New blog post! I run a weekly #Pathfinder2E Kingmaker #TTRPG campaign; and we’ve been fine-tuning a system for “squad-level” mass combat to simulate war in our fantasy setting. Read all about it below!

Hello Folks,

I stumbled upon this novelette yesterday and it let my live shine brighter! 🌠
It is such a beautiful and heart warming story. I want to share it with you! 🥹❤️

I recommend reading it. And I'd like to support Madeline. She is a queer artist from US.

Made these for a friend a while back. It's Mae Borowski from Night in the Woods! Two facets of her, at least. Really oughta replay that game at some point, especially now that it's autumn... 🍂

I found some old fan art I did of October Santerelli's story Glimmers in the Night. This is the main character Jeth, the witch's son, pre and post the events of the story. Go check out October and their excellent work at: @okwrites.bsky.social

Drawing of a young man before and after an arcane transformation. On the left, he has dark hair, wears a long hooded coat and fingerless gloves, and carries a messenger bag. On the right, he appears more confident, his skin more saturated and his hair white. His coat is more tattered, but is covered in sparkling star-like dust. He holds an arcane jar in one hand that he is looking at with a somewhat cheeky expression.

Oop! My hand just slipped and wrote a 3,300 essay about Silksong.

Alas.

I should have it ready and polished on my blog in a few days. Monday at the latest!

3/3 More profile pics. I rocked another elfy looking one for a while that I edited down and recolored from a fuller illustration. I like where I landed recently, will probably keep it a while until I get indecisive again. Ever evolving, ever elfing ahead.

1/3 Thought it'd be fun to do a retrospective of the various profile pics I've made for myself through the years. The first is the oldest I could find, then I tried something vaguely Disco Elysium-y before settling on a comfy standard I kept for years.
