Hello! I'm Fran, concept artist and illustrator currently living in Sweden. I mostly work in character designs for TTRPGs #art Here you can see a bit more of my work & social media links! 🔗 franbautistart-comms.carrd.co

Just been listening to the first two episodes of @lastlinepod.bsky.social's Homegrown played with Solomn Vale and I'm having the best time having the worst time! open.spotify.com/show/4ADN3AB...

"You don’t spend the game wondering whether you’re a good person. You instead wonder if you are ready to kill for the island or die for it — whether it’ll be your friend, lover, or father who will hold the knife and whether they’ll smile as they do it." gamesfromthewildwood.itch.io/harvest

Who's going to #Dragonmeet this year? We'll be there with our signature mimics, gelly cube soaps, funky dice trays and more. Come by and say hello for cool wares and awkward conversation because I'm ✨bad at talking to people but really want to✨

Odds on a lvl 1 character being able to resurrect this BEAUTIFUL man?

Happy birthday to Indian #botanist E.K. Janaki Ammal (1897-1984), here with plants she studied: #sugarcane, #magnolia & eggplant. 🧪🐡👩🏾‍🔬 #histsci A trailblazer for #womenInSTEM in India, expert in cytogenetics, phytogeography, coauthor Chromosomal Atlas of Plants, 1st Indian woman PhD & early woman 🧵

This past couple of months I've got to work on some really cool projects, but I've missed out on some also cool game jams that I wish I'd had time to write for. Frankly, it's pretty rude of time to not just give me more hours in the day?

🩸 Laissez Couler le Bon Sang 🩸 #COMEONIN hits crowdfunding October 2026 in partnership with @plusoneexp.bsky.social. Thanks to @scragend.bsky.social for this fantastic cover. #trrpg #horror #carvedfrombrindlewood

#commissions | My waiting list is open for December with some new commission types! Link in the comments or profile!

An AI-written herbal medicine or foraging book is an actual hazard. The pleasantly agree with you robot does not innately care whether you poison yourself, and putting even one of those onto the market is like mixing a false morel in with your regular morels. Gratitude to ARBco for catching this.

With what's happening about gates of krystalia and UKGE, here is a reminder Fuck AI #ttrpg

This is the most fireable social media manager of All Time

How the game’s publisher can refer to their degrading insults and outlandish misinformation as ‘moderating comments’ is beyond me.
