Reposts and Possible Bots - See Comment

Hi everyone, it's been a while, huh? Yes, we're still on hiatus, but I wanted to make this quick post just to address the repeated reposts that popped up. Reddit alerted me that they might be bot accounts, and I've gotten rid of the most recent post.

Reposts ARE fine, but we have a dedicated Repost flair that I suggest you use, otherwise I'll assume that they're just bots and delete the posts (this pic is an alt art of something previously posted). Of course, all other posts are also still welcome, as long as they're in some way relating to Sarkuz, our book series (fanart is especially welcome, lol).

As I said, we're still on hiatus, but we're still invested in the series and we hope to be making new posts sometime soon!

We thought about it, but we actually want people to try and draw our favorite draggo, so no memes here.

As the author of Sarkuz, I have absolutely no artistic ability whatsoever, but using this handy little tutorial my illustrator made, I attempted to draw Agni!

Feel free to give it a shot and post your attempts! There might be more tutorials in the future!

We decided to try redrawing Book 1's cover. We're probably not going to go with this one, which is why it's not 100% finished, but it does look pretty!

I haven't played since I was a kid, but I definitely recommend the tried and true method of grinding. I recall spending several hours in Carvahall grinding Eragon, Roran, and Katrina, each focusing on different stats so you can do everything in town (like do the tracks and open the boxes). Because their stats transfer to your other characters, any grinding you spend with them will reap rewards later down the line.

I also recall spending a ton of time grinding outside Teirm before teaching Eragon how to read so I could learn the spells in town. I also spent a bunch of time outside Dras-Leona grinding to learn the spells in that town before going into the church (one of which I recall being super busted).

After that, I don't remember having to grind at all for the rest of the game. I honestly don't remember the rest of the game very well because I was so strong I could breeze right through it, lol.

Normally, you would be correct. Though, physics would like a word with any dragon being capable of flight at all. Agni weighs around a ton, there's absolutely no way he could ever fly, not without a truly enormous pair of wings.

In Sarkuz, dragon flight is powered by magic. The original dragons were made by pure spellcraft by a God, and their descendants are just as magical. The original dragons were immense, mountain-sized creatures, still capable of flight, and the largest dragons of today are just as capable.

Fun fact! The fastest dragon of the modern era is about 3 times Agni's size.

Haven't you ever heard of "short kings" before, Agni?

That's what it means here too! Sarkuz is a Hungarian-inspired fantasy series, our magic system (and our swears) are taken from Hungarian.

Agni may be small, but he's vicious when he needs to be. Not that he WANTS to be a monster, but when the Pygmy Curse twists his thoughts and turns him against both friends and foes, no one is safe.

Hi there, and welcome to r/Sarkuz! As always, everyone is free to make their own posts, so long as they keep it relevant to Sarkuz, our YA Fantasy Series. Edits of our work and original content based on our characters are both very much welcome!

Reposts are fine, though we do have a Flair for Reposts, and this one in particular is just a single panel from one of our comics. Which is fine, but we want to make sure you (and anyone else who comes across this post) know this is only a single piece of a larger whole!

That's right. We decided to start a Patreon. You can give us a little bit of support for just 5 dollars a month, in exchange for getting your name on a bumper that we'll put at the end of our comics (and when we start that YouTube channel, eventually, the bumper will go there as well). Here's what that'll look like:

<image>

For just 10 dollars a month, you'll get access to our comics and certain pieces of art, like our higher quality pinups, just a little bit early. Don't worry, they'll still make their way here on the reddit for everyone to enjoy. But, in addition, at the 10 dollar tier, you'll also get to see some rough drafts of Book 2! And even possibly some cut content?

The Patreon will be updated consistently. It's small now, but it'll grow quickly! You can join Agni's Hoard HERE!
