I’m running a Halloween one shot where everyone is playing children, so I made mini character sheets for my players. This was a great chance to really pare down the standard WoD/CoD character sheet to its essentials, and make some modifications. Details of changes under cut.
Does anyone have room for another player or have been wanting to put a group together for a Mage: The Ascension game/campaign? I’ve never played but I really want to.
some NPC concept art for the Geist chronicle I am working on. These are Sin-Eaters, people who have been brought back to life by an archetypal ghost that follows them around.
SomeartworkI used as inspiration for one of the geists
vampire sketches, because all I think about now is vampires. Featuring Jaz and her new ghoul.
Sorry for the lack of art over the past few weeks, I’ve been working on some illustrations I wanted to share but was then hit with some pretty severe insecurity and anxiety over the quality of my artwork. I’m working on it

ITEM: Your character gets one object of your choice. It can have an obvious use or not, but it must fit your character and be important to them. Examples: a first aid kit (+1 die for Survival: medical), a walkie-talkie set, a camera, a favorite toy, etc.
Starting Sanity: 7. Replaces Morality.
Gossip- hybrid knowledge and social skill also used for Occult checks. However, even with a good roll, GM may give players inaccurate information.
Navigation- knowing where you are, and how to get to or from a place.
Skill cap: 4. Children have had less time to develop skills.
SinceMage: the Awakening 2nd Edition is out now, I can finally share these! <3 I got to do the iconic characters for the Paths, which was pretty freaking awesome. Mage has always been conceptually my favorite of the WoD lines, old or new or Chronicles, though I only ever got to play one brief, glorious session of M:tAw 1st.
So I figured I’d talk a bit about the unique setup of The Edge of Thorns and what our GM has done to make this unlike any other Chronicles of Darkness game I’ve played.
Our GM is a huge, huge Changeling fan and she’s run a series of Changeling: the Lost games before, including a shorter, five session or so campaign for most of our group. This campaign, she wanted to try something different: instead of building characters with the entire supernatural template (as is commonly done in CoD games), we were instructed to build normal human characters without any of the supernatural benefits or powers. We were told that our template would be applied later on.
What this means is that when making our characters, we had no idea what changeling seemings or kiths we’d be turning into (for those unfamiliar with the game, seeming is the type of creature you turn into, such as Beast, Darkling, Ogre, while kith is more of a specialized form of that seeming, such as Bright One, Notary, Leechfinger). We still don’t know for sure - one player is pretty sure she’s got her ideas locked down, but our GM has said that what we become is dependent upon the actions we take while we’re in Arcadia and in the clutches of our Keeper. We were just instructed in anticipation of the next session to choose our favored regalia (a type of power we have access to), so it looks like things are about to start getting weird up in here.
As far as what we’ve picked for our regalia, well, that would be ruining the surprise a bit, wouldn’t it? At this point, we the players barely know anything more than you the readers about what our characters are going to be. At this point, we’re all champing at the bit for our next session to see what happens to our characters and to start applying the supernatural template to our sheets. Stay tuned for more!
Hey guys! Check out the blog one of my players is making for a CtL game I’m running! It’s a grand experiment I’m sure you’ll enjoy (and I know my player would appreciate the attention!
