SCRAPBARD: A Slow-Burn Goblin Progression Fantasy

SCRAPBARD: A Slow-Burn Goblin Progression Fantasy

Shadow rank ~#551 in Drama↓139

When Mara first finds him, he is a nameless goblin with no family and no place among people. She gives him the name Ash. Then, after hearing music for the first time, he decides he wants something no goblin is supposed to want. He wants to become a bard. Unfortunately, the system was never built for goblin bards, and most villagers would rather reach for a weapon than listen to him play. Armed with a red scarf, an instrument made from scraps, and the true stories he gathers along the way, Ash begins creating a path the system itself does not understand. Scrapbard is a character-driven, slow-burn progression fantasy about an unlikely hero learning his craft one broken instrument, hard-won skill, and imperfect song at a time. There is magic, danger, friendship, gradual advancement, and plenty of crooked music, but more than anything, it is a story about finding worth in small, strange, and broken things.**Release Schedule currently Mondays and Thursdays @ 7:30am PST/10:30 EST/3:30 PM BST**
