Just a healthy dose of weekly escapism. (*ᴗ͈ˬᴗ͈)ꕤ*.ﾟ𖡼.𖤣𖥧𖡼.𖤣𖥧 I really like my new Paladin, Pov. They’re always doing cool things to get me through the next week. #TTRPG

An illustration of someone dreaming about a cool TTRPG battle between a Tiefling Paladin and some Ghouls. Text reads: “No no, I don’t need therapy.” *thinking about the cool shit my TTRPG character did last session instead of my own problems*

I gotta say, I find that REAAAAL suspicious. Roli isn’t even a Warlock familiar! He’s just a cute lil guy. Probably. #OCsky

An illustration of a black cat with a squid sucker tail. He looks gleeful and holds a bundle of hair tied in a ribbon. Text reads: “A little funny that you “don’t believe in dark magic” yet you won’t give me several dozen strands of your hair.”

Are you the trinket collector, or the enabler… …or perhaps both?! 🙋✨

Three panel comic featuring a green Tiefling.

First panel: He looks concerned. Text reads: “I am not a voice of reason. I’m a voice of UNreason.”

Second panel: He looks jubilant, surrounded by various trinkets. Text reads: “Do NOT ask me to stop you from buying that trinket.”

Third panel: He looks crazed, floating in space. Text reads: “I *will* convince you it’s more necessary than breathing.”

Alvah—my second Art Fight attack!! This time for @zephyrbug.bsky.social To be honest I had a hard time picking which of their characters to draw because all their designs are fiiiiire. So I had a good time with this. 😎✨ #artfight #teamtragedy

Art of my Firbolg OC Brydi framed by flames

Art of my Tiefling OC Ophelia sat on a balcony

Art of my oc kylns hand with text that reads:
It's the taste of blood on your tongue
A bitter sweet copper tang
It always comes down to this, this retribution
Atonement for a sin you can't even remember to beg forgiveness for
Broken and unbroken
Puppeted on fraying strings by something that won't let you be
Left with nothing more than a feeling
A lingering guilt that can't be made sense of
You will dig yourself out of your grave again and again and again
They say there's no rest for the wicked
No peace to be found
You can only wonder what that says about you

Fanart of Ser Voyne from the Starving Saints

I’ve been super into Witch Hat Atelier lately, but I’ve been too busy to draw anything too involved in terms of fanart unfortunately. However I did sneak in some time to do a little drawing of Brushbuddy along with my own creature Yorith. Now excuse me while I go read more manga…

An illustration of a black cat with a singular eyeball on its face and many eyeballs on its tail. It’s sitting beside a white and long fuzzy creature, the brush bug from the manga Witch Hat Atelier.
