A page from His Majesty the Worm provided the rules summarized in the post. The art depicts adventurers going up portrait-laden stairs.

HIS MAJESTY THE WORM has a new game+ option. If you complete your quest and retire your adventurer, you can convert their XP into mastered talents from any path. This lets you start a new adventurer as something of a cross-class character.

adore this, so neat

kind of has me dreaming of a whole book of fantasy "Where's Waldo"-style scenes. Only instead of there being a Waldo, everyone and everything is brimming with life and personality (just like this piece!)

An old commission I did in 2019 that should have been coloured or used bolder linework but is fun to zoom into to look at all the characters I drew.
