# RG<>Gitcoin Comic: Next Steps

Three Areas of Focus

#### Travis:
- Review Figma jam board to distill all the divergent information into clearly articulated characters, landscapes, artifacts, and other aspects
- Structure these elements into an architecture of relations, consisting of:
- A linear timeline to track the canonical lore from comic #1 & #2
- Identify inflection points for divergent story elements
- Create a structure that identifies missing elements so we can crowd source them: names, races, classes, backstory elements, etc.
- Begin the foundational framework of the *Universe Guide* by referencing the Cellarius Universe Guide, setting up the RG party for the coming weeks
- Identify the content we have created and where there are openings for open-source input from the community
- Begin to think of prompts: format and content
- Need to enlist the artist team now! Got in contact with Mat Brinkman, Josh Blaylock as backup?

#### Jordan/Plor:
- Spearhead research on the technical/mechanics for how the open-source narrative contributions will work
- Propose step-by-step setup for how the repo will interface with the voting mechanism to illustrate how community decisions will be made
- Radicle?
- Quadratic voting?
- DAO proposals?
- Signal votes?
- Gitcoin-esque workstream (MMM)?
- Work with Travis to research how ConsenSys executed their contributor flow with the Cellarius Universe Guide
- What worked? What didn't?
- Begin to document these instructions to include in the Universe Guide
- Work with Travis to illustrate/diagram this PR workflow to communicate to a non-technical general audience
- Kyle + Ryan + Jordan will form a working group to continue to explore contribution infrastructure

#### Joe/DAO Jones:
- Further articulate transmedia opportunities
- Ranging from specifics: NFTs, PFPs
- to abstract ideas: Monster Map/Loot games, web3 tool experiments, incentive systems
- to hybrid media types: bridging 2D concepts into AR/VR spaces, LARPing opportunities
- Handle our specific suggestions for merch to produce: character collectibles from comic #3, etc.
- Work with TW+Plor to further articulate how the community contributions might be integrated into the Universe Guide
- Identify and document pain points with the Universe Guide, attempt to recruit roles from the community to fill in those gaps
- Identify fuzzy areas of our RG work and research beyond the pale to make suggestions to the Gitcoin community to jam on
- Raise these issues internally in RG and GDMC meetings
- Work with Kyle and GCMC group to iterate on economic models:
- *How do we create a regenerative/sustainable model with this comic book project?* We have a responsibility to make sure it's economically viable?
- How might we leverage additional RG personnel/resources to ensure the success of this project? From economic factors to marketing/outreach?
