End of the Adventure – Alex Drummond

Is this an illustration of an aquatic adventure or an urban adventure?

Given where the PCs are heading, maybe it’s the start of a wilderness adventure.

(Memo to my players: This may constitute minor spoilers. Also, you’re all going to die.)

A couple of other random thoughts here: First, a lot of modern gaming is predicated on the philosophy that failure isn’t fun. I, on the other hand, think that failure can be entertaining. And I think it also sets up greater opportunities for entertainment down the road.

Second, what I love about this illustration is that it dares to dream big. And I hope it will dare you to dream big, too. I think orcs in a 10′ room are great; I think gritty fantasy is cool.

But every so often you’ve got to release the kraken, right?
