Welcome!


Welcome to Canidae's blog, which will serve as its website until we have a real one up.

Now, first of all, you're probably wondering: what is this? Answer: Canidae is a graphic novel being created by Canadian writers & artists Rosanna P. Brost & Aleria Carventus. Right now, we're still in the pre-production & planning stage; that is, writing the script, creating & making concept art of the characters and various elements of the story, then making character or model sheets. We hope to begin production in two years.

But what is it about?

Canidae
is the story of a young wolf named Tailchaser, who grows up as an underdog in her northern pack. When she's cast out of her pack, she wanders south, befriending the fox Red before being captured by humans and made to work as a sled dog - slavery for one who was once free to run and hunt for herself. Meanwhile, a relic holy to the people of Spiriki has been cruelly stolen by an unknown stranger and in a desperate attempt to get it back, Spiriki's Princess Sierra is risking everything. But more than just the stone is at stake, because her brother Crown Prince Jarosh has vanished, along with it. At the same time, the illustrious Lady Kylarra and her ragtag fiance Lord Kai are on the hunt for both prince and princess. Paralelling all this, is the force that is the strange Lord Tayne Lyarven, who seems to work for the King of Florne. Back in the north of Florne, Tailchaser's valient sister Stardash is trying to find her, despite pack politics and is about to embark on a journey that will change her life and that of her pack forevermore...

Coming soon, you'll see all sorts of concept art and production art. Keep in tune!
