I'd love if you knew you were on my mind / Constant like cicadas in the summertime

Some very heavily Chappell Roan inspired pining Glassbriars for @metagamingseagull for the @d20exchange.

Thank you for your wonderful prompts list, I let my sapphic dreams go a bit wild and went full Chappell Roan inspired for their outfits. I had enough concepting that I have included a concept moodboard below the cut, as well as a version of the art without the lyrics on it.

Dice and Diction zine

Support the 2024 D20 zine jam! | @d20zinejam

I wrote a poem for the Dice and diction poetry zine! You can read it in the zine itself or under the cut.

The stages of a lost divinity

(A D20 Fantasy High poem, about Galicaea and Ruvina losing their siblings)

A god is dead

I cannot speak

A name is lost

My lips are sealed

Oblivati mori

Padded paws wandering a twilight forest

Sitting in the clearing

Fireflies dancing to the chorus of crickets

Stars twinkling in the deep purple above

Sisters laughing about nonsense

It was ripped from me

I snarled, fangs bared

Yellow eyes glared at the world

If only I was permitted to attack who harmed

What I had cherished

There was an undeniable pull

A shift in my form

I begged to those below my pedestal

But they did not listen

Because they believed in their pride

An empty shell is easier to mold

Heaviness weighed me down

If I curled up in the moon

And disappeared forever

Would I then be free?

Worshippers shape the worshipped

What I am owed is forgotten

I hide myself in what I cannot change

There is a beast inside and a piece broken

But I must accept it

I am grace

I am elegance

I am the moon

-

They destroyed everything I loved

-

A god is dead

I cannot speak

A name is lost

My lips are sealed

Oblivati mori

There are four of us

The warmth I feel makes me smile

Sun sparkles against white snow

The world is balancing

Only we can change it

A fierce blizzard picked up

Mere mortals froze in my frenzy

The frost bit

The wind chilled

It was not the only storm that raged on

My siblings begged me

I cried right back

In a world of giants I still had no power

I wished for a chance to restore her

But no one believed in who she was

That winter was the worst ever seen

Desolate and alone

Untouched snow and caves without an echo

No fires could sustain their strength

Snowflakes dripped down my cheeks

I have not yet lost my own identity

The embrace of my followers

Reminds me of past kindness

I cling to it like my last lifeline

And wish for their pain to be erased

I am cold

I am gentle

I am the winter

My Shriek Week piece for the @d20megazine last year.

There needs to be way more Shriek Week art. I loved this series so much.

This was for the Green zine for d20 zine jam 2023.

I did a redraw of a past Sam Nightingale piece I had done previously. I really loved my redraw, especially as I got to update the design to fit with Sam from the Seven. I love a tragic strangle by Penelope Everpetal theme.

A piece for the zine An Incomplete Chronicle of Life in Calorum for the D20 zine jam 2023. It is a crown of candy based original character zine.

The two in the main picture are my ocs Nori Maguro and Gillian Maguro who are twin sister. Nori is more mermaid, with seaweed hair and a tuna tail. She has to get around on land with a wheelchair. It was built for her by her sister, Gillian, who has the head of a tuna.

Two ocs from other creators are in the background.

This was for a Neverafter original character zine I joined last year for zine jam. Check out Witches, Warriors and Wolves.

Meet Princess Johanna, Prince Rowan, and the Pea

Pea: Warlock Patron Princess: Undead Warlock/Sheperd Druid Prince: Undead Warlock/Gloomstalker Ranger

"The Prince finds no ordinary Pea, but instead one with a consciousness, speaking in his head. The Pea soon convinces him that if he wants its power the Prince will need to find a Princess. And the Pea on a certain stormy night chooses Princess Johanna, also able to speak in her head. The Pea is an old undead being trapped within a pea by a fairy, but allowed a loophole by the wicked fairy. They start the Cult of the Pea, so that the Pea can build its power to eventually be free, with the Prince and Princess following loyally. "

Considering D20 zine jam 2024 is almost upon us I really should post mine from last year so here we go. Queen of never posting my stuff.

Food for thought is the zine I ran last year. It is a poetry zine with amazing contributions from 7 creators. Please check it out.

Late, but here is my art piece for the Fiendish prophecies zine. I had to do the moment between Fig and Adaine in the mall episode because I love their shared connection. I did it in a comic book type style because I love exploring different art styles, and I thought it fit this moment.
