Open call for any mythological/cultural/cryptological entities that VIZORS believe could be introduced into the BONEMEN ecosystem and acclimate.

Conglomerate assets, Godhead Mercenaries, rogue elements, the universe can hold many monstrosities.

The Chinese Celestial Bureaucracy seems to be a good fit for the Bonemen verse. Crushing corporate politics meets Crushing government politics. Another suggestion is the Buddhist Pantheon, a meaningful counterbalance to the horribleness of the other major factions. A maybe flawed but ultimately good faction that acts to help and raise all beings to enlightenment and escape the hell of mortal and immortal existence.

If we're talking crypto stuff you gotta have the moth man

Word has it the Conglomerate may have encountered the Old Entities known as Leviathan whom even the Divine Intelligance who crafted the Godflesh knew to fear for its strength. One lives while the other is dead which may be a great asset to the Conglomerate...

Apedemak, a war god and cheif deity of the Kushite religion viewed as an equal to Amen by the people within the kingdom of Kush. Due to there similarities in station, some historians suspect that Apedmak and Amun were rivals within the Kushite religion. He could be a tarturus inmate or even a potential enemy of everything. Gbonka Ebiri (this one is pretty niche): a general to the Yoruba god, Sango. He turned against his god after being forced to kill and behead his best friend and fellow general due to a deception born concocted by Sango out of fear and jealousy of Gbonka’s rising power. I could see him working as lower level bounty hunter or mercenary (like Makhai captain level). I imagine he would be on payroll with the conglomerate due to his less than stellar track record with the gods.

I've been saving up ideas for just this occasion. GARUDA - Killer of QUETZALCOATL. The Hegemony wants his head served up on a silver platter. Wendigo - Frequent parasites of Xibalba biotechnology, essentially the equivalent to termites. If left unchecked, they can reduce entire harvestworlds to dead husks of gnawed bones. Gashadokuro - Often created as a byproduct of Wendigo infestations; the two monsters then often tear one another apart. Limited research has been done on using them as raw material for BONEMEN Nuckelavee - Either Xibalban biotechnology or subjects of interest for the Hegemony. Could even integrate with Hegemony stuff to make the Four Horsemen. Dullahans - Leader of an army of Horsemen? Xiuhcoatl - Former disciples of QUETZALCOATL now left despondent and scattered after their monarch's death, zooming through space like living meteors and occasionally buzzing planets' atmospheres. Ghouls - These and other corpse-eaters willingly aligned themselves with the Hegemony with the promise of nigh-infinite flesh. They're frequent workers in flesh-mines, as well as cullers of mortal stock and failed bits of biotechnology; also frequently used to clear out Wendigo infestations. SUN WUKONG - Apex Primate Entity, currently sealed in TARTARUS-3 ASTARION - One of Poseidon's bastard spawn, pawned off to TARTARUS-3 as both guard and prisoner. Scylla and Charybdis - A duo of spaceborne monsters that the Olympians leave out in the borders of their territory. Scylla rides atop her hunting partner, reaching out with tentacle-maws that stretch for parsecs to grab ships and drag them into range of Charybdis' black-hole maw. Hegemony vessels are by far their favorite prey - more flesh on them. SEDNA and KETOS - two sea goddesses that share either a flooded world or a body of water orbiting a black hole, each perpetually creating monstrosities that prey upon the other's in a midway partnership and rivalry. ARES - As a purveyor of War, ARES is the only Olympian to readily engage in arms deals with other pantheons, meaning that his arsenal is also among the most varied. His personal chariot is a War of the Worlds-styled tripod. CIPACTLI - Enormous slain monster whose colossal still-twitching form is used as source material for new flesh-mines and worlds, calved off and cultured like cells. It's recently fallen out of favor thanks to other sources now being readily available, but the draconic element within is still occasionally utilized. Umibozu - Might be suited for WYRM instead; hunting them is a popular sport for immortals on oceanic worlds. The white variety, Ningen, are particularly prized.

I'd like to see something like Aborted One troops/spawn. I'm thinking along the lines of the Dark Young of Shub-Niggurath or the Mi-Go. But then I'm just a sucker for blights on reality.

