I get it girl, I also find myself telling people its real, and wishing that AI had to label its uses.
I like using these Human Made icons that a lot of ttrpg people have been putting on their work, they're free and hopefully encouraging to creators

In this comprehensive setting guide you'll be able to see, touch, taste, hear and smell your way through everything that modern-day scholars currently know of the enigmatic culture of the Picts, from the perspective of someone living in the late 7th Century.
planning a zine quest project? does it have words and sentences? is it a game, an adventure, or both? i'm available in 2026 for new editing projects, so hire me to make you sound good! feel free to get in touch here or elsewhere to chat about what i can do for your project.

I really adore Glatisant by @graftbound.bsky.social!
Its got a great narrative throughline and tone, I love what it does with card mrchanics. Its easy to learn and has enough crunch and novel storytelling for me to want to keep replaying it.
Its the solo/duo game that hooked me on the genre.

a photo of the enamel pins designed for Glatisant, a ttrpg. The pins depict a knight (left) and the questing beast (right) and are designed as busts with a right angle on the outer edge, with the two characters facing each other, though on separate pins. The edges that face each other mirror shapes so that the beasts head looks as though it fits the curve of the knight's helm if they were put together like puzzle pieces.
Another piece of the puzzle has arrived! The enamel pins designed by Asia Kazub are here! Thanks to hitting our 8k stretch goal the pins are hard enamel! the colors look really stellar and there's lots of beautiful details!
