Dravicular Iconography

First Appearance and Context

During the present opening, the term is invoked when an avout revisits his former home extramuros. A companion observes that a local resident’s wording—saying he “went to the clock” rather than that he was “taken” or “abducted by the avout”—shows she does not subscribe to the Dravicular Iconography. The mention situates it among the named outsider patterns the community tracks.

Roles/Actions and Affiliations

Dravicular Iconography belongs to the catalog of Iconography that Sæculars use to depict the Avout. It frames mathic intake as forcible rather than voluntary, especially around Collection. Recognizing when someone is or is not using this frame helps avout interpret and manage interactions during brief contacts outside the walls.

Relationships

• Contrasts with uplift‑focused patterns such as the Moshianic Iconography, which predicts avout emerging to enlighten the world.
• Complements other named iconographies as part of the recurring outsider lenses studied for safety and understanding.

Descriptions/Characteristics

• Core claim: avout “take” or “abduct” people—particularly children—into the maths.
• Tell‑tales: phrasing that treats Collection as something done to a person (“taken by the avout”) rather than a choice (“went to the clock”).
• Likely effects: can foster suspicion or hostility toward routine mathic practices when this lens is active in a community.

Current Status/Location

Active as a named pattern in current discussions. In the present instance, it is referenced only to note that a resident’s language indicates she does not hold this view.