I have some ideas -BELOBOG- The White Spear and Twin of Chernobog It’s been stated before that some infernals have tried to reconnect with the Original Intelligence, but most of these demonic traitors have either been killed or taken captive by the Conglomerate. But what if one escaped and found a way to connect with the OI. -NEMESIS- The Divine Executioner One of Zeus’ most loyal followers, she is in charge of making sure worlds under Olympus’ rule remain loyal to the Dodekatheon Empire. And with the disappearance of several Olympians, she has risen to high status among the pantheon, making her all the more dangerous. -GIGANTES- Long before the destruction of the Jotunheim, a group of giants set out into the void to find something to end Asgard and Olympus, once and for all. Except what they found would be far worse than any god. They came across an Aborted One instance which suprisingly did not kill them, but it twisted their bodies, minds, and magic. They ravaged system after system in their mindless rampage, until coming across a First Tool entity named Gaia. Though she could not relieve them of their physical corruption, she could them of their madness, and impart them with a mission: DESTROY OLYMPUS -VANIR- After the Aesir gave up their flesh to the Archonic Intelligence, Vanaheim and it's gods stood defiant until countless espionage wars managed the complete digital subjagation of the realm. Now they're on the run, Freyr as their most prominent fugitive, he's said to have seeked religious sanctuary in Alfheim. -THRYM- The Prince (now king) of the JOTNAR After it was discovered that the heir to the giants' throne survived, dozens of godhead-ordered assassinations were attempted, yet almost none of the assassins have returned. Whispers say it's because the Prince (now king) Thrym carries the original version of Mjolnir, after he supposedly "borrowed" it from Thor after almost killing him with it. Word has spread that those few Giants with honor, loyalty, or empathy, have joined him in a hidden world at the edge of Yggdrasilian space. This possible action has raised the question if Thrym truly is the heir to the throne, if he really is the son of the UTGARD king. The same king that killed Jotunheim's ecosystem, turned their once peaceful people into barabric piraters, and led the way to their homeworld’s demise. Nevertheless, reports from various H&M surveillance drones show he's been conversing with LOKI, his children, the Vanir, Svartalfar, even SURTUR and his friends. Thrym remains a hated enemy of THOR and one of the Aggregate of Aesir’s most wanted. (The Xibalbans also keep finding their plague giants mysteriously obliterated) -NYX&EREBOS- The Darks between the Stars There are many things throughout the multiverse that can make gods and demons scared, but there only a very, VERY small number of things that make angels and aborted ones afraid .

Not really a cryptid but the Spartoi are men made from the teeth of dragon's buried in the ground. I had an idea for their design being themed after their host dragon, and magnificently ornate to boot.

Keep cooking brother.

Infernal Conglomerate Branches - We've been exposed to various branches through their affiliates (Malphas through Torquemada & Baphomet through Hessian) but almost every other infernal creature in my recent memory is not explicitly tied to other branches. Curious to know more about the other "Infernal Lords" that come together to overthrow the mantle and formed the conglomerate in the first place.

Tried to keep it varied across myths so here goes: ANANSI's always been a favourite of mine so he's my god choice. Everyone loves a fun trickster. If you have Fomorians in the Enemies of Everything then BALOR OF THE EVIL EYE would be a great candidate. Monsters are more varied: .BAKE-KUJIRA. Giant skeleton whale that casts curses of plague, famine and fire to those that eat or hunt its cetacean kin. Followed wherever it goes by ominous swarms of birds and fish. .Ox-Head and Horse-Face. Chinese guardians of the realm of the dead whose function was to guide new souls to the underworld. They could be fun little comedic characters there. .KHOLOMODUMO - the great formless Sotho beast that devours everything it comes across. Endlessly hungry. .The Salmon of Knowledge. That would be a fun one. With cryptids, I like the more recent internet urban legends - digital ghosts like the Blind Maiden, memetic entities that gain power the more people summon them. The Jersey Devil's been on the brain a little too.

The Oni have seemed absent, though my memory may be folly.

