Hey all! Gels here, and I'm bringing you a new character. This is Coyolxauhqui, Aztec Goddess of the Moon and the Milky Way, baddie extraordinaire, and avid stamp skull collector. She's most famous for trying to kill her pregnant mother and unborn brother - the same brother who just so happened to jump on out of his mother fully grown before ( Read more... )

Badass. It makes me bizarrely happy to see a Mesoamerican deity in play. (Because really ... and I thought I played obscure characters.)

(If I had to guess on the pronunciation, based on my extremely limited knowledge of Nahuatl: co-yo-showl-ki? I have no idea where the accents go, though. And I'm sure Malcolm will come up with some nickname that's suitable dreadful.)

(You do play obscure characters. :D Don't worry, I'm not trying to beat you at your own game.)

And yep, you totally got it. I am so very, very pleased. Also...dear god, I hope Malcolm has some fun ones.

(It's a very silly game, if it is one. ^_^)

I may or may not have had a major jones for Mesoamerican civilisations when I was an adolescent. Somewhat more with the Inca than the Aztec (mostly due, in fact, to the animated series Mysterious Cities of Gold). And I apologise in advance for any of Malc's nicknames that are hideously politically incorrect, because there will be some.

I'm still kind of a Mesoamerican dork now. I had this little Aztec warrior sticker a professor gave to me stuck to a notebook, and when I filled the notebook I couldn't bear to part with the sticker....so I ripped out the page and have it tacked to my wall. Dork dork dork.

....I'll probably laugh at Malc's horrible nicknames, so that probably means I'm a terrible person.

I can completely relate to this.

And I'm the one who somehow comes up with the nicknames, so that probably makes me pretty terrible too. Honestly, some of the things Malcolm says, I don't know where the hell they come from.

They come from somewhere deep inside of you that's a politically incorrect spot of brilliance. Clearly.

Incorrect, definitely. Brilliance is debatable. ^_^
