The pink sox DO take it. Nice updates.

[Herr D]

Evocative. Have you read The Dresden Files? I often thought a more mercenary Dresden would’ve been more interesting.

[Herr D]

Wow. I was actually startled to be reminded that some people have more time on their hands. I seem to have less–as well as less access.

Is the King Atlantean?

[Herr D]

It IS a shame how much work those IRL creations can take, but well worth it. Mine are 13 and 10. (And trying to take over the world already.)

[Herr D]

Is Codex’s tail mobile? Remoted? Interesting.

[Herr D]

Agreed! [takes blue marker, draws jagged arc on red tentacle, flexes] Doesn’t make one stronger, though–hmmmm . . . I need to practice, I guess . . .

Out of time again. For CDC Phaedra:

Phaedra, AKA Doral Em’Lan is an unusually robust specimen of Aelurian. Large and freakishly strong, agile, and fast for her size, she also has the rarest trait of all their best hunters. With each of her two non-nightvision eyes, she ranges more into the ultraviolet and infrared than most. Aelurians typically have necks that can turn 150 degrees in any direction, allowing their concave faces unusual sensory range. Though they don’t look catlike at first, their fur, balance, acrophilia, whiskers, nightvision, and hatred of water, not to mention their diet, categorizes them as feline, while skeletally humanoid excepting the feet, teeth, and claws. Aelurians are uncommon for their tusks and mouths being mid-torso.

Phaedra’s shame is that she USED to be so instinctively obedient to her leader that she instantly flung herself from a palace window on her command. It was the close of a festival, and her leader was very drunk. A passing streetsweeper had collected just enough decorative material to cushion her landing.

“Saved by city glitter!”

[blink-blink] Yikes. Thank you, Funkm, for the reminder. Due 4/21/20 at noon. Hopefully to be judged by 8pm (EST.)

Got three here for you. I love misuses, for any first-timers. Noses as spaceships, flowers as mouths, etc. One extra point for a backstory that includes some mention of masonry.

My last chance to work on this one! Have a dragon. Notably the only items I used BESIDES the three designated were a background, two of a mouth, the zyp circle, and some masking and screening insignia.

Look out for the grooken, he’s like a dragon with mollusc-shaped plates rather than the usual scales. Chilling them rapidly can render him vulnerable. Chilled grooken meat is like sushi.

Funkmachine! In the interests of continuing this contest, I declare you the winner. I hope your items will inspire better than mine have. Please pick three and a deadline!

[Herr D]

I REALLY want Izumi’s sword. Chopping hatred down to size would be neat. Filleting a war into a few thousand extra shouting matches would be downright cool. Halving grief or pestilence? Yikes. Take the edge off of suffering? Wow…

[Herr D]

The Seafarers are coming along very well. Kraken’s Widow is particularly t–uh, well done. [blushes blue for a moment]

[Herr D]

Tanks and compressors HAVE miniaturized with advances in materials (and engine) engineering. Burst Boots may be that small within the decade. Also air-powered now are all other tools and weapons currently out there. This one may be soon arriving, BB.

[Herr D]

Still a fan.

[Herr D]

I like your reference sheets. I’ve been working on a format that would assist the memory-impaired. (Slow going.)
