Serpent in the Staglands Kickstarter Update #8, $21,632 and Counting

The eighth update for the Serpent in the Staglands Kickstarter brings us news on the Paypal funding sum, and introduces us to some of the “unsavory humanoids” that populate the lands, the Spirit Realm, and one of the title’s musical themes. Here’s a snippet:

Unsavory humanoids

Throughout the rest of the year more information of the world of Vol will be revealed, but we wanted to dive a little more into the Staglands directly. This information below is of general knowledge to the populous.[sic] The relatively recently founded peninsula has its share of trading political problems, immigration issues, monsters still roaming off the more well-traveled roads, but also a problem that every new colony faces: tension between new arrivals and natives. We spent some time yesterday working on the concept for the stout race of natives and wanted to share:

Their violent culture and hostility towards the new races coming to the Staglands has led to them being outright killed when seen. You will inevitably run into them on your journey, and can experience the pleasure of their company firsthand.

The creatures known as the Bloodless are of a different origin entirely. Though rarely seen or talked to, they are known to populate the entirety of Vol, usually sticking to themselves in the shadows away from civilization. They stand dominating the tallest man or woman, have noble features but a pale, blueish skin. They are immortal, but do not possess any god-like powers (the only other immortal beings known of). Fortunately they’ve had several thousands of years to hone their fighting skills, as well as ponder the mysteries of life, and are always ready to engage in earnest philosophical discussion before tearing your limbs off. They neither trust nor like mortals, and find them to be rather pointless.
