I am definitely intrigued.

I love the idea of being meat!

Hey uhm, the next page link forwards to page 007 x3

My bad, page 8 doesn't exist yet. ^^;

Docile, Hard Working, and Delicious are also good traits for a friend.

That's one heck of an experiment to focus on in order to create an entire race for a specific purpose which is described here. I wonder if there were a lot of failures in their experiments before there was any success with the dwellers? I'm not any kind of specialist in science, but I know that any kind of research that revolves around getting a specific reaction and/or result during a certain test on a subject doesn't happen on the first try or anything.

If it isn’t too strange or bazaar for me to ask this why did the warlocks even bother with creating a species like that in the first place?

Okay...

...this is actually a lot worse than I imagined! 😱

Soooooo real magic or 'stand in for a detailed scientific explanation' magic?

Nah just regular old magic.

Is magic something that's regularly used or are there restrictions made involving its use by law to only certain individuals who can use it for specific purposes in that world that those creatures live in?

Only one clan was able to use magic, the old warlocks. They were the rulers of all other clans and the ones who forced them into war.

There were only a handful of warlocks left in the world by the time the dwellers were created, they brought their own clan to ruin with their magic. Each warlock was jealous and fearful of the other warlock's power, leading to feuds that destroyed them one by one.

Did the warlocks really start out as a clan all by themselves or did they originate from the other clans but only from certain individuals that came from each of them?

They were their own clan, looked kinda kinda like demons crossed with dragons. (Though it's possible they used to look differently and only made themselves appear that way to be more intimidating.)

No other clan was able to use magic and the knowledge of it was lost after the Great Starvation, during which the remaining warlocks finally destroyed each other for good.

Are there any kind of remnants left which depict what the warlocks 🧙‍♂️ looked 👀 like back then like say for instance statues or portraits portrayed in plain view in areas where they used to live and rule?

Barely, most of it was torn down & it was declared illegal to worship them after their rule ended. So people wouldn't idealize their tyranny. Even the gobblers realized eventually that they were being used and are now better off without their warlock lords.

Is gobblers the main term used for all the clans that devoured the dwellers when they were first created?

Yep, it's the general term for preds in this setting.

Do any of the clans in that world take offense to be called gobblers in any shape or form?

Some individuals may do, generally it's a widely accepted term though.

It's more likely someone would take offense to being referred to with the wrong clan name, like if you called a Seeker a Snatcher for example.

Would it only be the clan name that differentiates the species of that world or are there other aspects which play a factor in that as well?

"Clan" basically means species. Different clans can't interbreed. A Dweller can only breed with a dweller and so on. So calling someone by the wrong clan name would be like calling a cat a dog.

Each clan has typical traits. Snatchers look reptilian for example, Striders are always centaurs with 4 legs & an additional mouth on the front of their horse-like body. The typical clan traits can somewhat vary inside a clan however (just like there's dogs of varying colors and sizes). Like not every Strider has horns, only some do.

Are you going to introduce every single clan that exists in this world 🌎🌍🗺or only a certain number of them?

Not sure yet! Depends if i can weave that many into the story.

Are any species that you’re introducing here right now going to be similar to ones you’ve already introduced from other comics you’ve made before? https://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/jagdmeute/folder/921622/Island-Realm, https://www.furaffinity.net/gallery...../Lullaby-Tales

There's definitely gonna be a lot of scalies, lol.

I’m kind of sad 😞😔😢 to see that island 🏝 realms is in a category that classifies it as canceled I hope🤞 someday you can continue the story and plot sometime later in the future if you ever have the time to do so.

I may continue Barrel's story one day. I just don't know how yet. :X I put the series on ice till I can figure out what to do with it...
