#dreams of the deep | lore

Breakdown of the Old Gods / Vessels and just how that all works since theyve been more active recently.

Cthulhu: Known as The Priest amongst the gods and Vessels, is technically the head of them all, the one that called them all awake and will, in the new era, lead both mortals and gods. He can go into the void, and, recieve the visions of past, present, future. Adonis' job was to sort through the visions to determine what the void (and the god) has told them. his domain is the water, the deep sea and the creatures that dwell within them.

Hastur: Known as the King in Yellow, The Great Prince of the Old Ones and The Unspeakable one, often takes the form of a golden chinese dragon. His Vessel is Gabriel. King of the air and clouds (and a bit of the lightening too) Hastur is the brother of Cthulhu. one of the more violent vessels for the more violent host.

Daoloth: The Veil Render, the one who can see multiple realms within his eyes, life and death, the keeper of knowledge from the other side. Vessel is Nix, who is the full blooded brother of Adonis. It is said that to see the true form of the god would be enough to drive men to madness for eternity. Daoloth's true form is a Manticcore, and while the form itself does not cause madness, the poison from the tail or fangs is painful enough to drive men mad.

Ithaqua: The Death Walker, The Father of Windigos. vessel is Sterling. one of the more violent vessel / god duos, they are tasked with the defense and the be the terror, the hand that strikes fear and respect into the world once more. as the father of windigos, consuming humans is part of the vessel contract, but, due to Sterling's brain and spirit nearly shattering the first time he couldn't stop himself from devouring another human, the god and him struck a deal. hearts, and hearts only. human or animal, though human gave him more stamina and strength.

Nyarlathotep: The crawling Chaos, The Dark Demon. His Vessel is Cyrus. son of Azathoth, it is his job to carry out the god's orders swiftly. He is the head general and the main force to be reckoned with as the gods awaken and congregate as The Priest calls them awake.

Azathoth: only a half functioning god, as his vessel accidentally stumbled into becoming one. and, has a blood contract that lasts 10 years. he (and Jackson Maddox, his vessel) is written on my main blog, as he is seperated from the rest.

The gods themselves are incredibly hard to kill, and once their vessels agree to it, they also become incredibly hard to kill, though not impossible. each god has a specific weapon forged by men ages ago, hidden across the world away from the cult, in case humanity ever needed to fight them back. each weapon, if used in a fatal blow, will kill both host and vessel. without that weapon however, the god cannot be killed. there are, at the moment, four of these weapons located. and are all in the possession of the Barinov Cult, kept safe with Nikita's children. The weapons are as follows: Silvertongue the folly of Ithaqua, Wavebreecher the folly of Cthulhu, Lightbringer the folly of Hastur, and Peacekeeper the folly of Nyarlathotep.

the vessels however, can in fact be exorcised, which will tear the god from the vessel's soul, killing the vessel in the process. this, is one of the most excruciating things that can be done to a vessel, as their own soul is shredded in the process.

Barinov's cult, has learned how to forge weapons that can more readily hurt and incapacitate those that have been embued with eldritch power, and possessed, though cannot kill a possessed.

@uxwantedheirs asked: ❛ I want to hear you. Don’t hold back. ❜ (Micah- someone take this stalker)

Nix let out a whimper at the request, releasing lower lip that had been held by his teeth,bite mark evident on them as a slight amount of blood touched his tongue. He hadnt realized he'd kept himself quiet this way, he had just... done it.

Fuck, it felt good. All of it. He did his best not to squirm from the way body came alight, touches almost driving feral, "yes, Micah. Fuck, that feels good."

Honest & Raw USFW Prompts @eldritchtwined asked: You feel so good. I am going to lose my mind - Sterling to Luca

#sterling | threads #uxwantedheirs #starving wolves outside are howling and i join them in their prayer | usfw

Sterling had never thought allowing himself to be this vulnerable to someone else could be this good. To be... everything he needed or wanted. And yet, underneath this man, body sung with pleasure he'd never thought to have experienced. It wasn't just physical, there was some part of him that craved this in more than that way.

Lips met his own, the small amount of space between them for words felt too much even in the short amount of time they'd parted, arms wound their way around Luca's neck, fingers running through hair. There was time for the slow and sweet taking, the type to draw out the gentler sides of them both, with care and adoration ever so evident within it. Now however, was the time for the unrelenting drive, the heat that threatened to burn if not released between them. And he loved it. Each drive into him, deep and unrelenting, sent waves of pleasure through him, it was intense and rough and very much needed.

Sounds from him were swallowed in the kiss shared between them, allowing himself to slip into the heated pleasure haze that would leave him desperate and wanting for this man only.

