Can't believe I didn't share this art of Viv months ago! Done by RakasaDemon, who also did that awesome Jasper and Aria art you guys saw earlier in the year.

Sidenote: Just realized, I think Viv is supposed to have blue eyes. I'll have to ask if I can get that corrected, oops!

Also, here's the fun thing I wanted to share with you guys. I took last week to solidify some really important world-building I should probably have had in place before even publishing IRON PRINCE, and one of those things was "finalizing" the official roster of all of Galen's first year cadets! (I say "finalize" because I may switch a couple of the new names after a little more research).

Please feel free to dive in here and give me your thoughts, whether on consistency issues (like if Aria has purple arms for some reason) or sensitivity issues (like if I've named one of my Chinese-descent characters something terrible).

Regardless, I hope you find this interested, and once it's locked in I may find a couple of artists to do some quick portraits of every first year character, starting with the named ones (like Adam Jax, Laquita Martin, etc)!

Wow that is amazing… thanks! 😊 And first 🥳

William Anderson

Viv looks great! Hope we get to see the specs of the other Firesong members at some point cause I’m curious to see what those look like 👀

Gabe

JENNIFER REBELS has Honoris assigned which belongs to Logan Grant

Christopher Generazio

Stopped looking through when I saw you have the same device name for Logan and the next mailer Jennifer. Will keep looking through, might need to go do a whole Reread… (oh no…. Not another iteration of this amazing series)

Gabe Yohn

Consistency does matter for important characters in my opinion. Though it really can all be changed. "OH I see this first year got her hair changed..." in a timeline where artificial looks are so prevalent i would think people can change that.

boomkill

Only thing I've noticed is Cashe doesn't have her ability in the description

Voror

I forget sometimes that Rei is the only A Type in his class but then they have been mentioned as being rare especially the ones who wind up successful. I'm trying to remember if there are any other students at Galens with the type besides Rei and Lennon.

AARON HETHERINGTON

Huh. Sense was always black in my mind. Gotta reread, I guess 🤣

Wraithmarked Creative

yeeeeeah but I wanna TRY to stay consistent, at least with the year, you know? haha

kirbydabear

always pictured Sense as sorta tanned Tien (from Dragonball)...without the third eye of course. Did a double-take when I saw him listed as "White" lmao Thanks for this, Bryce!

Iron Akela

That artwork is AWESOME! The curls… they need their own TV show or something :o)

Oscar Widegren

I think it was mentioned at some point that there are academies specialized for A-types. A-types are rare, but it seems even rarer for them to attend ‘normal’ academies.

J Andrade

Lennon mentioned he was the only A when he got to Galens and Rei has the benefit of not being alone because Dent & Lennon are there implying there isn't one in the 2nd year class

maxwolf

Isn't each class supposed to have 128 cadets? With only 26 per block, that adds up to 104 cadets. And it might not matter as much as the series continues but you might want to keep track of who is a part of what squad and who was part of the summer training group.

Rick

I don’t see Viv’s white streak. But otherwise awesome.

JD

holy heck, that's gorgeous

ProVVoke

I think it'd be cool to see a Polynesian person or two, historically they can grow very large and what remains of their culture today is still in touch with melee combat and weapons. A giant Polynesian, male or female, would be pretty intimidating in just about any Type you chose for them. I also just took a quick scroll through some stats on the best highschool basketball teams in the USA. A lot of the male highschoolers on those teams are 6ft 4inches and up. So even before whatever genetic correction or CAD assistance takes place in your setting, the users should probably skew much larger than the average we're all used to.

Shipwright

Bryce You're going to hate me but I'm making a list (it'll be up soon, I'm just preparing you)

Jonah

Doesnt jiang have like a magnetic ability or something

Maria Klein

I love that there is a great mix of races I did notice there aren’t any indigenous groups. I know that this is set really far into the future so had the concept of indigenous people been dropped? You get a feel from the story that racism seems to fallen from the culture norm and even the Japanese heritage seems to be more a passing thing with the possible exception of Rei’s family.

Tim Kilgore

Hey Bryce, I am just wondering if maybe this could be sent to me in a different format. The chapters are fine in PDF but this kind of information sometimes doesn’t play well with excess technology and a PDF format. I know that’s an unusual request maybe, but any help I could get would be really appreciated. Thanks. :-) Word format would be absolutely perfect.

