We take a lot of pride in our detailed BGs and this Senobium room is one of my faves! I wonder what stories are behind the statues at the staircase? 🤔 I’m most interested in the sickle-wielding baddie (mommy? 👀), would love to hear your theories!

[redspringstudio]

don’t ask questions u can’t handle the answers to, Leander 👁️👄👁️

which did YOU choose?👀

Even if she’s not a Love Interest, Basilea stole a lot of your hearts in Vere’s route of the Chapter 1 Preview! ♥️ Here’s a little throwback to one of the very first concept sketches of her 🥹

UHHHH BASILEA, ONE OF THESE INSTRUCTIONS IS NOT LIKE THE OTHER 😳

[redspringstudio]

Happy Birthday, Leander! 🥳 Today you’ll find him in his happy place - as the centre of attention in The Wet Wick with a drink, deck of cards, and the Adderstone hyping him up 🍻 If you’re lucky, you may be able to catch his eye for some one-on-one fun 😉

[redspringstudio]

Leander doesn't practice magic for show. He uses his talent to bring others into the Adderstone and prove that Lowtown can stand on its own. His skill rivals the Senobium's elite mages, and in Lowtown, power and hope can inspire fierce loyalty.

I head canon this as the event that made Mhin stab Vere 💀 LOL

[redspringstudio]

If you've been having a tough week, our resident doctor is here with the perfect motivation for you to push through 😉

[redspringstudio]

We finally got a look into the Senobium in the Chapter 1 Preview and it appears to be the perfect picture of elegance and grandeur! ✨ Although I suspect this beauty is surface level… What dark secrets do you think you’ll discover further down these halls? 🤔

Where would you put your MC? 👀

Our Art Team takes “go big or go home” seriously with every part of TOUCHSTARVED, and this NPC is no exception 😩💪

Looks like Leander’s got competition for biggest tiddies in Eridia 🤭

[redspringstudio]

don’t gotta ask me twice, I’m already staring disrespectfully 😮‍💨

[redspringstudio]

being the group diva is harder than you’d think 😮‍💨
