When did your protagonist know the kind of person they never wanted to become?

My current WIP started out as the itch to write fanfic of my TTRPG PC and an NPC. 😅

In an ttRPG session I'm in, there is a 13 yo female NPC. I wanted my PC to greet her kindly.

My co-players and GM: that's a pedobear behavior.

Me: whaaaaa...??? 😭😭😭😭😭

Now I wonder if I can live in a society... :O

What's the best NPC your party has ever adopted and turned into a companion? #ttrpg #dnd #rpg #meme
A four-panel comic featuring a small, cute goblin-like creature named Snag and an elderly wizard. Panel 1: Snag asks, 'Master adopt Snag? So, Snag now master's pet?' The wizard replies, 'Yes, Snag, master has adopted you. Umm, not exactly a pet…' Panel 2: Snag asks, 'And master teach Snag big magika?' The wizard replies, 'Uh, maybe not big magic, but, yes, I suppose a cantrip could be possible.' Panel 3: Snag asks, 'Master is Snag's patron?' The wizard replies, 'Well, in a way, yes. I guess so.' Panel 4: A happy, teary-eyed Snag exclaims, 'Snag warlock now!' A caption below reads, 'SNAG POWERFUL!'

Been getting hit with a lot of bills recently so I've opened a patreon.

If you want to support me unconditionally, there's a tier for that.

I'll aim to put out one small ttrpg thing each month, think along the lines of a monster, item or NPC, for $3 a month. www.patreon.com/c/KellyWhyte

NPC art for some characters in a #GURPS campaign I'm throwing together, I'm really enjoying myself again drawing after awhile but still in a bit of a rut.

#TTRPG #TTRPGArt #CharacterArt #OCArt
Three characters, going left to right: A young black trans-man named Cecil Ward in dusty purple skater helmet that says "HERMES", a band-aid hiding an old scar and wearing a grey skull hoodie with some magenta tip dyed braids; holding a look of mischievous confidence. A mysterious spirit of a muscular cat-like man with spiral tattoos named Craig; holding a serene, contemplative look. A middle aged witchy-artsy white woman with noticeable piercings across her head and torso, along with a glowing pair of gauges and a marble necklace, a sparkling see-through hunter-green and maroon top barely hiding a bralette and very large curly head of hair with a natural grey money piece; holding a look of utter joy at seeing someone she loves she hasn't seen in awhile. At the bottom from left to right reads: "Witches & Bitches" Sapphire Skye W.I.P. Gurps - 10-7-26

Doing some straight-to-ink drawings on index cards for the F*CK Perfect Art Jam on itch.io which will ultimately be used in a little zine presenting NPC crew members for use in people’s Star Trek TTRPG campaigns
A collection of colored ink drawings on index cards on a clipboard. The drawings are of original characters in Starfleet uniforms: Saurian and Caitian security officers, an Afghan science officer, a Vulcan engineer, and a Mexican medical doctor.

I'm prepping for a #ttrpg session and needed some character #art for npc tokens.

In the past I've used Google images, stock photos, and I've experimented with AI. But in 2026 I'm just doodling.

In the age of AI I'm less self-conscious about artistic ability […]

What your main character is afraid to become is just as important as what they're afraid to lose.

An NPC card should tell you what someone does next.

Mara wants her daughter back. She needs outsiders because the town has stopped believing her. If ignored, she breaks into the chapel.

That is enough to start a scene, without scripting the players' response.

Actual page 3 of The Town That Forgot, headed People in Motion. Four NPC Quick Cards list wants, needs, pressure points, knowledge, actions, and next moves if ignored. Mara wants her daughter back and will break into the abandoned chapel if ignored.

I'm offering freelance services as a GM-for-Hire, Fiction editing, TTRPG game writing, or audio transcription work.

Projects worked on attached as graphics, details in ALT text.
Slayer's Survival Kit and Hunter's Journal Source books for Monster of the Week TTRPG through Evil Hat. Co-authored with Mike Sands (creator of the game) and Marek Polonka Errant Hope fantasy novel written by Damien Jennison, aka Kikoskia. I was the first pass editor for this book and the as yet unpublished book two. Double Spiral War Saga Battlefield Press obtained electronic rights to this property based on the books by Warren C. Norwood and I had several parts on this project. First, I was the one who retyped the books onto an electronic document for making an ebook. I did not do the ebook formatting. Then I was responsible for writing the lore elements of the TTRPGs originally for Savage Worlds and my text was carried over for the Traveller edition. I also wrote up the NPC blocks for the Savage Worlds version of the TTRPG. Divine Blood is one of my self-published properties that currently consists of one novel, a Fate-based RPG with one supplement, and 12 short stories. The picture above was the supplement's cover art commissioned from renown comic artist Rod Espinosa.

Is this a safe space to admit something?

I don't really try to make my TTRPG characters hot, and actually I usually try to give them some kind of trait that isn't conventionally attractive. And I don't think (as a player) I've ever asked if an NPC is hot. I just really don't care.

Tavern Talk #3

What’s the best warning sign you’ve ever put in front of players that they completely ignored?

The bloodstained door.
The abandoned camp.
The NPC who says, “Don’t go down there.”

What did they ignore—and what happened next?

Litspace NPC Sweetheart! A war walker working under the employment of Osric Lector, Va'Dastra's rival.

#dnd #dndart #dndoc #ttrpg #ttrpgart #ttrpgoc #oc #ocart #warwalkers #monsterbittenart #OC:Sweetheart
A bust of OC Sweetheart (she/her), a fae creature called a war walker. Similar in appearance to a werewolf or anthropomorphic canine, she has thick brown and gray mottled fur and a deer-antlered wolf skull for a head. She has pink eyes, which are simply "eyeballs" in otherwise empty eye sockets. Her expression - as much as a skull can have an expression - is unimpressed and somewhat nasty.
