Hey all, I'm Kryzen, and I'm new here. Just received my Kickstarter copy last week, and Arcadia Quest has quickly skyrocketed up to my #1 game spot. My group and I have been having a blast!
When I get into games, I tend to become enamored with them, and naturally, I try to design my own custom pieces for them. So, I figured this would be a good place to share my creations and hopefully get feedback to balance them =)
The heroes range in how much I tried to flex the game design. Some are far more subdued abilities, while others are clearly experiments in the game's rules and whatnot. I also (started with) trying to fill some "gaps" in the AQ lineup, be it pop-cultural references I think could be fun characters or potential classic character tropes that I would one day like to see included. Speaking of the characters, obviously I don't own any of this art. I got it all from google image search. If it's an actual character, their company owns the rights, I just think they'd be fun to see an allusion to in an AQ character.
Anyways, here's my heroes (too many to list all in pictures):

I'll keep updating this as I go.
I also have an idea for some homebrew expansions to try out, but I'll get to those later when I have the time to actually work on them.
Please leave feedback! I would love for these to be balanced enough to actually use. Thanks all!
*there's also a clarification to make; for some of them, i couldn't find pictures that even began to express what I had in mind. This is most obvious with Hector, who is supposed to be a Conquistador. Also Ed; I couldn't find a fun picture of a small Blackbeard. Lego Blackbeard came closest. Also Jethro; it was very hard to find a picture of a werewolf even close to accurate. He's supposed to be a werewolf, and that was the best i could do, haha. Ollin means "Movement" in Nahuatl (Aztec language), just to explain name.
