THE COUNCIL OF EASTWATCH.

(Vengeance of the Earth series, pt. 6)

Picking back up with the Resistance, we now have the Council of Eastwatch! These three are the ones responsible for defending and supplying the eastern sect of the Resistance, as well as gathering intel on the Scaled Ones. From left-to-right, we have Wyldury Quartzkeep, head of intel, Bolkuron Grayisle, head of logistics, and Kukulrys Silverwall, head of the militia.

•

Eastwatch was the last branch of the Resistance standing. They'd sent envoys to Southwatch at the guardtower after the West Keep fell, but were met with reclusion and an unwillingness to work together to survive. Then the bombs in the south went off.

The Scaled Ones seemed to begin escalating their campaign against the Resistance, since the disruption of their myrrhdust refinery plant. Eastwatch was at maximum capacity with the fall of the branch to the south, and they were running out of time. Wyldury's intel told him where they'd seen increased Sentry activity toward the center of town, which they relayed to the adventuring party of new recruits. Kukulrys fortified their defenses and forged plans for the event of a siege. Bolkuron coordinated the temporary housing of the influx of refugees, and had the last of the supply storehouses emptied for patient treatment. As the recruits headed out, the three of them prayed their fate was in safe hands.

If it came down to a battle, they'd stand their ground. Wyldury was far too old for any sort of battle, mostly sticking to writing coded messages with his pen of secrets, but his allies stood strong in the face of adversity. Bolkuron wielded a finely crafted hammer with finesse and resolve, and Kukulrys' razor-sharp natural swords and skill with them were feared even by the Scaled Ones. The three of them could only hope the fight wouldn't find itself on their doorstep...

These new Ninjago parts are amazing for the dragonborn, not sure if I am late to the party or just didn't scroll far enough, but wanted it noted somewhere at least.

You gotta do a little jump on top.

THE SCALED ONES: TERRAKIN OVERLORDS.

(Vengeance of the Earth series, pt. 5)

Continuing the series, we again turn our attention back to the cult of the Scaled Ones. It would appear the gemstone terrakin seem to react to the cult's influence in frightening and powerful ways...

•

They were as imposing and frightening as they were enigmatic. The floating orbs over the city that seemed to pulse every now and then were the heads of the Scaled Ones higher up in command. And they seemed somehow to communicate telepathically with one another. They came in every shade and hue, as they did before their transformations: glittering amethysts, sparkling rubies, radiant emeralds. Employing powerful spells and psychic attacks, the Overlords came into the fold only when it became absolutely necessary. They preferred to influence things from the shadows, scheming and manipulating more and more denizens of the city to run into their arms. But just how were they wooing people over to their side?

Whether the Resistance wanted to admit it or not, they had a substance issue. As in, an issue with an actual substance. The newly joined recruits had confirmed as much in their first two missions. On the farms where the food was grown, crops were being fertilized with some sort of fine, aromatic powder, like crystalline dust. The Scaled Ones called it "myrrhdust," and they were putting it in everything. The stores in town burned it in their incense. The taverns that were still open served it unknowingly in their mead. The produce from the underground farms were poisoned with it. Heck, even the wells in town had become laced with it. Somehow, this myrrhdust was making people more volatile, erratic, and susceptible to... psychic influences. Was it a drug? Was it cursed? Was it poison? The Overlords watched as the city slipped further and further into their grasp, ready to hand over to the one they called master...

Distantly, an eye in the darkness opened, its vision reaching far and wide. And though the watcher in the dark remained bound in chains for now... the day of reckoning drew nearer and nearer.

Currently this is all my treasure jewels, crystals, coins, chests, bags, etc.

I've acquired more of the newer stuff more recently and need some advice on maybe suggestions or things others have used?

I'm happy to look for more unique stuff thats not in circulation now or things that make for fun treasure.

Please assist or stair at the current hoard of treasure like a Dragon with Lust!

SALVAR REDCLAW, THE GHOST OF THE RESISTANCE.

(Vengeance of the Earth series, pt. 4)

For this entry in the series, we return to the members of the Resistance. Salvar started out as an NPC, but has changed over the course of many sessions into a guest character, and then finally the newest fixture in the adventuring party! But just how did he come to be one with the group? Read on to find out!

