Stoneplague is a magically enhanced version of Boneplague that is actually resistant to magic. To cure it, you have to use a potion that actively weakens the magical nature of the illness first, then treat what remains with adapted Boneplague potions (or High Grade magic, if available).

I have watched this reveal roughly 8 million times. Human artists always and forever.

I've started this year's Spooktober 2026 on @worldanvil.com with an Undead worm, and I'm absolutely not sorry about it!

That would be the Silver Hand (bad) or Empress Nataliya va Geveria (good). The Silver Hand overthrew the Hitauden monarchy to establish a Stratocracy, while Empress Nataliya overthrew her brother to build a more peaceful existence between the monarchies of her empire for the benefit of the people.

My greatest fear is being unnecessary or having no use to the people I'm around. Many of my PCs share this trait to different degrees. The only one who didn't have this trait was Amyra. So a question for the TTRPG players: What traits of yours leak through into your PCs whether you intend it or not?

Here is King Under Sea of Hookland, as I finish a rendering of Stay Belows. Good morning.

Zero tolerance, not quiet acceptance

I put something in front of them that looks comfortably familiar, then have it do something nasty that they weren't expecting. Like cats that suddenly have mouths that open up over a metre wide, or whispers in the walls. Alternatively, I just roll a dice near my microphone and listen to them panic!

Stone. Gouache on paper.
4th one for #septempera.

There's a village near where I live where there's this tree that awkwardly hugs the last remnants of a stone wall.
I've been wanting to paint it for a while. And I took the chance to put in a tiny homage to a favorite of mine, Rien Poortvliet.

Painting of a twisting tree hugging some piled stones. A robin stands on top, little gnomes can be spied peeking through holes in the trunk.

I've decided to stop actively looking for TTRPG AP/ recording opportunities for now. The whole process thus far has been massively demoralising and I'm getting tired. Still open for collabs and skillshares though, and am still on the lookout for new Solo games to play/ test.

Good morning.

My husband and I will be celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary in 5 days. We had planned to go back to Denmark where we had our honeymoon, but that's not happening. Instead, we are treating ourselves to a new wardrobe. The damn thing costs almost as much as the flights to Copenhagen back then!
