This illustration is part of a series of fully hand painted interior and exterior scenes based on my maps to help you set the scene for your players and add an extra level of immersion and atmosphere to your games.

Background

Atop a mountain overlooking the nearby town sits the imposing tower of the Wizard Dresden. Although generally cold and unwelcoming, Dresden is well liked by the locals as he has been known to help them out on occasion when other avenues have failed. If the party really needs assistance, he may be open to hearing them out.

Nearing the top of the steep climb, a signpost stands by a bench and brazier. The message reads 'Please do not disturb. I am very busy.' Once the party have disregarded this message they will be greeted at the door by Dresden's assistant, a young female gnome by the name of Folxi. She looks terrified, but is very pleased to see the guests, ushering them in before they have a chance to introduce themselves. The wizard himself is slumped in a nearby armchair, clearly focussing on something intently, and does not immediately notice the newcomers.
