Patreon Guide - Welcome to the World Of Leah! (Patreon)
Content
If you're having questions about becoming- or being a Patron, look no further!
In this guide I'm trying to summarize everything you need to know on how to get started! At the bottom of this post you'll also find a link collection that can get handy if you're a new subscriber! (Some of the content in the links are only accessible if you're already subscribed to the appropriate tier)

Benefits of being a Patron
If you've found your way here, you've probably stumbled across one of my images on social media or followed the link of the watermark on my pictures! I do share some pictures of my albums publicly in lower resolution for promotional purposes but that is only a fraction of what Patrons are getting!
There are multiple tiers (membership levels) available that you can choose from. The overall rule of thumb is: The higher the tier, the more content/benefits you receive - but no matter if you pay $1 or $9, you'll always unlock the main content of this project which are the NSFW albums!
If you haven't already- and want to know more about the different tiers and what they entail, have a look at the start page and check out the descriptions to see what they include!
Album releases
If you're new, you might be wondering when the next album will come out or what it is about. Within the last year I've had a lot of changes on how and when I released my albums and I'm still looking for the perfect schedule - but right now as you're reading this, my plan is to release one album each month with the early access release aiming to be within the first week of each month.
Throughout each month I'll post updates on the albums status to all Patrons. Supporter Tiers and up will additionally receive regular preview images to see what I have been working on recently.
There are multiple types of releases which differ from each tier.
- Early Access release: Includes the full album in 4k with- and without text. Also includes extra images that come with the regular release.
- Supporter Tier release: Includes the full album with and without text in 4k + extra images. Releases 4 days after Early Access.
- Follower Tier release: Includes the full album with and without text in 4k but doesn't include extra images. Also releases 4 days after Early access.
- Founders release: Includes the full album in lower resolution (~1280x720px). Doesn't include extras and releases 7 days after Early Access.
Special releases and preview images
- First half release: Exclusive to Early Access tiers. Includes half of the WiP (Work in Progress) album in 4k as soon as the pictures are rendered out usually between the 15th to 25th of each month (with the new schedule). Doesn't include text/dialogue.
- Loyalty Reward release: On the 2nd of each month, I'm releasing a loyalty reward as a thanks for all who continued their subscription. What this reward entails may differ each month and Patrons can give suggestions on my Patron exclusive Discord server! Usually these rewards are mini-albums (5-10 pics) or short animations. The key difference is that these rewards are the same for each Tier. All tiers get these images in 4k and on the same day.
- Preview images: These are for Supporter Tiers and up and being posted both here on Patreon and on my Discord server. Previews are low resolution and grainy renders of pictures I'm actively working on to give you a quick glimpse of what's to come. As a rule of thumb you can expect the total preview-image count to be about half of the albums final image count. I'll post more previews for the first half of the WiP album and will reduce the amount after the first half has been released to avoid too many spoilers from there on.
- Other releases: Occasionally when there's time I'll also release casual albums that are very story driven. They do not always include naughty content and are smaller in size (~10-20 pics). While they have followed the same release schedules as normal albums before - they won't in the future and will be released for all Patrons at the same time.
The Patron exclusive Discord server
If you're a Patron, you can join our Discord server in which you can follow updates even closer and chat with the community!
The main reason to join the Discord server is simply convenience. A lot of people are using Discord already as their daily platform to keep in touch with their friends over the internet and following this project is then only one click away. It is also much easier to navigate and find older content that might've gone under on Patreon. Some tiny updates may also not be worth making a separate post on Patreon about, so usually they are only being shared on Discord. (However, major updates will always be posted here)
On top of that you can use it to chat with fellow Patrons and talk about your favorite characters, albums or anything you'd like to chat about.
Story, characters and protagonists
At first glance it might look like I'm just doing random naughty albums with random characters. However, all albums and characters in the World Of Leah play in the same "universe". They are connected to each other and albums are being released on a continuous and developing timeline.
On top of that, you'll find almost all characters to have their own social media presence on Twitter which you can follow no matter if you're a Patron or not. The story aspect of this project will always be free to follow. A list of all characters on Twitter
Right now the World Of Leah features about 16 different and unique characters, 6 of them male, 10 female. The story plays in the fictional college town of Heirwood Falls and most of the characters know each other through college or for being old friends.
You'll see some characters more than others. The key example is Kendall Greene who may not be the main protagonist, but is definitely one of the main characters who plays a very important role of driving the story line ahead. Ironically, the main protagonist, Leah Benneth, doesn't have much screen time as of now - but this will change eventually as she will be the character with the most personal character development.
The World Of Leah Story & Lore
The story and lore behind the World Of Leah goes much deeper and given it isn't necessarily Patron exclusive, I wrote a separate guide on the lore that you can find below.
Story & Lore Guide: https://www.patreon.com/posts/46689169
It includes all info on how to follow each characters, how to stay up to date and how the story of this alternate reality works - definitely worth a read if you're interested in more than just the naughty side of this project!
