A chelka is a magically-powered construct in the world of Ink Adept.
Chelka are silent and never speak. To communicate with their creators and others, they tap using a variation of Morse Code. They are powered by glyphs on forehead, wrists, and ankles. For special instructions, most chelka have an area on their head that is rewritable.
Chelka MUST be built entirely from earth materials, such as:
Dirt
Clay
Twigs/branches
Sap
Diamonds
Bugs, beetles
Bones
Etc.
In the Cold Lands, chelka are used for a huge variety of mundane and/or dangerous jobs. Check out the World of Ink Adept page to learn what a few of these jobs are!
Heading into the last couple of weeks before the Ink Adept eBook launch, I'm having a contest:
