My mind decided to hyperfixate on Clisti Mre, an npc in the Confluence TTRPG books so i drew fanart of her. She is a salian (amphibian folk) and looks like a pink angry axelotl. Zenith is smitten 😂 wish her luck in trying to date them pls she needs it

Kickstarter Update #2

A few things I'm looking forward to in October...

Hullo, hullo! Welcome to Update #2.

First and foremost, thank you to everyone who's supported my campaign so far. :) This first week I was hit by an influx of spam marketers and questionable conversations that, while a shitty achievement badge in general, I was unprepared for emotionally; but each and every one of you has been a reminder that there are real people out there who want to support real art.

Speaking of supporting real art... there are some exciting things coming up in October that I'm looking forward to supporting in my life, and perhaps it'll be stuff you'd want to support, too.

IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER 

October 15th—Confluence ft. Publishing Goblin | @publishinggoblin

Confluence is on my radar because of my low-key obsession with Publishing Goblin—'cause come on, how great of a name is that? I've supported previous Publishing Goblin projects and will likely support more of their projects in the future. Publishing Goblin brought me The Alleyman Tarot, will eventually bring me The Hot Housewife Tarot, and has been steadily working through several poetry projects. As a bit of a goblin myself, I've got a starry eyed vested interest in seeing another cool creative make art and succeed in this world; for it's art that makes the rest of it worth living.

Confluence has beautiful artwork, a trusted artist working with a diverse team, and is a perfect excuse to throw dice into trays and laugh with friends. Full disclosure: this is likely to be a nice little gift for my TTRPG loving step-son, and we'll see about bullying him into running a little campaign for me and his dad. 

October 22nd—A Fool's Errand by J Strautman | @strautmaskreplica & B Marsollier | @b-marsollier

In other TTRPG news, your friends and mine over at Planet Arcana have designed their own tarot-based system.  A Fool's Errand puts your party into the world of Planet Arcana, with it's lavish landscapes, brilliant beasts, and arcane insight. You don't need to be familiar with the podcast to enjoy the game; but if you're looking for an award-winning group of Canadians playing through a unique Tarot-Inspired universe, it's definitely worth a listen. 

Playtesting our own little calamity has been a highlight of my still-very-novice RPG experiences. I get to live out my piscean fantasties as an angry waterbreathing aquean composite, and weave a tale of prophet and mystery with some storytelling friends. We're only a few sessions into our campaign, but it promises to be a fun experience. 

Sometime in October, Probably—Refugium by Simon Roy | @simon-roy

And I would be remiss not to include my favourite comics on my list. Refugium is the third book in Simon Roy's Griz Grobus series, following the eponymous first book Griz Grobus and the second, Miramar. Simon's a fantastically detailed comic artist and works with a wonderful colourist, Sergey Nazarov, to bring this galaxy-spanning universe to life. It's already funded, but you can buy the backlog or support Simon on Patreon while you wait for whatever he makes next. I'm trying to be patient while I wait for my copy of Refugium to arrive—hopefully sometime this month.   

Can you think of anything else exciting happening this month? Let me know. :) I always like finding new artists to swoon over. 

Stay Rested, Audrey

We are bringing a TON of awesome stuff to life with our work on Confluence RPG! If you're excited about it, follow us here, on instagram @publishinggoblin or over on twitter at @pubgobgames!

Confluence TTRPG is going to be an impossibly unique project we're bringing to life. This game will feature a diagetic series of atlases you can use to explore the space in and out of game, and rules that lead your character on personal journeys of growth and change in a world made up of 40 other worlds.

Any genre of play can happen here, but it's not vague fantasy or sci fi. It's the merchant caravans of the alfira, it's the tech suit mobility aids of the chell, it's the apportation magic using runeclocks from goblins to facilitate teleportation! This is a beautiful living world we are creating and exploring, and when it releases it will be unlike anything you've ever seen!

Sharing some Confluence work (you can find more on twitter and insta with #CosmicMirrorRPG!) There are many playable Lineages in Confluence, thousands, maybe 100s of thousands. But none are quite like the Alfira. Alfira are a small people standing 3-4 feet tall, walking both bi and quadrupedally and are best known for their innovations in smoke magic and agricultural techniques. Their cultural centers are underground except in Brellence where they have settled in agrarian communities.🐁 Mander is one of the creators playtesting characters, and he's such a cutie, i love him.

All art is mine!

Been playing my girl Zenith for the Confluence TTRPG playtest and its been a blast. She's a Hahen, folk who are basically made of color. She's bubbly and friendly, and wants to be a pirate. Rooting for her!

More Zenith! Based on a lil moment from last session in which she was excited (and gay) over this wanted criminal 😂 honestly relatable. Zenith is a character im playing in the Confluence TTRPG playtest and the poster is actually a picture from the game book. She's an npc called Clisti Mre.
