Sales of merchandise with an artist’s work will be paid royalties, in most cases, totaling fifty percent of the profits of the item, with the balance being re-invested into the LoM community.

LoM, as an official OSC Project, is driven by a truly altruistic goal of further advancing the talents and audience of yet undiscovered artists, writers, programmers, musicians and more. As a community, LoM strives to provide guiding assistance, tutorials, critique, audiences, community support, financial compensation and virtually any other support necessary to further advance them on their quest of excellence in their chosen artistic field.

The LoM fantasy community of various fields of creative talents is able to provide artists with valuable feedback, guides, downloads, resources and even one-on-one help. Several budding artists started their journey with Mernac as writers, but due to the exhibits of phenomenal art discovered and shown on Mernac, have developed a thirst to learn more about how to make art themselves.
