Fun Fact 2: Daniel's Demon form!

Probably one of the hardest decisions I had to make during development... There were so many ideas and options to choose from!

Don't forget to check out the Kickstarter campaign to see Daniel and his team in action! 😎 Link in 🧵

#kickstarter #houseofwise

Black and red text on a white, paper-like background. In the bottom left portion of the page there is a picture of Daniel wearing his combat armor: his shoulders are hunched, and his arms and legs are transformed into their Demon form. His face is obscured by shadows except for his eyes, which are almost glowing in the darkness.
The text reads:
"Fun Fact #2
Daniel's Demon Form
Probably one of the hardest decisions to make during development was Daniel's Demon appearance.
What would his transformation look like? Could he transform completely, or just partially? What Demon would he even be a Hybrid of?"

Black text on a white, paper-like background. In the bottom left portion of the page there is concept art of the Araguaro, a big amphibian Demon with grey patterned skin, red underside and markings, and a long tail.
The text reads:
"At first I considered making him the Hybrid of a wolf-like Demon... but there were already so many characters with wolf transformations or powers in popular media. I wanted to try something different.
I thought of giving him a more reptilian appearance, but I still wasn't completely convinced. Then I thought of salamanders and other lizard-like amphibians such as the axolotl...
And that's how the Araguaro was created, which also helped finalize Daniel's abilities."

To celebrate, I took inspiration from fellow manga creator @foolsence.bsky.social and prepared some fun facts to share with you all!
I'm planning on sharing one each day of the campaign, and topics range from worldbuilding to characters to BTS information!

Today's post: Hybrid Theory's Origins!

Black and red text on a white, paper-like background. Below the text are two small pictures of Daniel wearing his combat armor.
The text reads:
"Fun Fact #1
Hybrid Theory's Origins
I started developing Hybrid Theory's world and story about 8 years ago, while still in university. And it all started with... the protagonist himself, Daniel!"

Black and red text on a white, paper-like background. Below the text are 3 pieces of concept art of Daniel: the center one shows him in his civilian outfit, while the ones on the left and right show him wearing earlier versions of the Army's combat armor.
The text reads:
"I've always found the "monster-hunting monster" character archetype very interesting, so I tried to create one of my own.
I gave him a fun-loving but reckless personality, then a strong and kind heart. To add some mystery to his story, I made him forget his past, and... ta-da!
Daniel's "prototype" was born!"

Black and red text on a white, paper-like background. Below the text is a full body portrait of Daniel wearing his combat armor; his left arm is also partially transformed into its Demon form.
The text reads:
"I wish I could say more about what this "prototype" version of Daniel was like... But that will be a story for another time.
No spoilers! ;)
I can say though that "prototype" Daniel went through many changes before becoming the final version you see today.
Despite that, his kind heart is still as strong and heroic as ever!"