Garret Bazurto

I don’t remember the character from my listens to note the details, but C -1 Duelist Owen Lewis is listed as Asian (Japanese). While that is not out of the realm of possibility, that doesn’t seem to match with the way you have named characters from different descents.

Shipwright

(If I ask about genders, its for clarification, I am not trying to be insensitive) If any of these have already been asked and answered I'm sorry. Class Block A 1. Bahnt or Bandt Senson? (Consistency from Bks. I & II) 2. Dai (Due or Xue)? (Ch. 8 Bk. 3) 3. Mellisa Borenson is listed as Male. Confirm? Class Block B 4. Allan or Alan Pearson? 5. Laquita Martin is listed in Bk. 1 as being in Block B not C. 6. Casey Foreman is listed in Bk. 1 as being in Block C not B. 7. Casey Foreman's entry also lists them as Female. (male pronouns used in Bk. 1) 8. Oscar Colt is listed as a Lancer in Bk. 1 with his fight against Gillian North. Class Block C 9. Issue #5, Martin is initially listed in Block B 10. Adeline Parker is listed as Male. Confirm? Class Block D 11. Pacey Clayton is listed as Female. Confirm? 12. Addie Vargas is listed as being a Saber in group C (Ch. 36 Bk. III) 13. Jae-Song Gwan is listed as Female, is called a boy in Ch. 40 Bk. I 14. The class is 1 short at 25 if Vargas is not in the class. Class Block E 15. In Bk. II Ch. 10, Catcher mentions a friend from 1-E. General: 16. There are 3 summer group members that have not been named, and by context from Grant in Bk. 2, it is implied they all qualified on the Backside of the Intraschool brackets individually and were not on a team. 17. With 26, 26, 26, 26 that is a total of 104, short of 128. This would also make 1-E 24 students. WHAT IS CATCHER'S MOM'S NAME

Shipwright

If you are bewildered about how I found these, I've been keeping a spreadsheet 8)

K.Impossible

Didn't she fake that to distract Rei?

Yuvraj Baheti

She does have magnetic hunt! She tricks Rei but she does that by activating that ability so he focusses on the weapon and not her, but she does have it!

Gregg Moses

Might want to include rank if mentioned and book number associated with it. Melissa Borenson is mentioned as male, are you sure they are not female or do they identify as male?

Karl Shlagel

Might be nit picky but in the books you label class blocks 1-a. 1-b. 1-c. 1-d I always assumed it was to not confuse it with cad ranks.

Sugoi

Im not sure if this is a joke, but she doesn’t have any ability. It was simply a trick to get one over Rei. There wasn’t mention of her using the ability in B2 where she had showings of combat.

Jonah

Fr

Jonah

Does anybody know how far we are in the second semester of the school year, because im wondering how much time he has to reach A0

Wraithmarked Creative

Actually Owen specifically is listed as Asian with common english name because I didn't want the dilination clean like that. Like "Sarah" being half-Asian, I know plenty of Asian individuals whose names are "John Smith" and the like from marriage, adoption, etc etc!

Wraithmarked Creative

Hey Tim! Yeah I think I can mess with that! Let me get some fixes in place and then I can get a word doc to you! If you don't hear from be my end of the week, can you message me on Reddit? Is that easy for you?

Wraithmarked Creative

Already looking into that haha! I asked in the subreddit yesterday about indigenous american names. Adding WILLIAM "WILL" BLACKFEATHER, and double checking to make sure that it's an appropriate name for someone of an indigenous background

Wraithmarked Creative

Polynesian inclusion makes sense! Gonna tweak a name or two. As for the basketball stats, that makes sense on paper, but you have to remember that readers need to feel like they COULD be a member at the Galen's Institue, which is why the average guy is closer to 6'1"/6'2" and the average girl is 5'11"ish. That's not super tall, but it's a lot easer to put yourself in the shoes of someone a few inches taller than you than a foot taller!

Maria Klein

Thank you so much for the response. I know it’s not something you do often. I love the addition! You should read about Joe Medicine Crow. Mostly because it’s a freaking amazing story about the last War Chief, The One man was a beast! Also windtalkers were Navajos that relaid information during WW2 because the Navajo language was impossible to crack

Hope

I think basically 2 months since sectional ( best guess) , I would guess 3rd quarter parameter test is pretty soon,

Shipwright

If you want my spreadsheet to help out with planning, I can share it

Michael Wuestenberg

Pretty sure he was looking for a "cupids-bow" & not a "Joker" effect. But once you see it... well it's hard to not see it.

Dee

Gorgeous 😍
