TMA: A swear? I might be an eldritch monster, but that is unacceptable. We aren’t here “effing” and “jeffing” like a common street harlot! This is the Institute, dammit! We have decorum!

beavers have the lifestyle that most children dream of. dig and travel through underwater canals. dam a river and flood the local woodlands. stomp mud into dam to seal. swim to flooded trees and destroy them. live in a secret hideout with a underwater entrance. full ownership over an engineering project

WHAT IS DEADWOOD LODGE?

Deadwood Lodge is:

🎨 an ongoing multimedia passion project by yours truly!

🌲 a cluster of cabins in the woods where misfits and other "monsters" can find refuge and community in !

📖 a worldbuild with two realms to explore: our every day earth with a couple of extra ingredients, and the fae realm filled with 37 (technically 39) fae Courts with their own individual cultures, religions, and politics !

THE PROJECT: A storytelling project and creative endeavour that began in late 2019 to try my hand at every available conceivable method of sharing stories and art. Music, video, photography, drawing, paper mache, writing, collage, website coding, animation, ambient audio - anything goes! Though it was shared in the form of a serial zine in the past, my current plan is to house everything on a website once I have that set up :o] In the meantime, everything is scattered across journals, sketchbooks, computer files, various paper mache masks, and one wall collage... and also some posts online that you can find tagged as "deadwood lodge"!

THE LODGE: Tucked away in a pocket in the deep woods, Deadwood Lodge is a camp with five main lodging cabins along with a mess/main hall, an activity cabin, a yurt, a bathroom building with full amenities, and a medical building. If you enjoy swimming or other lake activities, you can take a 1-2 minute walk down the path beside the activity cabin (where kayaks, canoes, and life jackets are available). Various (wheelchair accessible) hiking trails are available (in a labyrinthine pattern in the surrounding woods), as well as a nearby field for sports and other activities. In the evening the campfire is a popular hangout spot for many lodgers.

The five cabins are all named after major organs within the (human) body: Brain, Vagus, Lung, Heart, Stomach. Each cabin has its own overarching theme that highlights one aspect of the lodgers' individual selves within each cabin. Lodgers choose which cabin they'd like to stay in and may move cabins as often as they'd like. People grow and change and friendships wax and wane, so the living situation of course may reflect that!

THE WORLDBUILD: This could all easily take place in our own world, if you're willing to suspend a little bit of disbelief! The worldbuild mainly takes place on our regular ol' earth. The only (potentially) added bits are easily explained by the presence of a separate realm: the fae realm! Doors may open between the two realms (earth and fae), but fae generally regard humans as odd pests and thus don't have much interest in interfering with us at all.

WAIT HANG ON, FAE REALM?: Yes, the fae realm! Complete with accidentally-sentient automata!

There are 37 (technically 39) fae Courts that a fae could belong to, and each Court has its own culture, religion, magic, and politics. One thing that unites all fae though - they cannot lie (99.9999% of the time) and they love human stories as a result. Stories function as a currency between Courts and are highly sought after for status and power.

Also the fae realm is extremely hard to escape from. This is fine unless you want to leave.

SO IF FAE ARE REAL, WHAT ELSE IS REAL?: Ghosts! Wandering whisps! Black shucks! Monsters of all kinds! Sentient dolls and automata! Magic! There's also a brand new pantheon of deities to fill the fae realm! Vampires exist, too, and they can overlap with fae (Bramwell is proof of this), but the magic reacts in odd ways when this happens.

ANY LAST PITCHES?: Ummm ... Which buzzwords to choose.... Nope, actually I'm not doing that :o)

All I can give you is the concept of the existence of Millie, the weird little dead girl who antagonizes Bramwell daily and loves to get into things she knows are off-limits for good reason (such as fae magic + politics). Also Wardell, the human man who was coerced into fae servitude and now wanders alone while fulfilling his duties as a black dog shapeshifter, until he stumbles across an starry-eyed fae that he cannot seem to shake off his tail.

My favorite part of FMA brotherhood is that before and after the commercial breaks they say “FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST” except since netflix doesn’t have commercial breaks it’s just “fullmetal alchemist FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST”
