• A mockup of the cover of SIDEQUEST Issue 20. The cover art depicts A fantasy market bazaar filled with stalls and shoppers. In the foreground a female half elf gazes into a purple crystal ball which shows a dragon and in the background a shirtless, tattooed human man with long ginger hair lifts up a sword to inspect it while speaking to an older dwarven shopkeeper. Text overlaid on the image describes the contents of the issue.
  • A circular token depicting A living plant shaped like a woman with long green vines for hair. The creature's face is a knot of roots with glowing orange lights for eyes. The creature's chest has a mouth like that of a venus fly trap which it uses to eat its victims after luring them close with the bright flowers it has across its body.
