I actually have an original setting im really proud of. Seashells, or, well, at first it was called WaterWorld but there is already a movie called like that sooo :p
Im running a dnd campaign based of this setting and i would like to show some of the stuff i did for this.
Seashells setting takes entirely underwater. Its kinda not so popular theme for settings but i really love everything about the ocean, fishes and other stuff and really wanted to show it when basing my imaginative world around it.
My main inspirations were Another Crab’s Treasure and Splatoon, i really saw this setting having the same… well… cute, stylized family friendly look? But also having some kinda dark and horrifying things, after all, ocean is really scary in some cases. Our dnd party consists of:
Mantis Shrimp Monk, lorewise he used sun praying monk battle techniques that allowed him to create cavitation bubbles.
Alligator Snapping Turtle Barbarian, he is ex royal guard of the Queen in the Midnight Ocean that he suspects is being mind controlled by someone in royal court.
Blind Lobster Warlock, veteran of the crab war that happened long time ago. He seems a bit insane, talking to his claw prosthetic from time to time, but he might know something no one else knows.
Thresher Shark Rogue, youngest of the team, basically a child, except he is quite capable on his own and tries for a long to time quit his past years of thievery.
Moon Jellyfish Wizard, daughter in a rich family from a big coral city, she was always earning for arcane knowledge, to the point of running away from her home.
And finally, Octopus Sorcerer - she ate magic stone when she was a kid and now she has magic abilities.

Actually, the story in my dnd starts pretty normal, characters forced to become a party, as they receive a scroll that contains information that needs to be taken to the capital of Sunset-Shore since if they fail, terrible things may happen to the peaceful life in the shallows. Few last days, strange sea critters emerged from the dark depths. They were cold, their eyes blank, strange turquoise smoke was emanating from them. Some fishfolk say, something happened to the queen of the Midnight Ocean, but so far party has little to no clues.

In their travel to the capital, they go through several dangerous locations, eventually encountering someone strange. So called Comander Tenta, he calimed to be the son of the Queen, except no one heard about him ever. After some small talk, its seemed the pretender was the one who controlled strange fishfolk. After the battle, Tenta escaped and they finally reached Sunset-Shore. And this is the point where we stopped for now in our DnD. Next i wanted to post some of the sprites of the enemies and NPCs.
