Page 20 is up on Patreon for $2 patrons or higher. Gavin’s in some real trouble as the afore mentioned sal-kin show up. Will he be able to escape?
Just four more pages in chapter one! It’s been a long, slow road, but thank you to everyone who has stuck around for the ride!
Once I finish chapter one I’m going to start looking into bundling everything into a 24 page book that will be available digitally and hopefully in print at some point.
Some say the humans came to Pacifica from across the sea. Others say that they were refugees from the chaotic southern lands. It was so long ago that no one remembers where they came from.
What is known is that the first humans in Pacifica settled on the bay and built the city of Haven.
Relations with the native beings of the area started off well. The group of humans was fairly small at first and helped by local kin to survive. Their technology and science was useful in fighting back the monsters that had appeared during the God Wars. This allowed the population of the city to grow. Small groups from other lands would also occasionally arrive to settle.
In more recent times, with fewer monsters and the growing human population, tension has increased between species. Some humans feel that their intellect and technology were gifts from the Goddess to help them govern over the other beings of the land.
Jay-kin have an especially hard time in human communities due to their resemblance to demons from old stories. Fear and discrimination against them has always been common, but has spread to other kin as well.
I am working on some writing in my down time to share the world building I’ve been doing. I’m hoping to eventually lay out a world guide to expand the setting and give readers a broader look at the world without having to wait for new pages of the comic.
Ultimately I think it would be neat if it ended up being a sort of campaign guide for a tabletop role-playing game. The first step is just the generic campaign environment that could be adapted to any game system. Later on I may take a stab at setting up some base rules for a Pacifica specific game setting.
The first experiment with this expanded world lore is up on Patreon right now. It’s a limited exclusive for patrons and those in the Pacifica Discord. It becomes public on 3/4/19.
Right now I plan to write more of this background stuff when I can’t work on the comic. Once I get enough material I can put it up here in a more organized form at some future date.
Don’t forget, all patrons names are on the Legends page. I truly appreciate everyone who helps me continue working on Pacifica!
