[ AT HER REQUEST ]

Key Cards:
During the 2017 Conduit event, Jataro was given the task to keep Fourth followers out of the arcade by stealing their Key Cards. He was only able to take two, but they both belonged to the Fourth's priests Marco and Fiddleford.

[ IN HER HONOR ]

Snakeskin Staff:
During the 2017 Conduit event, Jataro aided in an attack on Fiddleford, the Fourth Priest, under the assumption he was one of the Fourth's conduits. He and Mitsuhide killed the man, and Jataro skinned his snake half, cut off his snake rattle, and used both materials to create a staff for the Fog God.

First Sacrifice:
In June 2017, Jataro made his first sacrifice to the Fog God, as properly as he could.

Sacrificial Collection:
Since the first sacrifice, Jataro has started slowly killing human adults and freezing them to keep in the lake, saving them for a much bigger project in Her honor. Total count: 18

Fog Clan, Here we Stand:
After his first sacrifice, Jataro asked the Fog God what symbol he should use to mark sacrifices to Her with, and She allowed him to create his own. He came up with a Fog Clan kamon and revealed it to her at the tail end of July 2017.

Sacrificial Diorama:
Once memories were returned to them after the August 2017 Fourth Wall event, Jataro set about with Nagisa's help creating a Diorama to honor her and encourage monsters to realize that she loves them. They stripped an electronics store of its merchandise, destroying the TVs and radios as a display against the Fourth, and froze the inside of the store. Jataro made a wax figure of his vision of what the Fog God looks like, and used his 18 collected sacrifices as the bases for grand monster ice sculptures. He and Nagisa then proceeded to sacrifice 22 more humans to add to it, 8 of which are Nagisa's, bringing Jataro's total sacrifice count up to 32. Jataro then publically steered people to the store over the network under his Fog tied username, and hung around the area throughout the day to see reactions to the display.

[ PRAYER RECORD ]

First
Jataro's first prayer to the Fog God was a letter, asking Her about questions the boys had after their arrival in Ryslig. This was one part that lead to their decision to join Her side, the two of them - Jataro especially - happy with Her response and the fact that She actually took the time to write him back.

Second
His second prayer was after the 2017 Conduit event, where he offered Her the snakeskin staff he made, hoping that a magical staff made out of the skin of one of the Fourth's priests would help bring Her even a little bit of power.

Third
Jataro's third prayer was full of more questions. Wanting to know why She chooses the monsters She chooses for them, and asking Her about what sort of symbol or imagery She has that he could use for his sacrifices. This is when She granted him permission to design one himself.

Fourth
His fourth prayer was revealing the mon he created for Her, and excitedly describing everything he would do with it in Her honor. This is also when he first referred to Her as okaasama, or "mother".

[ OTHER NOTES ]

Prayers:
Aside from those listed above, Jataro prays to the Fog God every night, happily telling Her about his day, about how much he loves Her, about things he has done for Her, etc.

Portraits:
Jataro has painted a few portraits of what he believes the Fog God looks like, including a large one that hangs on Nagisa and his shared bedroom wall, and has been planning on creating other art projects in Her image.
