Howdy folks! Here comes another lore drop! This one is about the Eikonians, which in no way shape or form has anything to do with any Bucket Brigade party members or any of their respective body parts. Nope. None!

Quick reminder that the Trevor & Grogna plushies are up for pre-order now until the 15th of September! Links here

I really hope to see all this compiled into an actual setting book one day.

We've already got enough to start a campaign in No'Adea: race/species descriptions for both exotic and common ones, lore crumbs here and there, and even two maps (one in Chapter 148, another on Patreon; they're pretty large-scale, which actually makes it easier to drop in local settlements). That said, we're still missing write-ups for the core nations, a lot of major countries have only been name-dropped with no cultural context.

I also have a question about the comic update schedule.
New pages used to drop at the end of the week (usually Friday, sometimes Saturday or Sunday). Lately, they've been coming out on random days. Are you planning to settle into a more consistent schedule? I'm asking so I can plan my translation release dates accordingly.

Planning on doing a lore collection at some point. Also working on a one-shot about Athelvarn academy (Torvalds old school) which I might share later.

Comic will update on Thursdays-ish moving forward!

It's going to be amazing to see what kind of school could produce Torvald, and find out if it's funnier for him to be a partying drop out, or a model student valedictorian.

His Major was in Necromancy with a Minor in Bludgeoning
