Looked up while DMing tonight to see this. Clearly Sophie is the chosen one.

Didn’t intentionally paint the most Halloween mini in my to do pile on October 1 in Salem but was I on theme? Yep…

Ran the first session of our Nine Hells meets Regency game last night and I wanted the NPC list to read like the dramatis personae of a drunken Shakespeare knockoff with a dash or Pratchett-esque playfulness and I think I got it:

Lord Zudwick Pussington the Third

Harlgrist of the Seven RIngs

Kelemi Blackwing

Corbin Steed, the once-headed

Theseus Bathomir

Endolyn Lolthsworn

Burbury Chance

Ruddy Rince

Obrina and Tirnan of the Gray Veil

Lords Dyck and Bawls, two goblin noble bachelors

Wandred Tos, hot priest

Beacon, an angel

(In defense of the goblin nobles, two of the players showed up playing goblin noble sisters named Tit and Tat and I said if they're going to make me say "Tit" as a PC name for the next two years I'm going to have my revenge early)

I have got to stop making npcs from our home game in the Baldur’s Gate 3 character creator.

Why aren’t you sleeping?

I’m hypnotized is why

Got the old DnD crew together in person for the first time in 3 years and newrly had a pvp tpk on thr way out of the dungeon. Good times. (They attempted to institute socialized healthcare for all.) l

When the cat who doesn’t show affection often shows aggressive affection, you just take it I guess

When you thought the players were going to run a heist and they decided to destroy the oppressive prison by force and suddenly it’s a three hour battle. I love this game.

Have I mentioned the full-cast audiobook version of the Indestructibles is now available? Because it is, and this cast is amazing.

Sunday morning wake up with the pup.

[matthewphillion]

Working on putting a Vampire: the Masquerade podcast together with a story based in Salem, MA. Here is our story pitch… currently casting.

[matthewphillion]

How about a Sunday morning cover reveal? Fools & Heroes collects the two most recent novellas in the Dungeon Crawlers series (previously available only in digital format). As always, had a blast working with Sterling Arts & Design on the cover. Available soon - I'll post a link once it's live.

So this happened, and now I need recommendations… for a writer who isn’t good at games.

Another concept piece - Entropy Emily was always the hardest to pin down looks-wise, and her powers are visually hard to represent. A bokeh light eftect and some retro swirls helped with this one. 

[matthewphillion]

Trying to use Tumblr more and realized I never posted any of the Indestructibles concept art. Figured it’d be fun to share some. Here’s an early cover design for the 2nd edition of the series when we knew there’d be a book for each of the lead characters.

Me: I think dry-brushing textures on wings is the most relaxing thing I do.

Steph: I think painting is the ONLY relaxing thing you do.
