I discussed whether or not this was acceptable content with the moderators and creators of this community before I started, and they're supportive of artists posting their RPG comics here, it's a part of the community. The community description even reflects this.

Refering to the comics from multiple creators here, not just me: These comic series do spawn actual memes often enough to be a good source of new funnies, but because they're ongoing stories, it helps for people to be able to follow along.

If you don't like this, you have a simple remedy available: You can just block me and never see another one again. You don't have to be mean to random people on the internet.

I double post to the Fediverse! (you can see the mastodon address watermarked on the comics, and my non-ttrpg comics go there too.)

While Fediverse platforms are a relatively small part of my audience, I'm always skeptical that other platforms can last through poor moderation policies, whereas federated platforms will exist so long as people are enthusiastic to keep them running...

Bonus Konsi drank a little bit too much this time.

 

Invoke Duplicity is quite good for catching your tail.

This comic follows on from the Previous comic](https://ttrpg.network/post/24108631) which will almost certainly provide context.

You can follow this comic series from the start Here. Make sure to start at the bottom (oldest comic) and work upwards.


I know people always get worried when I'm away for a while. Well, I got married, so that's why updates have been slow. I'm on Honeymoon later this month, and then I'm going to do an art drawing challenge through November (keep an eye on my socials for those I suppose.) - and then it's Holiday Season, so I'll be a bit sporadic for a couple of months... but I'll probably squeeze out a conclusion to this plotline before the year ends (I hope!)

A fun thing people often forget about Mage Armor is that you can cast it on other people, which is occasionally even helpful!

While Mystery doesn't have counterspell, Faelys does, and we own a hat of disguise.

You'd probably be able to do that and win the match, but, well, there's a few problems...

First of all, Addis is a Tymoran priestess with level 5 spells, so she'd be pretty difficult to take down quickly unless you were serious adventurers. Chances of pulling it off without a hitch are non-zero. We don't know for sure what is and is not on Addis' spell list, but if we imagine it's similar to Konsi's list well... Konsi always has Dimension Door prepared, grabbing her would be very difficult.

Secondly, this is Konsi's boss, you might win the match by default, but the repercussions within the temple would be much worse.

Third, Konsi would never approve of kidnapping anyone who wasn't evil... She's too much of a good bean.


Probably the biggest problem is that the entire point of this match is to have Konsi play a high-stakes poker match under scrutiny, to prove that she legitimately has skill at the game, and doesn't cheat. They're staging this whole thing to head off accusations of foul play... Kidnapping your opponent and winning by default doesn't exactly solve the problem!

OotS has SO much text per strip, I could really do a lot with that kind of real estate.

[–] ahdok@ttrpg.network 0 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Exposition's really difficult in comic format. People don't really want to read a full page of text when they're reading comics, so you got to find some ways to at least give it some visual flair...

Bonus Konsi, as usual

Since some people's clients can't properly display tall images, here's the comic split in two for readability.

If that is ALSO not helpful to you, I recommend looking at it on my site

“Alcohol is a mild poison” has been a house rule within my extended roleplaying circles for a long time. It fits well into almost any setting or metaphysics, and allows you to do interesting things with intoxication.

I didn't hear no initiative roll!

I'll be back posting comics soon, I promise, but this older one is topical enough to post.

Just enthralled. Completely spellbound. Beguiled, charmed, under your spell.

Throughout October, I'll be drawing a piece of Konsi art every day as a Drawtober challenge. Here's the prompts I'll be using.

You can find the art on Mastodon, Tumblr, Bsky, or Twitter. First two are best.


This is the joke idea that spawned this mini-comic. "what big eyes, what big teeth, what big ears"... That's just a goblin.

If you followed this story over the last month here, thank you so much for reading! I'm afraid I don't have any more Konsi comics drawn at this point, but there will be another one once every 2 weeks or so on my comic. You can follow at any of the following:

Website
Mastodon
Tumblr
Bluesky
Twitter

In addition to that, I'll still be posting Konsi art every day at these sites (for my website, I'll do a compilation image at the end)

I'll also post a short halloween story here in the next few days :)

Please be advised that if you use the connect app, it doesn't always correctly parse links to lemmy posts. If they're not working for you, you can follow the whole plotline on my site. (These comics are in reverse chronological order, so start at the end and work backwards.)


It's not really a "house" - It's Kolat Towers. Kolat Towers is a pair of wizard towers surrounded by a small compound. There's a lot of spare rooms.

 

This was an extremely popular post on the DnDMemes reddit, so it got a lot of comments: Here are some answers to the most common ones:


Q: "Why didn't you include (name of other ray ability)

A: When i decided to draw these I'm like "but DnD has like 30 ray spells" - if you go to 3e and go through all the optional and additional splatbooks, there's a lot.

The joke only needs a few rays - so I decided to search 5e for all player available ray spells, and draw those. (there are rays that monsters get which are in official 5e sources, such as the telekinetic ray of the gazer)


Q: Can I use these in my game?

A: Yes. (As with all my art, you can use and remix it however you want so long as you don't sell it.)


Q: These would make good VTT tokens, can you make then VTT tokens?

A: If you need vtt tokens, then I've made them into 400x400 transparent PNG files that you can save and use however you like.

Enfeeblement | Frost | Scorching | Sickness

I hosted those images on twitter, because I was worried about traffic volume for my server. These are transparent PNG images, so while twitter slaps a white box around them, if you save them directly they should have good transparency to use in your vtt games.


Q: "I want this on a T-Shirt"

A: Okay: T-shirt
