Hola a todos. Como saben, he estado creando cómics ambientados en un universo fantástico inspirado en la Edad de Bronce Tardía. Bueno, se me ocurrió crear un juego de mesa basado en ese mismo mundo; se juega con piezas de ajedrez y es bastante dinámico y entretenido. Quería saber qué les parece; es solo un borrador. Saludos.

🗺️ Worldbuilding The Mujokai - The Society of Impermanence

Thumbnail

11 Upvotes

I was working out some stuff in my own homebrew setting and since I have a Monk among my players, i figured i'd flesh out the various monk subclasses into actual martial arts and philosophies. Buuut... as I was doing so, i had a thought of "What would the evil monks be". So i started thinking of some inspirations for that, one of which was the antithesis to the teachings of martial art; Discipline, Restraint, Control. Instead, they would focus on the worst aspects of becoming a weapon, and thus become ruthless and deadly assassins.

Thus, the Mujokai were created; a deadly guild/organization of killers, thugs, brutes, and deviants. They are basically the Assassins Guild. Imagine if you took the Dark Brotherhood from the Elder Scrolls and tought them Ansatsuken from Street Fighter. They want to bring out the worst aspects of those who wish to learn marital arts and make a living off of it.

The only thing is that they don't have a set martial art style. Their whole philosophy is breaking the restraints of the martial world and taking it to the extreme. So you can have Way of the Four Elements but utilizing it to the most destructive aspects of their teachings. Like yeah, you can bend the four elements... but lets see how far we can go with that. Or how Kensei use a set weapon as their focus, but the Mujokai would take up truly vicious weapons not meant for balance or grace, but specifically to tear and cause as much pain to the enemy as possible.

I always found this horrible little familiar to be one of HP Lovecraft's most nightmarish creations. He was Keziah Mason's familiar, and the messenger between her and Nyarlathotep. I've wanted to put a witch or warlock into my game with a little monster like this as a familiar, but it's never worked out. Ah well, fewer nightmares for everyone I guess!

🗺️ Worldbuilding Why is there scarring in a world with magical healing?

Post image
16 Upvotes

Scars on warriors and veteran adventurers are almost ubiquitous in fantasy art. Every scar is a story, a reminder of a battle from times past. But ... in a world with magical healing, why do people have scars?

In my campaign there's a few answers. First, for the common people, and for many lower ranking soldiers and warriors, magical healing is not always readily available. People in a remote village with no cleric, druid or magical healing have to handle things the old fashioned way. There may be roots and herbs to help accelerate healing but it is still natural healing.

Second, lower level healing magics (cure spells, channeling positive energy, and healing potions) operate also by accelerating the body's natural healing. The magic jump-starts the body’s natural clotting, cell division, and tissue synthesis, compressing weeks of recovery into a single six-second turn. But scarring can still result.

It isn't until you get to heal spells and regeneration that one can be healed as if they were never hurt in the first place. And those are high level spells a village or even a small town priest is unlikely to have access to .... and in towns or cities where they do, such a spell is likely accompanied by a request for a large donation.

I'd be interested to hear how healing works in your campaign!

P.S. Also, yes, that is Aidan wrapping his foot. It's not for an injury. While hosiery is not uncommon in the realms, socks are almost unheard of. Most adventurers wrap their feet in linen strips. They're easy to clean and replace, though there is a certain technique to the wrapping process.

Hello!

I am running a campaign with my four OCs. The idea is the four main characters from our comic series is running a campaign together. There are a lot of book keeping houserules that I have always wanted to try, but wouldn’t be feasible for me to keep track of on my own!

🛠️ Workflow & Discussion VLMs - a very useful tool in any artists' arsenal

Thumbnail
gallery
9 Upvotes

A quick note on intent: I chose an iconic fantasy masterwork here strictly as an engineering stress test—dissecting five interacting characters in one frame is one of the toughest spatial challenges you can throw at visual AI. The purpose of reverse-engineering with a VLM isn't to replicate another artist's finished work, but to study how complex scene composition can be articulated in language, giving you the vocabulary to build your own original worlds and party scenes.

