New Horror Character
Do you know that feeling when you're home alone, but swear someone is there? Or that dark figure you sense is in the room just as you are trying to fall asleep? Do you know why the hairs stand up on the back of your neck?!
It's because of the Shadow, our newest addition to our Horror race. This character will be fun to control on the battlefield to horrify your opponent; however, make sure to leave the Shadow in your game and don't let it get in your head...it specializes in sleep paralysis and night terrors!
This character was the Summoners Fate Newsletter exclusive first look from February. To make sure you don't miss the next first look, sign up for the newsletter here.

Today's GameDev
Today Ross is beginning the exciting task of building multiplayer!
He is using PlayerIO for this, and learning how to use their services. As he built multiplayer for our last turn-based strategy game Hero Mages, he is confident in his ability to get this done smoothly.

Sunday Sketch
Sunday's Sketch is our Steamclock Sentinel!
A little about this new playable character in development: when summoned, the Sentinel travels to the past. In game, this will work by rewinding to the start of your opponent's turn, giving them the opportunity to replay it, except now there's a giant robot in their way.
A fun, powerful character, and a blast for those of you who enjoy time spells. What do you think?

Male Characters
We recently featured some of our playable women Summoners Fate characters. Now meet some of our playable men. Can you spot some NEW characters?
Which would you fill your army with?
We will have 200+ characters available to play as in Summoners Fate. These are divided between humans, humanoids, animals, creatures, summons, and undead. We've made a special effort to strive for diversity and equality so all gamers can feel included and find the band of heroes that best reflects the gamer's goals!

DevLog4 is Up
New! Ross's DevLog 4 is up: Surprise and Trap Mechanics. Check it out!
Here is a video from the article where the AI-controlled Summoner casts a surprise Ice Trap, then they use their knockback ability to push my gladiator into it, taking advantage of the trap's effect during their turn. Note: the "surprise" card art icon is placeholder.

Marauder Metalist! 
This video shows some animations for the completed Marauder Metalist a character designed by one of our Kickstarter supporters, Chris Sides. This character will be able to provide support buffs to allies. Plus, the guitar riff is so potent that smaller creatures are outright destroyed upon hearing it.
(See the development of this character here and here.)

Monday Motivation
Need some Monday motivation? We've got a card for that.
This card is Vigilant, and we love how it turned out. The "model" for it is our Barbarian. A little about this card:
VIGILANT
> Celestial Spell
> Target unit gains unlimited counter attacks.

Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head...
Rainy day where you are today? It is cloudy and just started raining here in Utah - perfect weather for battling on the Summoners Fate grasslands...
Characters pictured starting top left: Ironclad Soldier, Rugged Mage, Thief, Withered Villager, Withered Dog, and Liche King
Surgery Update
We are about 9 days out from Ross's double jaw surgery, and he's getting back to game design again - wahoo!
He's working on designing a really fun new reverse-empathic character. We'll reveal more about it soon.

Ice & Fire
They bring destruction to the Summoners Fate battlefield, whether in the form of wintry pain or liquid hot death...
Meet the Ice and Magma Giants, and check out their sweet axes.
Here they are upclose:
What do you think? We'll have a whole band of giants for Summoners Fate, including a Giant Skeleton, Trolls, and more, for those players who enjoy beating foes down with the larger creatures.
