I started making some filler assets (grass etc) and found some cool carts as well. Haven't uploaded them yet but I will once I have enough

I am extremely late to the conclave themed blog posting trend but here it is.
It's mostly a bunch of miscellaneous thoughts about how to be a bit less cliche about fantasy religions and also some specific things I've done, mostly with Cairn.

I had this idea for a Cairn lifepath generator where there are three stages of life and you roll 1d6 for your stats at each stage, and also get appropriate items.

I like that there's a word for when a plant carries its seed up out of the earth when it germinates (epigeous) vs when the seed stays in the ground (hypogeus). Literally, epi- (above) the ge- (earth) vs hypo- (below).
