![]() Some are amicable, but most are, shall we say, complicated. Through these boons, you learn that your aunts, uncles, and cousins all have relationships with one another. It’s that every single boon comes with a message to Zagreus from said family member. But what intrigues me the most about boons isn’t just that they can make you more powerful. Their help comes in the form of boons, which are all power-ups that can beef up things like attack speed and defensive capabilities. The roguelike game therefore sees protagonist Zagreus making his way through the stratums of the afterlife, and it’s not long before his extended family on the surface - deities of the Greek pantheon - hear all about his plight. Shouldn’t the prince of the underworld get some freedom, too? While everyone around him insists that Zagreus has it made in the underworld, the spiky-haired rebel has never known anything else. Human souls aren’t allowed to leave for obvious death-related reasons, but Zagreus doesn’t understand why he is relegated to the same fate. Hades, his father, has constructed a tenacious netherworld that’s trapped everyone in it. Zagreus wants to escape the Underworld, but he can’t do it on his own. The coterie of all-mighty gods who oversee heaven and earth succumb to mortal pettiness all the time, and poor Zagreus always gets caught up in it. The other two sketches were done simply to play around with Glowey's anatomy, since it was only depicted sitting down like a deer, one shows it moving forward and the other was meant to be an underwater shot of it swimming.If Hades does one thing well, it’s drama. As you can see, the primary sketch was directly referenced from the only "professional" illustration of the creature. Given the lack of Glowey art here on DA, I figured this little buddy deserved some love, especially considering the only piece of art I could find was rather inaccurate to the witness descriptions. It was always described as being bioluminescent- or "glow-in-the-dark" -giving off a faint green glow, and is presumed to have been an aquatic creature, as there are very few land animals that have that trait and suction cups are not designed for terrestrial locomotion. It had large oval-shaped eyes, a scaley fringe on the back of its neck, and moved on four rubbery flippers that had suction cups on their undersides. Glowey was originally described as being the size of a horse, having fishy scales that blended into smooth dolphin-like skin, a football-shaped head with a squid-like beak and snail-like antennae. After that, any and all information regarding Glowey seemed to disappear, and no more sightings were ever reported. In response to the unexplained sightings, the local sheriff launched an investigation into the incidents only to be halted by mysterious individuals who identified themselves as officials from NASA and the US Air Force. It was first sighted by a grocer who was deer hunting and claimed to have stumbled across the animal, his story was later corroborated by a couple who saw the creature on the side of the road while they were driving along a state route. The strange encounters were preceded by the sighting of a peculiar "fiery object" shooting through the sky that landed about 5 miles from the mountain, there's no direct evidence that the two are related but given the seemingly ironic timeline of events, it's hard not to make a connection between them. Now I don't know if Glowey is a boy or girl or if they even have a gender, but they made headlines back in the early 70's when they were sighted around- you guessed it -Bald Mountain in Washington, USA. ![]() Introducing this paranormal cutie-patootie known as the Crazy Critter of Bald Mountain, or as I like to call it, "Glowey"! Aaand Child-Of-Hades returns to her cryptozoological roots! Boy, it's been a while, hasn't it? Well, nothing like a blast from the past with an all new oddball I just happened across!
