The Lashunta from Castrovel (va-vara-varru)

Art by James William Waterhouse - a woman stands up on rocks within a pond. She wears a dark gown slipping off her shoulders. She holds a wide, shallow bowl before her, from which water pours.

Here I see a Damaya priestess making a libation of sacred rainwater collected from the leaves of a temple's milk-trees.

What entity is she propitiating?

...In #Lashunta terms, Korasha are the blunt instrument paired to the Damaya's finesse, and psychically and intellectually matched to make a formidable pair. It's almost as if the two sub-species were designed, despite their superficial contrasts, to dynamically complement each other.

...PF1E's People of the Stars describes them as compact, muscular, & hirsute, as well as brusque and warlike. The inspiration comes from ERB's apemen of Opar, from Tarzan. Per the pulp, the ancient Antlantians had bred humans with apes to create a suitable warrior underclass...

Art by Adnan Ali - bust of an ape-like orc with short hair, squashed nose, and strong jaw. Red stains his forehead, brow, right eye, and upper jaw, along with his breastbone. Notably it traces scars in his skin.

...What happens between two species when symbiosis breaks down?

I've written about symbiosis's importance in #Lashunta society. Yet symbiosis is fragile. It requires trust, possibly violating species' instinct and body language...

Shores Of Night The hot, new, rules-medium take on weird, surreal, and cosmic horror roleplaying (no gods, no kings, no sanity mechanics, all cubes)!

Not sure if this is a bit like trying to sell milk to dairy farmers, but it's cool to see what folks are working on.
