Happy Halloween! You voted, and Mythology won. So this year, the girls showed up as gods, goddesses, and one or two things in between.

Here’s who came dressed as what:

  • Jill is Gaia, the earth itself, maybe even fertility.

  • Holly is Artemis, the huntress. Holly knows a thing or two about hunting men - also, in the myths, Artemis turned Siproites into a woman when he caught her bathing. Oops!

  • Kris is Persephone, queen of the underworld, half her life in the light and half in the dark. Pomegranate in hand, of course.

  • Cindy is Dionysus, god of wine and dancing! Being turned into a woman against her will sent Cindy looking for comfort wherever she can find it - and that means partying! Fun fact: in some versions of the myth, Dionysus was raised as a girl to hide him from Hera. So, yeah. She’s in good company.

  • Nikki is Mars, god of war. Yes, god! Don't push her on this.

  • Sandy is Venus, goddess of love and beauty.

  • Evie is Hecate, goddess of crossroads and witchcraft. Hopefully pretty fitting for a girl who’s plotting which way to chase Nikki next.

Thank you to everyone who voted!

Happy Halloween!!! šŸ’•

P.S. As always, full-resolution downloads below.

Amazing character choices and characterization. Absolutely stunning. Kris is my favorite. I have a weakness for Persephone, and it suits her. Someone is awfully pouty for being Mars

Annette

Fantastic! Thank you, Emory! Jill is the goddessest, Sandy is the beautifulest šŸ˜

Jenny S

This is so much fun! Jill is absolutely radiant, Kris is so enticing and dangerous, and out of all the Nikki pouts, this one might be the hottest. Also awarding the prize for best costume, these ladies are gorgeous but a lot of them just had these items in their closet, Nikki's the one putting in the effort :P Great work as always, Emory, Happy Halloween! <3

What a gorgeous selection of goddesses. Olympus would be proud, and Zeus’ roving eye wouldn’t know which way to turn. Jill is just sumptuous, Kris suitably mysterious, Sandy glowingly beautiful, but Nikki? The god of war just doesn’t pout.

Jade Diaz

Evie looks like she’s traveling down the witches road!

Gemma

What amazing joyful images of all the girls. My favourites are Kris, so pretty, and of course Nikki. Nikki as always is a stand out for me. Once again, the only one pouting, (oh what a sexy pout), still in denial, under sufferance, all of this ultimately just further highlighting just how pretty and sexy she now looks. Also, just love her costume and how it accentuates her feminine form and her small narrow and feminine waist.

A wonderful collection. I think that Nikki is my favourite. In my view, war is a very bad thing, so there is something refreshing in seeing its god subverted with such girliness (pout, makeup, shoes, etc.). Make girliness, not war, I say! (And I'm rather a Nikki fan.) I notice Evie's signpost pointing three ways. A lovely reference to the goddesses' title Trivia, a word that has come to mean something else, but was originally the goddess of the three ways. All of that said, I wonder why, having used five Greek names, you went for Venus and Mars, rather than Aphrodite and Ares. I write that as someone who, while acknowledging that we're stuck with television, is irritated when people coin words from mixed Greek and Latin roots. Also, I noticed that 185 people voted in the poll. Who are all those people, when far fewer comment or even like your posts? So far, 25 likes, and this seems about to become the seventh comment. Still, I suppose that, if there were 185 comments, reading them all would consume too much of your valuable time. But 185 likes would no possible harm.

Claire

They are Amazing! And your descriptions are perfect!

Superb work as always, muse Emory. I'm completely unable who to choose...but my Xuniverse characters Summer Chastity Crowe©™ and Shunfen Xu©™ would choose Holly, Jill and of course Evie...who alongside her mom, did their matching unicursal Valknut with oak leaves wreath, weeping angel and rose vine triquetra with circle ā­• tattoos.

Wojtek

Holly, Kriss and Evie are my favorite images, although they all look absolutely beautiful!

