Hail there, Traveller. Welcome to the Astral. Grab a cup of tea.
Okay, now for that in normal English. Hello. I’m Zed. I write novels and I draw things. It’s great. Here’s some things that you might want to know.
What is the Astral?
The Astral is my custom built fantasy setting. It’s the setting and location of all my stories and art. The Astral is a nebula that contains hundreds of inhabited landmasses and thousands of cultures. Magic is real there but so is technology and they get along better than you’d think. There are a mix of both humans and anthro races in the setting and for the most part everyone gets along so long as they’re paid on time. The nebula has a bit magic itself and the people of the many worlds navigate it on tallships and galleons. People who live on a ship full time call themselves Travellers and manage international trade between the other nations. If you need a setting or some species names for a project or story please message me so I can tell you about my partnership system.
Do you sell things?
Sort of. I am the owner and sole proprietor of Infinity Game Studios. The company makes tabletop RPG games set in the Astral and also sells my novels. Most of my PDFs are free and I'm supporting the novels and game design part of the project with a Patreon.
You draw?
Yes. I hand draw all of the art you see here. Everything is done on a phone screen with a $2 drawing stylus in Sketchbook.
Do you code?
Yes I do. I'm working on several video games set in the Astral setting. I switched a while ago from the Unreal Engine to the open source Godot Engine and progress is going great. The games will have a ton of furry content in them.
What Order do I Read The Books In?
Good question. Everything I do is designed to stand alone as a single product. If you want a novel then start with the free version of the Astral Chronicle and read it in order. The Astral Chronicle is designed to be an introduction to the setting it's in. The game manuals can be read in any order so be picky about them and get the one you want first. There are free quickstart manuals for two of my games available below.
Do You Print Books?
I do! I print and bind all my own books. I own an incredibly high end laser ink printer that I have here in my home office. I'm using it to print and then hand bind copies of my games and novels for sale at conventions. They'll look a bit different than a factory made book but that's because they're hand bound by me.

LORE Commissions Starting Soon (G)
4 hours ago
Heyo. I finally have enough work done on the video game line that I can start with buying art commissions. Art will be used in the tabletop and video game versions of LORE and my currently unnamed NSFW social life game. I know a ton about real world history, science and mythology and the goal is to write all of it down and then have artists draw each idea as an image. Here are two samples, one without clothes and one with.
Modern China
Barbecue Joint
A rubber drone with red and brass metal components is serving cocktails at a modern Asian barbecue place. They have no clothing on and are at least partly male.
North America
Invention of Tabletop Gaming
A grey wolf with fantasy leather clothing is walking through a classic fantasy town. He is holding his hand up in a spell and there is a glowing dodecahdron showing the number 20 above it in red.
I’m going to plan this out for a week and then start finding artists next week. I can advertise here if I need to find people faster.
