Sometimes game designers forget about secondary status effects. #botober2026

A comic in ballpoint pen in two panels. The first panel shows a dolphin with a saddle on its back, swimming gaily through the ocean. An anthropomorphic dog on its back has gone unconscious, with bubbles trailing from his mouth. The second panel shows the dog on land, coughing up water, as the dolphin watches in concern. It is captioned, "Please suppress the Drowning status when using the Dolphin mount in Thalassia."

This year's #Botober challenge is pulled from racehorse names ... so Luprand is finding himself riding all kinds of unusual creatures.

A list of drawing prompts for Botober 2026, generated by a low power LLM trained only on racehorse names.

A pen sketch of a cartoon German Shepherd dog riding on the back of a giant housefly. The fly looks pleased with the arrangement; the dog less so.

If anyone wants to make their own versions, feel free, just make sure to share them with me, haha. These might be my own critter design, but they're free to play with, providing credit. ~w~ Here's a version done by my friend Luprand. There were more I commissioned, but the artists deleted them. ;-;

"And if you donate to the student scholarship fund, your donation will be matched by ... uh ... people who ... have ... more money than you ... uh." This picture is legally old enough to drink, haha. Scribbled it up in a college psych course when a fundraiser flubbed his talk.

A young man and woman walk past a window emblazoned with a banner: "The Society of People who Have More Money than You". Inside is a fancy "old money" study, with massive bookshelves, a roaring fireplace, and a taxidermied wolf head on the wall. In the room, a man in a silk dressing gown and a woman in a sumptuous cocktail dress stand near a portrait of themselves in the same outfit and pose. The man holds up a snifter of brandy and sneers, "Pay no attention to the urchins, Agatha "

Was digging up an old scribble for something and found my first drawings of some of the "Book of Changes" characters from back in college. Justin's design has barely changed in almost 20 years.

A priest character briefly overflowing with holy power. His eyes glow sky blue as a glowing ankh with seraphic wings manifests behind him. He reaches out with his bandaged left hand, holding a staff with his right.

A scene in a stone kennel with reeds lining the floor. A priest in tattered robes kneels and buries his face in the chest of a giant dog, whose pelt is like the night sky. Smaller pups with vividly colored pelts snuggle nearby in their sleep.

Commission for Misharu. A Moonbearer awakens in the Arizona desert.

A burly werewolf stands in a magic circle within the Arizona desert. He is fresh from his first transformation; his jeans are tattered and his hoodie and T-shirt are tight. He also has a very large pregnant belly, within which glowing spirits swirl. He braces his lower back and belly as he tips his head back to howl. The Milky Way shines in the night sky behind towering saguaro cacti.

Bunbuku Chagama (commission for Misharu). With Takeshi's guidance, Masshu-jinja the tanuki figures out how to use the Lucky Teakettle in combat. "Ocha ... DOUZO!"

A burly anthropomorphic male tanuki with a big pregnant belly swings a heavy bronze teakettle with a shout. The weight pulls him a bit off balance, and the kettle looses a magical stream of piping hot matcha. A tiny golden tanuki spirit floats near his shoulder, waving a tiny fan to cheer him on.

"So I used to be a tavern cook, but then Forey showed up and started living in my gut, so I guess I'm an adventurer now, huh." Domenico, a manul catfolk witch who is pregnant with his own eldritch patron and surprisingly sanguine about it.

A concept picture for a Pathfinder fantasy character. An anthropomorphic manul (Pallas's cat) with messy brown hair, a goatee, and cheerful lime green eyes. He wears a linen shirt, a canvas vest, wool trousers, and open-toed leather boots. He appears to have quite the potbelly. With one arm folded behind his back, he lifts the other hand, one finger extended and trailing a sparkle of green light.

