She's finally done and I am so proud of how she turned out! ⚡

For those who followed the WIP — here's your final reveal! Silver hair, icy blue eyes, grey skin and lightning wings that crackle where her severed feathers once were. She is literally the daughter of a Storm God and I think the final palette says exactly that 🌩️

Thanks to everyone who dropped color suggestions and guesses in my last post❤

This was such a beautiful concept to bring to life and honestly one of my favorite commissions so far 🖤 My client trusted me with something really special and I hope I did it justice lmk you thought.

Commissions are open.

Made for artfight.

Mantra Ravidieu is a tall, cool glass of extremely tart lemonade. Alluring and sexy, she works for a criminal organization that retrieves rare magical components from difficult-to-access places. She and her pistol, Cygnus, make short work of anything that dares to stand in her way.

Her personality is Moriarty-esque without the incredible brains; charming but calculating, and she always gets what she wants. Think Vex from Vox Machina but more... evil.

"It seems we have reached an untenable disagreement; you see yourself as alive, and I see you as dead."

I'd love to bring my homebrew to life with some wonderful pictures. Issue is everywhere I look is littered with AI art. Even if I try and filter out AI art it is hard to tell sometimes. Can anyone link/direct me to some websites or artists that have amazing non AI art please.

Khaldris is a Leonin who lived on Isle Karnash, a hidden island that remained concealed through most of the ages, from which few Leonin ever left. His tribe was composed of great warriors and battle legends—some utilizing exquisite combat skills, while others relied solely on their brute strength as power.

Khaldris grew up listening to tales of the ancestral guardians and other great fighters who inspired him to become a legend among his people and enter the annals of history.

Just as he was preparing to finally explore the world outside and forge his legacy, the Dragon Queen Takhisis and her army decimated his esteemed and beloved island, slaughtering most of his people. Helpless, Khaldris found himself with no choice but to flee, swearing that he would tear off all the heads of the Dragon Queen with his own bare hands.

Some time passed, and Khaldris met and joined a group of adventurers who shared the common goal of putting an end to the Dragon Queen's army. Amidst many battles, Khaldris caught the attention of Sargonnas, the God of Vengeance, due to his ferocity in battle. Sargonnas made him his champion, turning Khaldris into a tool of his destruction and chaos.

D&D 5e Campaign Commission

I wanted to create something that blends beauty with disturbing body horror for a TTRPG setting. She holds the skull almost lovingly, but her body is no longer entirely her own. The white tendrils you see are parasitic entities nesting beneath her skin and emerging from her ears.

In a D&D campaign, would you run her as a tragic NPC controlled by an Elder Brain, or a high-level cosmic horror boss? I'd love to hear your ideas!

Amilar is the heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Novonia, burdened by a tragic past and an overwhelming sense of guilt. Her life changed forever when her first transformation into a werewolf caused her to lose control of herself. Consumed by the uncontrollable fury brought on by lycanthropy, she unintentionally slew her own father, the king. The incident led to her exile from the kingdom and stripped her of the inheritance that was once destined to be hers.

Now, Amilar embarks on a long journey of redemption. She seeks an education at the prestigious Magaambya, where proving her worth is a necessary step toward reclaiming her birthright. Alongside the challenges of her studies, she must learn to master the beast within and ensure that such a tragedy never happens again. Haunted by the consequences of her past yet driven by unwavering determination, Amilar's story is one of redemption, self-control, and the hope of restoring both her honor and the future she lost.

Hey everyone! Newbie DM here.

I'll get straight to the point: What is a knowledge check actually supposed to represent or mean in game?

As I DM more sessions, I’m constantly learning and tweaking how I run things. When it comes to "physical" checks, I think I've figured out what they represent to me. A nat 20 doesn't mean you can do something you are physically incapable of. I am physically capable of shooting a basketball, out of 10 shots, I'll miss some and make some, and every once in a while (20), I might sink a 3pointer. But I can't fly from one end of the court to the other and dunk it. That's just impossible, no matter how lucky I get. (If you disagree with this perspective, I'm more than open to hearing your thoughts)

But when it comes to knowledge checks, why isn't it just a passive check every time? If a PC looks at a statue and rolls a 5 on a History check, they know nothing. But if they roll a 20, they suddenly know its entire backstory. What is the logic behind this? As the DM, I feel like I have to make up a reason on the fly for why that specific character happens to know that piece of information, which often means inventing character lore that the player didn't actually agree to.

How do you guys handle and justify knowledge checks in your games?

So I am about to start Vecna: Eve of Ruin as a continuation of my Curse of Strahd campaign, while running CoS I only had 3 players, so I made some DMNPCs to take up roster slots and help my inexperienced players along the way, slowly the DMNPCs faded to the background after the party started to know what they’re doing.
After finishing CoS and taking a break from that campaign to play another game and adding another player, we are returning to that campaign with Vecna, so I want to remove the DMNPCs since I feel the two are unnecessary now, so I asked my players (rookie mistake) if they would be comfortable continuing on without them… they want them to stay, be party members…

So that leaves me with a few options:
A) keep them around and have two DMNPCs who don’t contribute much and extend combat
B) kill them off in a sudden way that cuts them off from the party so no resurrection (which is f\*\*\*ed up since one of which is a kid, CoS’s Fated Ally)
C) have one of them turn on the party and join the bad side of Vecna

What would be the best course of action?
