Tobias Forge - Blog Posts
Fully obsessed with the concept of Copia. He's over fifty years old. He's a gamer. His arrival coincides with the death of every previous Papa like he's the bringer of the bubonic plague. He rides little tricycles around the Ministry. He's apparently a professional dancer as well as being the vocalist for a metal band but has a Charisma of 8. He's pathetic (canon). He's literally the Satanic Pope. He loves his mom. He's kind of a bitch. He wears tracksuits with dress shoes. Tobias hates him but is chronically incapable of killing him off because he serves so much cunt. I really can't decide if I want to be this man or be inside him
I'm laicized
Emotional at work and probably (most definitely) way too deep into this whole thing, but... Papa V seems a lot like Tobias making peace with the past and the unpleasant things (lawsuit, near failure of the project therefore) in the past.
Where Copia was initially the anger, spite and disappointment he felt, until he grew on him and turned into something/someone so positive and warm - a really wonderful turn and message in itself -, putting a very harsh end to the previous era(s), implementing a lot of new visuals... Papa V does the opposite.
We get Primos glittery robe front, Secondos staff in the artwork, Terzos purple and claws (and parts of the face paint) and Copias chest jewelry and cape style.
It feels like Tobias made peace with it and is, kind of, reclaiming these parts? And honoring the past Papas in a wonderful (and super cunty) way.
And I absolutely love it.
(again, I'm probably reading way too much into it, sue me, I'm emotional about my Swedish satanic comfort band)
I love this band so much. Just watched RHRN yesterday and loved it.
The band Ghost is so fucking funny to me. Their frontman currently looks like this:
Or some version of a horny goth clown, but the guy underneath it has got the wettest saddest eyes I've ever seen. Just look at him:
This man admits to being very sensitive and cries at the drop of a hat.
He has a wife and kids.
He wears the costume because he doesn't like the way he looks on stage as a rockstar.
He treats the audience like his children. They're officially called the children of Ghost for that and also because of the play on "children of god."
The band literally fucks around on stage while riffing this badass music. They go through physical comedy skits every concert like the three stooges. For example:
Two demons throw guitar picks at each other when they get angy.
One guy grinds and licks the stage like a cat in heat.
One of them shakes their tits at goth clown man and scares him shitless.
One of them twirls goth clown man like a ballerina as he dances by them.
Several of them slap goth clown's ass when he waddles by.
He created the band to make people happy, to celebrate being a fucking weirdo because he always felt left out, and to make fun of Christianity because it makes people feel bad. He lost his older brother, and it tore him up so bad that the music he made as a result launched him into a worldwide music career.
This man ends every concert "ritual" with three things:
1. Be nice to each other
2. Help each other
3. Go fuck yourself
(Literally and figuratively)
Their music is 70% "fuck me I'm so horny", 10% "I love you so much" and 20% "ethereal badass metal".
Look at how much fun he's having, dude.
It's literally just a rock band filled with the nicest people on earth wearing costumes like a Shakespearean play. And all they do is make up funny little lore stories and serve cunt.

As I said before I'm big fan of @thebandghostofficial. I've been listening to this band for several years now, back when Copia was performing on stage in his red suit. He made me fall in love with him forever, and the music clip about RATS became one of the very first from Ghost that I saw. Tobias' vocals touch your soul, the band's songs get better with each album, and my interest never wanes, I love this lore and all the characters.
I hope we see Copia again. I'm not ready to let him go.
Me, literally

Bonus Cardinal Copia under the cut:
The third rider looks cool
WHY IS THIS SO IMAGINABLE? 😭😭
Tobias said in a Swedish interview that he likes to listen to Swedish music when he relaxes because there aren’t that many people he can be Swedish with on tour and now I’m thinking about him and Per hanging out speaking Swedish and listening to ABBA and Gyllene Tider and it’s so cute ?????
Went to the Ghost concert in Munich and noticed something…

he's such a weird lil guy
hello people I have risen just as jesus and I have some doodles to post.
silly little cardi sketches and practices
my personal take on the matter of the lore is that it's not at all a bad thing-
the lore was never *that* big of a part of the band itself as a musical thing, just crumbs of info connected by us devoted fans. the new papa, perpetua, to me, seems like another one of tobias' alternate personalities like mary goore seemed to be back then. just a mask for a performance, because that's what ghost already did. so if he stays, he stays, I love the music.
and tobias ending the lore doesn't mean *we* can't continue it. most of it is already just headcanons, even the band members names were made up by the following. like every mocie/book/story/whatever, the lore will probably have a whole ending.
so personally, while it did seem drastic at first, it really isn't that tragic *in my opinion* (feel free to disagree!)
