Dark Magic - Part 2

You didn't think I'd take that much fun off the table entirely, did you?

Dark Magic - Part 1

Sorry to ruin your fun, but this is a very grounded series about talking rock-people, squirrel-dog-men, and flying boats.

Gift Art for May 2021

Hello all you wonderful patrons!

Thank you again for your patience and your stalwart support amid the the hiatus. Adam is still mid-move, but he found time to fulfill this month's gift art.  You can find the hi-res PNG and raw CLIP files attached to this post.

Thank you all again!
- Ian & Adam

Magic - Part 2

A hard part about setting hard limits to magic in your narrative is trying not to rob it of its whimsy. You also don't want to have a magic system that breaks any tension in your world.

And then you have the option to write passive-aggressively and give yourself an out.

Magic - Part 1

Salagadoola, mechicka boola, bibbidi-bobbidi-boo. Put them together and what have you got?

An unpronounceable mess.

Hiatus 2021

We want to stress that your continued support is greatly appreciated. Collectively it hasn't reached a "quit your day jobs" level, but they fact y'all support us and stick with us is still immensely reassuring. 

Thank you again, and we'll try to get back up and running ASAP.

Be safe & be well,
Ian &...

Drogune Technology - Part 2

Place your bets: Galaxant is: 

A) happy to have new, reliable transports on the market
B) angry they're losing their monopoly on standardized tech

Drogune Technology - Part 1

You'd think they'd been kind enough to leave a manual behind or something...

Tenebrite

This is one of those magical moments where I've got a deep-lore long-con element and Adam comes up with a visual that ties in perfectly.

Gift Art for March 2021

Thank you all for your patience, everyone! Please enjoy this month's gift art. Attached you'll find the PNG and raw CLIP files for you to download at your leisure.

Miasma

Sounds like awful stuff, huh? I sure hope the crew doesn't have to deal with that one day...

March Gift Art - Update

Howdy all your lovely patrons!

Just a heads-up - Adam will need more time to produce the month's gift art. Unfortunately paying work (and its deadlines) have to take priority, and he already moved mountains to get out the month's update.

Thank you all for your patience, and of course your continued support!

Mana

Whole lotta talk about "mana" in this series. So what is it?

March 2021 Update

Hello all you lovely patrons!

This month we bring you Pages 62-67, delving deeper into the dive that brought Lisie into the world.

Thank you for your continued support, and we hope you enjoy!

Mana Hunting - Part 3

Man, looting drogune temples sounds like risky business. It's a good thing our heroes aren't going to...oh.

Mana Hunting - Part 2

The gig economy sucks no matter where you are.

Mana Hunting - Part 1

And now to finally answer the question of what is it the crew of Fortune's Lap actually do.

Enchanti Drinking Song

In the proud tradition of jaunty Irish tunes about crushing historical events.

Gift Art for February 2021

Hello all you wonderful patrons!

Not only did Adam get this month's update up and out with less time, but he cranked out this gorgeous enchanti tavern scene as our monthly thank you for your support! You can click the attachments to download the PNG or raw PSD.

Thank you again for your support!

February 2021 Update - Pages 57-61

Hello all you wonderful patrons!

Adam worked extra hard to get the next batch of pages ready for a month that's 48-72 hours shorter than the rest. We wrap up our time in Drofhime and begin a jaunt through Humhime - and the past!

Thank you all for your continued support!
- Ian & Adam

Drofhime - Exports

There have been attempts to export the molten magma of the Core in the past.

They never end well.

The Drof - Part 3

Yes, that is a "chip off the ol' block" joke baked into the species. YOU CAN'T STOP ME!

The Drof - Part 2

Yes, Jobbun is that round by fasting. He's not fat, he's just big boned. (big rocked?)

The Drof - Part 1

What is a drof, anyway? You're going to find out - in exhaustive detail!

This is part of a triple update this week to get us caught up on Lore Pages for the month. Thank you all again for your patience and understanding!

Progress Report

Howdy all you lovely patrons, and welcome to the newbies!

I'm touching base with y'all to let you know I'm still buried under work. A major project is reaching crucial milestone and the deadline got bumped up - plus all the other plates I've got spinning.

I hate posting to say things are delayed again, but I figur...

January 2021 Update - Pages 52-56

Hello all you wonderful patrons! We thank you for your patience as we transition to the new monthly update schedule. We hope you enjoy the beefy five page update!

This is the first time we're doing a mass update like this, so please let us know if this works for y'all. Would it be better to do an update per page? We aim...

Gift Art for January 2021

Goodness! Who is that dapper fellow Wynd is trying to murder? Enjoy your sneak peak at one of the major antagonists in this month's gift art!

Lore Page - The Caveman Movement

"Were they named Fred and Barney?

Don't be ridiculous.

Clearly two ofthem were Ungus and Bungus.

Lore Page - Drof Culture

Not gonna lie - drof and enchanti ways of life are sorta wish-fulfilment. 

Lore Page - Drof Polishing 2 of 2

Behold! The Jan. 15th update!

I want you to imagine two kids, red in the face, viciously arguing over whether Killimon is a polisher or not.

"He's a luster slab and you know it!"
"Then so is Slabolanch!"
"YOU TAKE THAT BACK!"
"IF THE SHOE FITS, WEAR IT!"
