quintessence ghouls !

I have been itching to…design all the ghouls. I have a lot of headcanons and ideas for their different elements and roles and i thought some of you might appreciate! Also changed aethers design a little from my last post!

More details/notes/headcanons under the cut!

quintessence ghoul headcanons 🫣

-all ghouls are nocturnal to a certain degree, but quintessence ghouls thrive the most at night!

- they have dark eyes with light pupils that capture and reflect light

-quintessence ghouls are rather calm and responsible, often forming the more emotionally inteligent and balanced core of the pack

-quintessence magick: soothing and stimulating. Cannot be used to heal wounds but can enhance recovery and be used as a pain repressor. Can also be used to heighten or lower sensory stimulation.

A digitally drawn comic about made up lore for the nameless ghouls from the band ghost. The top panel reads “on summoning ghouls, a rite of passage for becoming Papa”. Under the title is a line up of four nameless ghoul masks from the various eras. From left to right the first is faceless and angular, the second is angular with eye holes and a large nose and chin, the third looks like a stereotypical devil with small curved horns and slicked back hair, and the fourth one is a stylized leather gas mask with tubes, horns, large eye lenses, and chin straps.

The second panel is a pair of eyes with black makeup around them, the right eye lighter, behind a book with the alchemical element symbols on it. It reads “it starts with a will and your judgement”.

The second comic page where the top panel is a stone chamber with two summoning circles, one on the floor with alchemical element symbols and the other on the wall being blank, flanked by two stone half-walls that have empty basins and grucifixes on them. The text reads “a specialized chamber is necessary, 1) to avoid interference, 2) to prevent escape”.

On the bottom panel, cardinal copia from the band ghost is standing on the other side of the chamber room looking very nervous and holding the book from the first page. He’s wearing the ministry cardinal robes and grucifix.

The third page where the top panel has an array of a bunch of nameless ghouls drawn as raw elemental demons for the various types (some made up) that in a clockwise starting from the bottom left are fire, light, water, quintessence/mercury, air, electricity/plasma, shade, and earth. The text reads “After all; feral ghouls are raw elements”.

The bottom panel has the fire ghoul from the previous one now lunging towards cardinal copia with rage, a huge fire consuming the room as two prequelle era ghouls behind him are helping him. One is using quintessence mercury and the other is sparking with lightning.

The fourth page that on the top has the alchemical symbols for the various elements with text that reads “each element has a diversity of strengths and rarity, and the first ghoul summoned sets precedent for how a leader is perceived.”

The bottom has a lineup of each of the first summoned ghouls for each papa from 1 to 4 with their respective style of grucifixes. The first papa’s ghoul is a fire type wearing the blank angular mask and cult-like robes swirling with flames. The second is an earth type wearing the angular face mask with cult-like robes surrounded by sharp rocks and floating stones. The third is quintessence or mercury wearing the silver devil-esque mask with suit-like cult robes who has swirling liquid mercury metal sparkling around him. The fourth is an electric/plasma ghoul wearing the apocalyptic gas-mask soldier like uniform, the only one posing holding up the devil mask with the mouth cut out while grinning mischievously. He’s surrounded by arcs of lightning lighting him up.

The fifth page on the top panel reads “freshly coronated & nervous” and has copia now coronated as the fourth papa looking nervously over his shoulder at nameless ghoul swiss behind him wearing the prequelle uniform, holding up papa’s cloak for him as he walks with his hands folded together in the sleeves. Swiss is smiling eagerly with text that reads “being encouraging”. Behind swiss are nameless ghouls sodo and aether drawn small, sodo saying “kiss ass” as aether says “be nice”. The text above them reads “additionally, the first is the personal servant and an important assistant for life”.

The bottom panel has a set of mini drawings, the top showing a mini feral fire ghoul breathing fire and burning cardinal copia to the cartoonish crisp and the bottom showing the mini fire ghoul being held by liquid mercury while be zapped by two prequelle era ghouls helping cardinal copia. Copia on the bottom is grimacing and holding the book towards the fire ghoul’s face. The text reads “often times assistance is needed for future summoning, but a limit of 2 maintains respect to show you’re still capable.

The sixth page top panel has cardinal copia facing the summoning wall from before now, looking nervous and holding the book open with a grucifix rosary hanging off his hand as he gazes at a feral water ghoul leaking out of the now open summoning wall portal. The basins on the half walls have water pouring out of them as well. The text reads “however, they must accept- you must earn their respect, and they only choose if willing.

