When we ran our first session of “Bergon’s Big Top,” it was right after we were all finally able to gather in meatspace following the pandemic and I vowed to try and make DND more memorable when we all made the effort to get together. I was getting tired of trying to play behind computer screens. So, I made a ton of food, decorated the whole apartment like a circus with spotlights and all, made a party playlist, wore various costumes, had props, and honestly just went all out for the occasion to try and make it a memorable time. Pandemic was another reminder that you can’t take for granted the time you have with the people you love, so that was my way of trying to utilize our ability to have fun playing DND in person after a long two years of separation.  This was an extension of that idea, lol. I made act posters for all of my players featuring their DND characters and the acts that they perform at the circus. Everybody got to keep a big fat print of theirs as a souvenir. They were so fun to make! I love this gang!!

Here are a bunch of NPC portraits (as well as a drawing of one dear friend’s PC, Jaecob le Point- the nice man with the cards) for my second DND campaign, “Bergon’s Big Top.”  This was conceived as my first DND homebrew but then Witchlight got announced and now I may try to incorporate that somehow. We’ll see. Mostly I just wanted to bring a freaky circus to DND. We’ve been on a year hiatus from this particular game because I wanted to prioritize completing my other campaign and my partner and I had some just general life craziness, but I’ll be delving back into it come 2023 and I’m very excited! I’ve missed these characters and I’ve been scheming throughout the year for what will come next.  Badryk Bergon is the eccentric ringmaster, Beepo leads the clown troupe, Dr. Darkle is the caretaker of all oddities and performers, Moira keeps the books, Kibble is the leading lady’s personal assistant, Garfield du Hemlock is the show’s wealthy benefactor, and Zeff/Zeke are a missing double-act the players were tasked with trying to locate.
