I'd known about this, but it was the insurance policy part that really made me laugh: in my head I saw a bronze statue of Baphomet perpetually undergoing mitosis.
I'm glad they removed the caduceus though, it made it look kind of busy. I like the more alien-looking head too!

The alien-looking head reminds me very much of the Faun from Pan's Labyrinth, which I can get behind.

Does anyone have some medium sized boat maps? I was told to find a map of the layout of a boat and haven't turned up anything useful. It's an Eberron game so some steampunkyness is okay.

It's unfortunately on "indefinite hiatus" as he redesigns/ponders a few things and does some other projects, but he still thinks about it a lot and doesn't consider it dead.

Is there anything here I can swing from?
I've been over the entire torrent from the last thread looking for something and even approximates the earth-blessed race from Inverse World and I'm coming up with nothing. Here's how the book describes them:

quote:

The Earth-blessed, nicknamed goblins, are a race of
short, androgynous, hairless folk with metallic skin and
flat noses. The toughest of these people have skin like
iron, while the weakest have skin of soft gold. Their
eyes are a single, solid color, and their ears flop down
like a dog’s.

So is there another setting that has metal Warner brothers or am I stuck bugging my artistic friends for character portraits?

edit: To illustrate and also actually submit some fantasy art here's an example earth-blessed from the Inverse World kickstarter page.

Oh god what did I just post?
So I somehow stumbled onto this Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/user/lindybeige which talks a lot about actual ancient weapons and armor. Everything from the intricacies of chainmail, and how twohanded swords were used on that battle field, to why you want the grip in the middle of shield and how a scyth is about the worst possible weapon to pick if your planning a peasant revolt.

Anyway he makes a very interesting point about fantasy weapons in on of his videos: Most fantasy weapons are base on real world weapons which were designed to fight other people. They were not designed to take down 30 foot long armored monsters. It doesn't matter if you have a katana, a claymore, or a falchon, they all suck if you facing a giant acid spiting hydra or the like.

Does anyone have pictures of Monster Killing weapons. Things that look like they were clearly designed to take down inhuman target, Medieval tech or earlier preferably.

Or Harpoons, maybe. Only real weapon I can think of that fits the bill. Except for possibly a big rear end lance.

There is some very sensual touching going on in the cutscene there. i don't actually think it means anything sexual but it's cool how it contrasts with modern ideas of what bad ass stuff should be like. It even seems authentic to some kind of chivalric masculine touching from a tyme longe gone
