I know we haven’t got much of Kattigan yet but he very much reminds of the archetype of a soldier who came home from Vietnam but his mind is still very much there. PTSD and an inability to reintegrate into society.

How most stories end when the revolution is won. They don’t linger on the work of building what comes next. How that hope and promise turns into jockeying for power and who decides the future to come.

I’m older and I’m thinking about how the promise of the hippie generation became the yuppies of the 80s and the boomers grasping to hold onto power now

My first Campaign 4 art, and as is tradition, I came up with my own takes on the characters going mostly from the in-game descriptions & vibes during the first episode as a fun character design challenge that I do each campaign

A very large illustration of all 13 of the main cast all with their reactions to Thjazi's execution. The designs are different from the canon ones, some more than others.

'The Execution of Thjazi Fang'
First image of the new campaign, guess it had to be the event that starts it all. Could have been so many other scenes but I'm so busy these days I kinda wanted an 'easy' one. :D
