Hidden Island Civilization
ShareAtlantis… that’s the first thing I thought of when I saw this peace. An advanced civilization, Islands, etc. I love the idea of an entire civilization that exists, hidden away from the rest of the world, waiting to be discovered. … Continue reading
Home of the Gnomes
ShareI’ve been reading the Shannara series by Terry Brooks and what struck me when I started was that I really have not read any books that have gnomes in it that I can remember. Okay, I do remember some, but … Continue reading
Elven Academy

The Nightmare Academy
ShareI love this one (be sure to click it for the full version). This image inspires for me a number of ideas. The ships, jungle and women in a colorful dress… this screams New Orleans to me. Voodoo dolls, curses, … Continue reading
The Palace on a Cliff
ShareMake sure you click it for the full version to see the whole thing – it’s awesome! This piece could inspire an entire campaign setting for me. I am a sucker for airships, and though there are none in this … Continue reading
