It's not really a "house" - It's Kolat Towers. Kolat Towers is a pair of wizard towers surrounded by a small compound. There's a lot of spare rooms.

Kyrzin/Konzi emojis!
I started these just for fun a couple years ago. I wanted practice drawing different facial expressions, and I was starting playing this campaign, I had drawn the token marked "Konsiyoung" there for playing my character on vtt, and I decided to flesh it out by drawing six faces for Konsi with different expressions (tthose ones here are "angry, cry, dead, grin, stun, and tongue"
Obviously, some of my other players wanted tokens too, so I added those... and then I was running a campaign as well, so I drew some faces for that... and pretty quickly I had about 20 tokens (about half of them Konsi faces)
These tokens look really good in VTT. The thick black linework and pencil texture makes characters "pop" compared to the background, and gives them a distinctive look compared to normal monster tokens (which are usually crops of more detailed painterly art)
So, I decided every couple weeks I'd draw a few extra tokens to start bulking out the collection - with the eventual aim of providing a nice comprehensive "token pack" for people to use. Because I draw characters in all of my campaigns, it's pretty lopsided right now. Lots and lots of gnomes and goblins, very few dwarves or elves...
At the moment, it's a pretty decent collection, if you just want some quick tokens for various NPCs it's pretty good... but I'm going to keep adding to it.
