Prompt
Draft a Gear, Weapons, Baubles, and Bad Ideas guide for EldritchDark. Link existing equipment, weapons, properties, and baubles references. Avoid prices, damage values, property tables, and other brittle details.
Gear is not a shopping list. It is a confession. What you carry tells the table what sort of trouble you expect and what sort of trouble already knows your name.

issue-407-gear-section-opener: Accepted provisional production-quality section opener art for Gear while preserving future human replacement history.
Provider

Model
gpt-image-2
Prompt
Create one production-quality provisional section-opener illustration for the EldritchDark manual section "Gear": a 1920s pawnshop and police evidence room after hours, rain-streaked glass, shelves, tagged tools, coats, lanterns, lockpicks, knives, revolver silhouette, rope, boots, and field kit. A detective and pawnbroker weigh ordinary tools for a dangerous night; on second viewing the reflections and object shadows suggest some gear has been used against older things. Use Weird Age pulp noir, cheap-paper color, tobacco browns, ink black, sickly yellow lamp, muted teal shadows, and one restrained blood-red tag accent. Avoid readable text, labels, explicit mechanics, legible prices, and schematic placeholder art.

issue-387-weapons-spot-art: Reused provisional weapon spot art from the issue 387 placeholder-art pipeline for equipment section layout review; not final canon art.

Prompt
Create visibly provisional gear and weapon spot art for EldritchDark. Treat weapons as an evidence sketch or catalog clipping with black ink, restrained red accents, aged paper, and clear silhouettes. Do not imply new mechanics, copy existing game art, copy Bellwater, or reference a living artist style.
Placeholder art is visibly labeled in the SVG., Replace with reviewed human-created gear or weapon spot art.
issue-387-art-direction-repair-weapons-spot-art: Replaced the schematic weapon proof with denser black-ink, noir evidence art that better follows the issue 387 art direction.

Revise the provisional weapon spot SVG so it reads as black-ink interior art with engraved hatching, noir evidence labels, pulp catalog composition, clear silhouettes, and restrained spot color.

, Accepted because the weapons read as tactile evidence and gear-section proof without adding prices, labels, or mechanics.
, Future human-created weapon art should supersede this event instead of deleting the AI curation history.

Prompt
Create a Weird Age pulp-noir gear and kit vignette rooted in 1920s expedition mythology: dawn at a muddy airfield, open-cockpit plane, touring car, crates, rope, canvas duffels, lantern, wrapped revolver, maps, and field instruments. Show one explorer packing a field kit while one pilot watches. The explorer has only one oddity, deep-set reflective eyes; the pilot has only one oddity, a perching posture.
