Eye of the Dead

Greetings, mortal. I am Anubis. Guardian of the Dead, God of Mummification and funerals. I travel through the plains to see all of humanity's status. Pray that you do not end up being one of the damned, as I have so often seen. [Individual RP Blog for Anubis. Mun is 18+. Does not smut, but contents may contain gore.

“More guests….it would seem that I must find the cause of this phenomenon before anymore of you unfortunate souls get lost in my abode.”

Johnny blinks slowly– vision going from the one who greeted him to their immediate surroundings. This place isn’t familiar and this certainly isn’t where he’s suppose to be. 

He’s gotten lost before, but not this lost.

“Uh…” A hand raises to scratch at his cheek, lips pulling into a slight frown. “I’m sorry if I’m intrudin’ or anythin’ like that.” Perhaps Johnny should be a bit more concerned as to how he ended up here, but this definitely wasn’t his first encounter with bizarre circumstances. “So, erm, two questions: Where am I ‘n where’s the nearest exit?”

Hmm....strange human. The closer he looked at the new guest, the more he noted about his own soul. It seemed to be under a contract of some sort?? Hmm. Yes and no. Seemed to be the work of another creature’s work, but nothing he had domain over. Pity. Though he would keep his eye on this new one, just in case...yet the most interesting thing about this man was that he had the power of judgement on him. Almost similar to the gods around him.

Strange...

“Currently, no. You’ve not intruded or interrupted any business currently. As for where exactly you are, you are in The Underworld itself, mortal. Currently in my abode, specifically. Getting you home should not pose any problems, though it might take a bit,” the god admitted, shaking his head as a slight sigh had been admitted from him.

Not many mortals remembered them anymore, as sad as it was.

“No harm will come to you unless you decide to cause trouble here, understood? I suppose introductions are in order, however: I am Anubis. God of embalming the dead and protector of the scales. Now I ask my own question, mine simply being who exactly are you?”

“Hmm. I did not expect a champion to come into my realm. Though it leads to the question as to why you are here. Have your gods sent you?”

[bloodstainedbread-a]

The battle weary dragoness took pause when spoken too. Grey eyes gave the stranger a cautious look, only moving her blade back when she realized this was a deity. Not a person here to kill – a foreign god, and they deserved their respect.

“Pray forgive me for stumbling upon your land. I have been sent here to root out an evil that has taken stronghold here, and my gods wish for me to hand out punishment appropriate.” Lyth was politely saying that she was here to clean up a mess and to kill. 

Her weapon went into a neutral pose, her upper body inclining in a respectful bow. “If this were under different conditions I would be more open to discuss – but at this time I cannot. The gods wish to have permission to step in and to remove the evil from your land that has fled from ours.”

[weigherofhearts]

Needless to say he was already on the alert when he saw this creature with a weapon ,ready to strike and attack if need be. But soon enough the god watched as this mortal realized her surroundings, taking on a respectful position once more. Good. That would lead to their path going a little smoother.

Though he analyzed her, studied her soul to see what sort of champion she was...after all, any god could claim a mortal as their champion, both good and evil. And to even more of Anubis’ relief, she was not of any evil deity’s control. Especially not of Set himself....

As he waited patiently, he listened to this creature speak and noted the complete honesty in her words. Hmm...this was indeed troublesome. Though what exactly was here, he was not sure of it. Anubis was not inclined to take matters from another god’s business into his own hands...but it had been his realm??

How dare they?

“Very well, mortal. But under the circumstance that I lead you through my realm itself as protection. There are many things that would not take too kindly to you being here,” he warned.

“You are quite the strange mortal. You stand here with mind and soul…yet you are incomplete somehow.”

“…I’m missing something important. This is true. I want reclaim it but I doubt it is in your power to grant it to me freely.”

[weigherofhearts]

Hmm....such a strange predicament. To be missing such a vital part of one’s being....was not right. Mainly to this specific god. And with this, he leaned down towards the mortal, looking him up and down before a clawed hand gently tapped the other’s chest, giving a displeased sound when he figured out exactly how this miserable creature was incomplete.

Troublesome....very troublesome.

“Your very heart is missing....the one thing we use here to be able to properly judge and send a soul either to the after life or to the Underworld. But you already knew what was missing. As for if it is in my power to restore it....it would simply depend on many factors. One of those being how exactly you lost such a valuable asset in the first place. Perhaps then, I will be able to judge properly.”

