FAQ

What is a zine?
A fanzine (zine for short) is a collection of creative works in a magazine format created by fans to celebrate a character, ship, or form of media. Zines can come in both physical and digital formats and typically feature a variety of both art and writing.
What does the title of the zine mean?
The name Shinguji—真宮寺—translates to temple/shrine, which translated to Latin, would be 'templum'. Therefore, the title Compendium Templum, through a couple layers of translation, means Collection of Shinguji.
What is the theme of this zine?
This zine is focused on Korekiyo Shinguji from Danganronpa V3. Specifically, it will focus on Korekiyo's character in a canon or AU setting.
Is this zine SFW (safe for work)?
This zine will not be sexually explicit but may have 18+ themes on par with canon material. As such contributors must be over 18+ by January 7th, when contributors are accepted.
Will this zine be digital or physical?
This zine will be digital only, due to constraints with international shipping, and because we prefer to send as much money to charity as possible.
Is this zine for charity or for profit?
This zine will be a charity project, with all profits going towards a charity that contributors will later decide on together via poll. You can suggest which charities contributors can select from using our interest check form.
Will this zine contain spoilers?
Yes, it will contain spoilers for the entirety of Danganronpa V3.
Will other characters be allowed in this zine?
Yes, it is encouraged! Ideally, we will be able to feature every character in V3 and their relationship with Korekiyo in some capacity, though this will be subject to contributor preference.
Will ships be allowed in this zine?
No. This zine will focus on friendships and other non-romantic relationships between characters. Romantic content is not allowed to be explicitly depicted.
How will contributors be compensated?
Everyone is guaranteed a free copy of the digital zine and digital merch bundle!
How many contributors will be accepted for the zine?
This will be mostly dependent on the results of our interest checks.
Can I apply for multiple roles?
Yes! If you'd like to apply for multiple roles please fill out multiple options for the question "What role are you applying for?" on the application form, and fill out the sections of the "portfolio and examples" for every option you selected.
My question has not been asked or answered.
Please reach out to us on any of our social medias via either DM or comment! We are happy to answer any more questions. Some clarifications to questions asked in interest checks may also be posted on our social medias.
