We Played D&D on a Boat! Adventures Ahoy! Part 1: Tomb of Grief YouTube video by No Short Rests!

We had the pleasure of hosting D&D in a boat with some of our ttrpg friends! Check it out here: youtu.be/dUohYTL_DmY?...

Two ghosts are seen in profile, facing each other. Their foreheads and noses touch as they caress each other's faces. The expression of the ghost on the left, wearing the crown, is torn by pain and regret, while that of the ghost on the right seems calmer, at peace.

Beyond death. Beyond damnation. Beyond oblivion🖤

I really loved working on this piece, and I hope it conveys all the intensity I wanted to communicate.

The Flayed Performer

A group of adventurers are exploring a cave, while from the waters all around them a huge multi-headed hydra is approaching.

The "One Room One Shots" kickstarter is live :) I just painted this one cover, but it's a cool #dnd supplement adventures by @noshortrests.bsky.social

Cheers! Excited that we’ve finally reached this point!

A cover I completed for the "Flayed Performer" module of @noshortrests.bsky.social 's dnd campaigns.

Wandering through the city streets your attention is caught by a jaunty tune just as dozens of rats skitter by and lead you to a ramshackle stage…This encounter sets up our titular character of the Flayed Performer, leading star in our 8th level adventure - available on our website now! #ttrpg #dnd

Thanks for bringing our mysterious monster of the deep and unsuspecting adventurers to life in such stunning detail!

A group of rpg adventurers is stranded on a round platform, looking at a mural and (mostly) unsuspecting of the approaching hydra in the depths.

I can finally share my cover for @noshortrests.bsky.social 's one shot adventure, "temple of the forgotten depths" !
#dnd #ttrpg

Diving down to an ancient temple dedicated to primordial gods to recover a powerful relic said to be able to control the ocean itself sounds easy enough, right? However, beings from the deepest parts of the ocean have taken up residence in the temple and will defend it against any trespassers...

To the Deep we all belong!

This beautiful art by Martin Mottet @martinuche.bsky.social depicting a group of adventurers is for our fifth level adventure, Temple of the Forgotten Depths. #ttrpg #dndoneshot #dndart

Our writer loves drawing on different world myths for inspiration- so much that in a recent creative meeting he almost couldn’t lift his bag due to all the reference books he wanted to share 😅

Ah thank you :)

We’d love to be included. We’re a new company that are starting out by aiming to launch a book of one room one shot D&D compatible adventures later this year, all writing is our own and all art done by talented humans. We recently just launched our new website if you want to find out all about us!

One of our adventures is set in an underwater temple where the temple and creatures are all slowly turning to blanched coral; it’s been great fun to write and work with some fab artists to bring creatures like our African mythology inspired Jengu to life. We’ve just started sharing some of the art!

It’s Mer-May so here’s a peek at our beautiful, yet tragic Jengu - inspired by African mythology - an integral character in our adventure Temple of the Forgotten Depths. Her lonely song fills the temple with a beautiful yet sorrowful melody, but will you heed its warning? #mermay #mermay2025 #ttrpg

We recently debuted our One Hour Encounters, the first one is now available for free for all subscribers to our newsletter! (Link in bio and on our website)

Regret on the Road is a prologue to our adventure, Tomb of Grief, this encounter is suitable for level 1 adventurers. #ttrpg #dndoneshot

The Red King cometh! Dragonmeet: Call to Adventure was the debut of our second play test, Tomb of Grief, an adventure for first level characters. This terrifying illustration of the Red King rising to face the foolish adventurers who have entered his tomb is by Timur Gabdrakhmanov
