The last one is just for me. It's my leonin druid Khadhi with her lover, Adrik, sharing a tender moment reading together in his study. The pictures behind them are of Adrik's late wife and their daughter, and Bernard, an NPC who had his own major campaign moment. I just *love* these two together. 🥰

A blue devil with golden eyes is tenderly holding a leonin with long curly hair. They are both reading on a couch, sharing a blanket. Khadhi is leaning against him and he has his arm around her affectionately. He's smiling contentedly while she is transfixed on her book. She loves erotic novels and I think she would have been super into Astarion fiction, so I used the cover for T. Kingfisher's new Astarion backstory novel for the book cover, the blurb for the back, and grabbed a page of Astarion smut from AO3 for the inside. None of it is legible, but I think it's a fun detail. There are book cases and a table behind them. A candle is burning casting a warm glow on the couple and decor in the room. The table has two portraits on it, as well as a vase of flowers, and a large shell on a stand.

This one is of Kermet and Harry's son, Scoot, who wants to study to be a lawyer, and Kickstand, the little stoat boy our party rescued from a pack of cultists who were using him as a housekeeper. We collectively unofficially adopted him. Sketch phase on this is by @thebeardlyben.art, thank you Ben!

A half orc boy with dragonborn horns sits on a big beanbag reading a large book titled "LAW AND ORDER VOL III". He's in a well lit room with wooden flooring. Next to him is a backpack for school, and on his other side, a young anthro stoat in winter pelt is drawing with coloured pencils. He's drawn a skull and crossbones as well as a blue devil holding a red sword. Next to him on the floor is a little wooden sword. He is wearing a red scarf and looks adorable. His tongue is out as he concentrates on his drawing.

This one is for @dernooks.bsky.social of his kenku fighter (a clockmaker by trade) Karra, with his husband Zephyr (tabaxi rogue) the morning after their wedding. I thought it would be really sweet to show them cuddling and happy after going through so much hardship together.

This is for @lupusdei.bsky.social of his incredibly fun kobold warlock, Kane (strapped to the rocket) and his parents, with whom he was reunited over the course of the campaign. He was separated from them as a small child and the arc to get them back was one of my favourite parts of the campaign. 💖

Three kobolds on a grassy cliffside at night. One of them (Kane) is strapped to an enormous rocket, which his dad (Trig) is lighting. In the background his mom (Lan) is holding a fountain style firework. The sky is lit up with various fireworks exploding. All three kobolds look like they are having an absolutely great time. I hand rendered all the grass, btw... it took forever but it was worth it.

This one is of Magnus, @gibbo-za.bsky.social's dragonborn cleric and former pirate nomad. He's on the deck of the ship of his lover, Professor Switch Wilder, an adventurous were-bear who does not gaf about showing boob on their own ship. They like to steal artefacts from museums to repatriate them.