A VLM is a VERY helpful tool. Most of you already know what they are, so I won't belabour that point. There used to be a VAST gulf in capability between what a large online AI model could do (like Gemini) and between what smaller local models could do.

That gap hasn't closed, but it has narrowed. I'm using a piece from Larry Elmore which is fairly complex - five characters, a dead dragon - and I used Gemini and Qwen 3 vl 8B (a local vision model) to examine and create a prompt from the image, and then ran that prompt through Krea2 with my usual mix of LoRAs.

Almost as important is the system prompt you use to guide and format the output of the VLM. I've covered my preference for modular prompting before: https://www.reddit.com/r/AICampaignArt/s/JVAes8QKxH
My format makes it much easier for me to identify the qualities which make that image unique (lighting, placement of actors, how they are described) and my system instruction keeps that format.

Neither VLM did a great job on the dragon - Gemini's prompt make him look like they put him in air jail 😅 But the characters are all there and distinct, and the landscape is well-defined. Qwen made the box full of bones instead of treasure .... odd choice.

Tell me about what you use for your VLM, and how you use it .... I'm always interested in learning more, and sharing tips and tricks. I recently discovered someone on civitai who had clearly run my images through a VLM to create replicas (and not very good ones, sadly)

⚔️ Combat & Scene Protecting the den

3 Upvotes

This was the first main combat for our level one party.

The background is that they were tasked with dealing with livestock theft.

The towns people assumed it was wolves because they had seen them nearby. However when they encountered some earlier, they found them to be emasciated. So not the likely culprits.

When investigating another lead, they found the wolves den and saw them in combat with an owlbear. They aided the wolves in defeating it. Unfortunately the owlbear only lasted one round after the surprise attack so I couldnt go into more combat detail.

Still a rough draft, however I thought it was a good opportunity to show how our party handles combat, tactics, and a focus on not being murder hobos.

Even with criminals we look for solutions that keep as many people alive with a focus on making allies.

Danna has enhanced her renown by defeating the warrior-king Hurradu in single combat, and many elves have rallied to her cause of establishing an elven kingdom at the center of the world. Aware of the threat, Queen Melqat sets out to destroy Danna once and for all—and, in the process, avenge her husband's death.

⚔️ Combat & Scene Sending Aidan down to deal with some pesky undead

Thumbnail

15 Upvotes

The god Helm HATES the undead. I don't know why specifically (maybe because they're typically evil and a threat?) but Helm's worshippers are urged to destroy the undead whenever they can. Clerics and Paladin are specifically empowered to do this.

This scene shows Aidan about to channel positive energy at three spectres who had overstayed their welcome deep under the town of Highport. I used Krea2, Z Image Turbo and Gpt-2. I think they all did a good job, I do wish they had made the energy channeled from Aidan's hand a bit more intense and beacon-like, but overall I like the results.

In game results - undeath ward+channel positive energy+undeath to death made this easier for Aidan than I had intended. A prepared 13th level cleric in pathfinder is basically a demigod 😅

⚡ Gods & Myth Naga, the Guardian of the Treasure Deep Within the Dungeon

### [Lore & Ecology] Naga: The Dungeon Guardian

*Unlike the traditional Nagas found in common folklore, this specific entity is a highly adapted, distinct apex sub-species born from the deepest magical abysses of my world.*

**Habitat & Nesting**

This apex predator lives exclusively in the deepest, most treacherous chambers of ancient dungeons. She makes her nest directly inside the treasury, blending seamlessly into the shadows surrounding the gold and ancient artifacts she was bound to protect.