INTI The ancient Sun God of the Inca Culture. He was so bright that the proto-humans could not bear to see him in the sky. He was the father of Manco Capac the founder of the Inca Empire. In some versions he was jealous of the Moon shining as bright as he was and threw ash at her to dampen her glow. Viracocha/Wiraqocha A Creator Deity of the Inca in some versions. The god had a hand in the creation of a proto-human race of giants who lived in a world of pure darkness. Due to the world being pure darkness the Giants were blind and resorted to violence quickly. Viracocha slew them or sealed them away depending on the version. He then later tries again and created the current race of humans where he went on a journey to judge if they were worthy or if he would have to reset and try again. In the end he judges them as worth keeping around and then walks into the ocean where he becomes sea foam. His name can also mean "Fat/Foam Of The Sea" Wrinkle Face is an entity from the Moche Culture who appears largely around symbols of burials, sacrifice. They are usually seen wearing a feline headdress and serpent belt, was accompanied by a supernatural iguana. One of their appearances happened in an art piece called "The Revolt of Objects" which appears in a pachacuti, an event where the world ends and is renewed. I have not seen much confirmation but there has been some conflation with him being Ai-Apec a punitive god of the Moche Culture. The Little Old Man: He's only mentioned briefly in Inca mythology so I'll post what I've read about him. He appears out of nowhere and causes a society collapsing plague, and then wanders away. Leaving disaster in his wake. "This new ayllu (community) was destroyed during the Pisti Timpu (Time of Pestilence). The plague was a little old man who came up the path from Colquepata (the district capital) with a backpack and blowing a pututu (conch-shell trumpet). The plague passed Q’ello Unu and Huancarani, and when it reached Sonqo nearly all the people died. During this time, parents butchered and ate the bodies of their dead children, and babies were left to suckle on the breast milk of their dead mothers. There was no one to bury the dead, and guinea pigs, normally raised in houses for food, ate the dead bodies. At this time, money was scarce, and whenever you had money you tried to spend it as soon as possible." The Chullachaqui: A Duende who lives in the Amazon Rainforest, he is known for having one goat leg alongside a normal, for a duende, leg. He is known for causing massive problems to those who catch his attention. There are many versions of his legends, but a common theme is leading people astray in the jungle either to get them lost or fall prey to another creature. He also plays a drum made of human skin that drives those who hear it mad. Tunche: A creature from the Amazon who in some versions eats the souls of people lost in the Amazon. It shapeshifts into other people and tries to tempt or mislead humans, it's voice is considered alluring. The only warning it gives is the sound of a bird chirping. The closer it sounds the further away it is, the further away it sounds the closer it is. Qhoa: Is a large winged feline deity that lived in the sky. It had control over the weather up there causing rain, storms, or even hail. It's eyes dropped lightning, it's roar was thunder, and the flapping of its wings would cause hail. Has many names others being, Ccoa, Coa, Qoa, K'oa, and so on. Ayar Cachi: One of the siblings of Manco Capac (child of Inti). He was the strongest of his siblings who could destroy hills with a single shot of his sling, and reshape the land. However, his siblings became fearful that people would leave them due to Ayar Cachi's power. And so they betrayed him by having one of their siblings trick Ayar Cachi into disarming himself and leading him to a cave. There Ayar Cachi was trapped in the cave when Tampu-Chacay closed the opening with a large rock. However before his death Ayar Cachi turned one of his siblings Tampu-Chacay into stone. In some versions he simply does not escape and it isn't mentioned if he died. He was associated with an obscure lightning deity. All of these are from Peruvian Culture/Mythology!

Perhaps ATEN, the false Egyptian sun god that neatly usurped the entire pantheon? I would also love a Bonemen unit based on AHUIZOTL!

Glarn Boudin

Would make for excellent Dodekatheon troops!

Glarn Boudin

Oh man, I could see the Egyptian Pantheon absolutely *obliterating* Aten.

What are the current existing factions of the universe? I don't want to step on already existing toes

Vermi King

Oh almost forgot a few other things: Kukuchi: Are the souls of sinful individuals who get stuck in the rotting corpse they once had. The body putrefying with them stuck inside of it. They tend to wander high glaciers, and are greatly feared because they eat flesh. Figured it could be one of those situations it's a fodder for a group. Amaru: Are two headed dragons or serpents that originate from the underworld. (The Andean Underworld gets wild). Anyways, they tend to be like chimeras representing multiple animals like pumas, Caiman and condors. They are associated with water and the sudden, violent overturning of established order. They also appear at the end of one of the world ending events breathing flames. Yacumama: Is a gigantic serpent that lives in the Amazon. It is believed to be the Mother of Rivers, and the Mother of all monsters/animals that come from the waters. She is able to suck up any living thing that passes with 100 steps of herself. People generally played an instrument either drums or a conch horn (depends on the version) believing that it would cause her to appear so they know to avoid that specific river. Supay: Is an Underworld deity heavily associated with mining rituals, caves, and the under ground. Miners would pray and do rituals to appease him so that they could have safe travels. Muki: A variant of Duendes who are related to caves and miners. More depending on the region they can do many things, like give you gold or super good luck when it comes to mining. They can even cause cave-ins and seem to be focused more on the Underground connecting to the Underworld aspects of legends.

The Infernal Conglomerate: Classic Demons from Christian lore Aggregate of the Aesir: Robotic Norse Gods Xibalban Hegemony: Mayan Death Gods Dodekatheon Empire: Greek Gods Enemies of Everything: Destroyer Entities from various mythologies Ennead Dynasty: Egyptian Gods First Weapons: Angels and other primordial beings from all over Aborted Ones: Cthulhu and his cohorts

I'd love to hear about the origins of the Jotunns and more greek primordial deities like Ouranos and Thanatos. Maybe the Hindu Trimurti, and Celtic, Baltic, Slavic gods could be pretty interesting. I'd also like to see more Aztec given Quetzalcoatl and Tezcatlipoca are there. Is Xipe Totec the Flayed Prince? And I wonder where Huitzilopochtli and Ometeotl are. Also I remember in an old post that you said that angelic weapons were used by the Intelligence to destroy Aborted Ones and Proto-Infernals. I'd love to see some of these "proto-infernals" and how they came to be if they're still cannon.
