Message: <blockquote data-quote="kieran_of_the_dark_peaks" data-source="post: 8013031" data-attributes="member: 7024716">Hello all my annoyed linguists <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />, We've got many different types of species within the Dark Peaks, from Dusklings to Humans to Taurs of all kinds. This one, unsurprisingly, is the Crocotaur.  This is a WIP, so we've not done the shading level yet, but you can see what we're going for.  The native Australian style of body paint was suggested by our artist Laura, who thought it added something to this creature. I really agree with her on that.Crocotaurs are solitary creatures that live in the underground rivers of Deepmaw, the mountain in the Dark Peaks. They stick very much to their own company, hunting as ambush predators for anything to come through the darkness nearby. Then, with a single deadly leap, they strike with spear, claw and teeth. Lunch is very much served.[ATTACH=full]122899[/ATTACH]So, thoughts? Opinions? We're slowly moving towards the launch of the Core Rules in about September - so stay tuned for more information. You can try out a teaser adventure of the Dark Peaks through DriveThruRPG here - <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/311922/The-Dark-Peaks-The-Festival-of-Swords" target="_blank">The Dark Peaks: The Festival of Swords - The Dark Peak Gaming Systems | DriveThruRPG.com</a>. It's free, and if you enjoy it, we're always looking for more playtesters for the game.</blockquote>
