Should I be studying for a Constitutional Law exam? Yes. And yet. A little vignette of Croak, Lord of Lilies, the Fisher King, doing his thing among the cypress. Will this turn into a comic? Maybe. Will I color it? Yes. #worldbuilding #dnd #ttrpg #fantasy #oc #ocsky #art

Oh my goodness, is this my first fan art? Thank you so much! And maybe the lad deserves a fancy title.

The minor god of a vernal pond. I have the urge to follow this fella while they fish and cook. Working name is "Croak," but I'm not sold. Anyone else have ideas? #worldbuilding #dnd #ttrpg #fantasy #oc #ocsky #art

Lares and Penates are Gods of Houses and or small natural features. They are quite small, the largest reaching the human knee in height, but they are able to manage their "domain" to a certain extent. #worldbuilding #dnd #ttrpg #oc #ocsky #art

The running yaga huts of the Roadrunner Coven are considered the highest form of folk magic. Often made of rammed earth, there are many variants, but they will usually contain at least one rounded surface for aerodynamics and a bird or dragon motif. #worldbuilding #dnd #ttrpg #oc #ocsky #art

A friend said pottery was a "wine-aligned" activity, and so I've made this. I genuinely believe this would be more useful for new DnD players than the existing chart. I think I'd be cocktail-full, and my current DnD character is beer-empty. How about you? #dnd #oc #alignmentchart

The Imperial Revenue Service agent attempts to collect. #worldbuilding #dnd #ttrpg #oc #ocsky #art #comic

Two quick sketches of other Imperial Revenue Service agents, also known as "White Cloaks." Although their uniform is loose, they all must have a conical helm, a white cloak, and the symbol of the Wolf of August in gold. #worldbuilding #dnd #ttrpg #oc #ocsky #art

Still chipping away, but my shading is actually starting to look like I want it to? Madness. #worldbuilding #dnd #ttrpg #oc #ocart #ocsky

performative male? #characterdesign | #oc | #worldbuilding

Happy Halloween! I was distracted at a conference today, so here are some candies commonly enjoyed around the Night Parade. Sugar skulls, candied meal worms, and more! The flavors will typically be based around herbs (mint, licorice, ginger, etc.) or caramel. #worldbuilding #dnd #art #halloween

I shaded her scarier. #worldbuilding #dnd #oc #ocart #art

It has been an immensely busy week, but I'm still chipping away at things. #worldbuilding #dnd #oc #ocart #art

The completed first (final?) comic on collecting taxes from dragons. #worldbuilding #dnd #oc #ocsky #art #comics

The final panel of what I for some reason decided to start during a lecture on character evidence last week. We'll see if I continue doing anything with this character as I have slowly planned an entire character arc for them. #worldbuilding #dnd #oc #ocsky #ocart #art

The agent delivers their charge. #dnd #worldbuilding #oc #ocsky #art

The agent stands at the cave mouth. They are challenged. #dnd #worldbuilding #oc #art

Per a previous post, dragons must pay taxes. The question is: who's actually going to collect them? An Imperial Revenue Service agent approaches the mouth of a cave nestled high in the Mons Saxum. A village burns in the distance. #dnd #worldbuilding #oc #art

The Holy Mackerel is, in the opinion of some mages, the most important magical artifact in the modern age. For this reason, it is that much more dismaying that it is privately owned, eternally tinned, and branded with the likeness of a member of the Archmage's council. #worldbuilding #dnd #oc #art

An Althar, a demon of the Pantheon of Death. They maintain the circle of death and rebirth, strictly enforcing its mechanisms. They have, however, been known to deviate from their task, performing favors for well-meaning mortals in exchange for an IOU. #worldbuilding #dnd #ttrpg #oc #art

Bit of an older piece. "There's nothing inherently evil about necromancy. Most associate it with undead armies sweeping across nations, but I use it to get some extra use from my neglected sourdough starter. It allows for greater control of the dough's rise." #worldbuilding #dnd

Feverfew, the Wild Mage, a devotee of the God of the Hunt with a smile of flint and lead. I'm planning for him to be a minor big bad in the campaign I'm currently running. As a side note, this is probably the closest I'll ever come to drawing a catboy. #dnd #worldbuilding #oc

The final mainstay ingredient is blood. The question is: whose? The imbiber’s own is best, but the more similar it is to your own the better. Your average maker will use pig’s blood, but vegan alternatives are available in the form of Dragon Blood tree sap or silphium. #worldbuilding #dnd

Two quick sketches of my aquatic, shark-headed goblins, both meant to be cute. I may have succeeded with one. #dnd #worldbuilding #goblins

Ras'tlan, Raknide Mage, Voice of Queen Syraxxas of the Bar'nor Hive on the Archmages' Council. #worldbuilding #dnd #oc

The next ingredients of healing potions are simply fresh air and water. Modern manufacturers are often attached to desalination systems and large air filters, but one will find that most effective potions are brewed by old women living in untouched wilderness. #worldbuilding #dnd

Laypersons will call any large reptile a dragon. Real dragons commit tax evasion. Any magic poorly cast might cause harm to the caster, but transmuting precious metals is especially volatile. The result is almost certainly that the caster will lose their mind and become a wyrm. #worldbuilding

Professional guilds are essentially labor unions which arose in response to necromancy in the work force. While membership simply requires dues, advancement within the guild, for better or worse, is largely based on seniority and professional skill. #worldbuilding

I've finally finished a hex map for an odd "Over the Garden Wall" inspired D&D campaign I'm running soon. If you ever want to attempt something similar: put rivers on the edges of tiles, not through the middle. There are too many paths to map. #worldbuilding #mapmaking #map

It's a common misconception that laypersons believe vampires to be weak to sunlight. Vampires absorb all light, and thus they appear as wiry, winged silhouettes. The "weakness" is just a tendency to overheat. #worldbuilding

Finished the little #specevo piece complete with colorful jacks, a sea lamprey that thinks it's an anemone, a stabby crab, giant bats who haven't landed in several thousand years, and a deepwater mangrove.

Li'l crab guy for someone else's #specevo #worldbuilding project, a part of a larger bit I'm still slapping together. The Salty Tree Crab burrows backwards into the extruded salt at the base of Reef Mangroves, making a home and defending it from rivals with the chitinous horn on its head.

Traditionally, the first ingredients of healing potions are medicinal herbs and spices. Nowadays, industrial manufacturers of minor healing potions use deeply herbal spirits, such as gin, instead. These add the disinfecting benefits of alcohol to a medical and adventuring mainstay. #worldbuilding

The Thunderstruck Clearwing hunts during storms, attracting lightning with its ferric antennae as it punches its much larger prey. #worldbuilding #specevo #speculativeevolution

A part of a bird(?) somewhere between a peregrine falcon and a hummingbird moth.

Trying something a little different with the black and lines.

"Great Groveback" with color

Great Groveback - A giant, sentient turtle who's bad at chess.

Welcome to my Bluesky! If I get a few followers, I'll start posting more often. In the meantime, I'm just debating if I should add color to this stump.
