As an exhibiting artist at Gen Con 2016, Brian realized just how many other nerdy people loved playing make believe like he does. That convention marked the turning point where he decided introduce people to his imaginary worlds.
I first imagined the concept of Revilo in 2009, just months before my son Wyatt was born. I envisioned a world that the two of us could build upon and escape to together. The name Revilo is taken from Wyatt’s middle name Oliver spelled backwards. As Wyatt has grown he’s added more and more of his ideas to our world. He has created the volcanic region known as the Fiery Pits, conceptualized the lizard-like Burnadazi creatures, sketched out a “fire turtle” which I then sculpted into the Chelonid, and added to the pantheon of gods. Collaborating on Revilo with Wyatt has been amazing, and I can’t wait to see what his little sister Ruby dreams up as she gets older!
In the past 30 years humans, elves, and dwarves have crashed onto the coast of Revilo, discovering a land the other side of the world had never seen. One human has built an army and hired the vile, marauding Greyskrulls to aid him on his conquests. Will the rest of Revilo be able to form an alliance before this army conquers them? Will the gods wake from hibernation to keep their people safe?
While the outlanders try to find their way in this new land, a revered sect of 18, known as the Keepers of Secrets, are slowly being hunted down by a new cult. Inside each of the Keepers of Secrets is a fragment of the evil god Ghyrma. The Keepers of Secrets fear that this new cult is collecting these pieces to try and resurrect the long-forsaken god.
