masks and helmets that hides someone's face in such a way that they become the face themselves my beloved

these are all creatures to me

Angel of War, angular and strange, gleaming silver and gold, Angel of Wonder, pure and one-eyed, looking to stars new and old, Angel of Harvest, simple and hidden, bring nature's sweetness to all, Angel of Health, mysterious and fine, beacon when life starts to fall, Angel of the Deep, crooked and cage-like, guide us across the sea, Angel of Solace, protect us from evil, lead us to where we are free.

Was inspired by the previous post a while back, and had been working on this on and off for a long while.

A lot of the beings mentioned in the Dream Quest are barely described if they even get more than a name-drop. As I generally try to avoid Chaosium canon, that gave me a lot of freedom to do whatever I wanted.

The sniflunk is a particular case. It's almost entirely original, only known from the story by the mysterious webbed footprints surrounding Carter's exsanguinated riding zebra.

[Guiding-star-through-endless-void] is the Sector Demigod of the launch facility, the newest of the Tsan Chan sectors. Starguide is responsible for cultural exchange between space-based humans and the Tsan Chan empire. They also serve as a diplomat with the Solar Council and the Meat Witches.

Space is always with Starguide and gravity fails in their presence.

[Bouncing-with-endless-joy], [The-cool-embrace-of-perfect-twilight], and [Quilted-with-the-wisdom-of-arts-long-practiced] are the Sector Demigods of the city's three Residential Sectors.

Of all the Mighty Children they are the most consistently approachable. While they are no more capable of expressing themselves through language than any other Mighty Child, they can be found socially interacting with people throughout their sectors. Bouncing Joy is the most physical, constantly hugging and encouraging young Tsan Chan citizens to play. Cool Embrace is more reserved, preferring to act as a quiet confidant and empathetic listener. Quilted Wisdom enjoys joining in on projects and activities of a more artistic bent. Countless murals and hangings across the city have been aided by Quilted Wisdom.

The three don't stay in their own dedicated Sectors and wander not only each other's but all the Sectors that have citizens living there. Cool Embrace in particular sometimes walks through the Yellow Sector to visit Cassilda on her isolated island home.

They all give good hugs. Bouncing Joy is like hugging a gigantic, firm koosh ball. Cool Embrace is like if the cold side of the pillow could hug you back. Quilted Wisdom will turn you into a blanket burrito.

[A sheathed blade mindful of future necessity] is the demigod of the War Sector and its drone temples, where autonomous combat weapons chant in prayer that they will not be needed.

It is the most powerful of the Mighty Children by far and even its shell is nearly three times the size of the other Children. While its siblings are potent warrior sorcerers in their own right, should the Tcho-Tcho, K’n-yani, Spawn or even Yig himself threaten the empire, the Mindful Blade will be the one to lead them and the machine army in battle.

Like the drone weapons it is responsible for, Mindful Blade knows that its existence is a sad response to a hostile universe. While it might have preferred to have another purpose, it takes its duties seriously and will defend the Empire with everything it has if it ever becomes necessary.
