Dungeon #124 - Who are these guys?

[Desdichado]

Is it just me, or does nearly every "action shot" from issue #124 of Dungeon feature the same party of characters? Who the heck are they supposed to be? What are they supposed to be? I'm assuming the one gal with the horns is a tiefling...?

 

[diaglo]

yes. they are.

read Erik Mona's letters....

They're Paizo's "iconics." So when they want an artist to illustrate a paladin (for instance), instead of explaining the whole "holy warrior" routine, they can just say, "Draw this dude!"

Here's a bit more info...

I read the first two dozen or so posts of that thread, The_Gneech. Does it --or anywhere else-- at least say who these Paizo iconics are supposed to be? Name, race and class, or something?

they are waiting until the whole series is released and complete.

I thought the cover of #125 was something out of the old Planescape: Torment CRPG.

That alone would be enough for me to pick it up.

No, they are being quite evasive about that.

they are part of the Age of worms or whatever it is called adventure path. they don't want to give away too much.
