Nocticula: What are "the glories of midnight"?


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


"A small number of heretics venerate her as well, not as a demigoddess of murder and lust but as one of outcasts, artists, and the glories of midnight. The fact that such heretical clerics are granted spells as surely as the rest of her worshipers has caused not a small amount of discontent among her faithful, which Nocticula seems to enjoy."

So what exactly does the "glories of midnight" mean? Has this ever been explained?

I think it's pretty much just talking about fun stuff that happens after midnight.

Yes, if you've ever reveled in late night you would understand.

It could also be a metaphorical midnight: the balancing point between dusk and dawn, the time the sun is on the opposite side of the planet, a transition that takes place in the dark, etc.

When else would you hear owls calling, or witness an aurora in full glory...

I hate to assume but given that she is a demon lord of succubus I always thought it meant sex. That or midnight snacking.

I think it's this. I would ask James Jacobs in his thread, but it's closed for right now.

The glories of midnight? They're her backup band.


Backup band? That's a much better alternative to my first instinct for evil revels at midnight: Taco Bell.

Watching late night re-runs of Golden Girls in your underwear while eating ice cream right out of the carton.

Man, that reminds me, I gotta turn off my webcam...


Bar crawls. At least until 2:00 AM. Or playing Skyrim all night.

Nocticula's servants are cooking your food in back.


I think this should sum it up.
