Tools of the Wizarding Trade

Another brace of custom wands from McCormick Wands.  Simply beautiful work, and I can personally vouch for the quality of their artistry.  I've given a couple as gifts and every recipient has loved them.

Ravencrone

The gifted Alisa Tochylovska returns to our pages with another fae specimen.  This time it's a Ravencrone, a species that switches between human and avian form.  As always, the craftsmanship is impeccable, in particular the miniature woven belt.

Dataterm Digital Prop

An interesting change of pace today- an interactive digital prop.  Cirrec created an entire news and information website for his Cyberpunk Red tabletop game, and it's pretty awesome.

"A year ago now, I made a website for my Cyberpunk Red tabletop RPG game. Dataterm started as a "in-universe" website with which I could send my players the daily "screamsheet" (a constantly updated newspaper printed on cheap thermal paper that is ubiquitous in the Cyberpunk setting). We play in French, but I translated of few of them so that you could get an idea of these handouts I make, so that you guys can maybe get inspired. (French readers be warned: most of the homebrew content is in English only). Well, since then... I've been busy. Over the last year, I've added a bunch of new things that might be of interest to some of you guys. I've created and uploaded homebrew content, uploaded community GM Tools and created new features for my players."

Click through to read his original post, and then head over to the site itself.  It's an inspirational example of using technology to provide players with in-game information.  I'd love to see something similar for Call of Cthulhu or Traveller.

Call of Cthulhu Plaque

"Above these apparent hieroglyphics was a figure of evidently pictorial intent, though its impressionistic execution forbade a very clear idea of its nature. It seemed to be a sort of monster, or symbol representing a monster, of a form which only a diseased fancy could conceive. If I say that my somewhat extravagant imagination yielded simultaneous pictures of an octopus, a dragon, and a human caricature, I shall not be unfaithful to the spirit of the thing. A pulpy, tentacled head surmounted a grotesque and scaly body with rudimentary wings; but it was the general outline of the whole which made it most shockingly frightful. Behind the figure was a vague suggestion of a Cyclopean architectural background."

 - H.P. Lovecraft, The Call of Cthulhu

This recreation of the infamous bas-relief plaque from The Call of Cthulhu comes to us from Italian artist Giuseppe Cialone.

The Curse of Strahd

Timago created these prop letters for the players in his Curse of Strahd D&D campaign.  Using a 3D printer to create a custom wax stamp is a clever idea.

Sorcerer Troll

"Usually the magic of trolls is bound to the very essence of nature and is directed towards perfection of both visible and invisible worlds. But amongst the trolls that practice magic there is one rare exception – a Sorcerer troll, who chose the path that lies through darkness."

The gifted Alisa Tochylovska returns to our pages with this sorcerer troll.  Do yourself a favor and open up the full-sized image.  The level of detail is just amazing.
