An Art Preview and Status Update

Ysabella

Wiseman

Chapter One "Welcome to the New World" is well under way, with an introduction to the narrator, Wiseman, and to the mentor-character who stars alongside Helena in the game, Ysabella.

My next big task is the sprite for Ysabella...
Sprites are so time consuming to make! 

V.011 Quick Update & A Synopsis

A tale of magic revealed to the modern world, and the subsequent chaos that revelation makes, Phantasmagoria stars 'Helena Hollinger' (the girl in light blue pictured above) as she moves through a world in the middle of falling apart. To help her find her way through the chaos, Helena has the fact that her soul has awakened to the memories of its previous life, that of an ancient, pre-historic, hero queen named Azuria. Manifesting as an alternate personality, Azuria aids Helena as the two deal with the powerplays of several powerful 'Phantasms,' or modern magic users, who are trying to carve their will into the crumbling world.

Phantasmagoria - The Record Of Modern Magic

Phantasmagoria.

 

Noun.

From the French 'fantasme' or phantasm/ghost & '-agorie' or 'production/play' 

 

An optical illusion produced by manipulating light from a special 'magic' lantern. Phantasmagoria, that is what they will call this day. A day when everything changes. When everything taken as fact turns into fiction. A day when everything taken as fiction turns into fact. A day when fantasy and illusion became reality.

A day... when Magic came to the otherwise normal real world.

And slowly, silently, the world goes mad.

I'll be releasing updates as I finish various chapters, so stay tuned!

Welcome to a New World

Hola and G'morn to everyone :)

Welcome to the very first posting of Project CoR's new blog! *Golfclap*

For those wondering, the 'CoR' in Project CoR stands for 'Chronicle of Realms' which is both the title of my first original fiction story, and also something over an over-arching title I use for -all- my stories.

For the moment, Project CoR is dedicated to unleashing a tale called 'Phantasmagoria - The Record of Modern Magic' in a visual novel format. It -is- currently a one man project, so it may take a while, but I have made good progress so far.

If you're skilled in the art of sprite or background making and want to help out, feel free to contact me at ProjectCoR@hotmail.com.

On the off chance you're good with music, don't feel shy about contacting either! Music is the one thing I -can't- do for myself on this project, so for the time being, I've settled for scouring the internet for royalty free music to use.

For those interested in the -current- art of Phantasmagoria, visit My Deviantart Gallery.
