Starfall Springs ('Stardew Valley' inspired village of monsters) (Patreon)
Content
So some of you may have seen over on Tumblr that I have recently started to play Stardew Valley, a super-cutesy farming game, with a gift-based social system, and the chance to romance certain villagers and marry one of them.
Of course, I immediately imagined a similar setup but with monsters instead, and promptly posted this post, which featured the following series of monsters and their, somewhat stereotyped, locations and vocations...
The merfolk by the shore
The dryad and faun in the woods
The lich in the tower
The centaur at the animal ranch
The naga in a cave
The eldritch horror deep in the mines, with the slimes and undead on various levels, and the goblin overseer
The orc at the blacksmith
The lizardfolk at the lab
The tiefling at the tavern
The kelpie in the village pond
The gnoll and the werewolf at the adventures’ guild
The ghost in the old ruined house
The troll under the bridge
I decided it might be fun to create something similar, and post the stories initally on here on early release, and then onto Tumblr.
What do you think? You up for this? It'd be a whole community of monsters, in a semi-modern (I guess!?) fantasy world, and a series of humans who keep moving to the area and intriguing the local monster population. I'm imagining it'd be a world where monsters are known, but rare/reclusive rather than shunned per se...
Anyway, let me know your thoughts, and have a cheeky monster-sign as a bonus! (Also let me know which sign you prefer, and I'll use it as the header for the stories since I'm no longer doing aesthetics for any of my stories.)
