Flesh of Ripped Souls: Art (PNGs)

Greetings All!

Dedicated to one of the first magic items I ever encountered, in the glory days of Diablo 1. This is a testament to its unique set of rags.

This item came in two rarities, but Very Rare without attunement seemed to win out so that has this final upload. If you want to see the rare version, comment and I'll add it to this post.

If you have any suggestions or thoughts, or see any language that needs editing let me know!

Elven Blood Blade: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

This is the 3rd submitted item this week, and this the second HP regenerating sword that was voted in! Luckily it took another path as a unique take, and I think we nailed it in balancing.

Submitted by a regular on these items Kronos001, the name is unchanged. The Elven Blood Blade, with a regain to HP not limited to Crits or Killing. That was a challenge, and I put it up to the Discord Smiter’s to take a crack at it. What we came up with, is what...

First Success: Art (PNGs)

Greetings All!

2nd submitted item this week, and one of the rare firearms that I have done. The last commission was also a three barrel so I tried to keep the style separate from both that and the CR pistols.

Submitted by ArmegeddonCraft, this is a scaled back version of a character pistol. Originally with 3 charges per barrel that recharged on the hour, this is a simplified take. Removing the need for charges and typing the main constraint to reloading, which dep...

Demon's Tooth: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

1st of the submitted items for this week!

Originally this was submitted by ‘Kamehameyaa’ this concept had some very rich flavoring, as a Very Rare item. It took a bit of chiseling but with simplifying the curse and working the features back from an artifact, we now have a pretty unique and rather strong sword!

It does unleash some nova potential, but mostly in late stage game play with a limited resource versus say a consistent effect or a...

Circlet of Elvenkind: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

This one is a textbook adaption of the ‘Belt of Dwarvenkind’ to fit the Elven stat block, with some Elve’s are just hair models tossed in for good measure. Since this is taken straight from SRD stats and race blocks, it is a rather simple change. I recommend checking it out and see what you can come up with, especially for the newer races that fall out of bounds the SRD.

I hope you enjoy it. If it's well received I might do the ‘Bracers of G...

Silver Petals: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

Another shield! Gosh, I had been putting it off. If I could, I would just make shields for an entire month to get all of the ideas out of my head.

I adore shields, this while it might look like it's from the Silverhawks cartoon of my youth, is inspired by a flower brooch. I really enjoyed the idea of it as a layered shield, capable of reflecting emotions and images, building it up from there.

Remnant of the Wall: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

I turned a brick into a magical item, and not for face smashing… well I guess it could be.

As a fan of Wall of Stone, I don’t think it gets nearly enough play due its higher level and late stage introduction. It has a lot of potential, so halving it in size while tying it to an item seemed like a ‘solid’ way to get it into player hands.

I truly do love the idea of old relics taking on properties without aid of enchantment and generally...

Spell Slinger's Wand Holster: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

Welp. You know how I like trying out new mechanics.

This one is a special case as it affects a wide array of established items. It is unattuned due to offering its boon through Wands alone, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I would love to hear some opinions on this idea. I’m not terribly sure this will be the last of the Spell Slinger gear, but I definitely enjoyed the expansion.

I added in the debated feature as well! I hope you like it! With th...

Armor of the Blighted Legion: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

I really like big armor. Purposefully marked plate for - Breastplate, Half Plate, & Full Plate.

I wanted something that didn’t match the armor of the dead from DA, while still carrying over the look of the previous helm. This was the result, falling onto one shoulder pauldron and letting it be the core breastplate.

For Rare, this is pretty powerful, but considering the resource cost I think it is relatively balanced with attunement since...

Inquisitor's Visage: One-Side.

Greetings All!

I am back! This one had a few inspirations, but I think the core imagery came from wanting to hide away from daylight while recovering from being sun crispy.

I really enjoy a good creepy mask that’s meant to, well not be creepy. This is a play on that, originally this was to be an Uncommon with only the Insight perks but I decided to take it a step farther. I enjoy the idea of an emissary that travels out of sight and is hard to keep tabs on.

Starmetal Blaster by Griffon's Saddlebag

Greetings All!

In the week off last week (Traveling with some time away) I had some creators that I consider friends to fill in.

Most, if not all don’t really need an introduction but I will do so anyway. These are all people that I’ve spent time with, traded art tips with, gotten advice from, and even done drawing video calls. Pretty closely resembling co-workers during the world shutdown so I would very much like to share them with you.

Spiked Cestus: One-Sided.

I really wanted some Unarmed opens for damage types, much like how the Arrow Trio offered some variation for ranged. These are also something new that was included in the Printed Decks!

As noted, these fist weapons are all similar to work in Mundane effects. These introduce

Thoughts welcome, this is a new weapon type. By all means, try and break it. It helps immensely!

Cestus Slab: One-Sided.

As noted, these fist weapons are all similar to work in Mundane effects. The Slab, already being a blunt item, needed a little push and I’m always a fan of structure damage for the bludgeoning crowd.

Novice Spellswords Blade: One-Sided.

Greetings All!

This was a fun one, and a difficult one.

Balanced around the ‘Wand of Magic Missile’ of the same level and attunement, it drops 3 charges and becomes a weapon and spell focus. This seemed to be the best way to get around the growth potential of being able to whack someone with the item easier than a wand.

Originally , I wanted to add a universal +1 Force damage to its attacks, but I worried it might tip the balance. So instead, in a combin...
