Where We Meld
Va'Thrak is a laboratory on RATHOS located in the Foreverthought mountains. In the coming of age tradition known as The Meld, teenagers are subjected to their first portion of what the inhabitants call Black Snow, a parasidic swarm of particles that corrupts a person into becoming part of a hivemind society ruled over by the god of spores.
Rathos came to be as a way to work collaboratively while also respecting the individualistic nature of the MMP1. Together, we created a fantasy world where everyone got to design a small section, respecting a coherent art style while also bringing distinct individual ideas for their own portfolio piece.
