Arborforge Studios - Founder & Writer

Ryan Riley-Tallon

Working on this project has been a dream come true. Being able to write and create and see this world come to life thanks to the help of Farah and Jawhar has been so exciting.

Building Arborforge Studios from the ground up, learning, researching, stressing, all of it has been so worth it, and I hope it will be as exciting to the readers as it is to me.

Farah Aousji

I’m a traditional and digital artist based in Tunisia, formally trained in art and architecture, with a degree in the field.

I believe every person, place, and idea can be conceptualised into something beautiful and compelling. I'm passionate about capturing that essence, one brushstroke at a time.

From indie games and TTRPG modules and campaigns, to comic books, I’ve had the pleasure of bringing characters and worlds to life through my art.

Every sketch is a new adventure, and I’m excited to embark on this one with the story, the gripping scenes, the fantastic landscapes and the iconic characters of Vita Arbor!

Hi ! I'm a Tunisian Artist with over 15 years of experience in illustration and graphic design.

My passion for art has always been closely tied to my love for everything fantasy and it shaped how i design characters and approach visual storytelling throughout my career.

I've worked across different artistic disciplines, from teaching digital and traditional art to producing my own comic book/manga to working on international projects with indie game devs, animation studios and comic books authors (and a few TTRPG modules).

I love challenging myself and my skills, and the feeling of forging an idea into a character design or a scene, a cover, a logo..is a high that can only be matched by the most thrilling moments around a TTRPG game !

So, this time around I'll be carrying all that I've learned and stepping into the world of Vita Arbor.

With fascinating tales and memorable characters that i hope I'll do justice to and get readers to feel the same emotions i feel translating these stories to art.
