Let's talk monster design a little bit! In this day and age, it's difficult to come up with something truly original in terms of enemies and monsters in fiction. Spellcross itself is derivative of all the games I've played and loved in my life, so I draw a lot from experience when I design a n...

There was a lot of speculation over what this Scan spell would be in the comments of the previous page, which made me really happy. People are actually paying attention to how magic works in my story! One of the things that careful readers will begin to notice over time is that different wizar...

The Goddess has already been mentioned a few times now, but not properly introduced. As with all things that haven't been fully explained yet, it's being saved for later. Short explanation is that she's the Goddess of Magic who blessed the world with life and essence long ago, who still watche...

This page has a little more exposition on the nature of the dungeons. While scripting, I tried to think of the most obvious questions a reader might have regarding dungeon exploration. At this point in the story they're still mysterious places, and any assumptions the reader would have are tie...

Spellcross factors very heavily on the concept of dungeons, a well established aspect of RPGs since their inception. Many games I've played over the years have gone into crafting the lore of Spellcross, creating an amalgam of things I love about exploring them. Dungeon themes, monster spawns, ...

I still haven't taken time to explain Alchemy in depth, but it might still be a while before I do. Most people reading the comic have at least a basic idea of what alchemy does, the same way they understand magic and spells. Because of this I've held off on a big information dump, since it'll ...

And here we have the current dungeon group! Ah, this is a good time for me to elaborate a little on character roles. In MMO's, players typically take a role of either a Tank, Healer, or DPS (what's called the "holy trinity"). I wanted this kind of class based system to be represented in Spellc...

Whoah! Caldwell made a fireball! For those who were paying attention to the plot so far, this is obviously the culmination of Caldwell's research involving his alchemy weapon. There'll be an in-comic explanation later on, for now don't stress the details too much. Let's just say he's using the...

Nell's signature spell is called "Icy Bubble". As a support spell it's super helpful; it creates a sphere out of a thin layer of ice, which is full of freezing water. When something touches the bubble, it shatters and spra...

Well, I hope any of my current readers will see the difference between the old style and the new here. I'm utilizing more layers, as well as digital tools I've disregarded in the past such as blurring and filters. I'm also...

Greetings patrons, here's the secret tumblr you've earned access to with your support. There's only one image there now, but I'll be consistently adding to it with more bestiary entries, magic explanations, and other fun lore bits. It's also looking a bit spare, but it'll get spruced up in time. Thanks again!

Hello patrons! As you most likely have seen, Spellcross is returning from hiatus on January 1 2015. All of you have chosen to continue supporting me even when there haven't been any updates in months, and that means a lot to me. Your support has helped out more than you know.
As updates resume, i'm overhauling the Patreon so it makes more sense and has actual, tangible rewards for supporters. To...
