Shut up and color

Zak over at Playing D&D with Porn Stars posited that game developers should grow adventures from illustrations or maps and see what comes of it instead of the traditional write the adventure and then illustrate it. Being a visual guy, I almost always work from a drawing or map first as inspiration for adventure. In fact, that is how I'm proceeding with my Basalt Keep Adventure.

In that vein, I thought it'd be fun to post a picture and see if anyone could come up with some adventure ideas. This is an older picture I did about five years ago and it was the seed for an adventure idea that I haven't gotten around to writing yet, but keep meaning too (but as usual, life keeps getting in the way). At any rate, I'd be interested in seeing what you folks can come up with adventure seed wise. Have fun!

  1. That there sphincter monster is kinda scary.

    But seriously as a visual guy I find inspiration in artwork often too.

  2. Heh, the sphincter is supposed to be scary. I find the best monsters make us feel uncomfortable and scared at the same time. Afterall they wouldn't be monsters otherwise.

  3. "Let's all poke this hole and see what comes out..." I like it a lot. Very uncomfortable. Makes me think of Star Wars 5 when they fly into the mouth of that worm thing on the asteroid, but with more wizards and les Han Solo.
