I'm learning how to play D&D! I've wanted to do so for a while but never had a group interested IRL, then my internet friends were like "no we can't play D&D in World of Warcraft that's way too nerdy for me" and now some of my WoW raidmates have finally converted! The building in The Park in Stormwind that I wanted to play in doesn't exist anymore (nor does the park as a whole, lol) but Roll20 DOES, so that'll have to do. And it's actually doing quite well so far—we've had three sessions and two bouts of combat and nobody's died yet!
Through a lack of coordination on our parts, we've bumbled into having 4/5 of the team have names that start with A (5/6 if you count our NPC guide/questgiver). The group has been calling our party "The A Team" and hinting strongly that my character (who is absolutely TERRIBLE with remembering names correctly) should find a way to give our paladin an A-based nickname. I'm still thinking about how to do that one.
Speaking of our paladin, Balasar is a dragonborn and our warlock's patron is an alicorn/unicorn and those are both pretty much furries so I'm using that as an excuse to stretch my "no human art uploads until there's more substantial furry stuff in your gallery" rule. Hopefully he gives me more opportunities to draw him in the future, but his player has never RPed in any context before and is very awkward/shy about it so it might take some doing.
Anyway, I drew both our character profile portraits for our character sheets (and chat avatars) and the little tokens that Roll20 uses on its virtual tabletop instead of minis. The top down angle for the tokens was tough but I'm relatively pleased with how they came out; next time I make tokens I may go harder on the outline around them so they stand out on busy backgrounds a bit better, but Balasar's was already pushing up against the edges of the 280x280 pixel square the site suggested tokens be created at so it couldn't really go thicker, lol.
(Jim's portrait is his World of Warcraft warlock, as I have no idea what he looks like IRL and he doesn't have a D&D character for me to draw, in this campaign anyway lol)
