No 42 #TroikaRPG inspired sketch (also "Pyre" for #MÖRKTOBER). The people of the Carmine Palisades need, but shun, the Charcoal Burners, blaming them for every crime and transgressions, but no one knows the deep forests better.

No 41 #TroikaRPG inspired sketch (also "Ear" for #MÖRKTOBER). When the remnants of a rebel legion of elves was massacred its lone survivor was this single War Elephant. Cursed to long life by the Elf King, they wander the slopes of the Carmine Palisades haunted by their experiences. Never Forget.
No 40 #TroikaRPG inspired phone sketch (also "Arrow" for #MÖRKTOBER ). Bandits are a risk throughout the Carmine Palisades but sometimes its much more ... personal.
No 39 #TroikaRPG inspired sketch ("Flag" from #MÖRKTOBER). A view of the Pilgrim Path, 1 of the established tracks through the Carmine Palisades. It follows sites of religious interest to the summit of 1 peak. Visit the Hirsute Monks, Sisters of Fungus, & shrines. Mingle with Saints & Sinners alike.
No 38 #TroikaRPG (& "Wail" from #MÖRKTOBER ) inspired sketch ... a Sídhe Wight, bound to the Elf Kings gravesite as a perpetual keener (one who cries for the dead) - the only thing worse than the Kings ego was his sense of humour.
No 37 #TroikaRPG ("Effigy" prompt for #MÖRKTOBER ) inspired sketch, from my wip. Stumbling into a hrove, PCs find a mesmeric effigy, surrounded by several skeletons, all arrayed as if regarding the statue. PCs are at risk of falling in love & might refuse to leave the Grove.
No. 36 #TroikaRPG ("Fog" prompt for #MÖRKTOBER ) inspired quickie. As the fog rolls down into the valleys of the Carmine Palisades, a Mountain Giant can be glimpsed clomping up-slope.
No. 35 #TroikaRPG (& "Cape" prompt fir #MÖRKTOBER ) inspired sketch on my phone. When the weather turns in the high mountain pases of the Carmine Palisades, all you can do is huddle up.
No. 34 #TroikaRPG (& "Marrow" prompt for #MÖRKTOBER ) shows a baby Green-skin being born as if eruption from an enormous, rip birthing marrow high on the forested slopes of the Carmine Palisades
No. 33 #TroikaRPG (& "Glyph" for #MÖRKTOBER ) shows a talented but treacherous magical apprentice (who may have caved his masters head in) attempting to cast a spell. He is all bells & whistles, while true mastery of the arts can be a subtler affair.
No. 32 #TroikaRPG the Disassembled Prince. After failing to dethrone the King of the Elves, Prince Lhoris has been cursed. His seperated living organs & limbs are strewn across an isolated glade in the Carmine Palisades where his head lolls conscious & utterly bored. Also #Mörktober prompt 2 "curse"
No. 31 #TroikaRPG sketch is a Goat Knight, who traverses the mountain passes performing knightly deeds, on the basis that every deed a knight performs is, by definition, knightly, without having to worry about inconvenient concepts like "good" or "bad". Also serves as a prompt from #Mörktober.
No. 30 #TroikaRPG phone sketches is a giant tusked boar and its green skinned keeper out tracking truffles. Is the Boar gigantic or is the green skin diminutive ... six of one & half-a-dozen of the other.
No. 29 #TroikaRPG inspired sketch is a Fugitive War-Criminal ... on the run in the Crimson Palisades after fleeing the carnage they've committed in one of the many balkanised mountain valley statelets.
No 28 #TroikaRPG sketch is a Knavish Carrion ... a psychic vulture that trys to trick mountain travellers into endangering their lives ... & sometimes "accidently" carries off outdoor sleepers. Of course, it lets them go once it realises they were sleeping & not dead. From a great height.
No. 27 #TroikaRPG thing is a Kite Bandit ... swooping down and terrorising the trade caravans making their way through the mountain passes.
No. 26 #TroikaRPG sketch is a Cragsman ... someone who loves to muck around in the mountains.
No. 25 #TroikaRPG inspired scribbling ... a trio of Saline Homonculi (or "Salt-Peters") who have infested the salt mine owned by the Marquess de Tocktick.
No. 24 #TroikaRPG inspired phone sketch inspired by my current project ... ZOLA, a cursed milkmaid, who is just still trying to do her job in spite of all the magical misery heaped upon her for rebuffing the advances of an asshole satyr.
No. 23 #TroikaRPG inspired scribbles is a Feral Polyphagiax ... hungry hungry Polyphagiax
