Welcome to the world of Honmon!

What is Honmon?

Honmon has two meanings:

  1. hon means "book" in Japanese. 📚 mon is short for "monsters" 🦄
  2. Honmono means original work in Japanese. 🖌
Honmon is an original work of fiction about the power of ideas brought to life as monsters. 🐨
It tells the story of creators learning how to create—putting their ideas out into the world as monsters, born from the words they write, and the pictures they draw, on the page.


HONMON & HONMONER CHARACTERS

All kinds of Honmon exist, in a variety of shapes and sizes! They assume the form of animals, plants, inanimate objects, and monsters, limited only by the imagination of their creators. Anyone can capture weak clichés and common knowledge from books, but only through shared experience and life application can Honmoners raise Honmon into strong, original partners to call their own.

THE WORLD OF HONMONIA

Honmonia encompasses a magic school with 13 campuses surrounding a central hub. Students from across the world converge to study the art of capturing, summoning, and raising Honmon to live alongside them. The school first matches students to their home campus, then enrolls them in courses to cultivate their creativity and storytelling skills. Venturing from library to library together with Honmon borne from their books, students grow from novice creators to fully-fludged Honmoners during their 8 years on campus!

Who can enjoy Honmon?

In short—everybody! 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

But it mainly targets the middle grade child — or child in all of us — that wants to learn how to create. Aspiring writers, budding filmmakers, game designers, artists, anyone eager to put their creations into the world!
