2023-03-20 11:58:01 +0000 UTCYou know, with the liaison and trade caravan...I'm thinking about a Dwarf Fortress mod...Yinglet Enclave. It's not like being thrown into a DF world would make Yinglets any more prone to hilariously terrible disasters than they already are...

Val Salia
2023-03-14 22:10:00 +0000 UTCYeah, there's a lot of different situations with a lot of different effects on their lives!
Val Salia
2023-03-14 22:09:53 +0000 UTCAs an enclave grows and more of its basic needs is met, they're able to specialize a bit, yeah!

2023-03-14 22:08:30 +0000 UTCThey do that sometimes!

2023-03-14 22:06:24 +0000 UTCMinor note in character design, the grey female has a face structure similar to the way Kass was drawn in the first 100 pages of the comic. I like that Kass is drawn with the longer "seeking" personality type muzzle now. I know Val said at one point there are three functional Yinglet genders, Preening Male, Seeking Male, and Female. I wonder if "Seeking Female" is prevalent enough to qualify as a fourth gender, or if there's not enough variation for it to be a thing. I realize art styles change over time and Val has improved a lot as an artist, and character designs, especially the Yinglets, have changed subtlely over the course of the comic. I still kind of like the idea that Kass' lengthening muzzle is a sign that she's actually just reaching full physical maturity as a Yinglet.

2023-03-13 14:47:28 +0000 UTCI like these ideas, even if few of them are surprising. Imagine being a transfer to another enclave, nervous about introducing yourself and on finding a role where you're headed, or perhaps eager to prove you made the right decision in going, or perhaps unsure the liaisons made the right decision in sending you someplace new, but trusting that they know something about you that you don't, on some level.

2023-03-12 04:39:04 +0000 UTCSome enclaves with rising fortunes might well find themselves owning the necessary resources to train liaisons. I wonder if Viz has started that plan yet.

2023-03-12 04:30:22 +0000 UTCVery informative. I especially like the Ivanmoth plug about money verification for just a small fee.

2023-03-12 03:58:20 +0000 UTCI do like to see Yinglets actually being competent.
