Reconstructed Veve

Reconstructed Veve is an item in Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers.

Interactions
The reconstructed vévé can be collected on day 3 after helping the art student at Jackson Square retrieve his work on day 2 and handing him the photocopy of the partial patterns and Gabriel's own sketch. This particular vévé has connections to murders in St. Dominique in 1693, the 1791 slave revolt in Santo Domingo and murders in New Orleans in 1810.



Symbolism

 * the two circles represent the wheel-within-a-wheel/ the double snake mound of Red Basin in the Republic of Benin (the homeland of the Agris tribe)
 * The wavy pattern at the bottom represents Damballah, the snake.
 * the symbol depicting Ogoun Badagris isn't specified, but Hartridge mentions him on the phone.

Trivia

 * The 20th Anniversary version of the Vévé is missing a wavy line in the upper right section. It doesn't look intentional; rather as if it was forgotten while copying the original. Also, the points in the upper two eye-like circles and the two perpendicular lines going through the two lower circles beneath the Damballah wave are missing. The four perpendicular lines on the horizontal centerline are of different lengths (the two inner lines being shorter), while they are of the same length in the original and novel-version.
