Gear's Turn

Narrative Designer

Gear's Turn is a speculative game that came about during a narrative writing exercise. The main purpose was to take the game mechanics from an already existing game and build a completely original and unique story around it. In my case, the game mechanics I used are from Baldur's Gate 3.

Gear's Turn tells the tale of Scout, a young Constant on a mission to uncover the truth behind his brother's disappearance ten years prior. The journey takes them across the twin art-deco inspired steampunk cities of the Citadel and Alcazar. As they begin to uncover the ugly truth that lays hidden beneath the two cities, they have no idea just what kind of danger coils just out of view.

Scout - Main Character

At the start of the game, Scout is a Junior Constant. They are using their status as a Constant to help expand their search for their younger brother, Rhyker, who was kidnapped ten years prior to the start of the game. They hold a lot of guilt and anger over the disappearance of their brother.

Quill - Companion Character

Quill is one of three Companion Characters the player can have in their party. She's a Junior Constant, several years Scout's senior. She works to prove to herself and others that she can live up to Constant Kingsley's legacy. Quill wasn't always the biggest fan of Scout, but grows to both admire and respect them over the course of their shared investigation.
