We love you, sleepy cat.

this wasn't at all how she worked. hell, she'd never even thought of doing anything like this, but somehow he had said all the right things and somehow he had ended up between her thighs in the supplies closet. maybe she'd been so easily secuded because she had been on an absolute dry spell and he'd just been so.. cute. she'd vowed to never do this again, but still, she was a woman of her word. the article was published. a slow sigh left her lips as she stepped back into the restaurant, and lifted herself on one of the bar stools, chin resting in her hand as she just stared at jasper working, kinda glad he hadn't noticed her yet.

Hiiiiii. Can you tell me more about Jasper and Rory?

Heyyy! Sure can fam.

Jasper Rechter is a Hellhound portrayed by Jake Gyllenhaal. I really in my head think of Jasper as like the surly bodyguard. He often finds himself feeling inferior to other demons because of the whole "guard dog" joke often made about hellhounds. He's prone to short temper outbursts but quick to be sorry (sometimes). I ship him with chemistry. He's Pansexual (as are almost all of my characters) and he doesn't consider himself a believer in love so much as lust and convenience.

Rory Byrne is a 24 year old Army Veteran portrayed by Max Thieriot who was hurt in Kuwait, suffering a above the knee amputation of his left leg due to a roadside IED. Rory is an alcoholic/recovering alcoholic who was based heavily in the One Tree Hill universe (his best friends were Brooke Davis and Peyton Sawyer growing up). Rory is heteroflexible and is often prone to helping others long before he gets himself help. He's super self conscious and has extreme survivors guilt coupled with post traumatic stress.

Books and reading are really important to Clara Entwhistle. She bonds with Jasper the cabbie over having read The Grey Book, with Titus Byrne over Captain Swift novels, and with a random pickpocket over Figgler's Prestidigitation. She sees the right reading material as a potential solution to any uncertainty in her life. Trilling's Arts of Detection can teach her how to be a detective. Posner's A Guide to Business for Gentlemen can tell her how to make Fleet-Entwhistle Investigations a success. She only moved to London in the first place because she read Horrocks' Tales from the City in the Harrogate Herald.

I find this particularly interesting because we have significant evidence that Clara's access to reading material has been tightly controlled and subject to judgement for most of her life. She tells Fleet, "once, when I was young, Mother caught me reading a sensation novel and threatened to send me to the Mesmer Institute". She considers this a formative enough experience that it's one of the first facts she lists when wanting to share information about herself with Fleet. As a child, her reading choices were something shameful, something that indicated she wasn't the kind of young woman her mother wanted her to be. And even as an adult, arriving into London for the first time, she is chastised by her mother for wanting to buy a newspaper: "What need have you for a newspaper?... You can read my copy of this month's All a Lady Need Know. Disagreement resolved." In the world Clara has been trapped in, the ladylike thing is to only access a very limited sphere of appropriate information and not to read anything that falls outside of that sphere. And those boundaries of ladylike-ness will be rigidly enforced.

So perhaps it's no wonder that after Clara arrives in London, she's devouring everything from taxi regulation manuals to adventure novels, repeatedly calling the librarian for recommendations in the middle of the night, taking out 20 books at a time and then realising she's underestimated how long it will take her to read them. No wonder she's so often telling people about books she's read. For Clara Entwhistle, being able to do any of those things openly is a new and thrilling kind of freedom.

Elegantly designed and thoroughly playtested, Eureka represents the culmination of three years of near-daily work from our team, as well as a lot of our own money. If you’re just now reading this and learning about Eureka for the first time, you missed the crowdfunding window unfortunately, but you can still check out the public beta on itch.io to learn more about what Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy actually is, as that is where we have all the fancy art assets, the animated trailer, links to video reviews by podcasts and youtubers, etc.!

You can also follow updates on our Kickstarter page where we post regular updates on the status of our progress finishing the game and getting it ready for final release.

Beta Copies through the Patreon

If you want more, you can download regularly updated playable beta versions of Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy earlier, plus extra content such as adventure modules by subscribing to our Patreon at the $5 tier or higher. Subscribing to our patreon also grants you access to our patreon discord server where you can talk to us directly and offer valuable feedback on our progress and projects.

The A.N.I.M. TTRPG Book Club

If you would like to meet the A.N.I.M. team and even have a chance to play Eureka with us, you can join the A.N.I.M. TTRPG Book Club discord server. It’s also just a great place to talk and discuss TTRPGs, so there is no schedule obligation, but the main purpose of it is to nominate, vote on, then read, discuss, and play different indie TTRPGs. We put playgroups together based on scheduling compatibility, so it’s all extremely flexible. This is a free discord server, separate from our patreon exclusive one. https://discord.gg/7jdP8FBPes

Other Stuff

We also have a ko-fi and merchandise if you just wanna give us more money for any reason.

We hope to see you there, and that you will help our dreams come true and launch our careers as indie TTRPG developers with a bang by getting us to our base goal and blowing those stretch goals out of the water, and fight back against WotC's monopoly on the entire hobby. Wish us luck.
