The original vertical arrangement of villains was merely meant to look intimidating from atop the balcony, two-hundred feet away. In no way did I actually intend you to battle it out with all of them over a fifteen feet by fifteen feet base! Curse that distance warping cleric of Fharlanghn!!! :D
As mentioned before on WhatsApp, Power gamer Bastien, though awesome in ALL other areas, had by 11th level, only 22 skill points total. This, in combination with his heavy armour, meant that he was incapable of jumping a stream, climbing a rope or staying on the back of a bucking drider! ;P
It's true, centrally positioned Bastien did have a much better chance to stay on Fluetin the drider's back than either of the completely unprepared Nitendae or Volkon. Fortunately, Nitendae had delayed his previous action and was able to activate his boots of levitation. Appearing fifty feet up in the air, Volkon had to rely on his sharpened barbarian reflexes to grab onto the flailing legs of the drider floating beside him. Bastien teleporting onto the drider's back with Volkon and Nitendae either side of him was both genius and hilarious. It made the whole weekend for me! What actually was Bastien's final ride skill and reflex check?
The flush chain was deliberate (it's actually meant to be more like a dog lead) just for a laugh. At the scale I was drawing at though, it'd be hard to do anything that different. Nitendae's 'desperately reaching' expression into 'I need the loo' though is an incidental bonus! :)

That's brilliant!
ReplyDeleteAlthough I imagined the lady Sybille with fewer clothes!
The blueprint and height details are absolutely spot on.
Love it
... 50, 60, 74, 80 ...
ReplyDelete🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bastien falling? How dare you. He was heroically leaping to the rescue of a dragonsel in distress!
ReplyDeleteEpic picture. Wonder if I can make it into my mobile wallpaper...?
Due to the angle Lady Sybille was being viewed from, I erred on the side of not-being-porn.

Even when I very specifically, very carefully, and repeatedly told you that Bastien was the one in the middle. With the best chance of holding on...
ReplyDeleteHe still fell off :-(
He had such a good spell in reserve too.
Harm: Simple touch attack, to do 110 damage (Will save halves it to 55).
Strangely, Bastien had a disturbingly large number of Necromantic spells in his arsenal!

Also; after everything I threw at Bastien over a protracted series of running battles, he still had HARM in reserve?
ReplyDeleteWTF!
truly epic picture, although the chain of command looks a bit like an old fashion wc chain - which I look desperate to flush....

yep, guess I was pretty scared....
