From Mythology to Games with Strix Beltran

Strix Beltran is a narrative designer for analog and digital games.

It was after reading Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Sower that today’s guest first felt permission to start writing the kinds of stories she could see herself inhabiting. 

At Pacifica, Strix earned a one-of-a-kind Master’s degree in Mythological Studies, where she gained a unique perspective on character. Now, she’s blending that expertise together with a passion for making people feel things via the games she helps create.

How does narrative design overlap with other forms of traditional storytelling? Let’s find out.
