Spritepaper — The Foreword.
The Preface, laying out the origin, vision and purpose of Sprite Club; a ‘Choose Your Own Adventure’ story in which you will embark upon a journey into the Sprite Realm.
“After receiving a mysterious invitation to an organisation known as Sprite Club, you will embark upon a journey through the initiation process to enter the Sprite Realm, and in doing so be sorted in to one of 5 Classes, based on your personality and the choices you make when faced with obstacles on your adventure. Will you be a Warrior, Mystic, Adventurer, Muse or Rogue Sprite?”
Only those intrepid candidates who are brave of heart, strong of mind and devilishly curious dare accept an invitation to join us.
Authors Note
Our intention is to tell a story in which each individual is as much an author of their own fate as we, the architects of this tale are. Our unique minting process will be an interactive, narrative driven personality quiz which will classify prospective Sprite Club members as one of 5 distinct Classes. However this is truly only the Prologue to the story we wish to tell, one who’s narrative is uniquely personalised to each individual and who’s scope is endlessly vast.
What are Sprites?
Sprite Club NFT is a collection of 7,777 NFTs on the Ethereum blockchain, each unique in their combination of randomised, hand drawn traits. The prospective Sprite Club member will participate in our personality quiz Minting Adventure, and generate a Sprite custom to the class their decisions assigned them.
In this way, our community impacts the very narrative they have been participating in, for Class rarity will be entirely determined by the results of those who experience our minting adventure. This ratio of rarity will then be applied to any NFT an individual may want to mint in addition to the Sprite of their assigned class, which will be rolled out at random.
Any Sprite you own can act as your principle character through your future adventures into the Sprite Realm, bridging the physical and digital world. Our minting process is simply your gateway into a limitless possibility of future quests, each with more varied choices and outcomes, true to the Choose your Own adventure narrative at the heart of the story we wish to tell.

An Introduction — a little about the authors:
Sprite Club was founded by a group of likeminded individuals who wished to provide the nostalgia, whimsy and escapism of classic role playing games and choose your own adventure stories through the new medium of digital ownership.
Our core founding team is made up of 8 individuals with a plethora of skillsets and interests in the area of Web 3, as well as traditional experience in brand-building, marketing, strategy and the creative arts.
Our Creative Director, Artist and Co-Founder, Ofelia, has been chasing creative pursuits and giving life to curious and colourful creatures in her imagination her whole life, before discovering a natural talent for digital art, storytelling and world building. Our CES (Chief Elder Sprite), Clancy, is a seasoned jpeg enthusiast with a wealth of experience launching projects and participating in Web 3.0 (when it was just called “Crypto”).
Don, a jpeg degenerate, with experience working at a DeFi protocol brings a wealth of knowledge, having experienced project launches and cycles since Hashmasks sparked a wave of innovation in NFTs. Partnered with Jafo’s experience working in e-commerce strategy and notable participation in several successful NFT communities over the last year.
Our in-house Legal Counsel, Mr Moon, ensures that we are regulatory compliant (where those regulations exist) and will help us to tread carefully along this adventure as we grow. Grey Sprite, Seany B, joins us on this journey with decades of past experience building brands, leading marketing efforts and working with DeFi projects on their launches and growth efforts.
Krishan, Founder of Kiba Labs, a product development studio based in London joins us, alongside Arthur, an ex-playstation developer with an all-round understanding of Web 3 development. Krishan & Arthur have years of experience developing smart contracts and launching their own NFT projects including milliondollartokenpage.com, and recent launches on Solana.
The Road(map) Ahead
Our unique minting process is truly just the gateway into the Sprite Realm, and our plans for where the journey of Sprite Club NFT members will go are multi-pronged. While this project is first and foremost deeply rooted in a passion for NFTs, we also want to establish ourselves as a trailblazing brand that bridges the Web 3 and mainstream worlds, branching out into the physical realms of fashion, multi-media content and more.
While the outline of our roadmap is resolute, we consider Sprite Club an exercise in community driven story telling, thus we are deeply purposeful with the order in which we reveal details of the story. It is essential to the coherence of the narrative we are telling that you experience the Prologue, before we reveal the events in store for you in, say Chapter five.
As storytellers, we are nothing without the community that helps shape the narrative we are creating. We strive at all points in this process to provide you with transparency, and to retain flexibility in our plans, to allow us to tell the story our community would like to participate in.
How do I join the Sprite Club?
In terms of building community, we have prioritised gradual organic growth. We seek to create a supportive space, and inclusivity is the absolute cornerstone of our values as a team and brand. We have been blown away by our Discord community, who are beautifully passionate, welcoming and enthusiastic. We hope to create a global network of friends to share enjoyment in the world we are crafting and escape together into the adventures you will embark upon.
If you have any further questions or want to get involved, do not hesitate to contact us on Twitter and tune in for our weekly Sunday Sprites Spaces where we host giveaways and competitions, answer ridiculous NFT themed hypotheticals and take questions from the community.
Thank you, we are so excited to go on this adventure with you.
