The Waylanders Update #8, $63,710 and Counting

The latest Kickstarter update for Gato Salvaje Studio's party-based RPG The Waylanders introduces us to the game's giants, the Fomorians, and their playable Half-Fomorian descendants. The update also announces a new developer livestream, as well as a “refer-a-friend” program that will allow its participants to get free add-ons and reward tier upgrades. Check it out:

The Fomorians are the original immortal inhabitants of Ireland. After a long, bloody war with the Tuatha de Danaan, they were exiled to a small part of the Mourian Otherworld. Most humans immediately find them sinister-- Fomorians are giants compared to all others, and their exile has forced them to subsist by turning to cannibalism. Their king, the largest of the giants, has the ability to regenerate, so they feed on him in order to survive.

Despite these horrors, the Fomorians are a deeply honorable people, and they've accepted their defeat as their destiny.

Half-Formorians are the descendants of both the Fomorians and the Tuatha. They are the tallest character race that you can play in The Waylanders.

If you play as a Half-Fomorian, your character will have grown up a second class citizen in the Mourian underground, with little knowledge of the outside world. You'll look human enough to most people... though perhaps incredibly tall and a bit odd. As a vassal of the Mourians, you're their gun-for-hire mercenary who has fought on their side in various conflicts throughout time. You arrive in Ireland as a bodyguard, but also as a warning-- that the Mourians remember what the Tuatha did to the Fomorians.

By the middle ages, the Fomorians have overtaken their Mourian jailers and now rule the Otherworld. When humans peek through the old, decrepit Mourian doors, all they can see are monstrous figures surrounded by endless fire.
