The DM for this game attacked my character with (literally) my character and I lost. In all actuality though, this was one of the coolest moments in this campaign thus far and was 100% a result of my character's own reckless decisions.

Fuurai

A long, lllooong time ago, I got to play DnD for the first times.

I am beyond rubbish at rules and numbers and all the stuff you really need to have at least a shadow of a knack for, to enjoy DnD, also I'm a role-player and the DM was much, MUCH more of a roll-player. ...I never took to it. I preferred all the other available options. Still do.

But I did create a character I grew to like. 16-year old Fuurai, short for 風来人 fuuraijin (wanderer; vagabond; capricious person; hobo​) which, the character felt, fitted very well. They weren't human, anyway, they were Air Genasi (simplified: half air-djinni). 16 because we started on level 1, and 16 was the youngest you could be according to the rules, and I found the numbers so damn weird in representing skills... I knew and could do more with chance of success, than my character, at that age. (Role-player, again, fluff over crunch I think they call it). The campaign didn't last long, I absolutely did not fit in, but I did get to ask my partner "did you have to make a new character?" every time he got back home after DnD nights, and sometimes he was cheerful and said "no, we survived!"

Like I said... I always preferred other systems, other worlds. Also, when it comes to D20, it's me and Will Wheaton. (In fact, that went for ALL dice rolls for several years; I refused to roll my own rolls because it was so ridiculous).

But I got to reuse Fuurai! Mmmany years later, another partner wanted me to guest-star, with a guide-type character, to help the other PCs in their Quest. I rolled up Fuurai again and got stupid good rolls. My D20 dice "luck" had become merely "you roll bad kind of often, don't you", and I had bought special sparkly Fuurai-coloured dice. I think we played DnD 5E, and Fuurai was a rogue/guide.

Anyway. They took their job as a guide seriously, and I took seriously the fact that I wasn't a regular PC, but a guest. Which was lucky, because when leaving a certain island... the other players left Fuurai behind. They didn't remember until later, "oh shit no we'd never forget!"

"Too late! You all said you don't do retcons, when I joined," said I, and wrote a postlude for myself, about Fuurai being left behind but figuring out how to deal anyway. As they always did, and do.

But, both they and I enjoyed it while it lasted, and another player who is infinitely better than I at artsing, did some fanart. And I did my bloody best at getting that damn armour to look somewhat functional. The pose is a bit wonky, that was mostly intentional, and it looks OH so much better irl, because it is, drumroll please,

watercolour on 300gsm paper

because that is how I do, and I have a curse concerning scanning art, so a friend had to help. It is what it is. The best I could cobble together.

These days, especially after a certain HUGELY famous DnD campaign got one of them on screen, Air Genasi fanart is common online. When I played Fuurai, it was very much not. Evidence: My "Air Genasi" art folder on the computer. I looked at my own art from all that time ago, and I have to say, I still love Fuu's looks. I'll close this long post with a photo of that first drawing. It's probably around 10-15 years between the two. At that time, none of us had any idea there was anything beyond the binary genders. I always knew I, and many characters of mine, didn't fit them, but... Oh well, we live, we learn! In the redo, Fuu was definitely nonbinary. Feminine in looks, but, not female.

[petite-sami]

Beau and Dumitra Hi everyone! It's been too long!! Work has been crazy! I hope you are all doing well. Today I got for you a colored sketch of Beau and his fiancé, Dumitra. This is also me just trying out some things with watermarking. Something I hate to do, but it's a level of protection for my art while I read up more on invisible and embedded watermarks. If you are a fellow artist - or have heard anything about this - what have you been using/hearing about to keep your work out of the databases? #noAI #airgenasi #satyr #dndart #sketch #dndcharacters #fantasy #beautheairgenasi #dungeonsanddragons #ttrpgart #characterdesign #characterart

Been trying to go out of my comfort zone recently so I drew a more action-heavy scene from the beginning of the campaign I’m currently playing.

Started session 1 of a campaign my best friend is DM'ing. So excited to finally be playing Dain!

Slowly I am making tokens for the PCs in one of my D&D groups (and a few of the npcs!) and the first one I sharing is my character Lùell

"An appreciative, juvenile air genasi with blue skin, curly grey hair in cornrows, and blue eyes. She has a solid physique, and is training to become a town crier."

Today I took a much different direction with a character I’m playing this Friday! This is Blight, an air genasi monk (way of mercy) who is unfortunately a cursed Wereboar. I love the idea of the physical form mixing with the elemental, so to have that classic pelt bursting with blackened smoke and whirling around with every swing really got my imagination racing, and I’m really excited to see where it goes, so wish me luck! Also if you haven’t already, please consider checking out my dnd series on YouTube, the link is in my bio and I would love the support! #dnd #digitalart #monk #zannianator #lycanthrope #wereboar #boar #genasi #airgenasi https://www.instagram.com/p/CRhm2DAD1VW/?utm_medium=tumblr