Crystal Peaches

Wow. These are all so so SO good. Nikki seems to be leaning into the part very well and Sandy is beguiling :) xx

Gemma

Just noticed little touches on Nikki’s outfit. The masculine symbol as subtly suggestion her ongoing resistance/ denial around acknowledging her feminised form. It’s no wonder she continues to also have that pout as further visible message of her ongoing protest to the pretty feminine costume she is has to wear and how she is being portrayed.

Crewchick

As always your art work is absolutely breath taking. I think Nikki, Sandy and Kris are my favorites.

Emory Ahlberg

Thanks, Helena! Persephone ate a few seeds and got stuck in the underworld half the year. Kris is holding the whole pomegranate, so make of that what you will 😈 And Nikki’s pout started the second she saw the ♂ on that breastplate... with actual breasts haha

Emory Ahlberg

Thank you, Jenny! Nikki’s the only one who had to hunt down a breastplate. I’m giving her the prize, and she’s going to act like she doesn’t care and then hang the ribbon on her shield lol

Emory Ahlberg

Evie would make it to the end of the Witches’ Road and be mad the prize wasn’t Nikki

Emory Ahlberg

Annette, ā€œgoddessestā€ is a real word now and I’m stealing it 🤩 lol

Emory Ahlberg

Robert, I have to defend Nikki here! In the Iliad, Ares gets wounded by a mortal, runs home to Zeus to complain about it, and Zeus tells him he’s the most hateful of all the gods. The god of war has a long history of pouting. Nikki’s doing it in gold heels, which is an upgrade 🤣

Helena Grace

Might explain why Chris comes and goes.

Emory Ahlberg

Gemma, the irony of a ♂ on a breastplate shaped like THAT sure isn’t lost on anybody, least of all Nikki. She got the most macho god on the list and still ended up in a cape and a leather skirt haha

Emory Ahlberg

Thanks, Kris! Your namesake got the throne this year, so that’s a win for all the Krises šŸ’•

Emory Ahlberg

Pet, the short answer is the symbols. ♂ and ♀ are the old signs for the planets Mars and Venus, his shield and spear and her hand mirror, so once Nikki’s armor and Sandy’s mirror were in the picture, those two had to go Roman! Plus Sandy in a seashell is Botticelli’s Venus which I think is fun! And I’m glad you caught the signpost! Hecate was also called Kleidouchos, the keybearer, so Evie came with her own set. Make girliness, not war haha

Emory Ahlberg

LOL - Sarah, those two words carry a whole season of Half Sisters!

Emory Ahlberg

Thanks, Claire! I had more fun matching each girl to her god than maybe I should admit šŸ’•

Emory Ahlberg

A Valknut, a triquetra, and a weeping angel in one mother-daughter appointment is a serious commitment.

Emory Ahlberg

Thanks, Wojtek! Holly’s greyhound would like some of the credit for that one. Artemis had a whole pack of hunting dogs in the myths, but none of them tried to steal her dress haha

Emory Ahlberg

Crystal, don’t let Nikki hear you! lol Thank you!

Emory Ahlberg

Two ♂s, and she’s still the prettiest soldier on Olympus.

Emory Ahlberg

Thank you, Diana! Nikki and Sandy are so fun together - at least for us!

Annette

Yay! 😻

Crewchick

Those two words also hold a host of completely different meaning depending on the tone and inflexion with which they are used. Shock: Oh Nikki!!!; Surprise: Oh Nikki!; Upset: Oh Nikki; Disappointment: Oh Nikki; Amusement: Oh Nikki! For just about anything Nikki does the appropriate response is "Oh Nikki! šŸ˜‚

Crewchick

I love the references you quietly incoroprated into the images. But with Evie, the sign post sow three directions, but does not say what those directions are. AAnd three keys, but no idea what they unlock. Perhaps I have fallen behind in my historical ready and Greek mythology?

Gemma

Again, thanks, in this case, sharing snippets of understanding and information and about the different mythological Gods. I too love the irony of the male symbol on Nikki’s costume and, how, as I said previously, her ā€˜justified pout’ and sense of mockery she might feel as she realises and recognises how her costume tends to just further highlights her feminine form and beauty.
