These wings were designed as part of an exercise on exploring different methods of light and fall protection. I had a good deal of weapons and weather items, but not many that grant flight. Unlike ...

This weapon is the second weapon introduced with the exotic tag. Given the theme, I felt it was appropriate! The warfan is a martial finesse weapon with a d4 damage die, which is ~1 damage lower th...

This weapon includes some of my "must-have" design ideas for life aboard a flying city. Skybound hunters need some way to catch prey that would otherwise fall from the sky - hence the slew of retur...

This cape originally started with the intention of creating items for the lesser-used weapons: nets, lances, etc. I knew that Cirro's resource economy, given they rarely land, would require aerial ...

An uncommon/minor item designed to flesh out the fiberpunk aspect of Cirro. I think weight reduction is a pretty fun concept that deserves some explorations. I wonder what you can do with this now ...

First foray into the fiberpunk/fibromancy aspect of Cirro, the sky City of Vapour. To reduce weight, Cirro uses fabric for much of its building material as well as its gear. These were a pain...

This weapon's concept was probably one of the oldest I had come up with - maybe 2+ years ago. The idea of spinning momentum aligns well with potential extra attacks. This sword is most useful to ma...

Like the polymajigs, these oozes also reflect the balanced nature of the regular polyhedron. And as a wonderful side effect, they also explain the bizarre cubic nature of the gelatinous cube. Acros...

The polymajigs are a race named after the "thingamajig" term. I was inspired by the lawful regular polyhedrons of the dice and wanted to design constructs that would similarly reflect the extreme b...

Unlike the dracon, this hexapod is primarily a scouting-based cogwork object, designed to share its senses with you. It basically functions like a short-term semi-familiar. The best part is because...

Unlike dracon, this aviad is designed to be more of a scout or a semi-familiar, as it can help you deliver spells. I feel like it's been too long since I drew metal. I'm losing some of the high con...

Coglings are super cute to play around with. I think it helped to assign it similar statistics of an existing 5e creature, which allowed them to be a sort-of-familiar without rehashing the full spe...
