Old School Roleplaying Guide: Principia Apocrypha

+David Perry recently published a Old School Roleplaying Guide that I illustrated.

I am really happy with how David used my illustrations. People often have a hardtime to put them in valor in the layout but there the result is super nice. I was also careful to add a lot of contrast (I am learning from my commissioned work).

Also I think that the introduction about participating in online communities is important even if some people will take it personally and get defensive about it (as usual on the internet). 

Thanks to the little DIY/OSR communities I am interacting with, your creativity and support is always inspiring. <3

Doodle Temple (zine)

I made a new zine: The Doodle Temple.

This one is in color, so I won't have the budget to print it, but it's ok since it was fun to work with colors. (I doodled everything with ball point color pens).

The temple is more of a illustrated tool box than a actual dungeon (there is no map).

But the way I see it, the Doodle Temple create new rooms when you are distracted, so in a sense it's a infinite random dungeon. (A nice fit with Narcosa).

A way you can use the temple to generate a dungeon on the fly:

Each time the group enter a new room roll 3d6, remove the "1" and distribute the remaining results between those elements (so you get 0 to 3 elements by rooms):

• Stair Tube: (2-3) go up, (4-5) go down, (6) go somewhere else (I did not drawn the tubes)
• Doors & Windows: (2-3) obstructed, (4-5) locked, (6) unlocked
• Traps: (2) victim in a trap, (3-5) one trap, (6) two traps
• Creatures: (2-3) traces, (4-5) one type of creatures, (6) two type of creatures interacting 
• Treasures: (2-3) leftovers from a stolen treasure, (4-5) one treasure, (6) bigger but hidden treasure
• Altars: (2-3) cult objects linked to the altar, (4-5) one altar, (6) creatures praying at a altar
• Specials: (2-3) it's just decoration, (4-5) magical trick or trap, (6) dangerous boon or upgrade 

Roll in the zine to generate things.

Or to go faster you can simply roll 2d6, choose two category of elements and directly read the results in the zine.

Also in each rooms, you can roll a bunch of d6 to generate some furniture.
