[A comic featuring characters from the Rusty Quill Gaming Podcast. In the first image, Sairah and Hamid sit together on a bench with Skraak leaning over the top. All are dressed in formal wear, and Skraak is wearing an elaborate feathered hat. Sairah, holding up a glass of a bubbling glass of alcohol, says, “Right, right -- but who are all these people? Last time we saw each other there weren’t so many of you.”
Hamid says, “Oh, uh, right, of course! Let’s see...”
Next, we see a group of different characters gathered together, talking and drinking. The first is a smiling, wild-haired human. Hamid says, “There’s Howard Carter -- you’ve probably heard of the work he’s done in archeology.” Next is a human with a lean face and voluminous hair, wearing an open-chested jacket. He’s leaning down, passing a goblet to a tall elf with whiskery sideburns. Hamid says, “And there’s Carter’s boyfriend, James Barnes, with his partner, Cel Sidebottom.” Next to Cel sits a dwarf with a lion-like mane and beard, wearing an admiral’s uniform. Hamid says, “and their boyfriend, Zolf Smith.” A human wearing a frilly, elaborate suit and playing a lyre stands back-to-back with Cel; Hamid says, “That’s Zolf’s life partner, Oscar Wilde -- you two have worked together, right?”
The next scene is set against a background of stars and distant trees. A tall orc with small horns and spiralling ear patterns dances with a human in a tailed waistcoat. Hamid says, “You’ve met Cel’s -- and my -- girlfriend, Azu, of course. The woman she’s dancing with is her wife, Kiko.”
We pan to two new characters, both wearing laurel wreathes, set against the backdrop of the night sky. The full moon looms behind them. The first is a human wearing a Cloak of the Bat over a Roman toga, and the second is a fuzzy, hooved goblin with batlike ears. Hamid says, “And, uh -- oh, there they are! That’s Azu’s girlfriend, the ghost of Sasha Rackett. The goblin is Grizzop drik acht Amsterdam. He’s Sasha’s, uh -- life partner? Death partner?”
“Partner in crime,” interrupts a second speech bubble.
“Ha! Yeah. Thanks, Skraak,” says Hamid.
The comic returns to Sairah, Hamid, and Skraak on the bench. “Wow. And where do you fit into all this?” says Sairah.
In close-up, Hamid looks down, bashful. “Oh! Well, uh... I -- I mean, Azu and I are kind of dating, I suppose,” he says. “And Skraak and I are, uh --”
“Nestmates,” says Skraak.
“Yeah,” says Hamid. “But mostly.... mostly, we’re family. All of us.” End.]

He has glasses on and is smiling and gesturing. The second shows him in his hero costume, a tight-fitting black and white skinsuit with a blue cape and mask that evoke a butterfly. His turban is now white.]

Sometimes I think about how every time Gertrude Robinson is mentioned she's destroying something and every time Agnes Montague is mentioned she's carefully observing something and The Parallels Make Me Melt

for your consideration: joseph with a dragonfly theme and morgan continuing to steal my heart
[ID: digital paintings of the Chapter and Multiverse characters Morgan and Joseph. Both are wearing their superhero costumes. Morgan, a muscular caucasian woman with voluminous auburn hair and tattoos on her upper arms, wears casual jeans and a high-collared sleeveless shirt cut to show cleavage and embroidered with floral designs like her tattoos. Her eyes are hidden by a bright green mask, she wears a laurel crown, and plant leaves pepper her hair with more pops of green. She stands confidently, though there’s uncertainty in the set of her mouth. Next is Joseph, a skinny caucasian man. He wears black jeans and an oversized, purple-gray hoodie with designs evoking insect wings. His helmet resembles a dragonfly head: huge, iridescent eyes, mandibles, and little horns, all but the eyes painted black. He stands at the ready, his expression impossible to discern through the helmet. End ID.]
I binge listened to all of Stellar Firma in a week, so here's the obligatory "I listened to a podcast!" brainrot with a David Seven design. This is them Ep 1 and post failed-clone-rebellion.
you can't see it from the angle I drew them at, but the foot portion of the onesie would be made of soft foam rubber with holes in the soles for clone slime drainage, kind of like crocs.
[ID: a digital drawing of the four PCs from the Chapter and Multiverse special: Vampire Cowboys. The drawing uses lots of different shades of red. At the far left is Cigar Lionel, a white vampire with short dark hair. He is tipping his cowboy hat. Next to Cigar is Choo Choo Strongstart, a white vampire with brown hair in two braids. She is gripping onto her arm and her eyes are wide. She is smiling slightly and her mouth is covered in blood. Next to Choo Choo is Squishy Chewing, an elderly black vampire with grey hair in cornrows. They have their arms crossed and a striped red walking stick. They look grumpy. Next to Squishy is Gunbo Baggins, a white vampire with a brown mullet. He has his arms crossed and is leaning against the side of the picture. He is winking. They all have their names written next to them. The background is a red-ish beige. End ID.]
Anyway! I asked my dear friend to draw the tattoos because he's very good at it. Let's call it a Collab between me and him. Featuring our beloved Dwarf enjoying his vacation :)
