lothar at 12:00AM, July 21, 2023On plot armor
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, July 8, 2023
Ok yes. Plot armor in general is considered a mistake. With good reason. Enough plot armor and there are no stakes left in your plot, and the audience isn't worried your plot-armored characters may not make it. And if there's no suspense, there's no engagement or the ...
Tropes I love: The Bargain
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, March 19, 2022
So it's fun to rant about tropes I hate but I actually prefer to gush about tropes I love.
And one of them is what I call “the bargain”: it's really a game of wits between a (usually lawful) villain and a hero (or protagonist/antagonist, take your ...
It's the Peak of the Spooky Season!
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Oct. 30, 2021
So I want to talk about the Dread Persephone!
We are familiar with Persephone as the abducted bride of Hades, the floral, pastel-themed, light-hearted girl that brings about Spring and is the daughter of Demeter, goddess of nature and the harvest.
But is it really who she is?
No. No ...
Back From The Dead
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Jan. 2, 2021
So we've talked often about how letting a character die in a story is something that should be used very frugally, because once death occurs, it should be permanent. In most settings, death shouldn't be something that is reversible. If not, it will lose its impact, and the ...

Motivation, Ideology, Action 1
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Nov. 9, 2019
As any psychologist will tell you, no matter how it is explained, motivation is key.
There is no behavior that lacks motivation- a reason or reasons for acting or behaving in a particular way.
Even our most subconscious actions have motivations, from tics to small morning rituals.
The thing that ...
The Weather as Prop
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, Aug. 10, 2019
So the weather is very important. We all know that from our real life routine alone.
There is often a tendency, however, not to use it when it comes to the visual narrative that webcomics are. More often than not, the weather is basically perpetually clear. Daylight or moonlight are ...
Quackcast 236 - The Songcast/Drunkcast
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, Sept. 15, 2015 LISTEN!
Pitface, Banes, Tantz Aerine and Ozoneocean reunited for a repeat of the legendary Drunkcast of Quackcast 137! Almost exactly 100 Quackcasts later we hit the booze again, but this time we had a goal to pursue with our drunken ramblings: music. We decided to talk about what themes inspire ...
