INKTOBER DAY 15 (HELMET): When you have to look imposing yet dapper for that special event, the most dashing haberdasheries recommend the Ceremonial Ritual Helmet!
This heavily adorned piece of military regalia is worn by Holy Tongue Society members as well as ‘Ivrit Revival Movement troops, though usually in parades, pageants and other public celebrations, not during the thick of battle. The helmet imbues wearers with a certain gravitas and dignity that helps them concentrate while preparing to perform speech acts.
The Ceremonial Ritual Helmet comes from two neighboring shoresh roots with a common gematria of 169: קסדה and טקס. The first governs helmets and snails, and the second governs ceremonies, rituals, arrangements and adornments.
INKTOBER DAY 11 (SOUR): The Sour Soup Special is a form of lethal bait that the ruthless serve to monsters, or to their enemies!
The Sour Soup Special was first cooked in a vegetarian restaurant’s wash pit. This dish is a reddish sourdough borscht mixed with rhubarb, pickled veggies and chickpeas. It’s marinated in vinegar, sulfur dioxide and sulfuric acid. A sorrel garnish is added on top, and it’s often served with salted sourdough bread.
After the first swallow, this acidic course usually ulcerates the stomach and and causes heavy internal wounds. Even its sour odor can degenerate the central nervous system, delaying reflexes and depleting strength.
Legend says diners who survive a bowl of this stuff gain acid resistance. Still, you won’t want this for home cooking!
The Sour Soup Special is derived from the חמץ shoresh root and broader family, which deals with sourness, sour soup, acids, oxides, pickles, veggies, chickpeas, rhubarb, vinegar, wounding, degeneration, delays and more. 
INKTOBER DAY 9 (PRESSURE): Growing up, Ḥezi Deḥiq yearned for acceptance from his peers and never got it. This passion for the crowd’s love led him to betray his homeland of ‘Aravot and join the Bavel Macrostructure’s Kittim alliance.
But even with the world’s leaders behind him, peer pressure drives Deḥiq to be the best pistoleer on the planet. Beneath his fake “boring personality” is his repressed stress and turmoil. Inwardly he burns up, causing a fever that surrounds him in flames. At this point, he just wishes for a hiatus to catch his breath.
On the battlefield, Deḥiq’s go-to attack is to perforate his targets with his Carbuncle Drill Revolvers, which deal heavy fire and piercing damage. His gravity boots can create earthquakes and stomp flat whatever is beneath his heel. He also wears a shoulder drilling machine that makes his charges and throws deadly. The drilling machine can double as a culinary appliance, but Deḥiq’s terrible cooking always burns the meal.
Ḥezi Deḥiq’s powers come from the דחק shoresh root and related family, which governs stress, drive, inflammation, fever, burning, drills, handguns, pressure, crowds and more.
