Devere: Stand in it and be angsty.
Knell: Play in it and the puddles it makes. (Or run away in it, barefoot. XP)
Miriam: Stand in it and be angsty.
Florian: Kill time indoors. Finds rainy days kinda boring but loves a good thunderstorm.

Oh, and Daniel: Yes.
As a human he was not only dealing with the Great Depression but was also an alcoholic, so he had a hard time keeping a job and home.
He also was basically a homeless vampire and squatted in the abandoned house he was tortured in prior to his murder. XP
Devere: Yep.
Knell: She has a home but avoids it as much as she can. ๐ It's hardly a proper home for her though.
Florian: Nope.
Miriam: Was almost homeless and then almost COMMITTED until Florian swooped in and took her to his mansion. XP
Last night I went to the Puca Festival in Trim, Ireland.
It's all fun and games until someone unleashes a giant demonic hare.
Okay I've actually had an idea for a silly memeish art for a while now and I might have to at LEAST draw that before November is over. XP

The stronger they are, the younger they can be when they first discover they have magic control. Ones who show signs in infancy tend to grow to be VERY powerful. ๐งต-

OH one more detail I wanna reveal: Almost all mages deal with physical or mental "side effects", which also varies depending on their magic type. If they overexert themselves when practicing, the side effects can even be deadly. Becoming skilled tends to make side effects less common/pronounced.

01.11.2025 15:21 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Once again, how much can be done with magic varies from person to person. It can range from bordering on useless, to quite a lot (with exertion/limits), to nearly GODLIKE.
There's more to cover about magic/mages in Knell honestly but I'll leave it at that for now. XP
What magic they can control varies, usually it's one or two types only. It could be related to the elements (fire, water, air etc), life (healing & nature tend to be connected), or the most rare: death.
Many mages show some level of psychic (or "spirit") ability as well, regardless of magic type.๐งต-

01.11.2025 15:01 โ ๐ 7 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Daniel: Set in the 1930s. Newsreels and newspapers.
Devil's Trill: 1850s, so newspapers mainly.
Knell: Fantasy world. Word of mouth - especially from travelers, maybe some big news on town bulletin boards. Might be some newspapers starting to be a thing in big cities.
Oh yeah, lots of em ๐ I don't write a lot of music these days but always going to be proud of the "end credits" theme for 20 Galaxies

31.10.2025 22:13 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I'm sure I've asked this question before, or at least back in my Twitter days, but I'll ask again: Have you ever written, or even recorded, a song for your comic? It could be a song meant for the story itself (like to be sung by a character), or a song that's just about your comic. #webcomics

Are you begging for a break?
Are you sweet?
Are you fresh?
Are you strung up by the wrists?

I still like the look of this old Daniel art and want to fiddle more with this faux charcoal/crayon-ish style, in all black again or color.

His long, black cloak trails behind him holding various dead things like bones, skulls, and a decayed arm.

Florian and Miriam holding each other close after a brief pause in their dance. The background seems to be becoming more colorful.
This is a break week for me, so here is a preview of the next Devil's Trill page! The next Knell page is the cover of Chapter 2, and I've decided to keep the whole image a surprise rather than to reveal even the title...just 'cause. XP

Here's Daniel if it were a musical.
I guess he still might use the zombies to make gathering easier but Knell would be scared if she happened to witness them in action. ๐

Two panels from the webcomic Into the Smoke. Panel 1: Judd, a priest, is shown. Juddโs face is shown in profile, his eyes eyes wide with shock as a large black claw wraps around his face, holding him by the chin and neck. Behind him, a demon bares sharp red teeth and snarls, โSuch impure thoughts, Father.โ Panel 2: Judd squeezes his eyes shut as the demon scratches its claw across his temple. The demon continues, โI could feast on them for days.โ
Into the Smoke chapter 2 episode 18 is up!! And just in time for spooky season. ๐
