While we thunder down the road towards the campaign, we would like to introduce another one of our amazing artists. They are not new to the Sefirot circus but have already contributed to our “Forever Hold Your Peace” zine. Without further delay, meet the amazing Newt!

Czech artist, roleplayer and Slavic folklore enthusiast Charlie 'Newt' Borovský has been freelancing in the world of TTRPGs for almost a decade now, growing to be an all-rounder in fantasy illustration. 

Their past clients include Critical Role, MCDM, Avantris, Hit Point Press, Crow&Crown and now, of course, the Sefirot team.

You can find them on Bluesky: @eyeofthenewt 

Or admire their portfolio: eyeofthenewt.com 

And we are happy to finally reveal...

It was a marvelous process to get together and talk about the world that Dioscoria is set in and then pair it with Newt to make this beautiful art piece. Here's some insight from Newt:

For the border, we actually expanded on my designs that didn't end up being used for the crowdfunding page tables, combining all three of them here.  There was some discussion about having the spheres which show the different realms at first, but we ended up including them.  I also suggested having a sort of symbol for each of the secret islands, since we wanted to spotlight them despite their small size on the map itself. My main two inspirations were a mix of other maps from the 1500s and the sailing themes of Haven's Heir. The sea creatures were probably my favourite to draw, closely followed by the ladies in the border, but I always revel in detailed lineart, so the whole piece was a pleasure to do!

Don’t forget that we have a megaton of entertainment read for you via our socials and on Discord. Feel free to let us know your thoughts about the world map in the comments!

Stay safe and stay connected, 

The Warden of Shadows
