Had a fantastic weekend at #GameholeCon! Played some new games, attended some great panels, and got to run #Runemaker for some new people 💚 Was even gifted some session art from the table. Thank you all for being rad. We'll be back next year!

A tall stone rests in a grassy area. A face is carved in the stone that looks as if it is sleeping peacefully with leaves budding from its features. A sword rests upon the stone, stuck in the grass. Beside the stone, a puddle of water is disturbed by a small, rippling orb at its center.

The Dominion, which Bright Stone was born to, is an empire located entirely underground, its capital nestled in The Den on Bajrn Isle.
A violet-colored map of Bajrn Isle - home of the Bajrn. The central island is small and round against a sea green sea. At the center of the island sits the Bajrn capital, located under the mountain, called the Den. Four smaller islands surround the main island, the general shape resembling a bear's paw. The four islands are called The Paw, The Fang, The Claw, and The Ear.

Speaking of, in honor of Trans Day of Visibility, here’s some queer character art!
A black and white sketch of a Bajrn Kaller named Bright Stone. Bright Stone is humanoid with the face of a sun bear. His face is covered in roots, he is shirtless with visible top surgery scars, and wears a belt adorned with crystals. Bright Stone is also bear foot and shooting the viewer some finger guns, while Speaking a Spell with his other hand.

Hello, I'm Val (they/them). I'm a game dev, author, and artist. I've been working on my psychedelic fantasy RPG Runemaker for almost 6 years, and releasing September 9!
A color map shaped like an eye featuring a world populated with small islands. The map is surrounded by runes representing the 12 Domains of magic: Air, Earth, Fauna, Flora, Fire, Water, Body, Mind, Day, Night, Life, and Death. The Runemaker logo with release date beneath it: 9/9/25 A map of a fictional island called Såvurland. The sea is blue and green. The land is a light pink color and resembles a dinosaur skull in shape. Mountains dot the southern half of the map while the north is filled with forests and a great marsh. A symmetrical pattern-image, wreathed in a smoke, depicting a pair of hands cradling a sphere. A sun and moon rest outside the hands. The hands are framed by two burning torches and the sphere is met beneath by prongs of a coral-like tree. The pattern loops around further down, a seed, fox face, and twin dragons at the center. Below the dragons is a vertical eye with a swirling iris, encased by a shouting mouth. Two upturned hands rest at the bottom of the image, producing the smoky frame.

New fart! From the upcoming #Runemaker Core Game Guide:

The Breath of Jor inhabits and moves between all things, given form when wielded by people by way of Speech.

Speech is learned through the Ways of the world. Each Way is connected to its own planar Realm.

A fantasy map of blue green water filled with a pink island shaped kind of like a spikey triceratops head. The southern half of the maps features mountains while the north has great forests and a large marshland. This land is called Såvurland.

Doodling. Feeling loony.
A black canvas filled with the side profile of a loon, outlined in white. The loon's body is illustrated with different shapes and patterns including eyes, squiggles, swirls, dots, and branches. Above the loon reads the text "Loony Runes"
