A painting of a seagull walking brazenly out of a convenience store holding a bag of potato chips in beak. In her wake a brown tabby bodega cat is sitting shocked on top of two crates of fruit (but is not about to get up and do anything.) A small white dog in smaller green glasses also watches shocked from the floor. The shelves are stocked floor to ceiling with snacks.
A heist! šš¦
The main character of Blood of the Gods, Stranger. Stranger has curly black hair, pale skin, and blue eyes. They are wearing a blue shirt and brown pants. They are holding a wooden sword. Stranger is rubbing the back of their neck with their other hand, and they're staring offscreen to the left, while their body faces to the right. Text reads: Meet... Stranger They/Them "We'll start slow. Do you know your name?" They squeezed their eyes shut and racked their empty, clouded mind. Did they have a name? They must. When they opened their eyes, they shot Karina a hopeless look and shook their head. Stats: Memory - infinity Confidence -2 Dexterity + 1 Love for the Sky +3
Gearing up to Blood of the Godsā release, letās get to know some of the characters, starting with Stranger:
After the crew of the Vengeance rescues them from the ocean, Stranger awakens to realize they donāt remember anything about themself.

Pitching an amnesia story is so hard. Like, whoās the main character? Well, thatās a major spoiler. And whatās the main character doing? Wellā¦thatās also a major spoiler. So whatās the basic plot, then? Uh⦠spoiler?

A digital illustration of a black haired person, Stranger (they/them), with pale skin in a blue shirt, black pants, and brown boots, kissing the forehead of a ginger haired man, Jonah (he/him), with pale skin and a gray shirt. Strangerās face is mostly obscured, while Jonah has a serene expression on his face.
Stranger, a character with wavy black hair, holds up a light blue phone. A man stands behind them, his bicep curled around their face. The artwork was made by the user CorvidArcana, but is signed with their old username QuietPossum, because they never bothered to change it in the image.
Stranger, a character with wavy black hair and pale skin, leans their head tiredly on Jonahās shoulder. Jonah is a taller man in a gray shirt with ginger hair. Stranger is wearing Jonahās shirt, which is ill-fitting. The artwork was made by the user CorvidArcana, but is signed with their old username QuietPossum, because they never bothered to change it in the image.
Stranger, a character with black hair, a blue shirt, and brown pants, sits on the side rail of a ship. Jonah, a character with ginger hair, and wearing shades of gray and black, is marching past, toward the right of screen. The dialogue in this scene are screenshots from a Tumblr interaction. Jonah: A BIRD POOPED ON MY HEAD ON THE WAY TO WORK. Stranger: HOW DO YOU KNOW THE BIRD WAS ON ITS WAY TO WORK? Jonah: DONāT MAKE ME ANGRIER THAN I AM.
