Hello! Welcome to my fan blog!

I'll be using this blog to share AUs and fanfics about, and art and OCs related to Cult of the Lamb, both my own and those belonging to others. I'll also be sharing my opinions and theories about COTL characters, some of which may be rants, others may be analyses.

So I've been playing Cult of the Lamb for the first time

I wasn't planning on interacting with the fandom but someone recommended a fic to me- The Rehabilitation of Death by @bamsara and it has me by the throat

[nufflesdoodles]

Schools out and funnnns out ✨✨

I CAN TACKLE THE ART BACKLOG NOW

Suggestive Narilamb doodles that I cannot take seriously

[acis-arts]

Something that I always found interesting in this fandom is that many people interpreted the witnesses to be similar to the disciples of the Bishops.

But when you talk with Plimbo for the first time, he tells you this:

The way I understand this, is that the witnesses are creatures that come from beyond the island. The Bishops used to have control over the waterways and made sure that these beasts won't cross any lines, until the Lamb kills them of course.

After that, nothing stops the witnesses from entering the island, which is why they only appear after a Bishop dies. (not sure if them taking the Bishops place has any lore significance or if it's just for the game design)

I kind of have the headcanon that the witnesses are transformed/mutated mortals like the Bishops Disciples, but with the difference that they come from the mainland to stalk the waterways and the island. When they turn into the Lambs Followers, they barely have any memories of their old life left though.

In my old drawings and writing of the witnesses, I really liked having them trying to figure out where they are from and what their purpose was. Unless there is official lore they may never know though.

With this, I'm not trying to say that any other interpretations are wrong, because everyone can imagine those characters whatever way they want. I just kinda wanted to write about how I understood it from the game and what headcanon it gave me.

I was at con this weekend and I'm stupid proud of my Narinder cosplay. Like I designed and made his robes in 2 months!!! It turned out super slick!

PSA

Just a heads up, there are bots going around on AO3 accusing people of using AI. Considering the timing, this is likely AI bros' retaliation for AO3 users calling them out for scraping their work. Examples of what you might be sent:

[lottiesnotebook]

This happened to me on Monday! Just to note, they seem to be using the usernames of real AO3/Tumblr users, which is creepy and upsetting, and also a weird way to sow discord in our communities.

[aeonchangeling]

As a fanfic writer, this makes me sick.

[waywardstraysau]

Letting me readers know about this nonsense. Don't bother with engaging if you get something like this, do as the OP says and continue to write.

Sharing this here as a heads up.

Cult of the Lamb - Head Trauma

Been influenced quite a bit with how comics here on tumblr are formatted, so I've been experimenting lately with how I possibly want to upload sketches and stuff in the future--these little comics were mostly experiments on how high or low effort I would like to go.

In other news, I've finished this game twice now. I'm officially a follower and I've got ideas spinning in my head. This bodes poorly for me.

[wolfsteax]

.fear not.

[wolfsteax]

a little fun fact: this is based on a visceral nightmare I had last night where Narinder was extremely realistic and was trying to kill me repeatedly. I finally dream of my pookie chasing me and all I got was a vivid horror experience.
