My Plans for Halloween

As most of you know, I was planning on releasing "short stories" for each main character. However, these "short stories" ended up being an additional 20 chapters of content per main character. That's 120 chapters! Now, I know some of you would've loved to read those, but I did something utterly ridiculous and ended up getting my computer filled with viruses that corrupted the nearly-final draft versions of the chapters. After that, I lost all motivation I had for this. The fact that the games got an official canon and people were so kindly pointing this out to me... Didn't help. My theory and fanfiction were so gloriously slaughtered that I just couldn't fathom what I was supposed to do. So, instead of rewriting the 120 chapters of content, I'm going to do something else. Something possibly bigger than delivering the 120 chapters. Before I discuss that, however, there are two things I'd like to say.
1 - Think of Nightwatch Nightmares as an alternate universe from the canon universe. It might make it more enjoyable. Sure, no Afton, but if you look at it in the light of, "this is an alternate universe," you might like it! Please stop telling me how horrible it is and how it doesn't follow the canon to any extent. Again, I wrote this before the book came out and had no clue who Afton was.
2 - I have written an optional-to-read story continuation for Sister Location! The five-chapter-long continuation has been written and posted and I am very proud of how it turned out!

Character Profiles
I'm going to write up detailed character profiles for every main character in the fanfiction.


The Official Final Character Artwork
I know I posted, at one point, what I felt the characters looked like, but after a while of looking at it, I just wasn't happy with it. None of them had the right vibe to them. None of them "felt" like the characters portrayed in the 20 posted chapters or the 120 chapters forever lost to mankind. They felt like "first draft" representations of what I felt they would look like. It was like I took the images from my mind and simplified them to the point where they were almost unrecognizable as the final product I had decided to put out.

Now, I have absolutely no idea when all of this will be finished, but I plan on having at least one of these things finished and posted by Halloween. I hope you enjoy it.

EDIT: Sorry nothing was ready in time for Halloween. I assure you, though, I am working on it.

EDIT 2: I'm still working on this. x_x" Sorry about the long wait!
