[QUOTE="GuyBoy, post: 8376900, member: 7031143"] Now for a real beast.... [ATTACH type="full"]142362[/ATTACH] This mini (or maxi ‘cos he was a giant) was a Real Partha giant, retailed under the name of Hecatron.....and, boy, would he have been a great receiver for Detroit! But to me, he is Gror, and represented my first real attempt to customise a monster according to a figure. It was around 1981. I was 17 and had put the party through the G series and into the D series. Snurre was dead, Obmi’s treachery uncovered, Asberdies had been laid to final rest and Eclavdra had fled to Erelhei Cinlu, her plans in tatters. But she had Gror! I decided that she had taken Snurre’s young son to her home some years previously as a hostage, but had seen potential in the young fire giant and had him trained in the best drow battle strategy. He was a fire giant, but I added ranger levels ( TWF with morning star and gauntlet) and drow spell resistance. That resulted in massive hit points (for 1E) and the damage potential of several howitzers. When Valon the Patriarch, Celetan the Wizard, Lord Octavian, Shirthoth the Fox (who was a thief if you hadn’t guessed) and the other fighter whose name I forget, but had lost a hand to Snurre’s sharpness blade, finally entered the sunless vault of Erelhei Cinlu, Gror was waiting for them..... And Celetan cast disintegrate, and overcame spell resistance and I rolled a 1 on the save....and it was 1E Nice miniature though. [/QUOTE]
