Looks like it's that time again to vote for your favorite characters in the current year! Please vote for all the OCs you like the most in the poll here: https://strawpoll.com/3RnYXa2QBye

Since the last poll, I've been working to bolster the popularity of some of the characters that have been getting fewer votes. I am looking forward to seeing how they shape up this time around!

I've specifically given quite a bit more attention to the Drachaverse and Medieverse. I've been working on revealing more of the major players. In Elise's case especially, I've been giving insight into her favored activities while also giving her a slight redesign. I'm doing the same for the Medieverse, finally fleshing out more of the characters and giving them their refs (Rasha, Grisel, and Elaine). There are different classes that I want to delve more into, so we'll eventually see the Royals of Bluerose, the Ash Gang, those of Lightholm Citadel, and more!

Recently I've completed another chapter in the Feralverse, though there is yet more to go through. This current sequence is probably the most story-rich the universe has ever gotten, so we shall see what comes of that in the future! Will Sheila have a huge serpent meal to herself, and will Michelle and Davy get away?

After a long hiatus, I returned to working on Kinetic Spirits, the Pokeverse canon. I've done a lot of brainstorming ahead, finishing up a major arc in the story as a whole. Now we just have to actually present it, and it'll be a slow process. Don't forget that these are being posted on my non-vore account: https://www.furaffinity.net/user/fidchellworks

Hildegard's Quest for Aura starts up again, this time with Hildegard returning as a Riolu! Her future fights in this smaller form are sure to be interesting (and adorable). This new part to the quest comes in light of A Rabbit Astray's latest chapter being completed. There, a very big crossroad is occurring, with Mika and her party going back to the Kevala jackal tribe, where things are sure to be tense! We'll see how this plays out in the next chapter, which will start after this line of Hildequest chapters are finished.

In the coming year, I'm hoping to work more on locales and layouts relevant to characters. In the Medieverse especially, I wish to actually sit down and draw up places relevant to them. Elaine's tavern is one example. Many more characters are waiting to be revealed, and I'm also planning on the next comic series being in this universe, so look forward to that! One other thing I'm wanting to do is lighten up the Shakespearean English a bit. I think it's still rather confusing for some and perhaps a little pretentious for others. It doesn't help that it's done away with in my game, which takes place in this same universe.

The game itself is coming along well, our Kickstarter having finally launched! We reached our main goal in such a short amount of time, and it was amazing to behold. With that covered, our expenses are recouped, and we even have a little extra to put into other future projects. Fulfilling backer rewards is going to be a challenge, especially with the physical reward, so I'm anticipating learning the best way to go about this and ensure everyone receives it.

Thanks for reading my ramblings, and I hope you continue to enjoy my work in the upcoming year of 2026!
