SANCTUARY: THE SHAMAN FROM THE NORTH is on Tapas
What is “Sanctuary: The Shaman From The North”? It’s a fantasy webcomic written and illustrated by me! It’s been in construction forever, but I’ve finally made up my mind and started actually working on it!
Synopsis: “Find who will bring together what’s divided and bring light into chaos’ darkness” The Sanctuary is a safe place for magical outcasts from any path of life. Follow the story of Rut Lilja, Spica, Chike, T'Han the Immortal, Gladewen and Árni as they fight for what they think is right in a world torn apart by the claws of hate and the dangers of the plague.
How is Sanctuary made? As I said before I’ve been working on this story since I was 11, but I only recently got to a point in which I was able to make something that was worthy of being put to paper. My process works like this: - first I outline the chapter - then I sketch each page on paper with a blue pencil - the I ink every page - then I scan the pages and color them with Photoshop on my computer It’s a pretty industrious work, but it’s either this or I’ll never be satisfied with what I do.
Updates: I’ll update following a very fluid schedule, but ideally as soon as I’m done with a page I’ll post it up and let you all know! Uni keeps me busy, but I’ll juggle with it!
Support the comic: - TAPAS: following the comic on tapas you’ll be able to get notifications every time I update and you’ll be able to comment and like every update, feedback is extremely important and I really wish I could read your thoughts on my story. - TUMBLR: I made a blog just for Sanctuary, if you have questions of any kind on the story feel free to stop by. I’ll upload there the profiles of the main characters and every update. - PATREON: supporting me through patreon means having insights, sketches, previews and any kind of sanctuary-related content that I won’t post anywhere else. You can pledge a monthly amount from 1$, 3$, 5$ to 10$ with rewards that increase with your donation
Support the author (me): - Ko-fi: if you like my work and would love to make a request I’m always open to ko-fis, this way you can “commission” me a small piece and I’ll deliver it to you in a couple days! you can donate anonymously or leaving me your URL if you want to be tagged when I’ll post your request! - Paypal.me: donations are always open as I’m a broke uni student before I am anything else. Like through ko-fi, you can leave a request with your donation, together with your url or your email address if you want to receive it/be tagged in it!
Didn’t you do this already? Yes! this is the second time I try to publish this comic, but last time I was not very happy with the style i was working in. And on a more general level I was just not happy with it as a whole. So I re-did it all: I re-wrote the story, I re-defined the chapters, I revised the style and I am pretty confident in how it’s turned out. I am already happy to be able to finally tell this story, so the only thing I ask of you is to give this comic a chance.

UPDATE SANCTUARY: THE SHAMAN FROM THE NORTH Page 1 is on Tapas NOW!
What is “Sanctuary: The Shaman From The North”? It’s a fantasy webcomic written and illustrated by me! It’s been in construction forever, but I’ve finally made up my mind and started actually working on it!

Updates: 1 new page every week! IMPORTANT NOTES ON UPDATES: it’s a very fluid schedule, uni and exams take most of my free time and as much as I wish I could update entire chapters each time I am not able to do that without waiting months between updates, therefore, for lack of better options and because I *really* want to share this story with you all, I’ll post a single page each time. At least until I have exams.

Meet the main cast of Sanctuary: the Shaman from the North
T’Han, Chike, Rut, Árni, JiYeong, Lysandra, Makena, Gladewen and Karina.
#sometimes a diverse cast is just an aesthetic choice#look how pretty the skintones are#sanctuary: the shaman from the north#s:tsftn#art#oc#can you believe i've spent years on these lmao#t'han's nonbinary#karina's a trans girl (she/her)#t'han uses they/them pronouns in the english version but i had to use he/his in the italian as there's no neutral pronouns#lysandra and makena are sapphics and dating#chike's bisexual#rut's aroace#árni's complicated since he's a kid but he's aroace and nb too#jiyeong's pan#gladewen is queer though more inclined towards women#basically they're a bunch of diverse queers fighting evil with thunders#fight me on fantasy rep#but sara you don't have to make everything a political statement#fucking watch me#p.s. it was kinda difficult to put different ethnicities in a fantasy setting because i didn't want to imply colonialism#fuck colonialism#therefore they're all 'mixed'#it's kinda complicated and i can't make these tags longer so just shoot me an ask if you're curioous

THE TIME HAS COME!
I am happy to announce that starting next Sunday and every week from then on you’ll be able to read my web comic SANCTUARY: The Shaman From The North on Tapas!
Synopsis:
“Find who will bring together what’s divided and bring light into chaos’ darkness” Sanctuary is a safe place for magical outcasts from any path of life. Follow the story of Rut Lilja, Spica, Chike, T'Han the Immortal, Gladewen and Árni as they fight for what they think is right in a world vexed by famine and hate.
About some characters:
Rut Lilja is a Shaman from Vvit, the last city before the Deep North, her cultural background is a mix of Inuit and Siberian population’s shamanism. you can see it from her clothes and tattoos. Lysandra Spica Nikuhen is from Menér’s countryside. She’s the leader of the Sanctuary’s wizards together with her girlfriend and Chike. Chike’s the other leader of the Sanctuary’s wizards, she’s a refugee that fleed Coran to find a safe place and she found that and a family in the Sanctuary. T’Han the Immortal is from everywhere and any time, as they like to put it. Gladewen is a dwarf from Logg. He’s Sanctuary’s founder and only non-wizard allowed to step in it. Árni, last but not least, is quite a misterious figure. Rut brings him along as her apprentice shaman, but the kid, an 11yo, looks like he knows a little too much for a kid. !! DISCLAIMER: All the characters are LGBTQ+ and there’s no such thing as queerbait!!
HERE IS THE LINK TO READ IT the first 2 pages will be up on Sunday 24th Semptember at 7PM (CET+1)
