Vasiliel - The Emberbound Swordmaiden

Daughter of Kossuth, Lord of Flame, and an elven High Priestess. Born with fire in her blood.

Trained as a warrior, her blade «Ashen Dawn» leaves wounds that never heal. When her god-father demanded she become his avatar - burning cities, purging the unfaithful - she refused.

Now she wanders the realms, cursed: her fire no longer fully obeys her. Hunted by cultists, haunted by her divine blood.

Capturing the moment they witnessed a chair eat their friend.

The group had paused in a quiet roadside tavern, taking a rare moment to rest after days on the road. While the others remained at the table, one stepped away to grab a nearby chair that looked sturdier than the rest. As he reached for it, the wood split open without warning, twisting into a jagged mouth lined with teeth. In a single motion, it lunged and swallowed him whole. The sound was quick and wet, followed by a heavy, unnatural stillness. The chair settled back into place, almost ordinary again.

I'm starting a table with some people that are coming back from time off or have limited experience. 2024 ruleset is new to them.

I saw a post on here about using poker chips to track Actions, Bonus Actions, and Reactions. Timeout is a one use only, trying to keep the table moving otherwise.

I added the dice idea, but I'm sure others used it too. My LGS gave out the olde skule set with 2024 books as a holiday special one year. They're super cool.

I also have a status condition cheat sheet on the back, but not one I made. I made the spreadsheet in Open Office for $0.

I wanted to share one of the latest commissions I've gotten recently. These are Herbie (on the left) And Nellie (on the right). They are from a Soul Eater inspired world, and thus Nellie is the master and Herbie is a powerful sword! While Nellie tends to be shy and hesitant, Herbie has no second thoughts when it comes to getting their hands dirty. She's always ready for a fight and cares deeply for Nellie. Their bond goes beyond the one of just master and weapon, they are very close friends and they complete each other with their very different personalities.

I loved getting to know these characters and I hope to have made them justice. I wanted to convey their different personalities and their relationship as best as I could. Do you think I succeded?

Howdy folks

This one features a cameo by one of my Kickstarter backers (kill-me-off-in-the-comic-tier), Troy!

In other news, plushies are incoming! Stay tuned but also, stay excellent out there!

Peace and carrots!

My 40k fancomic Rogue's Retinue: Rogue's Retinue

Imagine an orc. Six foot four, built like a siege weapon, the kind of woman who could uproot a tree, swing it twice, and then complain it wasn’t a proper warm up.

Now, give her the energy of someone who just discovered sugar, music, and zero consequences.

That’s Otar.

I see her in a courtyard. Sun blazing. People sweating. Normal day. And there she is. Spinning a staff with ribbons like she’s in a festival montage. Humming. Smiling. Vibing.

Yes. An ORC. Vibing. You’re not seeing things. Blink and you’ll miss it.

I immediately write in my notes: either a saint or a problem. (Spoiler alert. She is both)

She trips. Hard. Recovers instantly and yells, “EYY, LET'S GO GIRL!”

Absolute legend.

Now, enter three bandits. You know the type. The common lvl 1 thugs from your average RPG.

They points at her. “Hand over your coin.”

She squints. Looks around. Points at herself.

“Wait… me? Oh! Oh, this is great! Just when I needed a cardio exercise.”

I choked on my drink.

Bandit swings. She sidesteps. Barely looks at him. Then tap. Staff hits his wrist.

Sword has left the chat.

Second guy charges screaming. She spins low, sweeps his legs, and as he SLAMS into the ground. Man is questioning his entire life' choices.

“I’LL KILL YOU!” he yells.

She nods, very supportive. “Valid crashout.”

Third guy pauses. You can SEE the thought process.

“Maybe this is a bad ide—” Too late. He lunges.

She twirls like she’s in a dance recital sponsored by Lliira herself, staff whipping around, ribbons everywhere, and suddenly he’s on his knees.

She taps his shoulder. “Sir, this is hardly the time to awe at my magnificence.”

At this point I lean to a guy next to me and go, “This is not a fight. This is practically a cutscene.”

Bandits panic. They run. Of course they run.

And Otar? Does she chase?

No.

No, my friends. She plants her staff. Straightens up. And gives them a full bow like she just finished a Broadway performance.

“Thank you, thank you!” she shouts. “Autograph signing session coming soon. Stay tuned!”

I am on the ground. Spiritually deceased.

So I walk up to her, because clearly my survival instincts are decorative, and I go, “What are you?”

She grins. “I serve Lliira.”

“That explains NOTHING,” I say.

She shrugs. “Skill issue.”

I lose it. Then she leans in, dead serious for one second.

“Let me teach you the secret.”

At that moment, I knew I had two options.

Option one. Run.

Option two. Accept that you are about to get absolutely choreographed, spiritually and physically…

A commissioned character I drew recently. It was kind of a challenging task since I usually struggle with creating female orcs, but I’m glad I did. The character’s owner also gave me an anime girl as a personality reference, which made it even harder, haha.

In terms of inspiration, I took nods from BG3 and Warcraft-style orcs, combined the two, and this is the result, I guess. Her backstory pretty much came from me asking how you usually write a 20 y/o, and my friend answered, “Pretty much like your average people on Discord” lmao.

My new character I’ve made! I played a little bit back in college, for a couple of sessions… but it didn’t really stick. This time I’m hoping that it will!

The scythe itself is rudimentary. It’s mostly for flashy show! They’re based off of a sacrificial lamb, and struggle with their faith a lot due to being very weak… they’re not super fleshed out yet, but I want them to be heavily inspired by Christian religious imagery.

If you’re curious, the robe is from a textile piece here in New York City!

The concept for the Well Dweller was illustrated by Ashly Lovett for the BIG BADS: Creatures & Curios

Well dwellers are fey creatures that prey on people who make wishes at wells. They use their magic to

cultivate the belief that throwing coins into their well will cause wishes to come true. Well dwellers’ slimy bodies are studded with coins. If someone wishes for something the well dweller can’t give them, the well dweller will pulls the unlucky wisher into the well to devour them. They are amphibious and can regrow severed limbs.
