No description of the Cathect exists.

Your research was exceptional until you ended with that, wow.

You just gave us the best description of a Cathect I've ever read. In fact, your description is so good, I feel like I actually know one.

BTW Cathects have been known to disturb all manner of sanctuaries, not just traditional religious sanctuaries. :)

A magiree is a festival, usually held once a year, where cultists, mostly self-described "mages", congregate, by invitation only, to burnish one another's haloes.

the least you could do is use some of your verbal skills and come up with an imaginary monster... and, of course, leave us with a word from tsuwm's list so the next has an opportunity to continue.

A flatudelphian is (even though, from what I can tell, IS NOT IN TSUWMS WWFTD LIST gheez) an oracle in training, who sees from the future the image of a world and attempts to create it. Only one slight problem... it is all alot of hot flatulence clouding their judgement and was truly never going to happen in the first place.

*********

Actually ®, a magiree is related to the flatudelphian... by imagination only. It sits around all day cooking up enemies and schemes to rid itself of those imaginary monsters. In the end it finds out that it was truly its own worst enemy. I don't know if *anyone noticed, but I've tried to weave at least a hint of TSUWM'S WORD'S definition into my monster's creations.

That's very good, musick.

If all its enemies were as good-humored as you are, its enemies really would be imaginary. :)

phatic

A hip hopper who spends all his money on Phat Farm apparel.

So how do you find tsuwm's "collection", anyway? Is there a link somewhere?

Foul! These are supposed to be MONSTERS!

Oh, wait, you DID say 'hip hopper' - sorry, missed that...

Check out second page, I think, for link to tsuwm's stuff.

To continue: shalloon

shalloon
an invisible floating entity of possibility, the shalloon psychically influences those near it to explore what might be possible, leading to all sorts of new adventures, and sometimes catastrophe...

Aglet: A small, worm-like creature which eats shoe strings and button threads. And, when a particularly bad infestation occurs, victims find that, not only won't their shoes stay on or their shirts stay buttoned, but their zippers jam shut. But we won't talk about why. Ewwwwwww.
