Must be a Drow Priestess turned into a Vampire Lord. Everybody knows that Drow dress silly and dumb. That's why they're only so few of them to conquer the overworld.

 

[Belphanior]

She's got stars on her armor and a moon on her face.
And warlocks have "stars" as a possible powersource, don't they?

Y'know, I got a feeling the stars are out to get us this edition...

 

[Klaus]

Well, here are 3 more monster illos that cropped up today, they should fit in here... And speaking of fitting things in, WTF is with depicting female vampires with holes designed into their breastplates? The one spot where armor might be useful for a vampire is instead made a convenient target.

Nevermind the armor, what the hell is the deal with that hideous warhammer?

 

[Dausuul]

Yeah, the vampire pic is a bit off. The lich pic isn't all it could have been, a bit cartoony, but it's a dramatic improvement over the clunky-footed 3E one.

 

[warlockwannabe]

The quality (lighting, etc.) of the picture is of course better than the 3E ones, no question but the Subject (Tarrasque) is imo very lacking. It simply has no trademark feature which, when you see the picture, tells you that this is the Tarrasque. In 3E it was the carapace which defined the look of the Tarrasque. In 4E such a defining feature simply lacks and the Tarrasque looks like any other big lizard monster.

Actually, except for the fact that the damn thing just wont die, how would you know its a tarrasque anyway? Most people dont see it more than once. (Or not supposed to) A sage in the town might recognize it. Or perhaps the 5 cities it already ate, like Sheboygan and Cincinatti, had refugees telling of it which the sage figured out. But IC, you wouldnt know what the heck it was!

 

[warlockwannabe]

Is it me, or does that tarrasque look rather happy go lucky? There's just something about him that looks pleased. Anyways, it's a good picture.

Arent you happy go lucky at the end of an all you can eat extravaganza?

 

[DandD]

There is only one true lich... Mumm-Ra, the Everliving, eternal foe to the blasted Thundercats...

Hmmm, Mumm-Ra, the Everliving releasing the Tarrasque upon the heroes, now that would be nice.

I think it works as it protects their heart. besides, she is undead and boobs probably provide soft cover.

Nevermind the armor, what the hell is the deal with that hideous warhammer?

yeah, what he said ???

 

[warlockwannabe]

It's a nice enough piece of art, but it looks like a giant lizard with horns, which is hardly awe- (or fear-) inspiring.

I think the awe inspiring part is when it stomps your buddy flat...

That's so she can tenderize the meat without spilling its blood all over the place.
