    WotBS Order of the Aquiline Cross

    I'm hoping to compile some ideas about how to present this group within the game - I'll be running this story for a SECOND group now, and one wants to be a Paladin/Warlock with ties to the reformed church. Asking about the history of the organization, I'm at a bit of a loss for concrete info...

    WotBS EmeraldBeacon's Burning Sky (online game)

    The latest episode saw our adventuring party traveling deeper into Dassen through a light but steady rain. They elected to travel through the Thornwood, as their dwarven associate noted that staying within Lady Timor's land as long as possible would generally be less stressful. That theory was...

    WotBS National Flags

    So I'm trying to decide now, what other groups need to be depicted? I could create a formula for Ragesia's numerous armies, perhaps... a specialty flag for the Solei Palancis... maybe a Black Horse Mercenaries flag...

    WotBS National Flags

    I decided to try and start some flags for other notable groups in the story. The Order of the Aquiline Cross features a "red cross in a ring of feathers." I decided to replace the ring with arched wings, symbols of the Stormchaser, flanking the cross in the center. There's almost no way to...

    WotBS Printable World Maps?

    I took my sepia map, scaled it up to about 250%, then printed it tiled across six pages. After some trimming and gluing, then mounting the whole thing to a fabric backing for stability... I present to you the continent of... um... what's it called again? ;)

    WotBS National Flags

    After doing some research, I found five "rules" for making effective flags, that are generally accepted by most "vexillologists..." Keep it simple. The flag should be easily duplicated, and recognizable from far away. Meaningful symbolism. Color and shape choices should reflect the purpose of...

    WotBS National Flags

    I'd love to hear some insights, to make them even more viable as flags... and perhaps I could fill in some details about WotBS to make the imagery more relevant?

    WotBS National Flags

    Toying with some alternate schemes for Ostalin. I wanted to include the hippogriff, since those seem to play a large role in their military (and they are definitely a militarily-focused nation). Both feature a yellow-and-magenta striped color scheme (mainly because I wanted some purple...

    WotBS National Flags

    I see what you mean about the Seaquen and Shahalesti flags being similar, so I changed them up a little. I wasn't super happy with the very stylized, angled look of Shahalesti anyway, so I decided to go a bit more old-school. Their flag is more elegant now, featuring some subtle color gradients...

    WotBS Findle the Betrayer

    As I read the module, Findle is entirely self-serving, and even though Griiat once orchestrated his agonizing death, he's willing to do anything to get some semblance of freedom back (preferably with his life restored). To that end, if his plan to use the scroll of resurrection on himself...