Luca would not give him even the illusion of grace or leeway. Sterling had dared to believe him so easily outdone that he wouldn't catch him. That very idea that he could escape Luca's grasp erased any bit of grace he may have had. Luca's arm pressed into his throat with such force that action alone held him between wall and body. If this pushed him to unconsciousness then so be it. He was lucky Luca didn't outright smash his skull into the surface behind him.

Words spat at his feet and Luca's face darkened entirely. Warmth and any trace of openness evaporated in an instant. He stepped forward further crowding his space until all that was around Sterling was Luca himself. "As far as you should be concerned I'm not of this Earth." He debated moving even closer but the look in Sterling's eyes told him that would be a step too far, too into his territory that would escalate this to a point Luca had no interest in. "Each breath you take is because I have allowed it. Every scrap of freedom and independence lies entirely within my hands. You dare call that Earthly?" Eyes dragged over his form, scrutinizing him heavily before returning to face. "The way it stands presently I am your very world, each moment of continued existence is because of me. What is that but a God? And you don't get to decide if you belong to a God. You just do."

This he was more familiar with. the rough and violent means to an end, he undestood that, thrived in it, or so he thought he did. there had never been gentleness within the Cult, the Hounds were a good example of that. while he and Adonis had gotten slightly off the hook because they were known vessels chosen and marked already, the Cult itself was often a violent bloody thing, especially as time neared for them to awaken. the shift was sudden in his face, but, the mask finally had dropped, and he saw exactly who he was dealing with now.

Sterling gave a choked laugh at the mention of Luca being his god. he had no idea what had been in his veins, the power surging beneath his fingertips, and he wanted to talk about playing god? he leaned against the press of arm, and had it been a blade rather than an appendage, he would have surely been bleeding from the action, "a god? I've met a few, and they are far more impressive. where do you think those runes came from, hm? wasn't your name that was etched into me. and when he wakes? I will personally tear your chest open, pull your still beating heart out of it, and feed it to him, and I hope you'll be awake long enough to see it happen."

Sterling sweetie, you cannot threaten to rip a man's heart out while it's still beating and devour it in front of his dying frame. you cant, im veto ing that too.

Captured & Stockholm Syndrome Starters @eldritchtwined asked: “Why are you doing this?” - Sterling to Luca

Gaze was heavy as he sat across from him. He debated answering him at all. Luca suspected the answer wouldn't matter either way and it's not exactly like he could demand it out of him. This question was one he was all too familiar with. He'd learned that they rarely want the actual answer. They just want to hear that this is temporary, that maybe he'll let them out if they say the right things.

Sterling, he suspected, did hold a real spark of curiosity for the violent changing of his circumstances. He could give the standard answer that he simply could, because it was his will, which would be true. At least it was partially true. He had done this because he possessed the ability to and the want was there. That wasn't all of it though.

"Because it's the only thing that made sense. For either of us. We need each other."

#sterling | threads #uxwantedheirs #v: but my own blood has been claimed (kidnap)

what did that even mean?

he knew the man didn't have to answer him, but, there came a point where Sterling truely thought that he'd put up enough fight to bear either killing him or forcing him to submit more than what had been done. that had not been the case and he was starting to wonder if it ever would be. if he was truely here just for the man's uses surely there was an easier target to grab, and yet, he had chosen Sterling. it was confusing to say the least.

"why would I possibly need you?" he asked, tone even keeled. he hated being confused, hated not being in control right now. and most of all, he hated feeling helpless. without the god, he had nothing to help him, nothing to fight this man, he was truely alone. he had not been this defensless since he took the deal with the god, and now? that presence was barely a thought. he knew it was still there, but, it was so dormant and so far away.... it must felt wrong.

Pinned Against A Wall Starters @eldritchtwined asked: [ FIGHT ]: while in a physical fight, Luca shoves the Sterling against the wall in an effort to gain the upper hand.

"You think yourself so fucking bold, don't you?" Venom dripped from the words, head cocked to the side as he advanced towards him. Luca reached forward hands heavily connecting with Sterling's body shoving him harshly into the wall behind him. "Soooo smart." Eyes rolled as he pressed in further, arm coming to press roughly against the others throat. "Don't you fucking get it yet? You're mine and you're not going anywhere."

Luca naively thought they'd been getting somewhere. Believed progress had been made and maybe that was his mistake. Hope. It always did find a way to burn him didn't it? Sterling dared make for the door, an escape in the making when his guard was down more than it should have been. Luca didn't humor him for a second once he realized his intentions and that's how calm had once again turned to chaos in the blink of an eye.
