☽ Welcome to the Temple of Vengeance! Greatest of the Great Gods, Khonshu, presiding. ☾
☽ Inbox: Open ☾
[Indie RP/Ask blog for Khonshu from the MCU's Moon Knight. Set after the show ends by default, but also open to other verses. Follows from youtriggeredmytrapcard. More info on the blog, or under the cut for mobile users.]
- MUN STUFF: My name's Kew! She/they, well over 21. No triggers. I only speak English fluently and any other languages will be google translate. Please forgive any mistakes.
- If you want to interact, my DMs are open for questions/plotting!
- FOR MINORS: 18+! Proceed with caution! This blog has and will explore darker themes and sexual topics. (Which will be tagged with "NSFW (sexual)" tag and hidden under a read more.)
- CONTENT WARNING FOR: Descriptions of violence, religious stuff, swearing, emotional manipulation, ableism (especially surrounding mental health stuff.) I’ll try to tag other things as they come up, but these usually won't be tagged unless it's more pronounced than usual.
- SPOILERS FOR MOON KNIGHT EVERYWHERE. There will be untagged spoilers for both the comics and especially the show.
- GENERAL RP ETIQUETTE: Don't make actions for my character without asking, don't assume past relationships/deep history without asking, don't read my character's mind, etc.
- MULTISHIP, MULTIVERSE: All interactions with different blogs are assumed to be on different verses unless requested otherwise. This blog doesn't have one common timeline.
- FEEL FREE TO REBLOG MEMES FROM ME. It actually helps me remember to send stuff out.
- NOT PRIVATE, BUT SELECTIVE: I sometimes don't follow big multimuses back since I have pretty strict tastes in fandoms, and I don't want to clog my dash with characters I don't know. That doesn't mean I don't want to roleplay with you though! As for selectivity, I reserve the right to say no if things just don't click writing-wise.
- KHONSHU IS AN ASSHOLE. Nothing he says reflects my real views about anything. If he’s mean to you, it doesn’t mean I don’t like you or you’ve done something wrong.
- FOR OTHER MOON KNIGHT SYSTEM MUSES: By default, I'll play Khonshu like he's connected to your muses. If you want it to be dimension-hopping shenanigans (which I'm super down to do, especially for ones more heavily based on the comics), let me know!
- FIGHTS: With rare exceptions, I'm just gonna say no to fight threads with Khonshu. Partly because he's incorporeal and really can't be hurt or hurt anyone else directly. Mostly because fighting other muses has always stressed me out. If it's something you really want to do, we can talk about it in DMs. (This doesn't mean your character can't attack Khonshu at all, it just means it probably won't work.)
☽ MUSE INFO ☾

OTHER NAMES: Chons, Bloody pigeon, Silly old bird (He accepts none of those)

- KHONSHU is the Egyptian god of the moon, vengeance, and healing, a minor god of time and wind, among other smaller things. While he is enormously powerful in theory, he’s mostly unable to affect the physical world without use of a mortal AVATAR, dubbed his MOON KNIGHT. Those who agree to be his Avatar are granted superpowers and near-invulnerability, in exchange for agreeing to carry out his mission: Bringing his vengeance against those who harm the travelers of the night.
- Khonshu is also somehow a billions-year-old grumpy baby who flips over trash cans when he doesn’t get his way.
- By default, Khonshu's current Avatar is JAKE LOCKLEY, only. Jake will make cameos on this blog when necessary, and you can request him in asks if you want. (For writing Jake, I don't have DID, so any attempt to reference/portray it is based on the comics and show. I don't write Marc or Steven.)
- Khonshu had feelings for ARTHUR HARROW back when he was an Avatar (and now?), specifically @preemptivejustice. The state of things between them depends on the verse, but it's now blog-canon in general.
- Normally, only his Avatar (or Avatars of other gods) are capable of seeing/hearing Khonshu, but let’s say this blog is a holy space where he can answer your prayers questions. (In threads, we can always bullshit a reason your character can see Khonshu.)
- This Khonshu is HEAVILY BASED ON THE DISNEY+ SHOW, which means he lacks a lot of the harsher history his comic book counterpart has. However, some bits of comic lore have been added/built upon, especially his fraught history with his father, AMON-RA.
Queer people are allowed to commit any crime this month and get away with it, just so you know. [Jake grins] It's kinda the law.
... Also, hey uhh dad, [Jake lowers his voice slightly] can I- um- tell you something?
"No it is not." Pride month was a perfectly fine practice humanity had adopted, but those celebrating weren't excused from his vengeance! Harming the travelers of the night would still earn his wrath!
... Khonshu tilted his head. "What is it, my son?"
[Jake crosses his arms and smirks like it's obvious] Well maybe it wasn't a law back in your day- two billion years ago or whatever- but it is now. Believe me, I would know. I hate getting arrested.
[Jake looks slightly nervous] ... Yeah Khonshu, uh, I just wanted to tell you that I like guys.
I just thought I should actually tell you, ya know. You're not... You're not mad or anything right?
"Is that supposed to be new information? After all your comments towards the Devil of Hell's Kitchen?" He laughed some more. "Maybe that is who you should telling, if you want to use the month as an excuse!"
He still thought Daredevil would be a bad influence on his avatar, with his insistence on non-fatal measures, but it was starting to get ridiculous. Especially if Jake thought his preferences were a secret.

“I didn’t realize you were - maybe we should start again. I’m Jake.”
First Impressions sentence starters
Marc was foolish for thinking that he could keep secrets from a god. From the moment they met, Khonshu had sensed his fractured mind, the pieces that made it up. Steven had come out fairly early on, leading to Marc's panic that Khonshu should stay away. That he'd do twice the amount of work if it meant leaving Steven out of their agreement. There was no such thing as being out of their agreement.
The third one got no such protection. Marc was the one being protected, by the same blessing of ignorance he gave to Steven.
But Khonshu knew.
And Khonshu was willing to wait.
The night he appeared hadn't felt particularly special, but that changed when the third manifested for longer than a few seconds. When Marc didn't immediately take back the reigns, none-the-wiser. He was here now, and unlike Steven, didn't act like a clueless idiot. He'd only seemed surprised when Khonshu appeared, since he hadn't done that with Steven. Not in a way Steven had noticed or remembered, anyway.
He wasn't afraid, either.
How interesting.
"Jake," Khonshu repeated, chuckling at the thought of starting over. He supposed he could go along with introductions, for what it might get him. "I am the god Khonshu, of vengeance and the moon. It is through my power that you still live, to protect the travelers of the night. But I don't need to explain to you, do I?"
