Hello! first off I love your art <3 I wanted to ask you about the homebrew campaign you're playing in, the sundered kingdom. what an interesting concept! did gildedruin mod the dnd classes/races to the victorian settings themselves or is there some kind of pre-existing framework they took inspiration or resources from to shape the world? thank you for satiating my curiosity, all the characters and npcs seem extremely cool and novel!
Hey, thanks so much for asking!! It’s such a cool campaign and I really love having an excuse to talk more about it, especially when it means I get to heap praise onto Jax as a dm!!
They have done a TON of the homebrew in the game themself, including the setting and pantheon, but also mechanics like our subclasses and special items. Valentin’s surgeon subclass, for instance, was something she created because I wanted to be able to heal without needing to rely on divine magic. Because of the regency setting, I wanted to fill the archetype of the enlightenment-era doctor, plus I was really obsessed with Pathologic while making him (and still am LOL) and wanted to incorporate the conflict of tradition vs progress into his character. I know Jax also pulled a lot of inspiration from Elden Ring, The Witcher, and Wheel of Time among other things to build the setting and story!!
