《Wolf of the Wasteland》Author's Notes - 2 - Red-Eyed Wolf Discussion
Advertisement
Hi there. I'm Fox, the author of Wolf of the Wasteland.
In our last chapter (12, Black Feathers) Wolf enters another state of mind, sort of like activating an ability or going ham/super saiyan. It doesn't really do her much good in the end. The reeling rifles disrupt her fighting style too much for her to combat the men like she usually does, which gets her trapped and desperate for the first time in the series.
What are your opinions of her entering this next-level ability/form? What about that chapter?
Wolf's red-eyed mode is rather brutal. She sort of enters a primal instinct/destroy everything mode by blacking out and surrendering herself to the chaos. What's your opinion on it? What it too gruesome/unappealing for Wolf's character?
Wolf has usually been in control of the situation until now and it made me iffy about some of those sequences. I was sitting there like 'but.. Wolf wouldn't handle the situation like that?!' for some of the scenes in that chapter, but she was left with not many options. She fell into a trap the moment she came into contact with the Mannequin from earlier, possibly it was being carefully watched or hunted.
The reasoning behind her getting caught in the end is that to grow and meet others she sort of has to be forced to. We all know she wouldn't give anyone the time of day in this period of her life- solo has always worked out too well for her, but now that she is a captive we will get to see some growth. She's locked out of her element and there's not much to lose when you're a prisoner.
Thanks for reading! Don't forget to comment below! :)

What Was Lost Outside Time
What happens to a mind, subjected to an infinite span of time? What remains, when it is taken out again? This is the story of an individual reborn after such time has passed that nothing remains of what it was; an individual who must learn once again what it is to be, beginning with awareness of the idea of awareness, and growing from there; from awareness of self, to awareness of others, to awareness of society, and on. This is the story of a mind; growing, learning, adapting, and becoming more. -- Currently the first three chapters are - well, kind of experimental. I both like and hate these; they were a pain to write, and I'm told by at least one person that they're painful to get through, but I think something like them is necessary to set one of the basic ideas about the way the story is written. It gets slightly more normal after that, the first arc of the story is rather "battle school", and I think I may need to go back and edit it - the characterization didn't end up working out as well as I had originally hoped, unfortunately, and ended up rather weak to my eye. I may go back and add a sub-plot or two, depending on how well I can handle the intended perspective shift of the second arc. -- Currently on hiatus, in case that wasn't obvious. I'm debating between rewriting large portions of what I've already written, and just finishing out the story, but either way, I don't actually have a clear idea of what I want to do right now. If I'm still feeling the same way in a few months I'll put a chapter up explaining where the story was going, maybe, so the people who have enjoyed it can know where the story was intended to go, and close this out.
