DevLog 5: Meet the Cast: The Fratwolves

Hey hey, Andy here again.

Happy Friday!

Today we are going to learn about the first gang you encounter in Scaravan 66: The Fratwolves.

Loud, aggressive, athletic, and dumber than a bag of jock-straps. The Fratwolves are a gang of college football players who intentionally became infected with lycanthropy to get that extra edge on the field. The original werewolf bite was provided in a deal with the devil, which came with the hefty cost of eternal servitude, but can you really put a price on the best football season of your college career? Everything would be going perfectly, or rather it would be, if they could just get practice in or stop missing their games. Unfortunately, one little annoying Road Reaper keeps driving off of her section of Route 66 and into the territory the Fratwolves are tasked with policing.



No time to party, no time to practice, no time for brewskis with the broskis. Being the closest gang territory to the Junkyard where the local reapers hang, and not so coincidentally where Lucky D keeps starting her carnage, the Fratwolves are most frequently called upon and therefore bothered by Lucky D. Tired, frustrated, but still pumped with team-spirit and that lycan rage running through their veins, the Fratwolves remain steadfast on stopping Lucky dead in her tracks.

That's all for today!

DevLog 4: Meet the Cast: Molly Morgue

Hey there! Andy again. Coming at you a day late because frankly I forgot what day of the week it was.

Today we are learning a little about Molly Morgue!


Mysterious and vibrant, Molly doesn’t have any regrets from life. Death-obsessed and with a dark sense of humour, Molly has never felt more at home than in the after-life. Once a doghouse bass player with dreams of being in a Psychobilly band, in life she aspired to raise the roof and steal the show with her wicked bass playing, however Molly discovered that in death her instrument had the ability to raise and command the dead instead.



Frankly, as she found out, that's all she ever wanted in the first place. A captive audience who does as she bids. As a new necromancer and a lifetime control freak she enjoys the power she wields, which is not insignificant given the job that was thrust on her as a Road Reaper. Maybe the only reaper who isn’t confused or upset about how they wound up here, Molly knows not to look a gift-horse in the mouth and enjoys her new unlife as much as she can.


That's all for today! Check back on Friday to find out if I remember what day of the week it is or up from down.

DevLog 3: Meet the Cast: Mimosa Ron

Hey hello! It's Andy again!

Happy Friday! Today we're going to meet another one of the cast members of Scaravan 66: Mimosa Ron!


Former mathematics professor, Ron had only just started his retirement and was ready to live it up when he met a terrible fate along Route 66, awaking to find that he was now doomed to reap souls. Ron had only just left the workforce and found himself back in the drudgery of working life.

Determined to reclaim his retirement years and the cruise he was supposed to take, Ron does the least he possible can in order to fly under the radar of the ever watchful demons who keep the reapers in line.





While a lot of reapers are rough, tough and prefer hard liquor, Ron spends most of his time sampling the most delicious umbrella decorated tiki cocktails and having a good time. If he’s not blending a frozen margarita he’s sunning himself in the sand or putting his feet up in a hammock. In death he has discovered he has quite the knack for cocktail mixing, so much that he is able to imbue special magic into drinks that he makes. All the fun, none of the bad side-effects, but with a little magical kick to the drinker’s skills and abilities.

Always a good time, but hard to get to know the real him. He lives behind a wall of outward joy, laughter, and irresponsibility. Ron is a champion of not taking things seriously and not letting the world get in his head or in his way of having a great day.


That's all for today! Check back on Tuesday for another DevLog and be sure to try the demo and wishlist Scaravan 66 now!

DevLog 2: Meet the Cast: Scoville

Hey hello! It's Andy again!

Today we're going to take some time to meet one of the cast members of Scaravan 66: Scoville!

Scoville is a Road Reaper and a powerful ally of our hero Lucky D. He gives fire-related upgrades at pit stops that'll make even the fiercest minions of hell sweat.

Once a hitchhiker, traveling cook, and odd-jobber, Scoville could charm anyone with a word or a pot of chili. Wearing his heart on his sleeve didn’t always pay off in life, but it never made him jaded, only wiser. If bad experiences were hard lessons and hard lessons made a wiser man, then Scoville knew it all. He wasn’t one to raise his voice, but not one to roll over either. If you are lucky enough to call him friend or neighbour, you can’t pass by without being offered some of his latest experimental culinary creations or comforting favourites.



After coming to an untimely road related incident on Route 66, Scoville awoke as a Road Reaper. Forced to reap souls for what all he knew was eternity. Frustrated as anyone would be, he soon discovered he was not the only one and took great pride in giving his community of road reapers a needed touch of warmth and hospitality. He discovered that in death he had the power to imbue his food with magical properties, a by-product of walking the line between the world of the living and dead. With his new found power he could cook up a meal to the specific needs of his friends. A little cheer-up soup here, a little courage brisket there. A skill so useful (and delicious) he really solidified his position as a leader in the community.

Scoville is one of the most loved and appreciated by his fellow reapers on Route 66. Everyone always makes time for Scoville, because he always makes time for them.
