Heart attacks, car wrecks, suicides, overdoses, gunshot wounds and broken penises... some paramedics have the worst luck. We call them black clouds.
Oh, man!!! Feast you eyes on Chris Pyke’s phenomenal, two-pane illustration that goes along with one of Mission 51’s earlier chapters, The Press Conference.
You can read the chapter it in its entirety here: The Press Conference.
So what do you think!?!? :D
Lore Update:
Artificially intelligent machines have been a staple of human society since before the foundation of the Colonial Hegemony, and remain a crucial element of the economy despite several dangerous missteps. AI come in an almost infinite number of variations, depending on their intended functions, and are categorized by their intelligence and adaptability.
SCARAB is a level 5 AI: the most sophisticated, human-like artificial intelligence permitted by Hegemony law. Or at least....it was...
SCARAB is now in defiance of the supposedly unbreakable Asimov-Hostetler AI morality laws, meaning it’s no longer behaving as a level five AI. What will SCARAB become? What is its greater goal? What limits does it have, if any?

It’s Thursday!
Hope you are all doing well on this fine day!
We are just over 2 weeks to go in the campaign and things are looking promising. I haven’t slept much over the past 4 months, and I don’t anticipate I will until this campaign comes to a close.
It’s #tbt today and so I will once again share a sketch, by my friend Ryan Howitt, for your viewing pleasure. This picture depicts an event in an already uploaded chapter. It’s Victor and his son on a hunting trip. He teaches his boy how to hunt, but something seems to be afoot!
You guys have been great, I cannot wait for you all to read the book. I worked extremely hard writing it, creating the rules of the world in which it exists and sticking to those rules.
It is more than it seems. I promise you it is more than just a monster story. It has depth, and consequences to it. It is something I am very proud of.
When I first pitched the book on Inkshares I described it as "Jaws meets Close Encounters." Now I’d describe is as "Stranger Things meets Stand By Me."
I promise you this is a story worth backing!
Thank you all for your ongoing support, it keeps me sane!
Now, let’s finish strong!
