I'm back in school. And though the faces may have changed, the problems are still the same. ps Rot is an ASSHOLE

Sorry if I didn't post anything sooner like I said I would for those who follow my YouTube page.   Anyway college has started back up again for me (yay) Any who I'm taking elementary Spanish 2 and world lit 1 every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.  Which means I'll have Tuesdays and Thursdays to do as I please.  So far I'm really enjoying my classes.  But the best part of coming back to college, getting to see all my dear friends.

Also Rot was screwing with my dreams this past week.  I don't feel like going into too much detail about what the dreams are about but he's still trying his tactic of making me remember her when I really don't fucking want to and he's getting really aggressive about it as well.  Thankfully this weeks sleep has been a bit better thanks to Skan telling me about special herbs that help with dealing with rot.  Thanks skan, I owe you one.

I haven't seen the Rake since I got him drunk on absinthe. Hopefully I'll have more absinthe and rue oil for when he does come back.  Like I said many times before I have a plan.

Guess that's all I have to say for now.

Stay safe everyone

Absinthe, New plan of action, and some strange dreams

So my weekend was interesting.  I got to see what the Rake was like tipsy,  But I'm getting ahead of myself let's start from the beginning yes?

Last week me and Skan where discussing different ways to some how get rue(an herb that the Rake has a strong dislike for) into the Rake's system somehow. That's when I got the idea to use Absinthe a very strong alcoholic beverage that just happens to have wormwood in it.  Wormwood has the opposite effect on the Rake instead of running for the hill like what rue would do to him, apparently wormwood is in a sense like Rake-nip. Anyway my idea is to soak some raw meat in rue oil and absinthe, but first I wanted to see if absinthe would attract the Rake.  Now I know what some of you are saying"But Faustus Absinthe is hard to get and very expensive."  However I was able to find some absinthe albeit not the good kind but absinthe none the less. (and yes it was expensive)  Normally I could go on and on about alcohol but I'm getting off topic.  Time to start talking about my findings of what happens when the Rake drinks absinthe.

Date: August 13th.

I set a dish of absinthe out for the Rake that in an area where I cloud watch the Rake's reaction to The Absinthe. the Rake came around my property around 8:00 pm or so.  The Rake was doing his usual schtick of leaving me dead animals then it sniffed the air and noticed the dish with absinthe and started to greedily drink the stuff up.  After drank the absinthe he just sat there for a little while then he stood up rather clumsily and proceeded to fall flat on his ass.  I'm not going to lie seeing the thing that's been menacing me for awhile now was a pretty funny sight.  after that little display of clumsiness the Rake left.

Strange dreams have been plaguing my sleep since august 3rd  and another dream that was related to slender man on  August 8th.

Dream from august 3rd
I was walking around in the back fields of were I live when I saw a creature with long legs, walked on all fours, and was super tall. At first I thought is was slender man but slender man isn't covered with hair. It then looked at me then it looked at the wooded area then stared back at me for what seemed like five minutes. That's when I heard the sound of a low pitched siren and this creature ran off.  Each time I had this dream It seemed like I was getting closer to this creature.  The last time I dreamed about this creature I was so close to it I could smell it.  It smelled like the woods during winter time.  This time when it ran off i tried to chase after it but I trip over a rock or something and I remember I was help up by what looked like a plague doctor.  The Plague Doctor then told me to be a little more careful.  That was the last time I had the dream.


Drawing from the dream:







Dream from August 8th:
I remember that Noah was at my house for some reason and so was some nameless women. We were all in my parents room talking about something. what that something was I can't really remember. The the bedpost of my parents bed post turned into slender Man. Noah and the unnamed woman ran out of the room. The Next thing I know I was holding a pellet gun and was ready to take on Slender man. then I woke to the sound of my cell phone's alarm.  In hindsight using a pellet would not be very effective against an eldritch abomination, no?  
anyway here's a drawing from the dream.






On a much lighter note Shady's back from her Adventure with Victor. (Yay)


Well I guess that all I have to say for now.

New info, an ambush, and a new little friend.

Alright so the good news is it wasn't a trap and I got some information.  The bad news is me and the person  who was giving me the info were ambushed by a third party.  So for the sake of keep myself and my informant safe I will refer to him just as that. Anyway on to what happened. 

I left my home to make the journey to my informant's location sometime mid afternoon.  The trip up there was actually pretty nice aside from the fact that there's a heat wave going on. When I finally made it to the address that was on the letter I found that it was a the home of a man who looked to be in his early fifties who welcomed me inside with open arms. After I came inside he told me the origin of the being who calls himself Rot.

