Here's a dump of some concepts and art for a TTRPG I'm working on!

The setting is fantasy 1920's in a the independent city state of Beetle's Bauble, a modern magical city heavily influenced by Manila, Singapore, Hong Kong, San Francisco, and Mexico City.

This city, is the coveted jewel of the imperialist eyes of the Old World (fantasy Europe) and the constant target of intrigue and espionage in attempts for them to steal new magical breakthroughs and technology.

The shadow of a looming modern magical war sweeps across the old world, while the New World must contend with a decades long war of attrition off the coast with Krakens. Massive magical beasts emerging in mass off the western coasts of the New World devastating the coastline.

This is all background and context in the game, because you're going to be playing as civic ghost hunters, keeping Beetle's Bauble safe from malicious spirits and a new emerging threat recently discovered by a bungled heist.

I'm constantly working on it and posting more detailed stuff on my Patreon! Please help support me while I work on this and a myriad of other unrelated projects I do for a living now!

THE DECK OF MONSTERS 2

Hello hello brave travelers!

I reach out to you from the ether to announce that the project I am doing illustration for has officially launched! The Deck of Monsters 2!

It's a deck of 53 new and original monsters compatible with Monster of the Week!

Stop me if you've heard this one. An independent career focused woman gets lured to a small town that's way too into Christmas. She meets a generic, yet handsome, man who shows her the meaning of the season and they end up falling in love. She quits her job, divorces her fiancee, and lives the rest of her life in this happy Christmas town. This is propaganda and these innocent women are his marks. These monsters feast on stolen ambition before forever trapping their victims in a holiday hellscape they can never hope to escape from.

Creatures that are literally spineless, Yesmen inhabit the highest echelons of capitalist society. They have always infiltrated human power structures to push for, and enable, greater and greater atrocities that cause greater and greater human suffering. It just so happens that in the modern world they choose to be corporate vice presidents to have easier access to morally compromised mortals. They're just so easy to direct towards enacting harm on their fellow humans,  after all. Nothing to read into about that. The system works.

We got a bunch more monsters in this deck that are illustrated by a team of sure shot artists and yours truly!

You can also peruse through the myriad horrors and use them for other tables tops and scenarios! The Kickstarter is live today and at it's top tier YOU can play as horrific creator and work with us to create a monster that is included into the deck!

So what are you waiting for hunters?

Let's go to the Kickstarter and Hunt!

But to be fair I don't think I've ever not been in a UFO and aliens mood.
