[gayleviticus]

"The Lord would not only love his creation as a Father, but he would enter into his creation, emptying himself, hiding himself, as if he were not God but a creature. Why should he do this? Because he loved his creatures and because he could not bear that his creatures should merely adore him as distant, remote, transcendent, and all powerful. This was not the glory that he sought, for if he were merely adored as great, his creatures would in their turn make themselves great and lord it over one another. For where there is a great God, then there are also god-like men, who make themselves kings and masters."

-Thomas Merton, New Seeds of Contemplation, pp. 292-293

Incarnate

Noun

A being who identifies as a specific fictional vampyre and experiences themselves as that character incarnated in the flesh. The literal meaning: “embody in flesh” or “give bodily form.”

For an Incarnate, the incarnation (character) extends beyond admiration or personal connection and is recognized as an intrinsic part of the self, expressed through daily life.

I.e. I am an incarnate. The incarnation of Louis from The Vampire Chronicles. I incarnated as Louis.
