THE OFFICIAL PARADISE ASKBLOG

Have a question for one of the Paradise 08 Zero Department members, or any of the other characters who inhabit the world of Paradise? Or perhaps you have a question for the author himself? Feel free to ask away!

Okay so what actually determines a person's 'power level' when it comes to novas? Can some people be born with overpowered abilities or does one have to train in order to make their powers strong?

There’s a character who’s going to show up soon that will explains  lot of stuff about the Novas, so I wont say TOO MUCH but here’s what I’ll say-

A Nova can’t really make their powers “stronger”, you’re born with the power you get and that’s it! But not all powers are suited for combat, and there are some seemingly weak powers that, when used creatively, can be really strong! I hope that answers your question~

Tell me about their setting! Their city! Continents? Is it similar to Earth?

you might wanna settle in for this cus its a bit of a doozy~

The story of Paradise takes place on “an” Earth- think of it as a parallel universe situation! Their Earth developed in a way close to ours, and is similar geographically speaking! But make no mistake- it’s not our Earth! On their Earth, the countries and borders of our world don’t exist.

When the Nova’s began appearing- about 60-70 years ago their time- the world was kind of thrown into turmoil. The various international governments were torn over what to do. So the Paradise Organization, led by scientist Robert Paradise, opened research facilities all over the globe, and took in most of the Nova population (which is a little over a third of the global population). These facilities eventually evolved into cities and organized societies- over the course of a few decades. Most of these were taken over by leading scientists in their individual area, and named as such.

OUR STORY takes place in the Paradise System, a series of city-states which developed from where Robert Paradise’s research first began. The Paradise System is located on their Earth about where the eastern United States and Canada are on our Earth. The cities in the Paradise system are massive, sprawling things, because people and Nova’s alike kind of kept building onto them. The story of “Paradise” takes place specifically in Paradise 08, the capital city of the Paradise system, which is more or less where New York is on our Earth.

Now the Paradise System isn’t the whole world! There are similar city-systems all across the globe, and there are countries and areas that were never enveloped by these research facilities, that lay outside the Paradise System as well! The Nova’s are seen rather differently outside of the Paradise System, but since I’m not sure whether or not we’ll touch on that in the story, I’ll leave it a mystery for now!~

Eyyy Let’s start with an about

This is the official ask blog for The webcomic Paradise! It’s run by the author. This is a place you can submit questions, either to the characters themselves(about their hobbies, opinions, etc) or to the author about the story/world of Paradise! Some questions may get drawn answers and might appear in between chapter interludes! Not all of them will though. When asking a question, please specify which character your asking about (or if you're asking the author something directly). If you're non-specific, or just say "everyone" I'll answer with Pam, Evon, and maybe one or two other P8ZD officers. Remember, aside from some violence, Paradise is a pretty Safe-For-Work comic, so please keep all of your questions within the SFW realm. Lastly, please don’t straight up ask for spoilers! Questions asking for spoilers and such will either be ignored or given a sassy answer. This is just something to help expand and build upon the world of Paradise, so let’s have fun!
