⛵Wayfinders: Off Course⛵

Lani’s magic breaks reality. Sallly was made in a lab?? Andrée wishes the others would let him be a selfish, evil-ish diplomat in peace

But fate* has decided that it’s time for a Real Adventure for these chosen heroes

#GN #MG #F #LGBT #TV

*it’s not fate

Andrée from Wayfinders: Off Course. He has red skin and horns, and intense yellow eyes. Turquoise light swirls around him.

Lani from Wayfinders: Off Course. She has short blond hair, and light blue eyes. She clasps her hands over her mouth in panic.

Sallly from Wayfinders: Off Course. She has blue skin, two types of hair, and two different eye colors. Part of her skin is stitched together, invoking a Frankenstein-situation. She looks anxious.

The place: Aalborg, Denmark

NYMFE

Hans' life is perfect: school, parties, sex, repeat

Now Hans must learn to cope, before his emotions consume him

#GN #NA #LGBT

A comic page from Nymfe: Hans and love interest Mason sit together under a tree and discuss the view. Hans sits on top of Mason, looking happy and in love.

A comic page from Nymfe: Hans tells his friend Katie how much he was in love with Mason. She comforts him. In the last panel they are lying naked together, both with sad expressions. Katie says "Let's just try to forget him, yeah?" and Hans looks into her eyes.

A comic page from Nymfe: Hans sits on the ground in front of Mason, holding a walking cane. Mason looks surprised, then intrigued.

A comic page from Nymfe invoking a photo roll from Hans' broken phone: There are pictures of Hans and his friends getting ready to go party. They smile and have fun. There is also a photo of Hans, naked.

A comic page from Nymfe. The panelling looks off-kilter to invoke a fun, drunken night out. Hans flirts with a curly-haired guy, and kiss him in a doorway. He also offers him some pills from a small bag. He also walks around with his friends, smiling.

I've been working on an essay about The Struggles of TTRPG Outreach and Fandom but I think this tumblr post just captured the whole sentiment im like 100 words.

Fact: Apart from pure recognition factor, one of the major reasons your fanart gets more eyes on it than your OCd is because people are perverts for narrative context, and your OCs don't have any.

Corollary: you don't actually need to write a whole-ass graphic novel to achieve that narrative context. You do need to know what your OC's story is, but once you do, you can literally just draw contextless snapshots from that story that raise more questions than they answer and people will fill in the blanks.
