Post Update, Incoming plushies & sneaky peeks (Patreon)

Howdy folks!

Bit of a spot of time since last eh?

Update in case you haven't kept up (how dare you not have an unhealthy parasocial relationship with your fave dnd webcomic creator, do you even love me?):

On the 1st of May, my second son Hugo was born!

With our party now being four players, me and my wife swiftly moved into a new home to have the space and not having to go up an ungodly amount of stairs to get to our apartment. So a month and some extra has passed: we're good in our new place!

Now, on the subject of comics (you know, the things most of you are here for), my original thought was to get back to work in June and quickly make comics and post them in time for the release of the Trogna plushie launch with Makeship in late June, early July (you gotta get the engagement up for a merch drop yaknow) and then take a much needed holiday in July. Then in August, back to normal!

I've worked a bit on the comics so far and have a couple finished but upon reflection, my original plan was gonna be a bit half-baked. I'd rather take my time now and work up a buffer so that my return in August goes more smoothly. I'd rather not panic churn out comics in June for the plushie drop only to start working from zero again in August, so I've decided to work now in June but save the comics I make as a buffer for my return in August! That also leaves me more time to spend with the family and not have to take more time in July to handle and promote to plushie campaigns.

So in conclusion: I'm extending my time off until August to spend more time with the family and help facilitate a better work/life balance and update pace when I'm back in August. I shall return, rested and locked & loaded for comics, maybe even with some Sellswords & Sorcery!

Oh, the plushies will be released somewhere in August! Grogna is finished too, it just needed a little bit of a tweak that I noticed last minute!

The plan with Makeship is to release them at the same time with a "get both, get x% off" type of deal!

I will be sharing stuff for you fine patrons in the interim, some nice lil' sneak peeks and writing shit!

Plushie promo stuff:

And here's an exclusive lil' sneak peek, the WIP of my next homebrew one-shot that I'll be tossing at my dnd group :D

Quick one-shot, about three sessions long about a group of Athelvarn students partaking in the prestigious "Future Librarian Extra Credit Opportunity" but instead of getting the regular "re-sort the migrating books", "remove gum from library property" or "find books that have gone back in time to before they're written and put them in THE PILE", they get to go into the forbidden section to hunt down whatever is making the library come dangerously close to the ASCL - which those of you who've studied at any European institution for higher learning is "acceptable student casualty limit". I tell ya, the amount of time I had to punt a pixie across the library because the fuckers kept nesting in the Tort law section...

My idea is for this to be, way down the line, something I might share with my readers! The characters on the page is just placeholder PCs, though I'll add the Shroomfolk and Brack'Yura race options, also love the idea of playing as a zombie that retained sentience, subrace of Undead race option?

Anyhooo

Thank you kindly for your patience, understanding & continued support here on Patreon! Without the amazing generosity of you fine folks over the years, I never could have gone full time for as long as I have! Thanky you so much!

Stay excellent out there!

Peace and carrots
