NDM in Tarot Cards

1/8

I decided I wanted to make a little series with tarot decks themed around the characters in Na Daoine Maithe/ The Good People.

Shae

For Shae, I've picked the Spirits of the Woodland Tarot by HedgePinkInk.

Featuring nature - Shae really has the energy of Spring, they live out in the woodlands, and their garden is always vibrant with all their plants.

Woodland creatures - Shae has the disney princess vibes that have them interacting with all sorts of little magical creatures, so I liked this for that reason.

Art style - the fact that you can see the the individual strokes of the art gives it a very sweet, homey character that I feel suits Shae so well.

Colour palette - I think that the dominance of green and brown tones suits Shae and their cottagecore vibes very well.

If you click the tag "NDM in tarot" you'll see my other posts in this series :)

Shae Birthday Bash 2023 Day 2: Rest

For my second day of celebrating Shae this year, I put together a little PDF with a recipe for strawberry smoothies, in honor of them:

I’m playing “Na Daoine Maithe” after their update for my weekend gaming session and I love Shae. They’re my favorite so far. 🥰

Flannán: We need to distract these guys.

Robin: Leave it to me.

Robin: Centaurs have six limbs and are therefore insects. Discuss.

Aífe, Keagan, and Shae: *Immediately begin arguing*

Maeve, watching in horror: Oh, this. I don’t like this. I don't like this at all.

@unseelie-grimalkin dragged me into another fae story hyperfixation, so here some doodles

Don’t mind the very messy MC concept, my body’s pretty drained but my brain was in Creative Restlessness mode, so we had to compromise.

The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe) | Official Trailer

The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe) is a lore-rich and choice-driven historical fantasy visual novel inspired by Irish mythology and Celtic folklore. Play as a tenant farmer from mid-19th century Ireland, whose path becomes inexplicably entwined in fairy affairs after getting robbed by the roadside and lured into the mythic and war-torn world of Tír na nÓg: A once unified land, now divided into the Seelie and Unseelie Courts. Will you escape and return home with your stolen belongings? Or does fate have something else in mind?

Facts & Questions: The Game

🍃 The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe) is a Kickstarter-funded project currently in development. Due to the scope of the story, we will be releasing content serially on Steam and Itch.io over several years, beginning November 1, 2024. While you wait, feel free to play our demo! The revised version, with all new backgrounds and more voice acting, has been released on Steam and Itch.io as of August 1st, 2024!

🍂 The main character's name and pronouns are determined by the player, but in Vol. 1 (or the demo content), the MC will be referred to as "they/them" due to a case of mistaken identity.

🍃 Thanks to our Kickstarter, all upcoming routes will have both romantic and platonic choice options. If you're uninterested in romance, feel free to make friends instead!

🍂 Due to its Irish setting, NDM will occasionally feature instances of characters speaking in Gaeilge, i.e. the Irish language. All instances of Gaeilge are linked to an internal translation tool, which will be voiced by Nigel McKeon, a Gaeilgeoir.

🍃 Shae and Robin are non-binary characters, and respectively use they/them and any/all pronouns. Robin and Keagan are also arospec, and Shae is asexual. (Note: You can pursue the arospec characters romantically, but their romances might look a little different as a result of their identity.)

🍂 The free demo consists of the introductory volume of The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe). It is 2.5 to 3 hours of total gameplay, and ends at the point in which the player would continue on to a route (Vol. 2-7). The full game will be paid.

🍃 NDM is very intentionally set just prior to the onset of the Great Famine, which is both thematically and textually relevant to the leftist, anti-imperialist story we're aiming to tell. If you would like more insight into this, refer to this post.

🍂 Some Mac users who directly download the demo from Itch.io run into issues launching the game. If you're also running into issues, please refer to this post on our itch.io page.

🍃 Prepare yourself for horse related shenanigans. 🐎

ROs' names in ogham

Ogham is the first writing system in Ireland, first used in to write Primitive Irish. It is usually seen carved into ancient standing stones found around the country.

So anyway I thought it would be appropriate to write the Na Daoine Maithe characters' names in it. Ogham is read from bottom to top, and due to Tumblr tomfoolery, you may have to click the image to see the name in full.

Not everything transliterates literally however. There are no fadas in ogham, so Aífe and Flannán lost fada privileges. Keagan is technically written as "Ceagan" due to the lack of the letter "k". There also is no letter "v" in Irish so I wrote Meave's name in my personal favourite way, "Meabhdh".

Bonus! Tadhg (my MC)

Shae Birthday Gift 2023: Líadain

Has stolen some tree saplings from a druid temple on the Unseelie side, haphazardly growing them in different places in both sides. Shae receives one as part of this: it is a magically enchanted field maple sapling. If they grow it and grow it well, they’ll be able to grow and make their own maple sugar.

Wahoo! Something that I’ve been working on with these super talented folks. I had so much fun drawing these guys! Check ‘em outtt!!!

[robin-goatfellow]

Aífe: There is no future, there is no past, do you see? Time is simultaneous, an intricately structured jewel that humans insist on viewing one edge at a time, when the whole design is visible in every facet.

Shae Birthday Gift 2023: Lachtna

Lachtna gives Shae a single envelop for their birthday. Inside, it’s a bit of intel from Keagan’s archives about a possible lead about the princess. It’s given with Lachtna having a finger to faer lips, a smile, and a wink.