The bottom panel shows two scenarios with silhouettes of cardinal copia with the summoning wall, the left showing the feral ghoul leaving closing the portal that is dripping leftover water and smoking as he reaches towards it with dismay. The right shows the water ghoul lunging forward with a torrential flood of water wrapping copia, who holds his arms out in horror as he yells. The text reads “and they are not always willing”.

The seventh page on top has a line up of the papas as younger cardinals being prepared for their ghoul summoning trials, in order of first to fourth from left to right. In order it shows young primo with younger nihil by his shoulder, looking proud at a confused and wary cardinal primo holding the summoning book. Young secondo has the book open now looking confused as the now papa primo glares at nihil over secondo’s shoulders, nihil giving a questioning look. Young terzo is hunched over with rage, clenching his teeth in a scowl as he lets the summoning book fall open and crumples a page in his tense hands; secondo by his shoulder is holding his cardinal hat looking apologetic as behind them primo watches nihil walking away with his back turned. Finally, young copia is standing with the book held to his chest with fear as he’s comforted by a proud looking sister imperator. The text under them all reads “one must be prepared to face hell itself”.

The bottom panel shows two hands hovering over a glowing white orb that reads “to prove one is worthy to take the stage, controlling the Devil’s magic is key.

The eighth page’s top panel has the summoning book fluttering open with the alchemical element symbols arching over it, the text on top reading “it’s important to roll the dice and summon a variety” with the other text also arching over the book reading “but one may only tame as many as the power of their sin allows”.

The bottom panel shows the papas all lined up one to four from left to right. Primo is looking away with a leaf blowing by him with a scowl as both secondo and terzo are side-eyeing copia, secondo sweating with concern while terzo glares in disbelief at copia who is whistling nervously with his arms behind his back looking away. The text reads “which, naturally, varies” showing the number of ghouls each papa summoned from left to right being 5 for the previous 3 and 8 for copia. Next to copia is mini heads of all his ghouls.

The ninth page with only one panel now shows a highly rendered ghoul from terzo’s era with the silver devil mask holding up a syringe in reference to the ghost band chapters, the syringe’s tip gleaming menacingly. Behind him, copia’s ghouls rain and sodo are looming with menacing shadowed faces as well. The text reads “and while loyal as determined by one’s rank… Remember: the ministry comes first.”

The tenth page now a bonus to the original comic is titled “ghoul records broken by copia” that has swirling filigree with the prequelle and impera nameless ghoul masks sitting under it. The prequelle mask is the silver devil mask with the mouth cut out while the impera mask is the leather gas-mask.

The eleventh page top panel reads “Record: most ghouls summoned at one time: 8, 10 including past members”. Copia as papa and his ghouls are drawn in a cute mini form, papa in the center looking tired but content despite it. On the left clockwise from the top left are cirrus running forward happily, cumulus waving her cape grinning mincingly, swiss posing with hands up and beaming a smile, and aurora also waving her cape as she sways with a happy smile. On the right from top left clockwise, mountain is waving his arms to both sides with a small smile, phantom is posing with a hand on his hip kicking one leg out with his other arm, ran is posed with legs stanced and hands on his hips looking sleepy, and sodo is kicking a leg up raising his fist on the opposite side looking feisty.

The bottom panel reads “record: most obedient first summon for an amateur”. Cardinal copia is hunched holding the summoning book, quivering in fear saying a shaky “h-hello?” as he points a timid finger at swiss in a prequelle ghoul uniform. Swiss has a nice suit on with the open devil mask, grinning and whistling confidently as his thought bubble reads “he’s so pathetic, I have to see how this turns out”. Behind him is his feral form shown with a huge smile made of electricity pointing with an arrow to show he transformed.

The twelfth page top panel reads “Record: most powerful summons, 2 s-class ghouls”. The top left has feral sodo as a dark silhouette with a pointy jack-o-lantern like smile beaming eerily as flames surround and pour off him, including dripping from his mouth. The alchemical symbol for fire is on his forehead. The text around him reads “all consuming hell fire, AKA “sodo” or “dew”. On the right feral cumulus ghoulette is holding her hands forward, made of a swirling storm cloud with more swirling cloud coming out of her palms as her whole body is rotating like a storm; her mouth is opened in a devious smile that is connected in some places top to bottom. The alchemical symbol for air is on her chest, and the text around her reads “Hurricane from Hades, AKA “cumulus”.

