A collection of hand-drawn character icons for use as tokens/portraits in Break!! RPG.
Want free art for your TTRPG? Do you have a more anime-inspired theme at your table? Do you play BREAK!! RPG specifically and need portraits for all those specific species?
I had the pleasure of working with the creator of BREAK!! RPG for this portrait pack. Inside you'll find 33 unique character portraits for use on your character sheet, as tokens on your favorite VTT, or however else you see them fit to use. These are totally free to download, so please feel free to stop by and grab them for your own game, be it Break, Fabula Ultima, 5E, Sword World, or anything else.
Thanks!
I don't usually show off Christmas presents, but my brother and sister-in-law are in town from Japan this year, and I want to acknowledge the aptness of their choices.
(Note: please disregard the pizza slicer. I absent-mindedly included it in the composition because it happened to already be on the table when I set up this photo; it is not part of the present.)
Sword World by Ryo Mizuno with cover art by well-known illustrator Yoshitaka Amano (Kadokawa Shoten, 1989). Ryo Mizuno was the DM for the D&D campaign that became the basis for his Record of Lodoss War books and anime.

Have you played SWORD WORLD RPG ?
By Group SNE
It's typical swords and sorcery, with its own tinge of fantasy that makes it feel slightly more like playing through an older JPRG than it does "Playing DnD". The rules are pretty simple to grasp and the system only uses d6 dice due to the fact that most people in Japan didn't have easy access to other unique dice in the 80s.
Have you played ?
Yes I have played it
No but i've read it
No but I've heard of it
Never heard of it
I recently read the translated Sword World RPG books (2.5)...
And I gotta say, a lot of Dungeon Crawler/"D&D Inspired" anime makes a lot more sense.
So you know Sword World, that tabletop RPG that Group SNE made when TSR* decided they didn't need the easy in that Record of Lodoss War gave them into the Japanese RPG market? Well, it's getting an English translation.
Konnichiwa! We’re Ai and Shawn from Mugen Gaming, and we’re incredibly excited to share a big announcement: We’re localizing the Sword World
*Which had a long, long history of fucking up their position as the 800-pound gorilla of the industry before they finally got bought out by WotC.
