Artfight: Consider Them Smote
We love centaurs in this house of mine, and Xaiphyra has such a cool design I had to try drawing her.
Character belongs to @stephanoodle

[Image ID:
a digital artwork of Erik Dumeer, a DND oc, cut off slightly under the waist. He is a skinny drow with dark grey skin, curly white hair with an undercut, and scruffy facial hair. He wears red eyeliner, a simple white shirt with red thread down the sleeves, a floral patterned cloth tied around his waist, black pants, several rings, and multiple earrings, two of which resemble a moon and a sun. Erik has his eyes closed and holds his hands up to his chest with a sorrowful expression. From his chest sprouts an arrangement of flowers, leaves, branches and berries, which form a gradual rainbow outwards and cast a faint glow. The background is a dark red, with a smaller grey square with rainbow decals framing Erik’s upper body.

With TSS coming up I thought it was the perfect excuse to make myself a new character so here’s Alvah! She’s a reborn tiefling grave cleric who strives to work against the natural order, trying to achieve eternity for all 👁️⚰️🤍
It’s been a while since I made myself a character and I've had my eye on grave cleric for some time now, plus don’t have many tieflings so this was the perfect opportunity to finally make a character that was both!

And then there's Halsin. Halsin is the platonic ideal of a Druid.

feeling like frodo-it-is-done.gif
I have been working on this ever since December, but I can finally say it is, indeed, done. This is gonna be a cover for the zine I've been working on with @kiwiitin and which (unless things go horribly wrong) will have its debut in TreKuplii. It will be an original dnd character zine focusing on these two good lads and their stories.

Can you go over what is going on with Paladins and Clerics in DND, not from a mechanical or in universe perspective, but from what different sources/genres/tropes they are drawing on? They always seemed to have too much overlap in the basic concept to me to make sense as separate things in the dnd classes/stock character line up.
Clerics originated way back in the pre-OD&D days, when the game that would become Dungeons & Dragons was still a fantasy roleplaying add-on intended to be paired with your favourite historical wargame. One of the players in Dave Arneson's original Blackmoor campaign had an army whose commander/player character was a vampire named Sir Fang, who proved to be sufficiently overpowered that a mechanical "hard counter" was desired.
This ended up taking the form of a vampire-hunting priest character heavily inspired by Peter Cushing's turn as Abraham Van Helsing in the 1958 Christopher Lee adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula; that vampire-hunting priest in turn developed into what would become one of original flavour D&D's three core classes (the other two being the fighter and the wizard – the thief/rogue came later).
The paladin, meanwhile, was originally a direct, 1:1 lift of Holger Carlsen, the protagonist of Poul Anderson's 1961 fantasy novel Three Hearts and Three Lions, and was introduced as a subclass of the fighter – rather than a class of its own – in the 1975 Greyhawk supplement. Over the game's editions it's wandered from being a fighter subclass, to being a high-level "advanced class" to which qualifying characters can switch at 10th level, back to being a fighter subclass, and finally to a core class, where it's generally remained.
So, in short, the cleric was originally a purpose-built hard counter to vampire PCs loosely patterned after Peter Cushing's Abraham Van Helsing, while the paladin was originally for people who just really wanted to be one specific Poul Anderson character.
(I'm sorry if that's not a terribly satisfying answer, but you need to understand that practically everything in old-school D&D is a 1960s or 1970s pop culture reference – it just doesn't read that way to modern audiences because nobody gets the memes anymore.)

Cleric: You need to eat healthier. Fighter: No. Cleric: The last person who didn't eat healthier after I told them to died. Fighter: Oh my gods. Cleric: In a fire storm. Fighter: That sounds unrelated. Cleric: I cast the fire storm. Do not disobey me.
