When I Was Young...
🕑 Added 2024-04-09 17:41:34 +0000 UTCFor you lovely patrons, here's a first look at the one-page autobio comic I did for the When I Was Young charity anthology! The WIWY anthology more than hit its $25,000 goal, and I couldn't be more stoked. All profits from that anthology are going to The Trevor Project, so it was a total honor to be able to participate in it.
I talked about it on BlueSky a bit, but it was absolutely wild to be able to dig up and dust off the Ragnarok Online character I used to play 20 years ago to put him in this. (He's been generic-ified, though, because we're skirting around copyrights here, hahaha!) OCs never truly die! They just go into hibernation!

He truly was!!! And I was just thinking of you, because while I was drawing this I went back through all my old RO screenshots and was loling my way through them again 😂 I was a cringe, immature teenager when I got to be Ivaldi but that was the first space I also got to be myself!! I'm still so grateful for that!!

Omg I hadn't thought about Ivaldi in a long time. He was your soul-character all along! Badass battle priest bonking folks with his book, just swapped it for a comic book these days ☺️
