Youโre an urban legend in a county full of them.
Edit: This pinned post is going to be under construction for a while as I change things over for book 2. The link above is going to (eventually) start redirecting everyone to my profile page, rather than redirecting to one specific game.
I am also going to start making a list of "spoiler" tags, so those who want to come here and engage with the blog but not be spoiled can add those tags to their block list and that SHOULD hide the posts. This is only going to apply to recent posts, though, so if you go deep diving into the archive you're doing so at your own risk.

This is the development blog for the interactive fiction called "The Second Sight", which you can find on itch.io at the link above!
This is my first IF project, although I've been writing original stories and fanfiction for years.
I've included the story description and character profiles from the itch page below the cut.
This blog will be a combination of development info, images and music that I associate with the story, and other musings.
Fair warning, there might be spoilers from the latest chapters here, so I recommend catching up before reading too far.
Asks and submissions are always open.
(Content and trigger warnings at the bottom.)
Youโre an urban legend in a county full of them.ย When you were thirteen, you were found passed out in the road by one of the local cops. No missing persons report. No fingerprints on file. No memories. Just a name.
Oh, and some bizarre psychic powers.ย
You're content with simplicity. You like your isolated cabin and helping Carter track down missing persons.ย You know that in theory there are more people like you out there, but you've never wanted to look behind the curtain to find out.
However, with the disappearance of a local teen named Casey Powell and a recent attempt on your foster father's life, your serene, isolated life comes abruptly to its end and a new chapter begins.
โคโคโค
The Second Sight is an urban fantasy story, where you step into the role of a psychic whose strange powers have always separated them from others. Those same powers will drag you down the rabbit hole and into a world that is both familiar and foreign to everything you know. A world filled with magic, witches, fae, demons, and the unknown.
You can immerse yourself in the story by customizing your protagonist's general appearance, choosing how they interact with others, and whether you lean on logic or intuition to problem solve. There are three love interests planned (more may be added depending on player reception and feedback), the genders of which will be selected by the player upon meeting them.
Characters
Jacob Carter
Age: Late forties
Race: Human. Definitely.
Gender: Male
Temperament: Carter radiates grizzled, old bastard energy and despite being the least paternal person in the world, he is your adoptive father. While harsh and aloof on the surface, he is also fiercely protective of you and has bent over backwards to give a decent life to a kid that isn't even his. He doesn't talk about his life before coming to Herman County and you haven't asked him, though that might change soon enough...
โคโคโค
Renard/Rowan
Age: Appears to be in their late twenties or early thirties
Race: Human. Maybe.
Appearance: Tall and slender, white-blonde hair, and gold eyes.
Temperament: Playful and witty, talking to R always feels like a game of cat and mouse and you can never be sure which role is yours. Part sad clown, part trickster, and always maddening to work with, the only things you can be certain of with R is that they probably know what they're doing. Everything else is up in the air.
โคโคโค
Zander/Zora
Age: Late twenties/Earlyย thirties
Race: Human. Mostly.
Appearance: Umber brown skin, black locs, grey eyesย
Temperament: Gentle and resolute, Z isn't what you imagine when you think of an agent of the mysterious Magic and Anomalies Bureau. Kind, soft-spoken, and exceedingly polite, Z is Carter's former apprentice and something about them puts the old man on edge.
โคโคโค
Unknown aka "The Kestrel"
Age: ???
Race: Definitelyย notย human.
Appearance: Tall, beautiful, elegant, with black hair and blue eyes.
Temperament: The Kestrel is a complete unknown. It's impossible to say whether they are a lethal ally or deadly enemy, but either way they are a powerful dreamwalker. You don't know how long they've been watching you, but you're willing to bet that it's been longer than you're comfortable with.

Fuuuuck dude I got drunk last night and tried to take down the villain on my own and now heโs texting me some โIโm the only one allowed to defeat youโ shit bro what do I do
Today is not my birthday, so why am I receiving such a gift??! ๐ญ
Seriously, thank you so much for drawing this arrogant asshole, I absolutely love him it! ๐๐๐ป
This is actually very close to how I imagine Roderick, and you did such a great job capturing both his appearance and personality [like... sir ๐ณ๐ฅต๐ซฆ].
And I love your choice to place the light source behind him to cast him in shadow, it suits his character so well!
I've saved your artwork in my special SS fanart folder, and I'll treasure it forever! ๐๐๐
Thank you so much for drawing Morgan and sharing your version of him, I don't just love it, I'm internally screaming and staring [not even respectfully ๐ซฆ]!
I'm truly honored and so grateful for the time and effort you put into bringing my characters to life through your art, and of course, I've already saved it to my special folder! โค๏ธโ๐ฅ
I'm not supposed to giggle and blush and stare like a little girl, but I am, because EXCUSE ME, why is he so hot?! ๐ณ๐
Given that Sebastian is very aware of the effect he has on others, I love how you capture his subtle, lopsided smirk with the underlying hint of smugness that is both very accurate and completely irresistible! ๐
But seriously, thank you for yet another beautiful drawing. This is the third time in a row you've made my day by deciding that my story is worth your time and effort, and it means more to me than I can possibly convey ๐
OMG, Lex looks so handsome!!! ๐๐ Thank you so much for drawing him again, you've made my day once more!
I'm going to keep staring at it from time to time because L smiling like that while texting with the MC is actually canon [though lately, they're more sad and worried because of the MC], and you captured it so accurately!
L do it subconsciously and isn't even aware of it, which has sparked a lot of questions about whether they look so happy because they were texting their significant other [hitting Parker's sore spot, hehe].
Thank you for bringing me so much happiness and for sharing your art! ๐ฅน
...It seems like I've been served a feast for my eyes today.
Seriously, thank you for spending your time and effort to draw Roderick again [especially like this ๐ซฆโค๏ธโ๐ฅ]! I love it so much and can't even put into words how rewarding this feels! โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
On a side note, R kind of has to bathe/shower more often, because they tend to do business in aโฆ messy way.
My sis and I are creating an online bookstore based in the Greater Vancouver area, in BC, Canada. Our webiste is close to going live. We are called Cosmos, Valour, and Vows. Our shop focuses on sci-fi, fantasy, and romance.
While we want to carry booksellers and niche titles, our aim is to get more books from BIPOC, independent, or Canadian authors.
We have a starter fundraiser to help us build our inventory. Link is below.
Any donation is greatly appreciated ๐
