D&D General AI Art for D&D: Experiments

[LuisCarlos17f]

I asked PC species inspired in iseaki and xuanhuan fiction.

1. Zhuanling (转灵者) – The Reincarnated of the Veil
Inspiration: Classic isekai + xuanhuan reincarnation
Humanoids whose souls do not originally belong to this world.
Concept
They may come from other worlds, eras, or planes.
They retain fragments of memories, habits, or "impossible" talents.
Society views them as chosen… or threats.
Playable Traits
A flexible trait that they can reassign upon leveling up (symbolizing adaptability).
Advantage on a roll for long rest (otherworldly intuition).
Social disadvantage in traditional cultures.

2. Lingmai (灵脉族) – Meridian Blood
Inspiration: Internal cultivation, spiritual meridians
A humanoid species whose spiritual anatomy is visible and active
.Concept
Their spiritual veins glow when they channel power
.From a young age, they train in breathing, posture, and meditation.
Magic is a physical discipline, not just an intellectual one.
Playable Traits
They can store energy to empower spells or attacks.
Bonuses to Constitution and Wisdom.
Vulnerable to effects that block internal energy.

3. True Yaoren (真妖人) – Ascended Spirits
Inspiration: xuanhuan (yao, cultivator demons)
They are not anthropomorphic animals, but primordial spirits that have taken humanoid form.
Concept
Originally, they were concepts: mountain, wind, dream, steel, echo…
Their human form is a stage of ascension.
Intense emotions can bring out non-human traits.
Playable Traits
A limited spiritual manifestation (aura, ethereal limb, supernatural trait).
They oscillate between humanity and transcendence.
Difficulty understanding human social norms.

4. Tianguan (天冠者) – The Marked by Heaven

Born with a cosmic mark indicating that heaven is watching them.
Concept
They are neither gods nor demigods.
Heaven “invests” in them, expecting results.
Failure has visible consequences.
Gameplay Traits
A powerful ability that evolves with level.
Narrative penalties when they disobey their destiny.
Advantage against extraplanar creatures

5. Xueren (血人) – Heirs of the Profound Lineage

Their power comes from ancient lineages, not divine races.

Each clan developed a unique spiritual mutation.
The lineage can awaken late… or violently.
Blood has memory.
Gameplay Traits
Choose a lineage (war, mind, shadow, vitality, etc.).
Abilities that scale with level or moral choices.
Risk of corruption or overload.

6. Jingzu (镜族) – The Mirror Village

Their culture revolves around duality.
Sometimes they see things that others cannot.

7. Elevated Fanren (凡人) – Mortals Who Refused to Die

The world acknowledges them… grudgingly.

I have tried to create an image of two forgotten PC species that are still in the development phase, the ardlings and the glitchlings. I imagine ardlings as anthropomorphic animals with angelic features but also others that distinguish them from other "furries" such as celestial wings instead of ears, areas of skin with feathers instead of fur, marks or spots on the skin in the form of sacred symbols, jewels on the front or small horns that are not like goat ones (or tielfling ones) . The glitchlings should have got a visual style so that they would not be easily confused with Warforged or Autognomes

Maybe the glitchlings would be cooler with hair or something like this in the head.

OK, it has been a really fool idea but it was totally worth it. They are so cute that Hasbro should sell the figures. I asked they were ha'ponies insteand classic centaurs. The ha'ponies are centaurkin but mixing halflings and ponies.

And this is if "Jem and the Holograms" were a musical band in D&D. (Oh my God! If this was an animated show in Netflix style Witchlight setting...)

Is Fluttershy hiding in the back?

 

[LuisCarlos17f]

Sorry, ChatGPT forgot to add Fluttershy. Do you want me to create a new one? My intention was to add the character Sunset Shimmer.

What if Jem and the Holograms were a D&D band of symphonic, epic or goth metal?

* When you try to explain Dark Sun is a postapocaliptic sword & sorcery world where some people are born with innate psychic powers...

This group consists of adult female gnomes. Their class are like a mixture of maho shojo and mecha-pilots, or construct-monster trainer. The characters are a clean and pure reimagination of three characters from a forgotten and no-child-friendly transformers subfranchise. (My intentions are pure, I imagine them for SFW fantasy action comedy adventures) I wanted the construct mounts were like the Protectors from the 80s forgotten franchise "Robotix".

This Sunday is our first D&D game since before Christmas. It's also an MCU style cross over with characters from my second campaign joining in. To give the players in both games a bit of a preview, I had ChatGPT do this mesh up of the session finale with some characters from both groups teaming up to save the world.

"A brother lost, a sister fled,
A future born from what was dead,
And though the world will never know
The name of those who turned the flow"

If Cobra (the archienemies of G.I.Joe) were an evil D&D cult. (OMG! They are so cool Hasbro should sell an oficial mash-up)

 

[LuisCarlos17f]

I asked Grok how would be a fantasy version of the title "G.I.Joe" and this suggested several names like Guild of Invencible Juggernaut or Guardians of Iron Juggernaut. I would rather "Guardians of Invincible Jotunn" where Jottun is the giants from Viking myths.

I tried to create an image of gnomes piloting mechas with a visual style like the cancelled 80s franchise "Robotix" but this is like Eberron with a touch of Dark Sun and Inhumanoids like guest stars.

And I have tried to create a group of gothic heroes for Ravenloft based in the members of Justice League Dark from DC.