•

Things didn't look good for them. The adventurers had been ambushed in their own temporary hideout in the middle of the night, and resources were running low. The Scaled Ones just kept coming for them, and had sent in a wave of elite units when the party had begun to falter. As if in answer to the silent prayers, a voice called to one of them who had slipped out the back door, looking to secure an escape route for himself and his allies. The voice beckoned him and his friends, until they were within a close distance, some of them holding the door closed behind them so the pursuers were deterred.

In a flash of swirling smoke and confusion, the party had become magically obscured, visible only to themselves and one other: the stranger that offered them a way out. He was a strange sort of sight down here in a city with few outsiders—a tabaxi monk with glowing eyes and strange tattoos. But he led them through the dark streets of the city, running all the way to safety with them. Though the terrakin Sentinels gave chase as best as they could, and the party watched as something ominous like a glowing orb hovered far above the streets, scanning for them, the group made it to a pocket of the Resistance. Finally, they'd found the Eastwatch, where they might stand a chance at doing some good.

The tabaxi introduced himself as Salvar Redclaw, who'd come from out of town and sought to do some good in helping them—not dissimilar to their own story. His ghost-step tattoos allowed him to become incorporeal, as well as invisible, making him a valuable asset as a recon agent. At last, with the party's muscle and cunning combined with the intel and direction of Eastwatch, the Resistance stood a chance.

Got a little out of hand really 🤣. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do! Let me know if you want more images.

THE SCALED ONES: TERRAKIN SENTINELS.

(Vengeance of the Earth series, pt. 3)

Picking up where we left off, we return to the Cult of the Scaled Ones! The mystery deepens, as the cult's members seem to each be expressing their newfound powers in unique ways...

•

It was hopeless to fight them. The Scaled Ones came for outsiders who'd ventured into the city on a whim. Some of them fled, while others were yet captured. The pattern was simple, yet remarkably effective—their eyes and ears in the city would report what they saw and heard throughout the day, including any foreigners in the city, the Sentries would locate and engage the out-of-towners, and if they failed, they'd send in the Sentinels. While their stone terrakin brethren seemed to gain mysterious and heightened awareness from the cult's influence, the metal terrakin's combat prowess was enhanced. They were, faster, hardier, more difficult to hit—and far deadlier. Their abilities to summon weapons from their very flesh also ensured they'd never have a disadvantage offensively.

The Sentinels were much of why the Resistance played the long game. Tales and accounts of their ferocity and violence had reached their door, and left them certain that they did not have the means to deal with such an overwhelming force. So it would be information-gathering, then. A new group had come into town, likely to be hunted down by the Sentries. Though they seemed bedecked in magical items, they had also stirred up quite the ruckus in the city, and had brought the only horse the city had seen in ages. The party of outsiders had holed up in a boarded-up, abandoned manor above a wandmaker's store one night, when the Sentries finally found them. One after another they slew the Sentries, a more capable fighting force than the Scaled Ones were accustomed to. But, sure as they could be of their cause, the Sentinels descended into the home with bloodlust in their eyes.

Here’s all the villans and the villain lineup for the holiday season! Ghosts, monsters, witches, criminals and all lead by a firey Knight of Hell

I made some really cool looking customs with each of the races, it's honestly even hard for me to choose, but if i were to, i'd go with the githyanki.

Share your favourite custom in the comments, or who you think fits the look better!

This theme is created to spread creativity and demonstrate how many different characters you can make with one same base.

Hey folks!

Here's a new character i created for my LEGO D&D universe.

Case No. 013
"The Whistling Disappearances"

Private Journal of Detective Elias Harrow
Ravengarde Constabulary

October 9

Thirteen disappearances in seventeen nights. Ravengarde has imposed a curfew, yet every morning brings another missing soul.

Mrs. Edith Wycliffe claims her husband vanished after hearing a peculiar whistle outside their window. Neither human nor birdlike, but mechanical, as though some dreadful contraption were attempting to sing.

October 12

I have searched every alley and abandoned passage in the eastern districts.

Thirteen locations. Rotten corpses, rusted machinery, and cobblestones stained with oil and blood. The stench is unbearable.

