Be careful of the moon!

Roselle Gustav in his Diary
on Lord of Mysteries, Chapter 790

The Mother Goddess of Depravity is one of the Outer Deities interfering with the Earth. "She" is also known as the Primordial Moon, The Great Mother, the Sovereign of the Physical World and the Mother of All Things. "She" has been occupying the Earth's Moon since the First Epoch, terraforming it to the Crimson Moon. "She" is the first child of The Original Creator, one of the most powerful Outer Deities, and the ruler of all feminine power of the Cosmos.[1] "She" is the original owner of the Mother and Moon pathways characteristics and the corresponding Sefirah: the Brood Hive. "She" is also the current Deity of the Chaos Primogenitor pathway.

"She" is the Sovereign of the Physical World, one of the Three Pillars that are the foundation for the universe’s maintenance and development.[2] When The Original Creator split into pieces, "He" created a force strong enough to tear the Sefirot apart. Part of "Her" Sefirah was torn from "Her" and became the Brood Hive, which was attracted to Earth along with the Moon and Mother characteristics "She" held. Then the Mother Goddess of Depravity became not much different from the other Outer Deities, but still with the symbol of Pillar on "Her".

Besides the Mother Goddess of Depravity "Herself", the Mother Tree of Desire, and the Son of Chaos being directly born from The Original Creator, the remaining Outer Deities were all born from the union of the Mother Goddess of Depravity and The Original Creator. "They" are the first beings created by "Her", granting "Her" the title of the true Mother of All Things.[2]

"She" is said to have a conflict with the Mother Tree of Desire, but "They" have also cooperated.[3][4]

    • The Indestructible: Reality is the foundation of the universe. Unless everything ended, reality would eternally exist. Thus, the soul and the body of Mother Goddess of Depravity possessed the characteristic of Indestructibility, never to perish.[8]
      • "She" could only perish by:
        • Encounter with the The Original Creator, who could make the impossible happen.[9]
        • The emergence of Fourth Pillar symbolizing the end of everything. [9]
        • Overextending the Chaos Primogenitor's unique symbolism. [9]
    • As long as "She" wishes, "She" cannot be displaced or Sealed.[8] "She" can transform into a colossal, ethereal oak tree, rooted deeply in reality, supporting the heavens, and intertwining "Herself" with the fabric of the real universe. Being firmly rooted in reality, unable to be Banished or Sealed.[9]

      • To avoid Lumian Lee's exploitation of the mystical law of similarity, the Mother Goddess of Depravity underwent Rebirth.[9]
    • Souls, consciousness, spirits, intellect, and Beyonder powers are among the things that can be given New Life.
    • "Her" symbolic nature would continue to influence the surrounding area even when "She" hesitates to attack due to other entities' influences, such as Charm, from the Calamity of Destruction.[10]
    • The symbolism of New Life has immensely powerful healing properties, "She" can quickly heal "Her" and other Great Old Ones' wounds.[9][13][14]
      • Only certain symbols and concepts would weaken the effectiveness of New Life, these include but are not limited to the symbol of Destruction[14] and the power of Termination.[16]
    • "She" can "fix" mystical connections, spirits, and consciousness, among other things, in place, disrupting interference and influences from other entities. This is symbolized as an illusory, slightly damaged oak tree.
  • Chaos Primogenitor: "She" possesses a unique symbol pointing to The Original Creator. "She" is the Nurturer of the Chaos Primogenitor - the Original Sin and The Original Creator of the next universe.[10][18]
    • "She" can only summon this being once every Major Month (2,160 years); if "She" borrowed this special symbolism for less than 2,160 years, the Chaos Primogenitor would truly descend into the real world - a devastating catastrophe to "Her".[18]
    • Invoking this unique symbolism would put "Her" in a state of prolonged weakness that cannot be recovered using New Life.[9]
    • The Mother Goddess of Depravity used this symbolism to forcefully accommodate the rebelling Brood Hive[7][19]. "Her" use of the Chaos Primogenitor symbolism also shattered the Astral Barrier that originated from The Original Creator, as if its original master had recalled it.[18]
  • Beauty: "She" is the symbol of beauty in the universe, radiating an unmistakable maternal brilliance. Even "Her" enemies would hesitate to strike at "Her". This makes "Her" a less likely target of Malice.[10]
  • Death and Desolation: "She" can influence other entities to wither, collapsing into death and returning to the embrace of Mother Earth.

