I could swear I've seen art of the Quigleys on their wedding day getting their tattoos but cannot for the life of me find the piece. Did I just hallucinate it some number of months ago? (Please tell me I'm not crazy)

Someone did some lovely fanart in that vein but I can’t find it either D: Can anyone help?

Is Sharon Fayette a Muslim? What are the most prevalent differences that arise in religion given the presence of ghosts? :D

yeah, at least culturally. her family has its roots in lebanon but she hasn't been there herself. she is not very good at being religious and i don’t think it’s very easy to believe in a benevolent god when you’ve grown up in west salem, but she kinda tries, mostly to feel closer to her family (who she is not currently in contact with). technically the player characters have not seen her in hijab yet--not “onscreen” anyway-- because she’s only started wearing it since she joined the police force. it is a visual character development thing that doesn’t exactly work because ghostge is all text... after the case 2 events she’s found a real purpose, which she didn’t really have before, and the road is gonna be dangerous and unforgiving, so she wears this thing that gives her a connection to her estranged family and is a symbol of commitment to her cause and divine protection.

ofc the actual reason i decided to give her a headscarf was because i wanted her to wear a thing that looks like the black cowl charon the ferryman is depicted with.

the only other character we have who has any obvious ties to religion is hendrick, who is a pc. he is in a cult that worships a god named heth and followers generally believe that the human body in its entirety is sacred including like toenails and stuff, so any magic using human materials is prohibited. hendrick’s solution is to carry a bag full of volatile animal blood and parts to use instead of using human entrails like normal people.

i try to avoid filling the outside world out too much because the story is never going to leave the confines of one district of a sprawling satan-worshipping city-state. i have some notes on what mexico and kongo are like because there are characters who moved here from those countries, and some about the state of north america in general, but not much else. i don’t really plan on delving into religion anywhere because i want to keep it fun and kinda simple in case any players want to expand that on their own. however it is canon that jehovah’s witnesses are reviled as tax evaders since they do not want others to use their blood and i think at least some sects of the abrahamic faiths decided worshipping god was a lost cause and figured that since they were going to hell anyway they might as well try to get on the devil’s good side. the entire world is a hive of scum and villainy

How about Aradia and Feferi? :D

you thought i wasnt gonna do this because it’s been 12 days but i did. i did

Aradia and Feferi are the keystones of the whole group. If they hadn’t met and become friends, there wouldn’t even be a group, and if everyone had managed to come together in some other way, it would have fallen apart pretty fast without them to keep it together. So their continued friendship isn’t just personally important, it’s important to everyone they know. Not even Eridan tries to interfere with it (at least, not much).

They forged their bond in roleplaying games. Their first meeting was a chance encounter, a randomized FLARP session of complete strangers, Aradia clouding for Feferi and her teammates. They both have a shared appreciation for story-driven campaigns and a morbid sense of humour, and they exchanged their contact info afterwards so that they could play against each other again. They’re sometimes teammates and other times rivals, but either way their teamwork has evolved to be ironclad. They’re both sure that the other is dependable and won’t let them down. Playing a game where the opposing player is in control of your environment and could easily kill you if they feel like it (and they might, when you’re both highbloods) is a pretty good trust-building exercise, turns out.

Despite that I’m not sure if I’d say they are the most important people to each other? Feferi would probably list Aradia as her best friend, but she’d also say that about like, four other people. Aradia would reserve that label for Karkat only. I think there’s some sort of professional/work relationship angle to it, maybe they are in reality more colleagues than friends? They are friendly colleagues who work very well together.

They probably high five each other a lot.
