“Art isn’t just about making something pretty—it’s about making people feel something.”

 The streets are your canvas, and the world is your audience. Whether through breathtaking murals, cryptic symbols, or rebellious graffiti, your art speaks when words fail. You’ve spent years perfecting your craft—sometimes in the dead of night, sometimes in plain sight—turning blank walls into statements of defiance, beauty, or truth. Perhaps you use your skills to challenge authority, inspire revolution, or simply leave your mark on the world. Some call you a vandal, others a visionary, but one thing is certain—your work refuses to be ignored.

Equipment: A set of painter’s supplies, a collection of spray paint cans or brushes, a mask or bandana to cover your face, a set of common clothes, and a pouch containing 15 gold pieces.

Suggested Characteristics

Street Artists are free spirits, rebels, and visionaries. Some see their work as a political statement, others as a way to beautify the world. Many live on the fringes of society, viewing authority with skepticism or outright defiance.