Appearance[]

"She" occupies the moon and interferes with the earth through the identity of Primordial Moon. It appeared that the moon had a crimson sea flowing on its surface. It appears to be drowning everything, as though it was digesting this huge natural satellite. This blood-colored sea boiled when Klein learned about the news of "Great Old Ones", "Outer Deities", and "Cosmos".[20]

When Amon repelled "Her" power using the First Blasphemy Slate, the crimson moon appeared in the sky. The color quickly faded and turned pure. On it was a huge, distorted, crimson figure.[21]

It was as if countless birthing organs were haphazardly piled together, with swirling smoke and crimson moonlight intertwining to form an accretion-disk-like extension that served as clothing.

Yet, this massive figure had a head resembling that of a human woman. Her features - facial structure, long brown hair, and crimson eyes - were flawless, embodying the very concept of "beauty". She was the symbol of beauty in the universe, radiating an unmistakable maternal brilliance.

History[]

Lord of Mysteries[]

Mother Goddess of Depravity[]

The Mother Goddess of Depravity was created by the Original Creator. As a Creation of the Original Creator, "She" is most affected by the Law of Convergence, and part of "Her" characteristics was attracted to Earth. Due to this, "She" is able to have a direct influence over the Pathways "She" owned.

When the Original Creator split into pieces, "Her" Moon Symbol2 Moon and Mother Symbol2 Mother characteristics and some parts of "Her" Sefirah were torn and fell to Earth.

Primordial Moon[]

"She" is worshiped by certain factions namely some members of the Life School of Thought and Rose School of Thought. Sanguines worship their Ancestor Lilith, however, their prayers sometimes go to Primordial Moon due to the overlap of authority; while many Moon Pathway Beyonders worship Primordial Moon. Worshipers usually simply refer to "Her" as the Moon.

According to Emlyn, people who pray to "Her" mostly experience change, turning cruel, crazy, and even filled with desire. Praying to the moon has caused a powerful sanguine to turn into "a hunk of flesh that only knows to mate and reproduce. She, together with bulls, rams, stallions, mice, and even plants and rocks, gave birth to one strange descendant after another".[22] Worshipers also hold violent rituals to produce puppets that absorb the power of the crimson moon.

Mr. Door has suggested a few times that Roselle should visit the moon, and indicated that the moon has answers to many things. Roselle heeded his advice and was corrupted during his visit.[23]

It is also suspected by Klein that she is responsible for corrupting Roselle.[24] This was later confirmed.[25]

After the corruption, Roselle created the Cards of Blasphemy that possess high-level anti-divination and anti-prophecy abilities. Roselle told Klein to be wary of the Mother Card since it has a trap set by "Her". Roselle also warned that when all 22 Cards of Blasphemy are collected, something bad will happen which is most likely caused by "Her" influence.[25]

Circle of Inevitability[]

"She" possesses the authority of the Chaos Primogenitor Pathway and is worshipped by various factions under the name "The Great Mother". Some believe that all creatures in the world are the children of the Great Mother. They were directly transformed from the flesh and blood of the Great Mother.[26]

After The Day of Many Disasters, the Mother Goddess of Depravity had descended onto Earth and aimed for the Brood Hive in the Western Continent. The Fool exploited "Her" instinctual desire, lured "Her" to breach the Celestial Worthy’s barrier sealing the Western Continent, then reinforced the seal; while the Western Continent’s Celestial Master and others continued burning Their life forces and utilizing the powers of the Sefirot to sustain the barrier for almost a year. But even those measures are nearing their limit. Two months ago, the Mother Goddess of Depravity captured the Brood Hive within the gray-white fog sealing the Western Continent. The Brood Hive yearns to see "Its" eldest daughter, Omebella, truly reborn, but "It" resists re-merging with the Mother Goddess of Depravity. At present, the Mother Goddess of Depravity and the Brood Hive are locked in a tug-of-war. Both the World of Ruins and the Western Continent have attained a fleeting peace, with only the naturally dissipating forces and maternal symbolism still exerting their effects.[27]
