Ii-wy em hotep! Welcome in peace! to Ra’s Warrior!
Ra’s Warrior & the Talismans of Time, an Egyptian webcomic for mature audiences.
Enshrouded by the winds of time and the sands of mainstream Egyptology is the Ancients’ secret. Twins, Andrea and Elise Regal, are about to brush away the grains concealing their destinies. Summoned by primeval gods and the Talisman of Time, Andrea traverses time to the court of King Khufu where she not only finds love but also becomes skilled in the arts of magic and war. Tormented by visions and her sister’s voice breaking the threshold of time, Elise becomes a pawn in a god’s game of Senet. Unaware she is the catalyst to thwart Aapep’s evil scheme, Elise must find and master the remaining talisman before time proves fatal for all humanity.
From the dazzling temples along the Nile to the unfathomable depths of the Duat join Andrea & Elise on a mystical journey through modern & ancient Egypt in Ra’s Warrior & the Talismans of Time. Meet the Pharaoh Khufu, ride with Ra through the skies of ancient Men-Nefer, walk through the Field of Reeds with Wesir(Osiris) & Auset(Isis), battle demons with Anpu (Anubis) & Bastet, and slither through the Egyptian underworld with Aapep, the God of Chaos.
How Ra’s Warrior & the Talismans of Time started.
After a lifetime of a profound love for ancient Egypt (and just as much research), I embarked on the journey of writing. Originally, Ra’s Warrior was a completed prose novel. Draft after draft never produced the results I was seeking. I think I was watching AE 2000 when it struck me. I went straight for my son’s copy of Spiderman. I did my homework and joined a few forums to learn about comics, webcomics, and graphic novels. I bought comics, tore through the library like a hurricane over Florida, and read like a demon. In my humble opinion, the most informative books about creating comics were by Scott McCloud.
I had heard about an artists’ site called Deviant Art so I signed up & put some of my 3D art up there as well as some free chapters of Ra’s Warrior. That’s when Clarissa Filice waltzed through my proverbial door. I’m very excited and honored to have Clarissa as my artist for Ra’s Warrior & the Talismans of Time. She brings a level of detail to the story that breathes life into the characters and the land of ancient Egypt.
May the Gods & Goddess bless you!
