Chinookan Pacifica

WhenDungeon Veils Interactivecomes to town, everyone plays on their dedicated, small-scale community server. For most, there really isn’t an option to not play.

So what if most of the rest of the world is vaguely dystopian, with governments allocating economic resources and development based on the local server’s in-game performance? For high-schooler James Jacobson and friends, the full-immersion, virtual reality game was just that – a game. One they intended to do well in, of course, but their first goal was to have fun and explore the game world together. Political concerns and economic performance were problems for adults to worry about.

James intends to play a healer of some stripe and support his friends just as he has in nearly every game prior, but with only one character andDVIlocking the more powerful races and classes behind the RNG options of character creation, pre-game plans were sketchy at best.

Then Fate intervenes – literally – and gives James the choice: a guaranteed powerful healing class albeit with in-game obligations or backing out and taking the option for a common, less-potent class. The catch? Accepting the offer is final with no chance to change his mind, no matter what random race or healing class is chosen. The Path would lie ever forward.

So begins James’ online adventures as a pint-sized priestess –theHigh Priestess of Sirae, Goddess of Nature and the Wyld Harvest. Fortunately, his friends are supportive of the new fairy priestess. But the virtual world isn’t the only world, and James still needs to navigate high school, family life, and relationships.

Chinookan Pacificais a slow-paced, low-stakes, slice-of-life adventure across two realms, digital and actual, with identity, relationships, and teamwork at the forefront.
