I've always liked art of orcs and goblins attacking a village, and for this reason, I came to the conclusion that we might need something like that for New Horizon. Of course without orcs and goblins. As some of you may know already, we have a few new humanoid races in the development. Two of them are known as Wildways and Moggdraeks. I won't talk about them in any detail here, since that would require a totally different blog-topic, but my idea is to have art made of these two creatures attacking ...

This piece was for the Fenix issue dealing with forgotten places and treasures, I chose to focus on the Crythal city. Sorry in advance that I don't have a pretty picture this time. New Horizon is a vast moon with endless stretches of untamed wilderness. Early on in the settlement of the moon, colonists discovered that the ...

The Crythal are kind of my pet race. Most of the New Horizon setting was fairly well established by the time I found my way back to the project, so I have carved out my own little niches here and there. The Crythal are one such niche. So far they have appeared in a few articles in Fenix magazine, but as most of you know I don't read swedish, and I doubt many of you here do. (Not a bad thing if you do though) People so far have been treated to glimpses and very little hard fact. ...
