Our first official original TTRPG, Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy is planned for kickstarter launch late 2023/early 2024!
Tumblr media
Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy is an original, fully fledged, 200-page 2d6 TTRPG from The Agency of Narrative Intrigue and Mystery inspired by The X-Files, Kolchak: The Nightstalker, and much more!
Eureka features investigation mechanics that let players take initiative, use their characters’ unique strengths to find clues, and deduce conclusions themselves rather than to just walking into a room and roll Investigate.
Failed Rolls are not the End!
The Eureka! mechanic accumulates points throughout the adventure that can be used to help prevent investigators from getting totally stuck, but also a reward investigators for solving the mystery without ever getting stumped, because these points can be saved for life-or-death situations instead!
Tactical Combat!
High-stakes realistic combat can end lives in seconds through deep strategy that encourages careful thinking and allows for complex maneuvers. Thoughtful positioning, understanding of one’s surroundings, and having the right weapon for the job play as much of a role in victory as a character’s stats, if not more, which is good, because most of these PCs will not be larger-than-life action heroes!
Roleplay-driven Mechanics, and Mechanic-driven Roleplay!
Player characters’ personalities and ideals determine many of their gameplay mechanics, giving each character a totally unique way to play through Eureka! This won’t get confusing though, as all of these different mechanics use the same underlying systems that are easy to understand! Changing characters won’t require you to completely relearn the game!
Man-eating Monsters Hiding in Plain Sight!
 As investigators face off against metaphorical (or sometimes literal) monsters, the rare investigator may literally be a monster themselves, and keeping it secret from the other players while having to sate their sinister hunger is a game of intrigue all its own.
Extreme Versatility!
Eureka is designed to be able to run (just about) any adventure module set between about 1850 and the present day with hardly any adjustments to either the system or the module, no matter what system that module was originally made for! Investigation, action, survival-horror, you name it, Eureka can run it!
Tumblr media
Player-driven investigation, a rewarding system for solving mysteries themselves, realistic high-stakes combat, gameplay determined by roleplay, and inter-party deception are all features you can look forward to in Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy.
Launch is still a ways off, but it doesn’t hurt to get the word out early!

Part of Jupiter's previous crew before being marooned, Venus was a loyal and good friend to Jupiter and skilled gunslinger.
Venus has been assigned to a new team, along with Pilot and Holleran. Venus is extremely active, as she wants to be as able as possible for her physically demanding job. She's found the value in exercise after carrying a bit of chub before entering the academy for the KLES.
Venus loves the outdoors, and knows how to survive in the wild. She still worries about Jupiter, and wonders if she's still alive.

Are you a fan of pulp horror? What about TTRPGs? Then have I got something for you! My brand-new, completely original TTRPG Haunt Hunters is now available on DriveThruRPG - just in time for Halloween!
It's a rules-light d6-based system, designed to be easy to learn and simple to play for both GMs and players. The players are a ragtag team of amateur ghost hunters, a la Scooby-Doo, Ghostbusters, Phasmophobia, or Betrayal at House on the Hill, going to haunted sites and dealing with the entities there. How exactly they deal with them is up to them to decide! It's designed with a very episodic, monster-of-the-week structure in mind, which also makes it perfect for one-shots and more sporadic games - though of course, it can tell larger-scale stories very effectively!
It's pay-what-you-want, so no pressure to put money into it that you don't have - but that being said, any money you can spare is very much appreciated! Those bills won't pay themselves, hehe.

a comic about my name
this is just the way I look at it to feel empowered/at peace with how I'm called different names by different people
obviously it's not the same for everyone but looking at it like this is just what made me happy

With TSS coming up I thought it was the perfect excuse to make myself a new character so here’s Alvah! She’s a reborn tiefling grave cleric who strives to work against the natural order, trying to achieve eternity for all 👁️⚰️🤍
It’s been a while since I made myself a character and I've had my eye on grave cleric for some time now, plus don’t have many tieflings so this was the perfect opportunity to finally make a character that was both!

And another outfit for the OC Outfit challenge! This time it's Adallind, a Centaur forge Cleric for @/seanjhermanart on instagram! I have never drawn a horse centaur until now which I'm a bit ashamed to admit. I've had dragontaurs, griffontaurs, mantaurs, but somehow not a normal horse centaur. Not like I've drawn many horses--
Anyhow, I wanted to play a lot with the forge aesthetic and went with a blacksmith/fire theme here. And somehow, green is also on the menu, since it's Adallind's favourite. All in all a very challenging piece, but one I'm quite proud of!

A little sneaky preview of the first few pages of my comic, Strange Waters! The 31 page comic I made for PCAF Perth, following the backstory of my ASOIAF tabletop character Gwyn and his mysterious Ironborn upbringing. (Our campaign is run by @oneirotect with my fellow pc @clownprincenico) It made me so incredibly happy to draw so many seals.
I'll have physical copies available to purchase when my shop reopens next friday! (16th August 2024) and it will later be available to purchase as a PDF or to read on my website! I'll keep you updated!

Can I tempt you with seals and Gwyn's hot uncle?

"Lost my mask. I don't have communication or anything. I think my team left me here to die. I'm not dead. I'm screwed, I don't think I'm going to be alive for much longer now that I have an angry general trying to catch and kill me. I barely lived through the encounter earlier.
At least I'm alive. Somewhat."

Whistler, Bard of the Traveler
Realized I never posted this guy anywhere other than IG.... NPC for my best friend @ydteus 's dnd campaign! Whistler is.... Odd. Always talks in riddles and enjoys being distinctly uncomfortable to people. As the current herald of the Traveler, his purpose (and the god's) is currently unknown 👁️
Puppets are our party for the campaign : )

It kicks at your shins, steals all your clothes
These are the likes of a man that takes what he owns (inspired by this)

Beedle & Goodfellow
Goodfellow is a warforged barbarian dnd character I want to use if I ever get to play someday. Figured I'd draw his backstory even if I never do 😊
