Malebranche now a demon

[Simia Saturnalia]

The dragon bothers me, as most dragons do, because the wing physiology is so wonky. While I understand that if we want to have flying dragons, we have to put up with a bit of suspension of disbelief--things that big aren't going to fly worth a damn--I would just, for once, like to see someone depict a dragon with at least passingly believable flight muscles inserted at the mechanically appropriate location. This dragon looks like it could wiggle its wings a bit, but not much more.

I find I'm more forgiving of musculature than body shape when it comes to creatures impossible on their very face. If the silhouette barely glimpsed against the clouds as it dives down on the party looks sleek enough, I'm sold. YMMV.

That gallery is just SO anime!

Seriously, though, I like the direction of the art. I liked most of the Death Knight images, except the floating elf paladin(?), and the Grazzt article are was quite evocative.

I can handle the concept art, but the archon does looke like a fire elemental, and the trog looks too much like a lizardman statue.

The omelette smells delicious so far, so I'm not really concerned about some broken eggs.

Shocking!

They never showed up in my game, so it's not going to rock my setting particularly.

Well that is great for you, but this completely kills my Malebranche/Succusbus campaign I have been working on for the past several months! Now what am I supposed to do? Throw my whole cosmology out the window?

Like I'm the only one who saved a copy of the original.

It looks better overlaid on real porn.

"Heh. Overlaid. Heh.", -- N

Yes. But keep the artwork. It sounds like you'd have a sizzling hot setting gallery.

Anyone else noticed the Dwarf wizard is wearing heavy armor yet? It appears they've finally done away with ASF.

Or it's some kind of Dwarven racial Talent. That'd be sorta cool actually.

Those dwarves look bad ass!

I'm less a fan of the monster illos. They look more cartoony than 3e's menacing, starving, ready-to-chew-your-face-off WAR illos: the creatures have distinctive profiles and very obvious border lines. Perhaps they'll look better on the page when they're in color and all at the end, but I'd rather have unnatural weirdness in my monsters than cartoony similarity.
