Pyrefoot Mine
Hey everyone! Here's the latest item that came with the Baughur release, the Pyrefoot Mine.It's the first trap type crafteable item and I think I'm going to do more like it in the future, I figure you can get a sword from nearly every homebrew and official source book out there, so lets go wild with unique items for Sol'Kesh!
The Baughur is ready to wallow on the Tabletop
Hey everyone!Worldshaper tested the mini STL and it's good to go! Dweller membersyou can find your STL files in the dropbox link in this folder> https://www.patreon.com/posts/dweller-tier-105362422And Keeper membersI'll be launching the 3D token for VTTs shortly this week.Also I updated the pdfs and Pyrefoot Mine today, adding in a tag for one-use (since it explodes) and lowered its cost substantially. I was pricing it at the same rarity as a permanent item. Thank you Jenks for bringing that too much my attention! Thanks again to every...

The baughur rises from the swamps
Hey everyone!Adding in a few more mammals onto Sol'Kesh is never a bad thing, and my opinion isn't biased at all just because I am one.The baughur is a tough herd beast, wallowing in swampy mires in small herds. Evolved from a tapir ancestor, similar to the Tartakka - so they are distantly related! and while the tartakka grew to run on the plains, the baughur grew to a hippo-like existence. And while this beast is a little simple on the design front since it's quite similar to today's pigs and hippos. It's item is far from s...
June Preview - Wading in the Shallows
Hey everyone!2024 is moving quick and June is coming in like a stampede of baughur, who in a few days you'll see how this CR2 tapir-evolved aquatic herbivore just won't stay down. And it's craftable item is a first to the Sol'Kesh Harvestables, it's a trap! uhh literally.Then for the second release we have the Trawlauth scraping along the bottom of the sea, you'll notice this crustacean has a new name than in the earlier journals. It was called the trawlaups and I had one too many trollop jokes... while I enjoyed the lau...

Leaping into the Bestiary
Hey everyone!A new creature launches onto the bestiary today, and luckily this one has a jump ability (you must all suffer through my terrible jokes)This CR 1/2 creature is a tiny one (perfectly frog shaped) and while it's an easy kill, having it come in contact with your skin will cause some terrible afflictions from the Lunegrove Toxin it secretes from the pebble-like scales on it's skin. And while that's been simplified for the 5e stats and the craftable item. Jhamkul's Forgerecently collaborated with me on a much more expand...
Sol'Kesh Magic Card Tokens!
There's a new way to enjoy some of the Sol'Kesh beasts, this time with MTG tokens!I recently partnered up with TCGBling > https://tcgbling.com/collections/terry_marandawith the talented artist Clayscence > https://www.instagram.com/clayscence/.A few of these cards got sent over to me and it's really lovely to shuffle them around, the quality of the card stock is great and for anybody looking to get a handy little print of my creatures, whether to use them for Magic The Gathering, hand them to DnD players to say what is about to kill...
Gominatik Pouch - Made with Jhamkul's Forge
Hey everyone, Ilove me a good collaboration and today there's a new one to share with you all! The incredible creator over Jhamkul's Forge wanted to try his hand at rule-crafting for the Gomitoad's item and has created quite the psychedelic masterpiece.All Tier members can find the full PDF for the Gomitek pouch in the COLLABORATIONSdropbox folder.What I love about what he did here is how versatile the use of it is for weapons, and of course a d6 of random effects is always fun. I encourage everyone to go check out all the other ite...
Golia Paddles
Hey everyone!While not every weapon has a sharp bit to stab with, some are helpful! and while killing the Huge goliarch is quite the endeavor, getting some flippers to help your swim speed underwater, as well as a bit of a bonus ability, might be worth the hunt!
Goliarch STLs now available!
Hey all you fancy Dweller Tier members, the STLs for the Goliarch have been printed and Worldshaper made sure it comes out finnnne!Dweller members can find the STLs in the dropbox links from this post : https://www.patreon.com/posts/dweller-tier-103353736Thanks a lot for being here!-Terry

The esslinter and it's little home
Happy Friday and I hope everyone's had a good week and if not... may the weekend balance that out.I wanted to share the esslinter model Worldshaper shaped before we start May's next creatures and I really just gotta say how cool it is that he adds so much scenery work to the bases, this is more than just a fish!Talk to you all later!- Terry
Worlds Collide Collab: Gone Fishin' - Astral Fishing!
The last of the fish is caught in this world spanning collab with Rudok's Tavern's incredible Nebulous Stargazer and Karbon Stained MapsAstral Pillars map.This was such an incredible experience and it's all thanks to Fluffy Folio's idea to gather all of us for this world spanning Patreon collab. It's also bitter sweet since this is the last of the Gone Fishin' collab, but considering how great of a time we all had working together on these, I'm sure we'll do this again with a different theme in the future!Travele...
The Angler - A Worldshaper Bonus Collab
Hey everyone!Worldshaper, the 3D sculptor that has been knocking out months of Sol'Kesh creatures is happy to share with us for a bonus creature miniature of his own, one that is a realistic Angler fish but still creepy enough to fit any fantasy or sci fi tabletop adventure. Thanks again for the horrors Mother Nature.Traveler and Dweller Tier members will find the STL files under the Collaborations folder in your monthly dropbox links.Enjoy and have a great week,Terry & Kieth
Twin Grip Gloves
Hey everyone! This is the second item for April and one that helps players get a little boost in grapple checks...with an extra bit of slicing.As most of you can easily see, I've been focusing a lot on creature design, so these gloves kind of reminded me how much fun it is to draw some basic human anatomy and I ended up having a lot of fun with it.Well that's it for now, have a good week and I'll post some the Esslinter mini later this week, bye!-Terry
Wayward Journey - Beggars Moor
Happy Wayward Wednesday everyone!The second to last biome illustration is done! This one highlights the Wetlands and the great stretch of swamp that is the Beggars Moor. I've mentioned on discord a few times that environment illustrations are a bit out of my comfort zone but I am feeling better with each one, to the point that I'm thinking of redoing the Coral Strands one to get in more details. It's a good sign when I can look at past work and go...ewTraveler and Dweller members can find the high res image of this in the Wayward Sk...

The littlest floating crustacean
Hey everyone,No major news besides me just wanting to show off Worldshaper's great sculpt on the little Ruske dude. Hope you're all having a wonderful day!
Fennrot Spear
Hey everyone! Here's a bit of a showcase image of what you can build from slaying this month's Ruske and last year's November release, the Trikautrae.One thing I love about world building is the research that's needed to build it out. From researching spear types that can be thrown but still have a large spear-head compared to the haft, I discovered the Yklwa. A really unique weapon that was used by the Zulu tribes.I ended up having a lot of fun painting this one up so I hope you all like it too!-Terry