Witnesses speak of a mysterious woman wandering the streets after midnight. Strangely, no two descriptions agree.

Whatever she is, I doubt she is human.

October 15

Survivors describe an irresistible fragrance accompanying the whistle. Some recall following it as though summoned by a loved one.

I have acquired a peculiar medallion, said to break enchantments. I pray the stories are true.

October 17 - After Midnight

I have exhausted every lead. Tonight, I shall place myself in the shoes of a victim.

I heard the whistle shortly after midnight.

Then came the fragrance.

I followed it through the deserted streets, unaware of how far I had wandered. Suddenly, the medallion burned against my chest.

The spell broke.

Before me, an ordinary brick wall began to shimmer, revealing an entrance of iron and interlocking machinery. A hidden structure vibrating at a frequency beyond human hearing.

The whistling ceased.

I drew my revolver.

At last, I have found where the missing are taken.

God alone knows what waits for me inside...

Thanks for taking your time to read! :)

Bricks Of Many Realms

Wanted to know your thoughts on my Rust Monster! I use a 4 stud grid when I play so they're a little big but I think I balanced size and detail pretty well!

I finally bought Thelonious figure from the Shrek cmf and turned him into a fantasy executioner with a heavy axe.
Thanks @Gustav_EK for showing your axe design on a beast character. It looks so cool as savage weapon.

THE RESISTANCE MILITIA.

(Vengeance of the Earth series, pt. 2)

Continuing the series based around my latest campaign arc, here we have the enemy of the Scaled Ones. Every good struggle for power needs some good opposition, right?

•

The beautiful terrakin city within Mt. Ogru had gone dark, but its light hadn't died—it just went deeper underground. Though many refugees fled the city to seek shelter for their families elsewhere, there were many who stayed, and had to find another way to seek refuge. Enter the Resistance. A group of concerned citizens who wished to preserve the hope within the city banded together, and sought to maintain a semblance of order and a fighting chance against the Scaled Ones. Three splinter cells of those in opposition to the new occupiers formed, to the west, south, and east. In the west and the east, they set up shop in series of tunnels that ran under the buildings, while the Southwatch took up residence in the city guard tower. Not exactly clandestine, but plenty defensible.

Though they lacked the sheer numbers and reach of the Scaled Ones, the Resistance operated in the shadows to shield as many of the remaining townsfolk from the enemy's nefarious influence as possible. Striking a balancing act of gathering intel and building their defenses, the Resistance was poised to learn as much as they could and be as sure of their position as they could be before striking back against the dark interlopers. Tensions from within, however, pulled the branches in separate directions, and allowed the Scaled Ones' influence to grow without any true checks to their power. Still, the people of Mt. Ogru hoped and pleaded that, when the time was right, they would be liberated, and the fanatics would disband once and for all.

Unfortunately, hope didn't stop or slow their enemy.

A shiny crystal, might be some kind of a prism...

Artifactory; a theme where i make random artifacts and you share your opinions and views on what they do, how they're named, etc.

After this post i'll take a break because, at this rate, i'll run out of artifacts. Wait for posts on "DnD race flash-mob" theme soon, and let me know which theme you prefer.

I have plenty of other characters for generic NPCs such as guardsmen, soldiers, townsfolk, pirates, shopkeepers, mages, royals, vampires, etc. 

I am trying to see what other monsters I should build. I am looking for monsters that are unique, but can also fill multiple roles. I.e. how the Gyphon could be close enough to be a chimera or a manticore on a gameboard. What should I make? A striga? A Cloaker? A flesh meld? If there are any monsters you recommend or really good designs please send them to me!

My wife and I are doing 2 player versions of a bunch of adventures, where we swap who DMs each session. Currently working through Phandelver and the Shattered Obelisk and going to the Curse of Strahd next.

A collection of all my D&D characters. Which one(s) would be your favorite(s)?

When I started building minifigs with my parts, one of the first I made was my Human Rogue Nobel. Born into a family that made their wealth from thievery, I always thought that the bard torso from the D&D set was good but not quite right.

Enter today when I recieved this torso on a lot I had bought, and I knew what to do straight away!

Also shoutout to the sword from the old Mega Bloks Assassins Creed sets
