Menagerie of Misfits Multiple Paths?

Added 2022-11-12 15:00:57 +0000 UTC

Hey everyone!

I hope you all have been enjoying how Menagerie of Misfits has been shaping up thus far, but going forward, I want your opinion on a matter of how to proceed with the story and project overall.

This story is based on Tabletop RPG stories, tropes and general feel. And something I wanted to do to emulate that, and also engage more of you into this world I came up with, is get your opinion on how the story should develop next.

At certain pages, I want to offer multiple paths for how the story is going to move forward, and then let the decision of how it goes up to you all. Another idea too, since tabletop RPG usually involves a lot of dice rolls to determine the outcome of actions, was to allow you guys to freely suggest courses of action, and then roll to see if it succeeds or not (using the character's relevant game statistics), or roll to randomly choose one of your suggestions on how to go forward.

I think this could really shape this comic into something even greater, when we all get to author the story together and shape it according to what the community feels works best.

But ultimately, the choice rests with you. Do you want me to keep writing the story on my own, do you want me to offer choices of what can happen next, or do you want to suggest courses of action for me to choose and see how the story develops from there? Let me know in this handy dandy poll!

Or, as always, if you have other ideas, let me know down below!

(This whole idea, however, only applies to Patreon supporters, since I'm posting the pages here earlier than everywhere else. Just a little caveat to keep in mind).
