Surprisingly, no! Chios are a genetically engineered species of creatures built from combined human and animal DNA.
Although, if you ask some of the Chios themselves, they might relate their creation myth to you instead.
What we do know for sure, is that they’re kind of cute.

Interesting question! Chios don’t have any really specific spiritual beliefs, but rather each individual tends to form their own beliefs and conclusions. Some believe in an afterlife, some don’t.
As to whether there’s an actual afterlife for Chios, well, that’s about as easy to confirm as it is for humans! I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

Hello there fellow chio! As you can clearly see, I am a chio just like you and certainly not a human in a chio suit. So, how about we talk about normal chio things?

New chapter 3 pages? Didn’t chapter 3 happen years ago? Well, technically, yeah, but last year I breezed through the chapter and made some improvements to the artwork for both print and PDF books! A lot of the work was color adjustments, but the pages have also been re-lettered and generally given better consistency.
Right now, Chio Club members are getting new batches of these pages every Friday! They’ll eventually make their way to the regular site sometime in 2022, but they’re a major example of the kinds of work we’d like to accomplish on fixing up the website and pages via our latest Chio Club goal! If we can get to $100/month in Chio Club memberships, I can start doing this work for ALL of the Follower archive. We’re a third of the way there already!
As an example of what’s changed, take a look at this before and after:

Follower was included as a featured comic on The Duck, one of the mirror sites where the comic updates with “rerun” pages every day! The Duck (formerly DrunkDuck) is a long-running webcomics community where tons of comics you probably know got their start, and where you can find completely new stuff to read. You can read Follower on The Duck, although it’s currently behind the main site. Thanks again to The Duck for featuring our comic! It means a lot to both of us!
Subscribing to Follower on any of these sites helps us reach new audiences and readers by showing the ever-important algorithm that people actually like the comic, especially on Webtoons. You also get the added bonus of notifications when a new page goes live!
It’s Creator Days on Itch.io once again! That means that for today only, we get to keep 100% of the profits from all purchases made in our shop! Itch is giving up their usual fee just for today. Thanks, itch!
Follower is a story that appears on the surface to be all gloom and doom and military dystopia, but at its heart it’s a story about learning to not always accept the world as it’s given, and the importance of trusting yourself, and finding those around you who you can trust just as closely.
Only one more page to go in the chapter! The latest Follower page is up! Visit the main Follower site to catch up, or visit our Discord to chat with other readers!
