[QUOTE="Stormborn, post: 3926451, member: 14041"] This idea has been burrowing around in the back of my brain like some kind of parasite. I think Enki would be a great Chtonic entity. Picture small communities of isolated inbred (Enki is known for his incestuous relationships) cultists, drunk out of their minds on sacramental home made beer (Enki is the god of beer), gathered around an ancient vacuum tube radio tuned to nothing from which pores forth glossolalia (Enki is the confuser of languages) that sends them into ecstatic fits. Their leader, a patriarchal figure who is 'husband' to almost all the women there (including his own daughters), does nothing the hide the small fish-like scales that grow upon his back and upper arms (Enki is depicted as being covered in fish scales) as he leads new 'converts' to a natural spring (the home of Enki is the waters in the depths of the earth) for baptism in the great name of "Inky". When outsiders trespass, or one of his flock goes astray, he calls forth the Gallas - deformed androgynous offspring of the community considered to be blessed by Enki (the galla demons were said to be sexless servants created from the dirt under Enki's fingernails)- or curses them with words of power and wisdom granted him by the great lord Inky. It could do for Appalachian/Ozark Hillbillies what Dagon did for isolated New England fishing towns. [/QUOTE]
