hi hello its me posting art from my eberron campaign again, bc i had quite a few sort of… in progress and waiting for me to be able to post without spoiling. anyway i love all these children So Very Much im v proud of all of them. they just got through a pretty spooky fight w some bears where three of them went down almost immediately, but they all lived and had a bear feast. also for breakfast bramble very impressively opened a jar of jam and p much everyone were just
from left to right, upper row: zhankei the half-orc bard, miro the halfling rogue, nice the drow ranger and iago the tiefling druid. lower row: quartzite the gnome sorcerer, chalcedony the shifter bloodhunter and bramble the halfling paladin.
im DMing an online eberron campaign now, and at last, the whole gang is together and i can finally post my drawings of them all!!
i love them all very very much theyre very good in my entirely unbiased opinion, here they are, from left to right:
@aladywholayswithmaidens‘ Quartzite the rock gnome sorcerer who loves fire in all forms, mundane or magical, and also owns a huge mastiff named kitty (not pictured, but maybe one day). shes a beautiful flaming dorito who just wants Adventure.
@grandmafftarkin‘s Bramble the halfling paladin, intelligence of six, definitely knows what she’s doing, is most decidedly an aesthete, and loves the smashy smashy of both planes of existence and her warhammer smushing evil rats to the floor.
@tamaslin‘s Iago, tiefling druid, both mysterious and awkward at the same time, somehow, magically. they’re not super knowledgeable about the world around, but they’re curious to find out! iago and quartzite are also the Cool Poncho Squad.
@flarechaser‘s Chalcedony, cat girl shifter bloodhunter with the floofiest tail in all of the land. kind of quiet and serious-looking, but also she immediately bought a hat (with a matching hat pin) and a bunch of fabric in the first two days of the campaign.
@kittengrantaire‘s Miro the halfling rogue, with his cheeky crooked grin and deck of cards and definitely nothing shady going on here, never, why would you think such a thing, he’s just here to have a good time.
@lesbianomens‘ Zhankei the half-orc bounty hunter bard, fashion over function, always, a rat tore a hole in her coat and she immediately obtained supplies to fix any future issues of any of her wardrobe. her hat and general sparkliness (or perhaps just luck of the dice) causes her to always have terrible perception, cant see anything, but shes Very Charming.
@hamlinart‘s Nice (very nice), drow ranger, also very fashionable, very about the Aesthetic, especially his matching pink accessories. Has an intricate metal magic/tech combo prosthetic arm and a wolf companion named Fancy.
i wanna say so much more about all of them, but obvs its still early campaign days, so it’s all a lot of secret backstories, but i hope this at least gives an idea of them! and if feel like a proud DM parent showing everyone photos of my children, even though i guess technically they’re my players’ children.

We have never seen Larimar with this “lightening” strike looking pattern that some of these beads have! And these Carnelian are special Agate Eye Carnelian. They have adorable little dots and are a yummy tangerine color. ⬛ Please check out @houseofpawsshelter of Featured Rescue who will receive a donation from all pieces claimed - - - #larimarjewelry #larimar #larimarstone #carnelian #agate #chalcedony #seahorse #oceanside #livecrystalsale #crystallivesale #crystalmagic #dominicanrepublic #crystalcommunity #fluorite #shareyourheart #handsofspirit (at Hands of Spirit Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdriBqUO-KG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
The most prized of all the chalcedonies, chrysoprase, is the fine grained fibrous apple green variety, which owes its lovely color to the presence of hydrated nickel silicate. It is rarely seen in commercial jewelry because stones of consistent color and calibrated sizes are difficult to obtain in large quantities, but this beautiful gem often seen in designer and one-of-a-kind jewelry items.
Neo-Babylonian Cylinder Seal with Rampant Sphinxes, 7th-6th Century BC
Made of chalcedony, with opposed rampant sphinxes flanking a stylized “Tree of Life” with a winged sun-disc above, along with an eight-pointed star and crescent moon.
In Mesopotamian mythology, a crescent is a symbol of the moon god, Sin, while the eight-pointed star representsIshtar, the goddess of love and war. The winged solar disc symbolizes Shamash, the sun god. The winged human-headed animals portrayed here are referred to as “sphinxes.” They were a common motif in Mesopotamian art and are considered to be guardian type entities. The meaning of the stylized “tree of life” is still unknown and a much debated subject.