Another mortal….which meant another unexpected guest. How in all of the Underworld did this keep happening? Alright…this definitely needed to be fixed, less other mortals get seriously hurt somehow…even if some didn’t learn to hinder their stupidity.

"And who might you be to step into my realm?" the jackal-headed god asked, looking down at the mortal.

[redhotscythe-archive]

Spirit stood up, dusting himself off. “What in the hell..” He muttered to himself. “Now where am I?” Glancing about himself he heard the voice first before noticing the actual God before him.

"Hm? Spirit Alroy Alb-.." As he turned, his voice dropped. Blinking up at the dog-headed creature he squinted in thought. "Now you look awfully familiar I.." Tilting his head he placed finger to his chin in thought. "I’ve seen you somewhere before.." 

Unphased too much by the actual head of the jackal.. he’s seen stranger sights.. but he was chagrined to find himself in a place that clearly wasn’t Death City. 

"Either Asura or my Lord seems to be playing a trick on me." He grunted. "Sir! Yes! You there.. err Fido?" He cleared his throat, unsure as to what to call him. "Can you help me get home?!"

[weigherofhearts]

This was no surprise to the god. Him and other Egyptian gods had been all but nearly forgotten, save for a few that still came here and there. Once, they were worshiped just about everywhere. Now, it seemed that they were slowly fading away and left alone to nothing more than the imagination of those who once remembered.

"It would not surprise me, Mortal. My face among many other gods like myself have been passed around throughout many of what you would artifacts among the years," he explained, giving a small nod.

However, once the name Fido had been uttered, the calm position was instantly shattered, the God's eyes glowing an eerie yellow as a feral snarl escaped from Anubis.

"Do not insult me by using such a name! You are lucky I do not smite you where you stand, Spirit Albarn! I am Anubis, the god of Mummification and protector of the scales. You would do best to remember this," he growled.

The god blinked once or twice, not having expected the mortal to actually know who he was. Most seemed to have come into his domain without any knowledge of who or what he was. Sad to say, but he supposed even the knowledge of his own would fade out eventually.

So when the mortal in front of him actually fell to his knees, it enticed an amused, throaty chuckle from the god, motioning for him to stand up.

"Rise, mortal. It is refreshing to see someone who is knowledgeable of such things. Most that I have seen do not remember much of the Gods of old. As for not knowing how you came into my domain, this seems to be a recurring problem," he admitted, his shoulders sagging slightly.

[penaltygame-deactivated20150907]

Yami stood carefully. “I feel as if I have known you from years ago. I’m not sure how, but I cannot deny this knowledge. As for those who have come into your presence without proper respect…” His heart seemed to crawl up into his throat, choking out the words. How dare these humans not show reverence to the god of mummification and the judger of souls.

"Perhaps the reason I feel as if I know you is because I judge the hearts of those who come across me and trespass in my soul. My name is Yuugi Mutou."

[weigherofhearts]

At the mention of knowing him, the god made a sound of pondering, leaning it just a little closer as if to analyze the boy that stood in front of him, lifting up his staff as he gently tapped his head.

"Perhaps reincarnation of sorts. This would not surprise me as your soul is around a few thousand years old, mortal. So in this, perhaps knowledge once buried has surfaced and made itself known to you."

He could see how the other reacted when he spoke of those not showing reverence to him. To which it gave him nostalgia. How long had it been since one would have dared to defend him in such a way? A very, very long time. Times changed, however, and he could only do so much.

With this, he straightened out once more, nodding once when he heard the boy's name.

"Then do tell me, Yuugi, how it is you have stumbled into my domain. Or would this be what you humans would refer to as an accident?"

"…You remind me of Ammit from the way you carry yourself. But what brings you to my domain? There is not a Weighing of the Hearts trial to be done as of yet," he mused.

[ultorrs]

"Ammit? I’m afraid I have not heard about him before. And what is this Weighing of hearts trial? Is it judgement of the dead—if so then that’s my specialty. Who are you?"

[weigherofhearts]

"Her," the god corrected.

Yet another one who knew nothing of him....truly these were indeed sad times...

"As for what it is, it is a ceremony that I myself partake in as well. It is a long, and ancient tradition that has been around for quite sometime now."

Strange...this...creature had assumed such a role as his specialty? The jackal headed god said nothing, his eyes narrowing at said creature before he continued.

"I am Anubis: God of mummification and keeper of the scales. I have been judging the souls of the dead as well far longer than most can even hope to comprehend. Now...who are you?"
