If you have seen horror movies featuring paranormal entities and demons, you likely know that the inverted cross is often associated with them and viewed as a demonic mark

However, this belief (held by many, including Christians) is completely false

The symbol is actually the Cross of Saint Peter; it represents how Peter (one of Jesus's apostles) asked the Romans to crucify him upside down, as he did not consider himself worthy to die in the same manner as the Messiah

It is striking how a false myth transformed a symbol associated with martyrdom and humility into something entirely different

(Fun fact: The effects of the shield movements were created BY HAND)

This is the (prototype) Map of the Continent Of Ruina

This Continent is the main location of an Fantasy/Post-Apocalyptic/Dieselpunk World Building Project called “Wars Of Ruina”

If you have any question about the Lore, please leave it in the comments

This is something I've noticed in certain corners of the internet: people "criticize" a series based solely on whether or not it takes a stance on Israel and/or Judaism, completely ignoring the actual content (whether it's even political or not), the context, the pros and cons, and so on

All this crap is exactly like the whole "woke" vs. "anti-woke" thing, except (in my opinion) it's even more toxicbecause if you don't agree with them, they say "THEY" brainwashed you

I can understand this narrative in VERY specific cases, but most of the time when I encounter this argument, it looks more like political shit than a valid argument (one of the ones I remember most is in a community post by a YouTuber talking about why he didn't like the Invincible chapter where he goes to Hell)

Even as someone who is openly opposed to Israel and Netanyahu, this kind of nonsense is some of the most shallow stuff I've ever seen

I hope this “trend” dies soon beacuse is just a big piece of shit

I have always wondered if there is somtehing outside Cvstodia, like other Dieties, Kingdoms, Mosnters, etc. is there any information about that?

(PD: I didn’t play Blasphemous 2 so IDK if there is more Lore about that)

The Combined Army - Infinity A Corvus Belli

The Combine Empire - Half Life 2

Ellos - El Eternauta

Context: EC Noir is a World Building project inspired by Spec Ops The Line and Shadows Of Doubt

The story takes place in Elysium City, a prosperous mining town on Planetoid HX-94819301D in the Sisterma Oberon. A quiet place where there are always job opportunities, accessible homes, safety on the streets and in general one of the best cities to live in on the Eastern Border of the Empire and if you move here it is because you ate the propaganda in the moving brochure

The sad reality is that Elysium is a city divided by internal conflicts, corrupt politicians who only look after their interests and a police force that is in charge of defending the rich and powerful and not the common citizens (and that for the lucky ones who are lucky enough to live in the 12 Districts, since in the underground ghettos in the mines that served as the basis for the founding of the city they are governed by the most absolute anarchy)

It is in this context that the protagonist (who I still haven't decided who he will be), a veteran of the Border War, decided to become a private detective to solve the crimes of a city consumed by crime and corruption...

Context: this is the lore of a fantasy world that I make inspired by Warhammer Fantasy, Age Of Sigmar, AFK Journey, Genshin Impact, Elden Ring, Dark Souls, God Of War (Norse saga), Conquest, etc.

Basically in this world, the Dwarves have an ancient enmity that dates back to the times of the
Empire of the First Dawn, started after the Elves reduced all the domains of the world to ashes.
Dwarf Kingdom of Arun'nn'ward (one of the largest and most prosperous Dwarf Kingdoms in all of Dwarven history and a former close ally of the Elves)

Their enmity is such that the Dwarves were not very fans of Bows as they were primarily a weapon.
associated with the Elves. However, knowing that they needed long-distance weapons, the Mountain King (Mokni Arun'tyr) hired the best Engineer Clans to create a more "Dwarven" long-range weapon, the result was the creation of the first rifles using inspired weapons from the East, these weapons were so good that even some armies such as those of the Empire began to use them.

Although they did not stop there, over time the Dwarves began to improve the design to the point that they created much more complex weapons that are use by the Dwarven Infantery
