As a thankyou for promoting #PrequelRPG earlier this year, @glyphtide.games and @quigjam.bsky.social were kind enough to commission art for the book using @rpgeeksdnd.bsky.social photos of @emzywb.bsky.social, @shamini.bsky.social & I!

This is a really fun concept from @emzywb.bsky.social. Such great potential for comedy and conflict! Making myself a sad boi (tm) for it.
In a bustling city, four demi-gods live a life of celebrity: interviews, sponsorships, reality TV.
While they mingle with common folks, Greek Pantheon 'The Family' rules from on high.
Now tension is rising and these heroes are about to be caught in the middle of it.
