The purpose of this thread is for artists to share their work with the intent of finding clients, and for other members of the community to find and commission artists for custom artwork.

Finally a forever DM for about 5 years can enjoy the pleasure of playing a PC again! Haven't been looking forward to a new campaign as much as this in a while :D He is a story teller traveling the world and gathering up as many heroic story's as he can, preferably writing his own while at it!

We are playing in the world of Grim Hollow, a relatively dark fantasy and my Bard is trying to bring some colour into it!

I just wanted to give a PSA for all the stressed DMs out there. It’s really crazy that this culture has gone the way it has from all of the professional actual plays out there.

I often compare it to the NFL or professional adult videos - that they create a really crazy standard for and entirely different product than what most people are going for in their own games.

You don’t have to be a professional NFL player - before we saw the professionals we didn’t know that were had to agonize over “our players liking our campaign.”

Please give yourself a break, dnd and being a dm should feel like playing Nintendo 64 with your friends as a kid - it’s not stressful just because you are the one with the gaming system.

I hope the culture changes from these crazy standards and “am I good enough” feelings that seem so common for DMs these days.

During the last session of our D&D, I made handouts for my players. While I handed it to my players, they did not open it right away. They turned it over, checked the seal and held it up like it actually mattered. The whole table was quiet for few seconds. That’s the moment I know physical handouts are essential.

Since last year, I have been making simple “parchment” at home using cheap brown paper, printing on it and aging it a bit. Nothing really fancy or expensive but once you put it in an envelope or add a small prop, it starts feeling like an object from the world!

It is honestly one of the best and easiest upgrades to immersion at the table.

I want to give a shoutout to the YouTuber who inspired me to try this in the first place, I started with this tutorial and then I have tweaked it to fit my own game: https://youtu.be/yQEGVhGiXgw?is=gwDaBw4XyuEt8QaJ

I would love to hear if you are also doing similar things or have ideas to push this event further.

Howdy folks!

I'll be taking a break for a bit as we are eagerly awaiting the arrival of our secondborn, who takes after his old man by already missing the deadline (due date was two days ago)! It became a bit of a cliff-hanger sadly, but atleast it's not mid-boss fight :P

This hiatus will be roughly one month long, after which I'm thinking of working part-time in whatever capacity is reasonable/feasible. We'll have two kids under four plus we'll move into a new home and there's stuff to do there so I make no promises!

So no comics for a month-ish, after that we'll see!

Also recently my Instagram page reached 140k followers! Pretty neat, I must say! I decided to celebrate it in classic Instagram artist fashion with a Draw This In Your Style challenge! More info here if you wanna get in on it, give me some fanart to inspire me while raising the children that will one day replace me, Sith lord style (their replacing of me, my style of parenting is arguably more loving than a sith lord).

Plushies (plural) are coming after the break too btw!

Stay excellent out there!

Peace and carrots!

A friend of mine was playing a character, Bebe, who was essentially Roger from American Dad. She would disguise herself all the time to swap between various personas. It was a gag, it was a game mechanic, it was part of her backstory, we had a lot of fun with it. Then one time, we were hired as bodyguards during peace negotiations. We arrived at the meeting room to find the aggressive neighbors impatiently waiting on us. The head of the more peaceful side whom we were meant to guard was nowhere to be seen. So we shoot the shit with them for a little bit until they go from frustrated to hostile cause the guy still isn’t here. To buy us some time, Bebe ran around the corner to quick change into the guy we were waiting on. She starts BSing and things are going incredibly well. Eventually, we come to an agreement and sign a treaty without the actual guy ever showing up. The GM didn’t even making her roll deception or sleight of hand or anything. It wasn’t until after the session that the GM explained, with a big shit-eating grin on his face, that there was no need to roll deception because Bebe wasn’t deceiving anyone. The leader of that group, the guy we were supposed to be bodyguarding, was and always had been one of Bebe‘s persona’s! Everything she signed and agreed to is 100% binding and legitimate! We could not have played into his hand any better if we had tried!

One moment he was tending to his hives, the next he slipped on spilled honey and woke up in a world he didn't recognize! Luckily, a loyal swarm followed him, and at his call they can fuse into a towering bee that obeys his every command.

His old beekeeping gear came along for the ride, though not without a transformation of its own. The white leather that once shielded him from stings is now trimmed in gold and seem to draw loyal insects of every variety to his side.

His once humble honey wand has grown ten times its original size, heavy enough to pack a serious punch. Strangely, only he can wield it. Anyone foolish enough to try finds themselves swarmed in an instant.
