Assorted MS Paint drawings from a few years ago- a mixture of dnd, concept work for a writing idea currently on hold, and just generally fucking around with my mouse.

Detective Ferven Ardenring, Warder Paladin of the Flameguard. Pyara's punishment upon the rogues of our fair city of Argenclere. Local truth-sworn Devotion paladin of the state religion, the goddess of fire. Maybe a muppet.
(He/him pronouns, binary man)
#blorbo blorbo my beloved blorbo#a not insignificant factor in my realizing I was in love with our dm fdsghdfsdf#as he played the most autistic man who's ever burst into an open wake. dripping wet and ready to accuse the grieving hosts of murder.#ferven ardenring#heartroot#traditional art#spiral sketches#dnd#paladin#lawful neutral idiot (affectionate)#(he has a 16 intelligence. 4 charisma though)#man who falls for the propaganda every damn time#while simultaneously being a walking lie detector. no one does it like him (derisive)#he WISHES he was columbo

And mostly The Dead Isle with a little The Deft Blade!
Featuring the afterlife's worst, most homoerotic detectives- and the people who have to put up with them.
#interesting things happen when you turn the entire guild of sailors fishers and ferrymen into de facto law enforcement#aka the steamship ferry operator gets bedazzled by the idea of being the Hastings to this unhinged bounty hunter's Poirot#the dead isle#the deft blade#sketchbook#traditional art#artists on tumblr

Mostly concept work for The Deft Blade- though a tiny bit of The Dead Isle.
#medieval fantasy vs ...supernatural mystery?? whatever you call a murder mystery on an island in the river of death#mostly lots of Lazarte! a cool cursed knight. your big brother even.#and a bit of Goya studies due to the numerous shrouded apparitions featured in the story#traditional art#artists on tumblr#sketchbook#the deft blade#the dead isle#mostly just flycatcher and their menacing poncho

Ignatius Scarlethoof, presiding faculty of demonology at the Enchanter's School in Argenclere.
He/him (binary man)
#just a friendly wizard. don't look at his familiar.#fun little note- falcon care is limited to priestesses of Pyara#so while Ignatius is dressed in Pyaric colors (reds especially) and with a white falcon on his shoulder#anyone with basic knowledge of the church will know this man is Not a priest#dnd#traditional art#spiral sketches#heartroot#ignatius scarlethoof#hee hee hoo hoo#artists on tumblr

Fun times from the Fifth Blight!
#the second pic especially is a compilation of a rough comic outline I made#in which the party has a discussion on the semantics of 'tits' and whether men have them#maybe someday if the dragon age flea bites me again. it will be finished#nothing gives me greater joy than these stens#dragon age#fanart#dragon age origins#da:o#sten#alistair theirin#zevran arainai#and assorted other members of the party#mostly sten.#(and my older warden cursed to chaperone four college students)#mat seeing sten in the cage after weeks of wandering through the wilderness with Morrigan and Ali bickering the whole way: oh thank Andrast#spiral sketches

Wyvern chasing a griffin chasing an archdemon
Fossils from my years-long Dragon Age hyperfixation.
#also a funky highwayman I made for a one-shot that has been put on hold#have I played dragon age?? ever?? no#have I been cursed with knowledge? like adam and eve slurping down a tub of applesauce#anyways. I'm normal now! I can contemplate Loghain Mac Tir without having to go on a multiple-hour rant to myself#thank god for dnd#traditional art#fanart#dragon age#uuugh#loghain mac tir#sketchbook#kestrel why are you so into fucked-up Ends Justifies Means Paladins and Rangers#it's not as though you went so insane over the Grey Wardens that you had to make your own Order of Morally Fraught Knights to play with
