Lashunta Inspirational Pic of the Week
Artist Frank Frazetta

So this is a rough work version of _Conan the Avenger_, the final version of which I am familiar with. Yet I find this one intriguing because it leaves so much more to the imagination!

Instead of a black-robed wizard, we have an amorphous, eldritch blob. Perhaps a demon stolen in from the Outer Dark?

Is the woman lying on a sacrificial altar, or on a queenly dais? Is she even fettered (she is in the final version)?

In a lashunta setting, what curse has smitten this queen within her thronehall? What elder horror has appeared, has let in the mobats and the river eels? Who is the korasha warrior leaping to her aid?

There's a tale here, and it doesnt need to be Howard's, DeCamp's, or Nyberg's.

Lashunta Inspirational Pic of the Week
Artist: Jason Engle

Given lashunta's talent for psychic magic, what is going on here? They tend to focus on symbiosis, and not on summoning spirits from beyond.

Could this be someone dabbling in ~tiqezhi~ - anathama? There are forces from the Outer Darkness, as personified by Zaulavyaedu - The Dark Adder Beyond - whose perilous gifts bring corruption.

Lashunta Architectural Inspiration
Artist: Theo Pins (ArtbyTheo)

This could be neighborhood in a lashunta city - Qabarat? Mahyat? Son? I like the combination of waterways with covered walkways against the omnipresent rain.

Castrovel Woodsy Wednesday!

A cave amid a jungle. What could the explorer hope to find here? What lurks within?

Lashunta Inspirational Memory - 4 years ago
Simon Fetscher

I came across this scene yesterday, and it begged to tell a story. On Castrovel, this could eaily be a settlement along the Yaro River's lower half, possibly Hanazhyana, Son's traditional foe, or further southward in the great delta marshes leading to Qabarat. The time of year could be Floodtide (spring). The colorful golden carp-like fish are a very nice touch, since this kind of fish would do well in this environment.

I love that the houses are on stilts. The question I have is that some of the buildings are on taller stilts than others. What would be the reason? I don't know, but am intrigued with finding an answer.

Lashunta Inspiratonal Memory
The Art of Régis Moulun

I have been watching this artist for a while, and really like what he is doing. If this were a Korasha on Castrovel, what is he doing, and why is he associating with snakes? A shaman? A member of a snake-cult?

Lashunta Inspirational Memory
Some stills from a photoshoot for the Cambodian music video for the song "Top Of The Lady’ ( វីរនារី )". It provides some interesting possibilities for Damaya armor.

Castrovel Inspirational Memory

Why do I feel like that protruding stamen functions like an alien xenomorph's inner jaw??
