With all this comic does to capture the feeling of the Mario RPGs, it's unsurprising that she's reminding me of Valentina, if for no other reason than the shape of her head.

I was gonna say she looked like Queen Bean.

Pretty sure the (father?) is a Clarinet, judging by his black coat and buttons.
I thought that was Princess Piano at first, but yeah, she doesn't have those buttons like that.

Certainly Piano takes after her father(?) more.

I'm getting a Queen Bean vibe from Cymbal, too, although at a second glance Cymbal doesn't look that fat - just has a really wide head and skirt.

A reeeeeeally wide head at that. I get the whole instrument theme, but I only see Mayor McCheese.

Looks like that is Piano's father, and he's definitely some kind of wind or reed instrument.

Oh fine. I was going to wait for my book 1 to come in first (it's certainly taking its time), but I'll pledge now. In for a penny, in for :20bux::20bux: is the saying, I believe?

but really, how long does it usually take to ship? i've waited a good week and i've been wanting to see it because i need a reason to reread the prologue and chapter 0

Come on Cuco, you should know that the life of a hero is never that easy, and even when it is, you'll still be stuck doing a dungeon crawl and boss battle, only it'll be because you got it signed instead of because you want to get it signed!

Piano probably gets bothered for autographs constantly. And given how bad the Dream Oracle is at spreading the word Cymbal probably thinks this sounds like a bad scam.

Ooh, good call. Will she go with the classic crystal-shattering high pitch or the more modern guts-loosening brown note?

Or both at once?

Not via Kickstarter, no. Sometimes people will have a paypal donation thing set up alongside Kickstarter that counts towards the goal, but I don't think Gigi has done that.

Kickstarter handles payment through Amazon, do you not have an amazon account?

If you don't feel like setting up with Amazon, you can always just get the books directly from her shop when they print in November or so using Paypal, if it goes like last time.
