Drop something red! 💢🧙‍♀️

A grayscale image of a ruined shrine, with a spiked leaf. Underneath, a view of a ruined city, with an extremely large tree on an island to the right, and a river cutting through it. Text reads: Storasta was once one of the greatest cities of Sarkoris, and a major center of druidism and the Green Faith. It fell shortly after the opening of the Worldwound, but was held through all five Mendevan Crusades by the blighted arboreal regent, Carrock. In 4724, Carrock attempted a ritual to regrow one of the great elemental trees, but it was wrested from his control-- and with it, control of the ruined city, as well.

A grayscale map labelled STORASTA. Notable landmarks include: - The West Yards - The Stockyards - Barraza Island - Trathen's Finger - Creekside - Carrock's Howe - Eastwall - Basseri Green - The Rushwaters - Hannie's House - Finch's House - The Temple of Nocticula - The Ogham - Fort Stormont - The Argent Atelier - Riverkeep

A grayscale picture of ruined stone buildings, overgrown with greenery. In their midst, new scaffolding and lean-tos are being erected. Text reads: Today, much of Storasta remains in ruins. However, efforts to rebuild have begun to bear fruit; drawn by the promise of lost knowledge or new homes, people have begun to resettle small sections of the city. New homes are often built on top of old residences. (Re)construction is supplemented by magic, but the demand for finished shelters currently outpaces supply. In the meantime, it's common for residents to simply build a temporary lean-to against an existing stone shell.

A grayscale picture of the front of a simple home, with a woman standing outside it, holding a basket. Below, a simple oven. Text reads: Hannie was in the first wave of people to come to Storasta hoping for a new start. The building she was allocated after repairs happened to have an intact oven, and she more or less fell into the role of baker. The fact that her house has a second story is unusual. It was added by the Arborspeaker when she offered to share her home with a stranger. (Oven and house kind of TBD, still doing research into layouts and regional oven shapes).

Man I’d love to post my image to this webbed site but I guess not huh

But they weren’t lucky enough to die in glorious combat, and weren’t lucky enough to catch a shard, and they’re just. still here. just a fighter now. just somebody.

yeah I LOVE THAT. ESP the armor bits into weapon. I’m particularly obsessed with the inverse; someone who just… doesn’t get that. Wants it. Is chasing warshards, maybe, but like an addict, just trying to fill the hole in their heart.

the two grayscale pics are, to me, both captioned them saying “Will you fight?” one as a joyful challenge, the other as a desperate plea

just the most wretched person who can’t bear to give up but has nothing left to look forward to. obsessed with a character shucked of their connection to the divine, who used to be a sword and now just slagged iron

going slightly crazy thinking about an (ex) champion of gorum in a post-godsrain era, someone who went from the top to the fuckin bottom but hasn’t quite burned out yet… name WIP but getting attached to Winn or something that ends in -win

a bunch of drawn diagrams of hand stretches. the text at the top reads MAKE TIME TO STRETCH! it shows wrist extensions and flexions, with the arm straight out and hand palm out with the hand gently stretched up and down. the same stretches with the hand in a fist. the same stretch but with the palm against a wall. a stretch of pressing your palms together with wrists parallel to the ground and slowly lowering the heels of the palms. and a gentle shaking out of the hands.

since this will always be circulating, i might as well be the first one to put it here: the stretch tips i made many years ago… remember to stop and stretch and take care of your hands! be mindful of your work time & listen to your body.

Panel 1: A book- the title reads ATLAS OSIRIANI. Venice: It's symbolic, filling in a specific for a general whole. For example, when I say 'bird', what type of bird do you picture in your mind? Panel 2: Four people around a table, a short black dwarf (Draki), a small grey fetchling (Bailey), a normal white human (John), and an olive-skinned tiefling, Venice. Panel 3: Bailey: A crow. An image of Bailey, casually gesturing to an imagined crow in the background. Panel 4: Venice: Well, I think of an albatross. Bailey: WHAT? Venice, gesturing to an imagined Albatross in the background.

Panel 1: Bailey: That's so specific... John: I think of a red-capped sparrow. Bailey: Huh? John cleans his glasses, Bailey looks at him in shock. Panel 2: John: It's the most common bird in Kintargo. John puts his glasses on, as a common red-capped sparrow appears in the background. Panel 3: Draki, what do you think about? Draki pinches her nose, either annoyed or trying her best to think. Panel 4: Draki: I don't... think about birds. Draki shrugs, behind her is a large NO sign that just reads BIRDLESS.

A goofy conversation that mostly happened in one of our early sessions that I haven't stopped thinking about.

digital painting of Hiimeyu's character Neriah. The image depicts her torso up holding out a red gemlike sword. She's clad in purple and white garb with gold details along with two large golden pauldrons with feather details. Her long curling hair is detailed with small golden flowers as she tilts her head updward while peering down with golden eyes.

My part of a lil art trade with @hiimeyu.bsky.social of their oc Neriah! I truly should cut out more time in my scheduele for trades, they are always a joy to do

I think I probably have an unfair advantage 😆 … “i assume they would have flirted with their genie-powered ship” feels unfair

A dower and serious knight in dark corvid themed armor looks over his shoulder at the viewer, speckles of snow falling around him as he keeps his back turned, a faint red tint in his eyes.

"If you can look into the seeds of time and say which grain will grow and which will not...."

A fateful Crystalhue brought a dark knight caller in service to the Winterwoven. Beckoned by warmth and hearth offered in earnest trust...

Tragedy years in the making.
