[forging-heroes]

Humans have been creating fictional worlds since the days of campfires and cave shelters. Some of us draw, some of us write, some of us perform. And some of us use preexisting online tools intended for printed tabletop miniatures.

You may have noticed these character designs browsing various relevant tags over the past couple years (or just straight up browsing the Hero Forge tag lol.) Well, I officially passed the 200 character mark in August of 2024 so I told myself “Self, it is time to suck it up and make a side blog for your creative endeavors that you do not abandon again.” And well, here we are.

You’ll also notice that some of these are standalone, some are created in batches with a unified world behind them, and some are sequels to the former that eventually became the latter. In all cases, I am incredibly chill with other people using them for inspiration. Or hell, just lift them wholesale as-is, most of them do not have actual character names but rather are titled with phrases or tropes. I will ask that if you do you at least send me a link to whatever it is you use them for, even if it’s not my cup of tea I still want to see :) and if it is my cup of tea I’ll be reblogging it here and probably on my main at the same time.

Oh also I guess if you use them for something commercial you at the very least do something to differentiate from my initial ideas, not that I’m gonna be all “rarg blarg I sue you” but if you luck out and become the next big thing off of it and it’s obvious that you just like filed serial numbers off I will humerously but firmly point that fact out anytime I see lmao.
