Just remembered sketching this boy because I saw a couple of tasty watercolours in the feed today) In #TTRPG #Vaesen, every character has a trauma and a dark secret. The first is the moment of glimpsing the hidden side of the setting. The second is the consequence of our own actions :^)
A graphic digital drawing depicting a shaggy anthropomorphic fae with feline ears and a feline face.

The fur is rendered with long black lines against a grey background, imitating the movement of water in a woodcut.

In the character's paws rests a disc of an orange-crimson moon, akin to the colour of the character's irises.

The creature grins; behind it, turquoise washes spread like the structure of a leaf.

Trying to find a source for a good map of the Holy Land that includes all of it, so I can consider the scope of this Vaesen RPG supplement idea. Iirc, it included Egypt, at least in the old sources I have read for Palestinian folklore. Everything modern seems to shrink it.

I did some RPG reading and writing whilst on holiday. I read The Lost Mountain Saga for Vaesen and got a great sense of how this campaign fits together over a year of in-game time. Well-written characters, cleverly constructed one-shots that can then form connected adventures. Ace stuff. 1/4
The Lapponian Gate, where a giant stands betwixt two mountains in a u-shaped valley. Two adventurers gaze upon this sight as the mist and cloud thickens.
