I'm not pulling out of the driveway. We all know what that means. It's time for other drive to work at home edition.

So a lot of times I use these for interviews. So today I've Emily Tang with us who led the creative team for Duskmoren, the World Building team. And so we're going to talk all about the making of Duskmoren. Hey, Emily.

Hello, I'm totally not driving while I'm doing this also.

It's a very stationary drive to work. Okay, so let's start to the very beginning. So, when did you

first get involved? What's your earliest involvement with Dusk-Marn? So I was brought on during the

vision phase. So Doug Byer was leading vision, but I was, it was already planned that I would take over as set lead once has moved into like, the point where we start to write the world again and everything.

definitely expanded on it too because like as you can tell from looking at the cards that we're not

just doing like the 80s and 70s tropes it's not just like the campy horror of that time it's like

we are we're we did get a little more modern out with our inspiration.

So we're pulling up some of the more like, um, uh, I guess we went into like video games also for

inspiration and then like creepy fossa's like um that sort of stuff because the thing

that horror is like it's what is terrifying is to people is constantly changing and evolving so
