Dnd5e - Blog Posts
I have made an archive blog for Dungeon Master Inspiration!
Are you a Dungeon Master? Do you run a fantasy ttpprpg in D&D 5e or Pathfinder 1e/2e? Or maybe the new Daggerheart or the MCDM rpg? Either way - I made this fantasy archive blog for Dungeon Master inspiration where I reblog all of the cool stuff that I happen to stumble upon here on tumblr. Maybe you will find it useful! It is easier to know if you check it out ;)
Some Oathmark Orc Infantry, assembled and painted to represent a specific faction from the D&D game I'm running. The Aak Qarsoq Garrison - Bloodspear Legionnaires. Orcs and half-orcs from the cold, deep south. They wield long, barbed sarissa lances and dress in armors made from the monstrosities they have felled.
I have been watching both Dungeon Meshi and Nausicää lately - so naturally I felt like drawing an elf fighter with insectoid carapace armor! WIP WIP WIP
I just realized! I never uploaded any of my D&D maps here? I should do that. This one is from the game I run with my lovely 7-person group. The time of the Great Cities is over and The Magor Valley is now dominated by goblin tribes. If only someone could do something about it.
More D&D "maps". Some sessions ago, the guys in my long-running campaign saved a count's life and was rewarded with an old border fortress. Probably not cursed.

You know what? Let's have some more goblins. A peaceful one and - eh, a less peaceful one.
Beholder Zombie from my home D&D game. It was the end boss of an arc - legendary actions and all!
My d&d players faced off against some evil dwarves this evening. I had drawn how I imagined them, but waited with uploading as to not spoil the surprise.
And yes, they were homebrewed to have Princess Mononoke-esk firearms.
I made my D&D players new miniatures - now with additional spells/summons
A Coin-Maker of the famed Golden Spurs and her faithful War Herbalist.
So their story is this: When a Golden Spur is knighted they receive their spurs as well as their signature coin shawl. Together with their assigned herbalist they work for the coastal banks retrieving the minted coins hoarded by dead pharaohs and kings of old.
But it is well known that looting these ancient tombs is dangerous work and as such, only those truly hungry for fame or desperate for coin, would sign up with the Golden Spurs.
I redrew my Gnome Paladin from THIS POST Yes, I drew him smaller.
I was lucky enough to be invited to play in @thedustyleaves‘s D&D homebrew game and it’s amazing! Such a great crew to play with :) This is my new character - Thymus Lodine. He is a Gnome Paladin of the Order of the Sanguine Rose. He is not very tall. I want to write more about him, but mutuals from the game might be watching and they don’t know everything about him yet.
Is it bad that I like the design of my character more than the actual character? Idk druids are just seeming like worse plant wizards.... • • •⠀⠀ • #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #dnd5e #dndart #dndcharacter #dnddruid #druid #moondruid #fantasyart #rpg #tabletop #rpgcharacter #myoc #oc #myart #art #digitalart #moon #celestial #panther #gold #5edruif #magic #characterart #fanart #mycharacter #design #fashion #vintage #elf via @preview.app https://www.instagram.com/p/BwVNftxDlaW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=7qklnvm8fs36
Meet Ivetta! My latest D&D character for a new campaign. She’s a Druid Shifter, and I’m excited to see how her character develops! • • • •⠀⠀ • #love #characterdesign #me #cute #art #photooftheday #instamood #dnd #dnd5e #dnd5e #igers #girl #beautiful #instadaily #summer #dndart #artwork #follow #moondruid #bestoftheday #happy #artists #myart #digitalart #artsy #druid #fashion #illustration #fun #moon via https://www.instagram.com/p/BwGCOzfFjy3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nyyy9sgwc69d
⨀ more sketches from the D&D campaign that ended too soon. along with some more OC ideas that were dropped.
⨀ Art I did for fun back when I used to play DND. Don't know if I'll ever go back to playing but It was fun while it lasted. I'm posting these because I'm pretty happy with the ones I did manage to get rendered. I was using Krita at the time. it was pulling teeth, I found out after I caved and bought CSP just how much I hated Krita. However, I do miss its quick toolbar, that was nice.
◉ Most of the characters are my friends' DND OCs, not mine. My characters are the blue half-elf witch (basically my persona, it was my first campaign and I didn't want to be overly adventurous), and the purple-skinned high elf in the green dress (which I made for a campaign I had to drop when my mental health jumped from a cliff).
Click read more for further character design credits. Seriously, if you like any of the characters, follow the original player, please!:
Beth (feral genasi in teal):
grace (the dragon ranger):
Emma (pink-haired bard) :
◉ I couldn't find the rest of my group's socials. welp...the rest of my group were Max (mummy monk), Luna (the young berzerker in orange), and Leah (the rouge in cyan).

I think sometimes people sleep on the idea of barbarians in more RP focused games
Yes I know we all love to play the smooth sexy person, or the ingenious trickster. However there is always a place for every class in every situation you just have to think about what your character would really do.
For instance; recently my Dragon born lumberjack barbarian Kava found herself with the rest of her party smack dab in the middle of a murder mystery. Now one of Kava’s main attributes is that she seeks simple solutions, Kava often sticks by other more investigative members of her party like the Artificer Mercer, and is honestly in her element when she has a clear directive.
You may be thinking, not the best fit for a mystery…and on the surface you’d be right after the inciting incident I attempted a few checks to investigate things…this obviously did not work because Kava has a -2 to all intelligence checks, and I found myself frustrated that none of my skills really applied to this situation. I sat at the table thinking for a few moments than I decided…well if I’m this frustrated…imagine how Kava must be feeling, Kava spent her entire life helping others and deep down enjoys being of use and helping…so I rolled an intelligence check for Kava and obviously it was very low, so I decided that Kava is going to start making poor choices and randomly start accusing people and honestly roughing them up, Kava is a blunt instrument after all.
So Kava goes into a rage accuses the butler because she was told once that it’s always the butler that did it, Kava accuses the butler, and this actually allowed me to weave in Kava’s family connection because it was Kava’s brother Tim Jr that read that in a book and told it to Kava, when convinced not to kill the poor soul right than and there she went though the house just indiscriminately accusing and yelling at people. Punching walls and clocking herself in the chin every six seconds or so to mechanically keep her rage going. This house wide rampage also allowed some nice RP moments when another party member would be questioning an NPC and suddenly a 6’ 5” Dragon born picks up that NPC and absolutely loses it and gives the help action by throwing off their guard.
Eventually I and Kava came to the same conclusion, the murder is in the house and if I can keep everyone in the same room either A by process of elimination we know who the killer is or B the killer cannot hinder our investigation. So these poor people are stuck in a room with this DRAGON who seems to be just yelling two herself, and getting deeper talking about her family and stuff. At this point another PC casts a spell on me to make Kava quieter, which kind of makes sense in character but they’re a general knob all around so that doesn’t matter.
Soon after the thinking members of our party figure out who the murders are, one paid professional, and the one who paid the professional, this means that Kava’s status as a “big axe” gets to be reinstated as we chase down the killer though the mansion. Unfortunately Kava after successfully punching her way through a caved in celling gets hit in the FUCKING FACE by a blindness effect and is essentially taken out of the fight.
But that story is just to say, it’s easy to find a way to make your character work in any situation if you can get into their head, and adjust accordingly.
