Professor Fumolatro and The Veritas League
This site is one of the more interesting uses of Flickr I’ve seen yet. It combines with a – action adventure – written by the participants as they go.
This is a participatory chronicling the lamentably fictional adventures of Professor Angelus P. Fumolatro, steampunk renaissance man, and his companions the fellow members of . Follow them as they travel the globe in a fictional future-past fighting the forces of evil while inventing and utilizing mad hybrids of Edwardian aesthetics and late-twentieth century technology.
(Creative influences include steampunk, H.P. Lovecraft, and pulp/comic/melodramatic narrative styles.)A miniscule fragment of background:
Years ago, Professor Angelus P. Fumolatro and his boyhood friend the Reverend Allon M. Oryza CSP (joined by their teacher and mentor Gunther Wasserstrom) formed “The Veritas League”. Their charge: Seek and protect the truth above all. Be on guard that the truth shall never be hidden by lies and dogma, nor shall the power of the sciences (both natural and otherwise) ever be corrupted, perverted or turned to serve the forces of evil.
Through the years the league has grown into a well connected network of like-minded scientists, artisans and craftsmen. Now, whenever sinister forces arise, the league stands ready to leap into the fray with science and intellect as their weapons and truth as their shield. Their battle cry: ”Veritas Vincit!” (Truth Conquers!)
Well done lads!
