I definitely am a nerd. Since I was a kid I've always been into fantasy board games and fantasy art. I've been tattooing now for 18 years and playing games like Magic the Gathering for over 20+. I remember looking at magic cards when I was a kid and that was the first time I can remember ever being completely inspired by art in general. There were times when I would completely forget it was my turn because I was enthralled by the art. Finally I get to mix both of my passions together in this passion project.
I have always felt like board games were some of my favorite things to play because it gave me the opportunity to delve into a world with friends of mine. I either felt like the story was a little bit lacking or the story was great but the mechanics were bad. And if both of those things were fine I felt like there wasn't enough variety in what my character did. I found myself wanting a little something of each game I enjoyed. So one day I just decided to really put some serious effort in and make my own.
At the end of this I hope to be able to offer this. I want to give people a really rich storyline. I want you to be able to have combat mechanics that are constantly changing and fun. I want the game to be easy enough for people to learn in the beginning so that this can open up the door to fantasy board gaming for people who are intimidated by the rules, but complicated enough tactics for die hards later as you progress. I want you to have to choose your own adventure and have complete replayability depending on which road you go down and really feel like your choices matter and are not just part of a binary path.
This is my goal, and with your help and support I can make this dream and passion project of mine come to life.
