My mutuals, my lovelies, my pride, my fellow creators. Lend me your... eye, technically. Thread time about a project of mine.
The way I have my sci-fantasy, post-apoc setting? The one where Dana hails from? I& #39;m not sure if I like the direction I took it in thus far.

However, I& #39;m not feeling a hard reset either. There& #39;s not a lot of hard stuff that& #39;s been created thus far. Only a few rewritten chapters of an unfinished novelette.
Maybe I& #39;m in the "Midgar chapters" of Apocalypse Fox / Moon Fall. Literally so, within a dystopian city.

I believe that a story should grab readers, players, watchers, etc from the get-go. I also don& #39;t believe hard worldbuilding works for me, either. Rather than define endless amounts of lore, I& #39;d rather tell character-driven tales that develop and expand upon lore over time.
The tl;dr of Apoc-Fox as it exists right now are thus.
Mutant fox-girl lives in village. World is overgrown. Skid friend saw werewolf employers eat coworker, and fears he& #39;s next. Vixen slips into workplace, finds info.
There& #39;s more to the story, but nothing finished.

Apoc-Fox started as a solitaire tabletop RPG campaign. I had used the game to help me tell a story. The bits I& #39;d finished of the first tale, "Wolf of Dead Streets", are from lost tabletop sessions that I recall.
I don& #39;t think it tells enough of what I wanted of the setting.

The characters? That& #39;s the opposite.
From the first drafts I& #39;d shared on my writing blog, you get a great idea of who Dana, the titular Apocalypse Fox, is. You get an okay picture of the junkie Tom (AKA Prowler), and of the ex-merc Eric. The supporting cast is dece, too.
