ABOUT US

We are a team of passionate creators who’ve decided to channel our love for Gale and the community surrounding his character into this project, with a goal to celebrate the wonderful creators of it, as well as highlight the voices and works of people of colour, as well as trans, queer, disabled, neurodivergent etc. within the Galemancer sphere.And in the spirit of spreading love, we intend to donate our proceeds to a handful of charities. All but one of these will be chosen from ones suggested to us by the community during our interest check, but we have already decided that the Palestinian Children’s Relief Fund, or the PCRF for short, will be a charity eligible to donate to in order to recieve this zine, as we wish to support those currently living through a genocide.Our plan is for the project to include both a SFW and NSFW section, merch, and a digital Gale themed illustrated cookbook with different dishes from around the world, as well as digital merch.

Q: Will the zine be for profit, charity or freely available?
A: ‘A Tempest of Events’ will be for charity. Some proceeds will fund the creation and shipping of physical zines and merch, but everything else will go entirely to charity and once fulfillment has been finished a proof of donation will be posted.
Q: How do I know if I can trust you with my money?
A: We do not intend to be handling any money ourselves! Simply submit proof of a donation of at least 5 USD to one of our chosen charities and you’ll be eligible to receive the zine!
Q: Will other characters be included in this as well?
A: As this is a romance zine, yes! Though Gale will always be the main focus.
Q: Are Tav or Durge / Gale pairings allowed?
A: They absolutely are! Gale / oc content is one of the parings we strive to include.
Q: Is NSFW allowed for this zine?
A: Yes! We have an optional NSFW add-on which won’t cost any extra.
Q: Are alternate universes allowed?
A: Yes! All we ask is that Gale is still recognizably himself.
Q: Do you allow trans Gale, person of colour Gale, fat Gale etc.?
A: We absolutely do!
Q: Will you include god Gale?
A: we hope to include his god ending as well, yes! But it depends on our contributing artists and writers’ desire to include him.
Q: How do I apply?
A: Applications are currently closed.
Q: Will mods and contributors be paid?
A: No, as all the money will be going to various charities. However, everyone whose helped bring this project to life will receive the zine, its digital merch and the NSFW add-on for free!
Q: Will creators retain the rights to their work(s)?
A: they will, however they are expected to not share or sell their submission publicly (this includes large discord servers) until the zine is out. Though, we might allow wips and previews to be posted some point during the creation progress to keep people updated on the progress and interested in the zine.
Q: What is the Latin text in some of your sections?
A: It's merely a placeholder! You might recognize it from other places, as ‘Loren ipsum’ is a relatively common placeholder text.
Once we are ready to unveil those sections, the Latin text will be replaced with the correct, zine related information.
