The Vast Gap Between Us pg 4 draft (commentary) (Patreon)

We're introduced to the male characters, who gave me a real hard time with their designs. I wanted Ares to be classy, gentlemanly, and kinda high-class. His friend, Xander, was inspired by the actor Dev Patel, who I very much enjoyed in The Green Knight.

Sylara is a classic music buff, most fascinated by the indie scene of the 2000's. Ares picked up a few favorites from his time with her.
