Hi goth moon!

It's fine! We really do live in different time zones, from what I have seen it's a 5 hours difference, but we can work with that! Hm I will have to look into that, but just as a heads-up, it's far from complete! The rulebook is still not written out yet as making an entire TTRPG by myself is quite hard and the pdf I sent is simply the introduction to it, but there is still a good portion made for the mechanics and such. Regardless, I'm very very happy to see my project get your kind of passion and interest! It really goes a long way to motivate me to make something great and beloved.

That's perfectly fine! There's plenty in the world that doesn't involve body horror, it is more restricted to certain magical afflictions connected to Crystalline Water and the art of Death in Alchemy, a bit in Medicry too. All of your abilities will be very appreciated! The world's design is something I have conceptually in mind as many nations and their culture/fashion are a mesh of different cultures respective to their rough location in Kigazdar, so your degree should definitely help, I also have a few design references! And the miniatures are for sure another good thing to have for later with 3D printing.

Honestly, the fact that Convergences is going to be your first experience is already an honor to me, I already find you extremely talented and creative, so watching you improve as you create is going to be an equally amazing first experience to me.

As for the time, likewise, I'm in university and so everything is not nearly as developed as I wished, even though progress is slow, it is progress! Also I really do appreciate the passion, it is exactly people like you who I wish to work with, and as for the credit, no problem at all to me, all due credit and work to the portfolio will be given.

For the questions:
- My plans for now are to make Convergences expand it into an open license franchise, with the completed TTRPG itself being the main objective to be released. The rest is up to fate and business I'd say, but I do hope one day to reach out to media producers for adaptations of the world, be it for movies, series, anime and whatever else it would be possible to achieve.
- Definitely yes, anyone that contributed to Convergences will have income. I cannot guarantee that there will be income since it would depend on the success of sales, kickstarters and general fundraising, but if there is, everybody in the team will be rewarded.
- My roles will be of a writer, for both game mechanics and lore, and team coordinator so to guide and steer the rest of the team to something I envision, though of course still considering your and the team's feedback and opinions. Occasionally image editor since I am getting used to that and perhaps (and hopefully) much later in the future an artist too to collaborate on the art department.
- This is my first project that I have publicly announced, though far from the only one I have in mind for the future! Once Convergences is all good and finished, I'll move straight into 1 of 2 other worlds cooking up in my head, perhaps be totally different from a TTRPG, they might even become an animated show or digital game!

So, before I ask of you a sample so to both introduce you to a core part of Convergences and get you in on the quite substantial details, I ask that you please enter what will be the official discord server for Convergences: https://discord.gg/93SH6kybQG. Even if you don't use discord, I still recommend it for better and more organized communication, it is also the only social media I feel most familiar and adapted to.

Thank you a lot for the interest and reply, have a good day.
