to check in with your jewelry/items and see if it needs to be cleansed (or make a jewelry cleansing bowl) or needs to be re-enchanted.
Ground yourself when you wake up: once you wake up take even a minute to ground and center yourself. This works both if youre a person like myself who needs to lay in bed for a few minutes before getting up, or if youre a crazy person whos ready to go right away.
Even doing these three things through the week will help build you a strong spiritual hygiene routine and daily practice. Remember to take your time when building a daily practice, and forgive yourself if it’s not done everyday. ✨🫶🏻

When fighting a wizard, always use a gun. Because bullets, it turns out, are faster than the speed of Latin.

What it's like trying to learn about the Occult
Trying to learn more about the occult is so intimidating. I am trying to gather as much knowledge as I can, but there is so much reading material. Like for most other western religions it's "𝘏𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬. 𝘙𝘦𝘢𝘥 𝘪𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯 𝘪𝘵𝘴 𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴." But for the occult it's "𝘏𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘪𝘵 𝘰𝘭𝘥 𝘭𝘪𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘳𝘺. 𝘔𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘴 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘱𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘯 𝘰𝘶𝘵. 𝘈𝘭𝘭 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘥𝘪𝘤𝘵 𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳. 𝘚𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘰𝘱𝘶𝘭𝘢𝘳 𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘯 𝘣𝘺 𝘣𝘪𝘨𝘰𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘭𝘶𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘴. 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘮𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘭𝘥. 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘪𝘣𝘳𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘢𝘯𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘵 𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳."

Some witches want to be whimsical and heal people and be creative with good spells.
Some witches want to be haunting and dark and obscure and be ready to strike when evil is afoot.
Some witches are both, some witches are none. Some witches want power, some others want balance.
You are valid in your craft.

Protection Oil
I recently started up my practice again and the first thing I made was a protection candle and some oils. I haven't shared any witchy things in a while so here is how I make protection oil.
You can use any oil, I prefer to use olive oil. I also put red pepper and a rose thorn in there because I like them. I would also have added egg shell powder but I didn't have any. You can tailor this to what ever you have one hand. The world is your oyster do whatever the fuck you want. You can wear this oil, lock mirrors, windows, add to spells, ect... Personally I like to put it on before I do spell work. Stay protected witches !
Olive Oil
Salt - purification, cleansing
Sage - protection, hex breaking
Red pepper - warding, spell amplification
Parsley - protection, purification
Thyme - protection
Black salt - protection, dispel's negative energy
Rose thorn - repellent for negative energy, baneful protection
Tigers' eye - protection
A petition with intentions
Tumblr media
Edit :
I forgot to add this the first time.
Do not put fresh herbs or shit that has water in it into your carrier oil. It can create botulism. Make sure everything you add is dried.
