The Void is waiting
Waiting to consume us in its deep, iridescent tar
Rife with threats unseen and misunderstood
Fire thrusts us forth. Hold in your ghosts.
What You Can Expect from The Void
We’re going to discuss spaceships, design spaceships, build spaceships, vote on spaceships, paint spaceships, and then everyone is gonna get a spaceship. There might even be a spaceship design competition involving Legos.
The spaceships will be theater resolution digital models. Some of these models will go directly in the film. All will form a new NFT collection exclusively for holders. The more drifters you hold and loot cards you have, the more spaceship options will be available.
Asteroid mining (whether claimed or rustled) draws many Drifters to The Void, but what else lurks in the vastness of space? Just like in the Scablands we’ll hold a new creative lab to discuss ideas on what sorts of assets Drifters might be extracting from space rocks and what other curiosities lurk in the abyss. All of this will result in new canon and new loot cards. And you’re going to want some loot to upgrade that spaceship, after all.
There’s also a lot we’re not talking about yet. But you can expect new storylines, discoveries and opportunities to evolve your characters.
There are 15 Legendary drifters in the Void including 4 Patron Saints and 5 Pirates of the Roving Terror. In addition, there are 37 Veterans of the Freight Wars mixed in. Some Sneak Peeks:
Another rare subset of Void Drifters will be created. We’re going to mint 250 Mech Upgrade tokens. Any regular drifter can be burned on a special website along with an Upgrade Token to create a Mech Drifter. Presently we’re giving out a bunch as prizes in Discord and we’ll sell the remaining after the Void Mint.
New Website
The Fringe website has a fresh new look. It’s still evolving, but we would love for everyone to check it out:
We also know that this project is large, dense and a lot to keep track of. We’re actively working on new tools that will make what’s going on more accessible to those who can’t be in Discord all the time.
The Shootout at Lykenrot
A giant creature breaches from deep beneath the surface, drawing Drifters from all over the Scablands to harvest, hawk, imbibe, and quarrel. An oral history of this chaotic event was compiled from the scattered tales of the Fringe Drifter community and their stories were captured in this original artwork by Laurie Greasley.
This artwork has been cut up into 4 NFT pieces.
Holders have been airdropped one random slice for each Drifter they hold.
If a holder has all four pieces they can assemble a full NFT.
Raffle Results
We held a massive raffle for our holders & have announced the winners. Presently !chain-flicker! is choosing which of their Drifters will be officially inserted into The Fringe movie.
