Hey all! It's been 7 months since my last studio gig, and I'm still on the hunt! My unemployment ran out last week, so I could really use some income. I know things are about to move to a snails pace in the industry with the holidays, but I'm not slowing down!

Found an old email account I haven't used in a decade, and there's a single email from an unknown user with a text file that says... this. I'm unnerved and intrigued.

Saw this dystopian display at LA Comic con this past weekend.
A digital necromancy AI of Stan Lee that you have to pay money to have a completely soulless conversation with. What the hell are we even doing here.

Shelliot von Turtleton is the cowardly and pompous leader of the Royal Reptilian Navy. He thinks reptiles are better than rats, and that they don’t deserve to live in the sewers! Booooo!! 👎

Babe wake up, new piRATe’s just dropped.
Meet Wedge! This cute little cheese fly can track down cheese from a mile away with his nose. In fact, he’s like a living compass! He’s always hovering around Izzy, acting like her little parrot.

Another piRATe coming at ya!
This dear sweet himbo is Wensleydale. He’s not only the muscle of the piRATe crew, but also the heart… AND the appetite! His goal in life is to try every type of cheese before he dies. He’s at 2 out of 1800…

Our second piRATe reveal, it’s the legendary Captain, and Izzy’s idol, Grease Gorgonzola!
Grease was once a chivalrous Captain who stole cheese to feed hungry rats. But something changed in him, and now he only feeds himself. Hopefully Izzy can change him back!
