Incident - Tentacle Cat/Unseelie Witches

Content Warning: Spirits getting hunted. 

Incident: Tentacle Cat, my cat sidhe friend, getting hunted down by unseelie witches.

Date: July 30, 2017

Those Involved: Tentacle Cat, cat sidhe with two forms. Black cat with tendrils holding the hearts of consumed souls. And a humanoid form with pointed ears, dark grey skin, and black hair with pure white eyes.           Two dark elf witches with avian forms (swan and raven), of two sub-courts. (Shadowtree and Nightwind)

Why: Tentacle Cat left the Unseelie Court, as a young adult. Leaving the court mean having your personhood revoked and being seen as prey.

Details:  The boyfriend and I were going home from California Extreme. We were around Pacifica at this point. I’m half asleep and the car’s gentle motions of being driven rocked me to semi-astral. I notice these two witches following us. Deep dark blue skin for one, another has dark blue. They have robes fluttering in the wind as they flew. Tentacle Cat is like “oh shit” and the house guardian has to wipe them out. Tentacle Cat later identifies their courts judging by their clothing and then eats their hearts to get their power. Grows more tendrils as a result.

(Witch is a rough english translation by Tentacle Cat of their role in Unseelie Society, signifying they have mastered various malicious magics and have a higher skill level compared to other fae in magic.)

Shadowtree is apparently a court in a dark forest with no sun, leafless trees where the branches stab outsiders and drain them of blood.

Nightwind is a nomadic court whose followers ride the dark skies. Dragging people from their bodies and consuming parts of their souls is a tactic of theirs. See hagriding. (Riding their victim’s souls as a steed.)

Incident - Nightshadows and Fauns

cw: spirits getting hunted and eaten

Incident: My companion getting attacked by a nightshadow wyvern.

Date: August 7, 2017

Location: Stockton, CA

Species/Companions Involved:

Oak Fauns/Hooved Ones: Native california species of faunlike entities that rely on oak woodlands for their reproductive cycle. (They bury their offspring underground and they gestate, feeding off the ecosystem’s lifeforce)

Nightshadow Wyverns - Pitchblack wyverns made up of pure void, living shadows. Picking off the local fauns and eating them.

Anonymous companion

House guardian

Details:

So I’m visiting my friend’s house, walking his dogs with him. It’s night time. Around nine pm.  There’s a few nightshadow wyverns perched on the suburban houses. A few soar overhead under the full moon. Fauns huddle under brush and slink past human dwellings.

My companion is sleepily curled up on my shoulder and the house guardian strides next to me, ever watchful.

The guardian has the fauns tentatively IDed as oak fauns, there is a nearby oak woodland near by. Remnant habitat left over from before settlers came and ruined everything, left over from before the suburb was built. He thinks the fauns are just picking through the suburbs, their ancestral homelands, in an attempt to survive. Threatened species.

As we enjoy the cool night air and the bright moonlight, I sight a few nightshadows swoop down and carry off fauns to eat. Or just chomp down. My house guardian gets fed up with the wyverns eating the fauns and shoots off energy beams to get them to fuck off.

It doesn’t really work. One wyvern tries to swoop at me, only for my shield to flare out and it bounces off. The tail clips through it and I grab it as a snack.

It’s calm for a while.

I see fauns watching out warily from rooftops armed with bows and arrows, a few young ones are buried under plants. Planted there by parents in an attempt to replace the lost oaks.

The wyverns circle back and swoop down, my companion hooked in their claws. The house guardian flies off to retrieve her and I’m watched over by my other companions.

Another tries to directly attack me, my shield gets smashed open, and as the entity phases through me, I reflexively absorb its heart/core. Its body tumbles and crashes on the road, an empty husk. My void tendrils hook some of the etheric meat and I easily absorb it.

This happens in several quick seconds.

I’m walking the dogs, so I leave the body behind. Letting the cool night air swallow its dark shadowy body.

Spirit Type: Big Lizard/Metal Eater

Appearance: Black scales covered with orange rust over their back and belly.

