Yup - anything in my gallery that is prefaced 'Daric' is from that universe. But I'm working on something else long term at the moment so I don't want to get distracted in another story. As a result, though they do connect, it's very vague and occasionally events contradict each other. Even the genres differ, though the fantasy element remains - sometimes thriller elements creep in, and other times horror. Characters and rules of the universe generally remain consistent, but sometimes one will die only to miraculously return in the next piece with no explanation, since there's no overarching chronology. Each one is just born of an idea, and Daric is a character I like to use to test out those ideas. Maybe I'll write it someday, but not yet.
I can sum it up by saying you're welcome to go through them, (and in fact I'd be immensely flattered if you did), but the lack of chronology will be the main thing to bear in mind!

Jak. (Obviously not how it's traditionally spelled, but seeing it written as 'Jack' evokes a slight panic reaction in me, because I'm used to seeing my full name on correspondence that I'm either uninterested in, or actively dreading. Didn't find out about the videogame until several years after I started doing it )

You are very welcome. I only scored your originality low because there are lots of zombie pictures eating body parts. But overall, wonderful! Keep it up

haha yeah I chose that part in the story because I'm pretty sure they cut it entirely from the film adaptation.

What is the movie? I've never heard of it.

EmilyStepp In reply to Gobba42 [2012-04-14 23:05:44 +0000 UTC]
Re-Animator. They made it in 1985, it's a pretty fun movie but veers dramatically from Lovecraft's story.
