I'm none too fond of them myself, but personally I'll save that picture for if the double weapons (minus the quarterstaff of course) should sneak their way in.

You, Sir, are a scholar and a gentleman. And I salute you (and your superior eyesight, )
EDIT: ps Mourn, get over it!

Word. I could barely make out anything in those pictures, so keep them coming!

And I love seeing humans written up monster-style. I love making new monsters, and this will just let me run wild without spending nearly as much time at it as 3e.

EDIT: ps Mourn, get over it!

Do I need to show you on the doll where the spiked chain touched me?

LOL @ Mourn's pic.

Good exciting crunch, but I'm getting nervous at how I'm going to effectively keep track of all these marks.

Do we know what the recharge mechanic is, or how it works. I mean we as ENW!
and @Mourn, I really don't want to see your spiked chain holes!

lol I agree!

I don't think we've gotten details (unless anyone at D&DXP has seen it in action). Since the only recharge #s we've seen have been small, I'd hazard to guess that it's the number of rounds before it recharges.

and @Mourn, I really don't want ot see your holes!

But... but... it only costs you a quarter to watch me touch it while I touch my toes.
