Apologies for last week. Apparently a Windows update caused my computer to act unusually and I couldn’t get any work done. When I had my friend look at it, the problem was fixed, but then my old Wacom tablet decided it didn’t want to work! At that point the only solution I had was to run to the store and just buy a new one. A rough blow, but one I was able to quickly resolve thanks to the financial support of my patrons. RIP old tablet…

Onto the game news. I spent this week designing and furnishing the new dungeon for Chapter 3-V, Friedrich Headquarters (North Branch). This office stores a powerful treasure in its depths, but getting there won’t be easy!

The building has the most advanced technology in all of Fallholt. Its multiple floors are protected by various security doors and transport panels to confound would-be intruders.

The building’s security was designed by Cassie Schwerin, a high ranking officer who works directly under Queen Anja.

Cassie is a self-described genius with a strict propensity for following the rules, often barking at those who stray outside of them. She has a sharp tongue and a superiority complex, but still gets teased by her co-workers, who don’t really take her seriously. Not only is she a marvelous engineer, she’s also a talented artist! Cassie is paid well to create the official portraits of any vampire who seeks a legal ID Badge.

She and her family have a distrust of vampires. Despite the Queen being one, she has great respect and admiration for Anja. However, when speaking to other vampires, she can often be cruel, using her authority to say heinous things freely. She does get flustered easily around them, however. Perhaps she harbors forbidden feelings…? Who knows.

Right now, I have Cassie’s character portraits available to all my $5+ patrons. This preview is 16 alts, (8 with glasses and 8 no glasses).

Cassie’s a character with a lot of personality and is inspired by a few suggestions you all gave me from the last survey! I can’t wait to share more about her.

That’s all I’ve got to share with you this week. Until next time, everyone!
