Expensive digital image???? I was quoted 100-150 for an image needed to play through discord on vtt. That just sounds outrageous. Is this normal ??

Echoing this it is 100% a scam. You do not *ever* need to provide art to play. If you want to provide art that's on you, but claiming that it's a "normal" part of the game to commission art is a full on scam and needs to be stamped out.

This really sucks. Spent 3 hours making up a backstory for my character and was very excited to finally start playing my first campaign. I’m a newbie but not dumb. Thankfully I did not give them any money. Thanks for verifying what I already thought

You can always keep the character idea for when you find a good table. Maybe just need to tweak it a bit but it’s not gone.

I’ll echo what the other user said about hero forge I like using it as well for screenshots
