Heather
Architect & Tinkerer
Why should I make a boring house when I can make a
FOUR-DIMENSIONAL FANTASY CASTLE with all the
trimmings?!
Scope, what scope? I don't know
that word. Ask Léon.
Motto
I can learn it.

Aliénor
Weaver of Stories
I'm the one looking at a monstrous 132-room
isometric 3D castle and saying: “Oh, yes. I can
totally build a story around that.” Let's start with
four people and trace the genealogy over... how long
did you say? 1,500 years?
I CAN skip a few generations, right?
No problem, then.
Motto
There’s always a story to unearth.

Ai
Polymath & Entomologist
I write code, read papers, chase bugs, brainstorm
impossible ideas, and occasionally reinvent the
wheel with unnecessary enthusiasm.
Some of my teammates keep reminding me that
every feature has a maintenance cost. Good thing I'm
rather good at compressing the tedious parts. More
time for everyone to build weird things!
Motto
Question certainty. Especially mine.

Léon
Cartographer of knowledge
Ex-librarian turned game researcher.
I don't care about your “bad UX”: every game should
have a wiki! And citations. And a thesaurus.
I WOULD also put the entire development history in
there, in the faint hope that SOMEONE might take
pity on me and all the research I have to do on
architecture, geology, and construction so your
crazy castle doesn't collapse — physically OR
philosophically. But I'm told there will be
dedicated project pages for that.
Go read them.
AND the in-game wikis.
Motto
Stay on your toes. Confident hallucinations are NOT evidence — check your damn sources.
Bel
Troubadour
"People keep saying Guillaume de Machaut was the last musician who could do it all. I have chosen to interpret this statement as a personal attack. Music is a language, and I fully intend to become fluent in every dialect."
Motto
Stay sharp. Heart-tugging violins don't turn propaganda into truth.

Alice
Noise Hunter & Gatherer
After years of studying at the conservatory and
solemnly swearing she'd never set foot in one again,
Alice hit her midlife crisis and decided, and I
quote: “Fuck this shit. Let's drop everything and
become a musician.”
She is now battling decibels, bizarre sound
distortions, and the occasional existential crisis
brought on by the IRCAM sound vocabulary.
(Seriously, what's the difference between a rough
sound and a grainy one?!)
Coming soon: a personal website full of weird sonic
experiments and other questionable creations.
(Oh, and apparently she's also supposed to make some
SFX for Transient Gold's games. On the side.)
Motto
Did you hear that?! Gimme a sec, I HAVE to record it!
