Zephyr

A Xiaoven Zine

FAQ's

What is a Zine?

A Zine is a collection of fanworks, ranging from fanart to fanfiction, featured in a magazine-like format and often representing a theme/ship.

Who will you feature?

Zephyr will feature artists, merch artists, writers as well as musicians.

What is the theme of Zephyr?

Zephyr is a ship-centric zine, and will be focused on the relationship between Xiao/Venti of the Genshin Impact universe.

Is this Zine SFW or NSFW?

This is an SFW, PG-13 zine, which means that all content produced will be completely safe for work. This means no sexual content, no graphic displays of violence or extreme gore, though it may still contain non-sexual nudity as well as mild blood.

Is this Zine Digital/Physical and For Profit/For Charity/Free?

Zephyr will be a Physical, for-charity zine!

Will other ships be included?

We are looking to feature just Xiaoven in this zine, meaning that all other pairings should be completely platonic!

Are you looking for Mods?

Yes! We will be searching for an art mod.

Are you looking for interns?

Yes! We will be looking for an extra intern to join our team!

How many contributors will there be?

We are aiming for 30 contributors, excluding guests, consisting of 8 writers, 4 merch artists, 2 musicians and 15 artists.

Will contributors be compensated?

As this is a for-charity zine, any and all profit made will go towards charity. However, all contributors will receive the full digital bundle (PDF Zine + Merch + Music) and we will aim to provide them with a physical copy of the zine + full bundle as well.

Will minors be allowed to apply for this zine?

Yes. As long as they are eligible for Discord’s TOS, they will be allowed to apply for this zine.

Can you apply for multiple positions?

Yes, but you will only be accepted for one of them.

What will happen in case the zine does not break even? (Not enough money is made to provide all contributors with a physical copy)

All contributors will be offered the zine at production cost!
