    Draft of the first act is coming along nicely, definitely the best work we’ve done by FAR.
    The ODC and the No One Initiative starts out as a billion dollar program into tens of billions.
    Now originally, there is 5 squads of No One soldiers each having 6 members. Alpha, Beta, Delta, Epsilon, and Omega.

    But now it consists of 11 squads!
    Alpha, beta, gamma, Delta, Epsilon, zeta, theta, iota, kappa, sigma, and omega

    What I’m thinking is that the government realistically wouldn’t spend so much time and effort into a program for 30 people and maybe 10K jobs. But 66 and 60k jobs? That feels more realistic.
    But that means a FUCK TON more work. Because you see with it originally being 30 No One soldiers we had 16 of those with detailed backstories and personalities with 14 left to go, now there is 50 more characters to detail out.

    But how does this relate to the movie Epsilon?

    Short answer; it doesn’t.

    It takes place all in the same universe but ultimately wont be important to the plot of Epsilon for 99.9% of it. I’m just giving crumbs or lore updates n such to keep the thought of Epsilon in everyone minds. Dont let the flame die out.
    There is a reason for making all these characters detailed for the No One novels but I can’t really reveal why. What I can say is that some of those will appear for a scene or two here or there for (I hope at least) most of those characters I’ve made. Regardless if its them passing by in a hallway or on a mission together. I know in the end its going to add basically nothing to the overall plot and most wont even be remembered but it makes the world have so much more depth and realness to it and it really has helped to make the world feel immersive and that these side characters you only see for a moment are real people and not just other random soldiers.

    I know I’m blabbling but yk, the flame. Can’t let people forget. I will shove this down yalls throat till I die. Love yall~
