Why Use This Creature
Not every threat in your world carries a sword.
Some watch.
Some listen.
Some run messages you were never meant to intercept.
Artimus Appleton represents a different kind of encounter pressure—information, movement, and awareness. He rewards players who pay attention and punishes those who assume the street isn’t watching back.
Whether used as an ally, informant, complication, or obstacle, Artimus brings your city to life.
Part of Trollskull Manor, Pack IV
This product is part of the Trollskull Manor series, expanding the living ecosystem of Trollskull Alley.
The Appleton family—and the North Ward Irregulars—turn the alley into more than a setting.
They make it a network.
Each member of the family can stand alone or function together as a layered, reactive urban system.
