Please make sure to read these before asking me a question. I may have already answered it here! 0v0



Q. How old are you?

A. I'm currently 22. I'll be 23 this March.

Q. Where are you from?

A. I live in the Pacific Northwest of the USA.

Q. Where did you get the idea/inspiration to make "The Seer"?

A. A number of factors led to the making of "The Seer".  I've wanted to make a web comic for many years, but never had the courage or idea to make one. I started really getting into CreepyPasta in 2011, and thought it'd be nice to make a story about them, but it wasn't until October 8th, 2012 that I made the plunge and started. Part of my motivation was to alleviate my own fear of the pastas by turning them into more palatable characters, while another part of me has always loved writing fantasy. One day while throwing around ideas about how I might possibly be able to combine the two, I thought "What if the monsters were actually real, but we just don't see them? Can no one see them? What if there was a certain person who could?" and thus "The Seer" was born.

Q. Can I use your characters/story/universe in my own comic?

A.  It really depends. If you just wanted to make characters from "The Seer" cameo in your own comic, that's fine so long as you credit me.

If you were hoping to make your own "spinoff" series, or set your story in the same universe as "The Seer", please contact me personally so we can discuss it.

Q. Are there any OFFICIAL spinoffs or sequels?

A. As of right now, no. Any other related series' you may see are entirely fanmade and are not cannon to the universe of "The Seer".

Q. Can my OC be in your comic?

A. As a general rule, no. Unfortunately working with OC's can really make things hairy. I like to have full creative control over my comic, and if I were to use someone's character, they'd sure as sunshine want to have a say in how they're portrayed. By giving up my creative freedom, it's taking all the fun away from me, and if the comic is no longer fun, I see no reason to continue making it. Now there may be an occasional exception to this rule, but for the most part, OC's won't be appearing in "The Seer".

Q. Can I suggest monsters to appear in your comic?

A. Yes, you may. This doesn't guarantee that I'll put any monster you recommend in the comic, but I do take suggestions into account when writing up the outlines for new chapters. If a lot of people suggest the same monster, there's a higher likelihood that I'll make it happen.

Q. Is Jane the Killer going to be in the comic?

A. No. She just doesn't really fit well into the plot of this particular comic, so please stop asking.

Q. Can I draw a fanart?

A. Absolutely! Please feel free to send me a link so I can see it! 0v0

Q. Do you do commissions?

A. Yes. A list of my prices is available on my profile, and you can note me with any questions. However, I am currently very busy with multiple projects, so I may not be able to take on any particularly ambitious pieces at the moment. (I.E. large group portraits, etc)

Q. Do you take requests?

A.  No. Currently I only do requests for friends. I simply haven't the time for anything else.

Q. I don't have money but I still want a commission. Can I have one for free?

A. Once again, I'm sorry, but I do not do requests.

Q. Will you draw my character?

A. No requests.

Q. Will you be an admin in my group?

A. Unfortunately DeviantArt limits the amount of groups we are allowed to help run, and along with that, I'm practically up to my eyeballs in other projects and responsibilities, so in most cases, I'm sorry but I'm going to have to decline. Perhaps I can join as a member, but I don't really have the time to commit to being a good admin.

Q. Why didn't you respond to my comment?

A. I'm really sorry, but I just get so many comments nowadays that I simply haven't got the time to answer every single one. It's nothing personal, so please don't think I'm ignoring you in specific.

That's all the frequently asked questions I have received for now, but I'll continue to update over time. Thank you for taking the time to read through all of these! 0v0

That's all for now~

Hey Madame I tried sending you a note about this, but i guess you either did't get it or just never read it. So, I have a character i wanted to make for my CP animation. However, she's got a specific past. Her lineage is known as "The Shifter" a line of people similar to the seer, only with different abilities and roles. I was going to make a comic on this. However, The beginning of their lineage involves Korbyn's ancestors, as the first Shifter was actually adopted by the Seer, hoping to get her kid more open to the world and prepare her for the duties of being a Seer. I was thinking three generations before Fala. Unfortunately, this would kinda mess with how the Shifter story's going, with the whole past thing...So i wanted to know if i could use specific things from the seer such as the roles of the seer, and if you could help me create the mom (the current seer in the comic) and her daughter (the next seer in line). If you would like to know more of the story, please contact me, as i'm pretty much always on. Please, answer me soon...