Concept art for a character in a Persona tabletop campaign. On the left, a portly young man with mixed American and Japanese features, thick black hair, and a red beard. He has an anxious expression and posture, adjusting his sun hat carefully. He wears a gray button-down shirt under a brown jacket with a rainbow pin, along with jeans and hiking boots. On the right, an elderly man with blue-gray skin and a thick silver beard hunches over a long parchment scroll, scribing Ogham runes on it with a quill pen. He wears tattered brown robes with a hood and a pouch on his belt. The lower half of his body is an Atlantic salmon with a triquetra knot for a tail, and two salmon heads flank his head, chattering in his ears.

My character in a #Persona tabletop campaign. Rikuto Kanazawa, an aspiring restaurateur from Akita Prefecture, and his Persona, the healing god Nodens.

Concept art for a character in a Persona tabletop roleplaying campaign. On the left is a young man of mixed Japanese and Ainu descent. He is on the muscular side, with thick dark brown hair, a slight beard, and hairy arms. He wears a green button-down shirt and convertible cargo jeans and carries an uchiwa fan painted with a dragonfly among lake reeds. On the right is his persona, the healing god Nodens, depicted as a muscular man with blue skin and bronze hair and beard. The god wears a wolf pelt over his head, and his waist is wrapped with a towel bordered in Celtic knotwork. His right arm is mechanical, forged from silver. He has several bronze bracelets on both arms, and he carries a wooden bath bucket and a bamboo ladle, from which he pours healing waters.

A surreal hedge maze in shades of purple. A red fox with bright green eyes stands on his hind legs and lifts a paw in greeting; he wears a flat cap and tweed trousers and walks with a shillelagh cane. Behind him hovers a dark elf with glowing eyes, dressed in various leaves, vines, and mosses. The elf carries a magic staff and conjures a few twinkling lights.

What if the title "Culann's Dog" were more literal for Cú Chulainn? Here's a werewolf version of Setanta's famed ríastrad (battle frenzy).

A muscular werewolf with a flowing mane of red hair and beard stands before a fiery background. His eyes glow yellow with rage and his muzzle is pulled back in a snarl. He wears a golden yellow tunic with a leather belt, blue tartan trousers, and shaggy pelts tied over his boots with green cord. On his left arm is a buckler decorated with simple knotwork, and in his right arm he holds a serrated spear made of whalebone. A rope is bound around his torso, the ends snapped and frayed.

Maki Shimizu, my roommate's character in a Persona tabletop campaign. A bubbly, cheerful college student with a secret or two in her cello case. Her Persona, Púca, is a shapeshifting trickster spirit from Irish lore, who also seems to be hiding something behind those big, innocent eyes.

A character concept picture of a young woman dressed in downplayed genki fashion, with a big baggy nekomimi hoodie, a pleated school uniform skirt, striped stockings, and army boots. Her hair is dyed in pink ombré and pulled up in twin pigtails. She makes a heart with her hands and poses cutely in front of a rabbit-like creature a little shorter than herself. The rabbit has large shiny blue eyes, a dark gray star on its forehead, and a shy posture. To the right of this is another concept picture of the rabbit creature, who has split open around a zipper to allow a massive, muscular horse demon to erupt from its body. The horse grins with an unnaturally wide mouth and sharp fangs, red eyes bulging grotesquely. Its muscular arms end in powerful hands, which are clenched around brass knuckles.

"Welcome to the Velvet Room." Felix and Agatha, attendants for a Persona tabletop campaign.

A hotel lobby in various shades of blue. Two attendants stand before the front desk, dressed formally in shades of blue and black with brass buttons. One of the attendants, a woman, clutches a crumbled contract in one hand and balances a quill pen on the other index finger with a mysterious smile. The other, a man, stands at attention, holding a brown leather tome in one hand. This arm has a crisp white towel folded over the forearm, emblazoned with a calligraphed capital V.

The other seven surround her in comfort: a plump woman with pale tattooed skin in a golden robe of the dawn sky, an ocher figure like a mountain with a beard of stalactites, a glowing figure with a gown of flames, a spiky many-eyed figure covered in electrical arcs, a fox-like figure with fur of hoar-frost, a floating hollow figure with whistling holes and whirlwind hair, and a fish-like figure with a body as long and slender as a river.