Date: Late July 2017

Location: Central Valley, CA

Encounter: I was in my mom’s backyard. This threefoot long lizard was on the old gardening tools, gnawing it. (My mom’s yard is home to a family of sandhill crane shifters/elves, the elder said it ate the rust.) Later that week, I found the rust skink and its wife/mate floating and swimming in my mom’s bath tub pond. They were like “about time we got a swimming pool.” Its really hot where I grew up.

Location: Central Valley, CA

Encounter: After I talked to the family of sandhill crane shifters in my mom’s yard, I started seeing these little rabbits in my mom’s pots. She keeps a ton of indoor plants. The bunnies would pop out of the dirt and wriggle their little noses, ears folded flat against their head.                   Then the elder snagged the bunny with wizened leathery clawlike hands and popped the bunbun into his mouth.  His family eats them. I asked if I could have one and he got all frosty with me.                                               “You have your food, and I have mine.” He’s very aware of my mom’s shopping trips. “They breed fast.” An image shown in my head of a bunny with seed pods popping open with more tiny rabbits rolling out.

My mom takes good care of her yard and has a ton of outdoor furniture which they sit in a lot. The younger brother also can shift into a coyote due to inheriting it from an ancestor. With the new bathtub pond, I catch them sitting in it.

Neighbors - Dragons, Fog Critters, and One Pond Boy (cw: spirits eating other spirits)

Name: Pygmy Rhal Dragons (smaller version of their bigger cousins)

Spirit Type: Dragon/Insect

Appearance: Palm-sized green western dragon with butterfly wings.

Date: May 2017 - August 2017

Location: San Francisco, CA

Known Habitat: Flowering shrubs and bushes.

Diet: Sugary drinks such as honey, juice, soda, nectar. In lean years, swarms will attack and drain other entities of their fluids to the point of desiccation.

Encounter:  A colony lives next to my home in two flowering trees. They call themselves “the swarm of Smoked Honey.” Since my roommate always grills outside and they find the smell and food to be delicious.

The little critters often go inside my kitchen to drink delicious juice and honey, in return for them guarding my place. They enjoy watching the sunset with me, flying in a swarm cloud as I go for walks, and inhaling the scented vapor from my boyfriend’s vape pen. Incense is also a favorite of theirs.

The swarm grew up in a nearby park and moved next to my house after they become adults. But they still visit their mother swarm.

My companion was horrified when he found out they desiccate spirits of body fluids in bad years. Proceeded to lecture them to make sure they dont target my household.

I assume like their bigger cousins, they have a caterpillar and pupae state.

(As a side note: physical butterflies also will drink body fluids so their behavior doesn’t surprise me. Source.)

Mist Elves need clean air, otherwise they need to wear a filter. Kern Basin Wildlife Preserve.  Haven’t seen enough fog serpents to know where they live, but I think they are native to the bay area.

Diet: Clean mist and fog, with the life force/oxygen drawn from plants.

Encounter: My boyfriend and I were driving through Pacifica, CA to drop off some friends on the way back from California Extreme. It was extremely misty. Tentacle Cat, my cat sidhe friend, was with us. He has friends in the area and they caught his scent and decided to land in our car. The elf rides the fog serpent as a sapient steed.

I’ve also encountered mist elves before and hung out with one a few months ago. She was riding a feathered raptor as a steed, next to the amtrak train. (Yes, like the dinosaur). And enjoyed sitting in fountains and getting refreshed in the fountain. Since her kind need water to keep their form intact. They can turn into mist as well.)

Sources: @rider-waite whose met both mist elves and raptor spirits before and my companion tentacle cat.

Digital Elementals - Pixel Clouds

Name: Pixel Clouds

Spirit Type - Elemental?

Appearance: Floating clumps of pink pixels

Date: 7/30/17

Location: California Extreme, Santa Clara, CA

Encounter: California Extreme is a convention where people bring their private collections of arcade games for people to play. While I was playing, these clouds of pink pixels hovered above the crowds. I believe they were feeding off the electrcity produced by the machines and the joyful emotions of the human crowds. My companion called them “digital elementals.”