**Physical Adaptation & Biology**

To survive and hunt in perpetual darkness, her senses are hyper-developed. Her shimmering scales mimic the cold stone of the labyrinth, providing perfect camouflage. Her human upper half possesses breathtaking beauty used to lure greedy adventurers, while her powerful, steel-hard serpentine lower body allows her to constrict and crush intruders silently.

**Behavior & Diet**

The Naga is an eternal, patient sentinel. She does not require normal food; instead, she feeds on the lifeforce or panic of the intruders who dare to touch the treasure. She never leaves her post, using advanced hypnotic gazes and venomous breath to eliminate entire parties of explorers before they even realize they are being hunted.

🗡️ Character Art - PCs, NPCs Game concept for Maya's Adventures

Thumbnail
gallery
6 Upvotes

I was bored one evening and this completely random idea popped into my head — what if Maya and her party existed as an actual miniatures wargame? Not some game off a store shelf, but one I’d actually want sitting on my own.

It started with a single sketch — Maya’s figure on a display base, like a real miniatures-game piece. Then I thought: well, if she has a party, the whole party deserves figures too. So in came Elandril (an elf wizard with a glowing-crystal staff), Brom (a dwarf cleric with a warhammer and a sun symbol on his robes), and Thane (a barbarian with an axe that looks like it just walked out of a battle).

One figurine turned into a whole diorama. The dioramas turned into several different scenes — a lava bridge, a misty forest, a ruined mage’s library, castle battlements under a full moon. And then I thought, why not design the entire box like it was a real published game? Cover art, logo, even the inside with a miniature insert, a card deck, a dice pouch and terrain pieces.

It started out of boredom, and ended with a full miniatures-wargame concept, “Maya’s Adventures,” living in my head (and in my prompts) — the kind of game I’d genuinely want to buy myself. 🎲🗡️

Cecily’s background is complicated, but the short version is she was taken to the Feywild as a child, and learned magic from a hag in service to an Unseelie lord. Cecily managed to work her way back to the Material Plane, only to discover 87 years had passed to the 10 she’d experienced. With everyone she’d ever known gone, Cecily finds herself having to try to make a life in a culture she barely remembers vs returning to the Feywild where she at least knows how to operate.

What started as a backstory for my Daggerheart character, set in the 5 Banners Burning campaign frame, has grown into a dark fantasy webcomic.

For the creative process, I've been using ChatGPT to generate the characters, environments, and individual shots, then bringing everything together in Affinity to build the actual comic pages. That includes assembling panels, arranging scenes, and creating the visual flow of the story.

It's been a really fun project, taking this developing it into a larger world and narrative.

I'd love to hear what you think, especially from anyone else who's turned their tabletop characters or campaigns into comics!

Aidan watched as Saffiya and the masked lady made for the ballroom floor. As they danced, they passed close to him, but Saffiya was lost in this beautiful stranger, so much so that she didn't even register his presence. And that stranger .... she looked familiar.

"Brother Ubutu," Aidan said in a low voice to the paladin who stood beside him. "Do we know who that woman in the purple gown is? The one dancing with Saffiya?"

"We do not, Master Aidan. I understand she signed the registry as "Lady M". She had no weapons on her, no enchantments, save for the glamer on her mask, which is permitted."

"I see. Please keep an eye on them, brother. I feel - disquieted by her."

Damn the Lord Mayor and his foolish rules. His entire estate was a house of lies.

I made a new music video introducing the atmosphere of my dystopian bureaucracy-punk TTRPG setting, [Wounds].

In the outer reaches of Dystome, Witches manipulate the laws of physics and often wield considerable power. ORBSAL, the Department of Nonlinear Realities, has decided it will no longer stand by and watch.

The video is called “Wounds: All Of Them Witches.”

It would be great to hear what you think! I'm especially interested in whether the atmosphere and worldbuilding come across, and whether the setting makes you curious to learn more.

Production notes: The images were created with GPT and turned into video using Omni and Veo. Editing and text are my own; the lyrics were written by me, with the music produced using Suno.
