To celebrate the countdown to Gen Con and the launch of 

we’re revealing the art for Adtonitum, a high speed force of raw elemental energy, capable of shattering the sound barrier and soaring into the stratosphere.

“In the Dragonlord universe,” explains artist Ed Beard Jr., “The Dragonlord created Adtonitum using both organic and advanced cybergenetic metallic materials.” Designed to channel massive arcs of lightning into the skies above the Dragonlord’s lair, her kind is necessary to channel the vast amount of electrical energy used in the Dragonlord's birthing chamber as depicted, in the Cradle of Etherrum.

“She was the first of her kind,” shares Beard. “As an outlier due to her biological makeup, she and her kind were not immediately embraced… until the Dragonlord perfected both organic and metallic infusion.”

Unlike Beard’s gnarlier dragons like Ignis Rex

 Adtonitum is rendered with “tapered, slender, more feminine lines and structure,” Beard notes. I also wanted to present a color palette that was unique and rarely seen - showing the blood reds, metallic silver-blue cyan, and intense purple.” Her pose and presence pay subtle homage to “my son’s generation of the early 2010s - a cross between comics and fantasy art.”

Like all of Beard’s dragons, Adtonitum is crafted using traditional airbrush methods and brush techniques - pure, physical artistry.

“Made by hand,” Beard says, “is the same category of meaning that signals ‘craftsmanship’ and the production of a one-of-a-kind hand painted tangible original artwork… created the ‘hard way.’

We’re honored to have dedicated traditional artists like Ed Beard Jr. as part of 

 bringing bold vision and artistry to life in the Realm.
