In @feralcharlie.bsky.social's "Ave Nox," there's a particular optional monster you can interact with that doesn't have any artwork. Since my players took it down last session, one of them decided they wanted to sketch it while we were playing through the rest of the session. Holy shit.

Putting a pulse test out here - if someone were to, say, put out a zine some supplemental materials for expanding "Ave Nox," is that a thing people might care about, either free or paid? Like faction rules/objectives, tips on running in various systems, that kind of thing?

A full spread and arguably the heart of the adventure. While the timeline moves without character involvement, the outcomes are tied to what the characters manage to do within that timeline.