The bottom panel reads “Record: most elemental offshoots summoned, 3”. From left to right are nameless ghouls swiss, aurora, and sunshine that in order have elemental symbols for lightning and light. Swiss is waving a hand with a big smile as the other ghouls stand politely smiling as well. Under them text reads “offshoots of” and in order under each are the alchemical symbols for quintessence and fire.

The thirteenth extra for the original comic is titled “ghoul roles” and has a line up from left to right of the first nameless ghouls for each papa in various roles. This includes primo’s ghoul running with books and paper, secondo’s ghoul lurching with rocks around him looking ready to fight, terzo’s ghoul walking confidently with his arms folded and whistling, and finally copia’s ghoul smiling and carrying a mic with it’s wire dragging behind him as he trots along.

The fourteenth page top panel is labeled “assistance” and shows a scene of papa primo sitting at a desk covered in official papers and various items like flowers, a quill, photo frame, lamp and mug that reads “he was #1”. Primo is turning to the left receiving a stack of books and paper saying “grazie” to his nameless ghoul that is bowing slightly in respect. The wall behind them has curtains with a large grucifix.

The bottom panel is labeled “fighting” and has a scene with secondo and his ghoul fighting against an abstracted angel. Secondo in the back is waving his staff glowing with power as his eye also trails energy, his ghoul in front throwing up a defensive rock wall to block the angel’s energy blast. He’s in a fighting defensive stance surrounded by his rocks. The angel is diamond-shaped with floating feathers, wings, rib-like features, and geometric pieces.

The fifteenth and final page top panel is labeled “personal guard” and shows a scene of nameless ghoul omega looming protectively between terzo and two others. Terzo has his back turned to them, but is looking over his shoulder with a hand on his hip smiling earnestly in appreciation. Omega has his arms folded, and is glaring down on the two labelled “unassigned ministry trainee ghouls”. The text next to them reads “they wear a simplified uniform of the era in charge, which changes until assigned”. The two are wearing simplified versions of the Meliora ghoul uniform with the silver devil mask flatter and rounded out to look simpler and less defining. The one in front has their hands together in nervous fear as the other hides behind them also sweating in fear.

The bottom final panel labelled “and of course: performance” has a scene of papa copia playing on stage with the whole band putting on a show under various spot lights. Copia is holding a mic and pointing dramatically into the air as swiss on his left leans back also posing dramatically singing loudly with a standing mic grasped in hand. To the right is sodo leaning back with his guitar, phantom and rain both playing behind him. In the back from left to right are cirrus on her keyboard, cumulus singing with a keyboard, aurora dancing with her cape and a mic, and mountain on the drums.

a disclaimer that reads ‘please don’t use or repost somewhere else’.

Remember how I said I couldn't stop thinking about Ghouls? yeah LOL. Anyways, I finally finished my "Ghoul Guide" which is a comic featuring made up lore about summoning nameless ghouls as well as things about them and their roles!

this by no means is comprehensive of everything I've made up for them, but I'm testing the waters with this comic! if it gets enough love I'll make an additional comic about ghoul origins, element types, and maybe even design non-assigned ghoul outfits for each era costume hehe.

ID in ALT text! transcript for comic text under the cut!

Transcript is numbered for each page the text is for!

A rite of passage for becoming “Papa”, It starts with a will and your judgement

A specialized chamber is necessary, 1) to avoid interference 2) to prevent escape.

After all; feral ghouls are raw elements, And to survive, one must tame them.

Each element has a diversity of strengths and rarity / and the first ghoul summoned sets precedent for how a leader is perceived.

Additionally, the first is the personal servant and an important assistant for life; Often times assistance is needed for future summoning, but a limit of 2 maintains respect to show you’re still capable.

However, they must accept you- you must earn their respect, and they only choose if willing. And they are not always willing.

One must be prepared to face Hell itself. To prove one is worthy to take the stage, controlling the devil’s magic is key.

It’s important to roll the dice and summon a variety, but one may only tame as many as the power of their sin allows, which, naturally, varies.

And while they’re loyal as determined by one’s rank… / Remember: The ministry comes first.

Ghoul records broken by copia.
