beautiduwanger: So, after a closer inspection to the SR5 teaser revealed today, we got this colorful skull. I keep reading everywhere and everyone is saying this is a skull candy from the iconic mexican tradition “Day of The Dead”. However I just realized that it might be something else, something way older…First of all, this isnt a skull candy. Yes its colorful, but the ornaments are so flat and it lacks the excessive amount of details that day of the dead skulls have. And the giveaway… this one has a tongue and an open mouth. Day of the death skulls never have tongues on them.This skull has a lot of prehispanic vibes to it, and its design might be based on the aztec god of death, which is pretty much identical. If Volition actually did their research this time, we could be having a gang similar to the Sons of Samedi in terms of concept and vibes. Assuming this is a gang of course, and assuming Volition didnt pull another SRTT and decided to use an aesthetic only because it looks cool but without giving it any lore to it.