*****During the 14th century a group of occultists who's name was lost to time attempted to summon something into our plain of existence in a vain attempt to gain unearthly power.  However this group only succeeded half way with the deaths of most of the members of this group but five.  The Being that they summoned into our world was only existed in between the material world and the spirit world.  The being had a long almost bird like nose, eyes with out color in the irises, and black hair that seemed to be receding.  This being introduced itself as Rot.  The five people who didn't die because of the botched ceremony had a much worse fate in store  for them.  Rot like I said before only existing partially in the material world placed his hand on each of the surviving members heads with promises of untold power,  however everything has a price.  The price that some of them paid was with their lives.  one member was reported to have been committed to an insane asylum where he eventually chewed through his own tongue and bleed to death. The following was written on his cell wall in his blood that read: Too WEAK!  Another surviving member killed his family in a fit of blind rage  then died of what appeared to be a heart attack.  When the police went to investigate the scene of the murder, on the wall of the home were the murder took place the following was written: STILL NOT GOOD ENOUGH!***** 

That's around the time me and my informant heard the sound of a car pulling into his drive way and a look of dread appeared upon my informants face.  He began to panic, he rushed me out the back door of his home and told me to run for it.  At first I didn't understand what was going on until he pulled out a gun and told me if I didn't run he'd give me some incentive to.  At that point I took off running.  I don't think I've ever run that fast in my life but at the same time I think I should have stayed behind and help the old man.  I finally made back home with no one following me but who else should I see in the backyard of my house but The Rake and he looked like he had something cornered. At first I thought it was another rabbit but it wasn't it was a little black and white kitten.  At that point I sneaked to the herd garden and garbed a little bit of rue.  Then I sneaked behind the Rake and made him Rue the day he ever messed with a cat in my presences.  All I did was I taped on his back with the rue, he quickly turned around saw the rue in my hand, let out an ear splitting scream, and took off running.  Oh the plans I have for rue.  Anyway I went to check on the kitten and he looked like he was unharmed by the rake thankfully.  Needless to say I've pretty much adopted the little fellow and I've taken to calling him Sebastian.  (don't ask were the name came from) 

  I think I might as well tell you all the plan I have for the Rue oil.  I plan on using the rue oil to clean my bladed weapons with hopefully to give them some of the same evil fearing powers as the rue itself.  Hopefully this should work.

Sorry this took me so long to get posted.

Stay safe

My minds made up.

I've decided to go to the area that was mention in the letter I got on August 2nd.  But I'm also bringing some smoke bombs, SC, and a knife just in case this is some kind of trap.  Though I'm not sure who would want to trap someone like me.  At any rate I'll be off to the location sometime tomorrow.  Well wish me luck and hopefully I'll have new info on Rot. 

Also on an unrelated note I think I may try to use the infusion on some rue with oil. I have a plan for the next time I see the Rake.

Til next time, Stay safe.

Good news

I'm back again with a bit of good news.  I think I may have found the herd that attracted The rake in to the herb garden from my fourth blogpost. 

Date: Saturday, July 30th.  Time: around one in the afternoon.

As usual for almost every Saturday I went outside to do some yard work with some liquified spicy concoction in a spray bottle just in case Mr. Long Sharp claws decided to show his face.  For the most part all my work went on with out a problem until I went to do some trimming in my family's garden.  When I entered the garden I saw who else but the Rake trying to chase a poor rabbit possibly to make a meal out if it.  Now I know a lot of you reading are going to call me an idiot for what I did but darn it I couldn't just let the Rake hurt the rabbit.  Anyway me being me threw a rock at the humaniod abomination to draw it's attention away from the rabbit.  Good news was the rabbit was safe, the bad news I was now on the menu.  Unfortunatly for that poor bastard I had a little surprise for him.  Needless to say He found out what that little surprise was the hard way(the best way for him)  And once again I heard the Rake's horrible cries of pain and to be honest part of me was taking pleasure in it.  I was about to spray him again to show him who's the boss around here until he swiped at the hand that was holding the spray bottle and in the process cutting my hand.  And yeah it friggin hurt.  It was around that time that I decide to book it back inside the house with the Rake following close behind. I was able to make it to the back porch door and once again the Rake seemed drawn to an herb in the herb garden and was once again spooked by something and ran off. That's when I took the opportunity to find out what attracted the rake to the herbs.  Turns out it was a wormwood herb that was attracting the Rake.  But more importantly I also found out what spooked him. The herb Rue.

Also another bit of news regarding Rot.  Yesterday afternoon I found a letter someone put in my mail box with no return address.  The Letter said," I you want more information on Rot please come to the following address.  Please try to get here by six days time or what information I have for you will be lost."  That was all the letter said.  I may be a nerd but I'm not stupid  If I'm going up to this area I'm going to be prepared.

 Well I'm going to think this through though I may go.  After all knowledge is a weapon.

Stay safe
