《Flight of Icarus》Update 7/23/2016

Hey!
I'm really exited to say that I finally uploaded my new story. It took me a long while of planning, changing my opinion, writing and rewriting but I'm finally semi-satisfied with the result of the first few chapters. (If I waited till I was fully satisfied, the story wouldn't be uploaded for all eternity most likely. I already rewrote the first chapters three times...)
Anyway, for those interested, I present Dream Chaser. The synopsis might not be anything special but give a chance to this dystopian fantasy. I promise it's gonna be epic. At least in my mind it is ;P
As a side note, I'm gonna give out some old random stuff I had from writing FoI like Character Sheets and some extra stuff I never uploaded.
So, here it goes:
Personalities: - This is an in-depth look into most of the main characters (Ace, Monthu, Paradox, Hawk, Aurora, Dark, Nein, L, Caro)
Characters - An updated list of characters that should contain all the people that were ever named in the story with their descriptions
Titles And Abilities - A list I was never good at and stopped updating halfway through the story maybe..
Hunt - A short half a chapter of how I imagined him hunting down the whole city some year prior to actually writing the chapter.
Drawings - Pictures I begged off of my friend when we were still in highschool (ah... that feels like it was forever ago). It has drafts for Hawk, Aurora, Paradox and even the Hound. Ace also included, even if I shared it before.
FoI Plan - Here you can see my plan for the last few volumes when I finally started paying attention to where I was going. And how once again, I did it for like the first part and then kind of just forgot all about it... P.S. It has a quote from one of the people who commented on one of the chapters. Thanks whoever you are because it might have possibly influenced my decision whether this story was going end up as a tragedy or as a saving of a lost soul.

And that's it, I've said all I've had to say. Hope to see you joining me on my new story, and if not, thanks for everything so far!
I'll be off with a short story for you all.
Once in Art class we could draw whatever we wanted and being a no good artist, I drew what was easiest. A form of a human in a wizard's robe, looking away because there was no way I could draw a human's face. So, curled lines were added for hair. Still, it was pretty empty so I drew a few lines at the bottom of the page and added wings to the robed 'human'. In the end it was an angel standing on a cliff; all white and golden while the background was in red and black hues. It was a horrible picture, I'm no artist, after all. Still, the more I stared at it, the more a couple of words came to my mind. I had been writing Flight of Icarus for some time then and I knew instantly who I was staring at. This was how I truly saw my little child.
Walking forward,
Never looking back,
Facing each day
With another lie

I'm Always Talking to Myself
My name is Zach. I’m a typical bland featureless protagonist type. The kind of guy who has purposefully few defining characteristics so that people can project whatever they want on me. Like Luke from Star Wars or what’s her name from Twilight. Most main characters are like me. Kind of flavorless blank slates because we all secretly doubt that we’re Harrison Ford, but pretty much anyone could be Mitt Romney. Yep. Yes indeed, I do spend basically my entire life running an internal dialog to no one. Usually I’m imagining that there are people listening. Like maybe philosophers from Ancient Greece, or researchers from another planet who act suspiciously like the characters from that Instagram comic with the aliens. Stupid Instagram comedians stealing my internal monologue and turning into a wildly successful enterprise which I would imagine has a vibrant merch dropshipping arm and hundreds of thousands of daily dopamine hits for loyal followers. I basically spend all of my time explaining random things to imaginary people (and aliens, and animals, and household items which have inexplicably gained sentience and frankly have some concerns about this whole existence thing). Honestly, it’s both highly entertaining to me, in that it makes me think about why we humans do all of the bizarre things that we do, but also horrifically exhausting and kind of makes you feel like you’re either, worst cast, losing your grip on reality, or best case, becoming Abed from Community. Anyway, I’m sure that I have some distinguishing characteristics, but, in the interest of hypnotic suggestion I’m choosing to omit them until I’m pretty sure that you have subconsciously come to identify with me, or until I feel like it. (By the way, in case I forgot to mention it, a higher power called Aww Thor or something told me to say that this is a slice-of-life comedy adventure and that it's set in a fantasy world with isekai and LitRPG elements.)
