Subventure — Sewer’s angel The lady of dream lurking, the pathweaver, the mindshaper, she has many names, but her truth is silent… In Subventure’s world, entities roam the subconscious, their cultists manipulate society and mutants crawl under the streets… are this angels just another set of eldritch mutations, or are they the actual deal…

Group of subventurers VS giant crocodile in the sewers — Subventure 4 months ago, I got beaten up in the street at 2 am. Pretty badly. I survived, I’m still here. But my computer was stolen, and with it, a huge part of my work on my project Subventure, a tabletop rpg I had been writing and play-testing for 2 years, the most important thing I had on it. And yeah, I was stupid, I didn’t save it anywhere else… This artwork was an unfinished piece I had started just before my agression. Finishing it today is a way to finally make peace with what I’ve lost, and start anew on what’s left. It’s a bit rough, a bit old and imperfect, but it’s a start. After all, this universe is not in a computer. It’s in my head, and they didn’t hit it enough to get it out… So… SUBVENTURE IS COMING BACK… slowly. It is a urban fantasy RPG with bits of eldritch horror, pulp adventure, epic and cheesy stuffs, and it’s gonna be old and new and awesome.

Subventure — Knight of Aiguelombre Aiguelombre (“Shadowater“) is the biggest city in the Canals, the deep, forgotten sewers system of Subventure’s setting. This port is the spiritual capital of the Revenant, the entity of cycle, change, life and death. Knights of Aiguelombre are her paladins, her parangons, some fanatical cultists sporting diving-suit armors, rare weapons and unworldly powers. Technically, a player character can become one… but to face one is an equally big ordeal. Subventure is an upcoming RPG I have been working on for quite some times, refining it at my own lonely pace. Follow me for more on this urban fantasy universe!

THE NEW TEAMMATES FOR SUBVENTURE: CAMPAIGN 2 A wonderful RPG I have been creating.

I am so proud to present this new player characters for the new large-scale campaign of Subventure, named “the Face of the Frogs”. After the disappearance of a subway full of people, a bunch of subventurers is tasked to retrieve a mysterious object which disappeared with it… From left to right: - Abraham is the sole returning character from the first campaign. A young and naive beginner at occult investigations, he uses the telepathic powers of his late girlfriend via a phone, whose brain is in its backpack (this character…). He has recently discovered that he is also a psychic, one that can summon and manipulate ectoplasm, thus reuniting him with melinda… Also, he has a giant “otter-dragon” from the deep sewers as a semi-wild pet. - Zélie la Volte is a beggar and an assassin. Devoted to the Glow, the Entity of Hope and Promesses, she tracks and kills those who threaten the feeble lie that is hope. She uses illusion and low healing via her fireflies, and is very talented at throwing knives and carving people’s faces. - Samuel, who nicknamed himself Baron Samedi after the myth from the Surface, is a Troglodyte doctor, wandering the sewers to deliver its services to the ones that cannot pay for a hospital, coming to the surface at night to heal the beggars and the losts. Beside being a cultist of the Revenant, the Entity of Renewal and Cycles, making him the primary healer, he has a sword in its cane and its tentacles can manipulate his medicine tools to fight. - Naah Maah is a Vodian, an amphibian humanoid from the Depths of the sewers, plagued with a strong desire to be recognized as a strong member of the Troglodyte’s civilization. She is an archeologist and holds the Museum of Vodian’s History, and also a cultist of the Kleptocrat, the Entity of Materialism and Vanity. While physically weak, she has strong occult powers for manipulation and destruction, and a Vespal, a monstrous summoned wasp. - Badiane Longwander is another Troglodyte, and a hitwoman working for the Mother of Oblivion, the Entity of Nothingness and Emptiness, and guardian of the Secret. She protects the statu quo between occult and innocents by tracking those who abuse of their powers on the unknowing people. She is a ridiculously gifted sniper, with abilities to track those she remembers, negate gravity to walk on walls, or make her presence harder to be mentally perceived.

A new batch of player’s characters in Subventure, my urban fantasy rpg. Hal Kâlin is a Vodian, an amphibian humanoid from the sewers, and a smuggler with his friend Ped. Hal is also an obedient of the Kleptocrat, the Entity of Materialism, making him the negotiator of the group. But he is also the tank, as a vodian descending from the Polgoïd tribe, he can briefly regress to a more savage body, supernaturally buffing his muscles and skin. Ped Ru-K’dik is a Vestigian, a race of protohumans from the underground, with random mutations, his being a third arm and a face you won’t forget. Friend and smuggling partner of Hal, he is the brain of the group and the supportive fire, being a sharpshooter. Ped also has access to weird and mysterious powers over dreams and minds which doesn’t seem to come from any cult… The Old Clock is a mystery. Their race, age and gender are unknown. They are an original and somewhat crazy crypto-anthropologist, wearing a strange clock-helmet, stuck into a mechanical chair and gifted with telekinesis. A bizarre, flamboyant character of absurd background…
