D&D General Graz'zt Petition

[Graz'zt's Lawyer]

I don't like the image of Graz'zt in the fifth edition of Dungeons & Dragons. Just not and that's it. He's not handsome, just ugly in my opinion and I don't want him to look that way. That's why I created this petition. If you also don't like the Graz'zt 5e and you miss its 3rd edition version, please support my campaign!

Can we get some examples of the 3e art? What I'm finding at a glance is not exactly hitting that 'beautiful' mark either.

Wait Graz,zt has a lawyer?

Isn't that a little too lawful? Is he making deals with the Baatezu now?

Of course. For example the works of Wayne Reynolds. Here, and here. These are my two favorite official images. Besides, there are also fan art, such as those of Leonardo-Lambrecht, JasonEngle, or nJoo.

I act unofficially. I don't know if my client even knows about my involvement, although I suspect that considering the case I am dealing with, he would not mind. I made it my duty to defend his honor and good (bad) name.

What exactly do you want done? Do you want WotC to send stickers to us to stick in our 5E books? What is done is done.

I would assume, have new art, in upcoming content.

I know that. But as Scribe writes, it would be nice if in the upcoming official additions, new manuals, and other works that will feature Graz'zt in the future, it looks more like in third edition. Because the one from the fifth definitely does not seem attractive to me.. a bit weak for a Prince of Pleasure.

To be fair, that piece is from a book which the artist did a ton of the art, and thats clearly just their style.

I like it, but I can understand if you are looking at the Reynolds piece in particular, wanting something different.

I've just looked back through the art in 3e and I think the 5e art is a step up. A definite improvement when you look at the art of Graz'zt through the editions (especially compared with 1e but then I think that a lot of the art for that edition was trash)

Yes I know about it. I don't think it would bother me so much if I hadn't had the impression that this image of Graz'zt is becoming more and more ubiquitous. In "Tasha's cauldron of everything", as a miniature from Collector's Series... I preferred his previous image and I wish I had seen him in 5e so far.

You are entitled to your own opinion.
