Mein Weihnachtsgeschenk: Kafedaki von Izzy

Ich habe mir selbst ein kleines Weihnachtsgeschenk gemacht! Ein elektrisches Kafedaki von Izzy, was nichts anderes ist als die gelungene Kreuzung von einem Wasserkocher und einem Ibrik. Über die letzten Jahre habe ich deren Entwicklung verfolgen können. Ist der erste Mokkakocher, der TZS First Austria “Mokka-Express”, noch ein sehr rudimentäres Gerät, war ich mit der Fakir Kaave Mokkamaschine…

Commission for @columbojumpscare!

I was tasked with making a skull (using Actinistian anatomy) for his fanmade elder dragon Thaliaasil Kaav!

An elder dragon with a wide gape and weak jaws that relies on its massive tusks, the largest of which go through holes in the head in order for the mouth to close like mastodonosaurus. The various pits are scent glands and thermal windows. The more veiny ones are packed with blood vessels to dissipate heat, and the more pit-like ones house muntjac-like scent glands that can inflict sleep. The top horns have less blood vessels to support a thinner keratin sheath, and instead have a large covering of Fulgurite!

A new mission assignment has been received !

The Embrace of Morpheus

Main objective: Explore the Timeless Caverns

Surprise objective: Slay a Thaliaasil Kaav

Client: Guild head chemist

Legends say that the mysterious soporific sand used in local rituals came from a time during which the entire region's inhabitants were put to sleep for a century: folk, monsters, and dragons alike. We have recently heard word of a potential hotspot for the stuff near a desert cave. This might be our ticket to create traps which could even subdue elder dragons ! And so we need you to help us investigate the area, but beware, we have no idea of what we will find deeper in there.

(FYI: This monster's eyes are not visible on the icon.)

Is there anyway we could take a tour through Thoris's weapons collection? Either the one on earth or the one on andoria.

Hello! We absolutely can do that! I hope you don't mind the delay - I took some time to draw concepts for a few weapons! (Scale is all over the place, just roll with it.)

Thoris' collection travels with him between planets, so it's all one collection rather than two split ones. Andorians take personal armaments very seriously, which should surprise no one, and Thoris considers his arsenal part of his personal kit.

Details below the cut!

So, pictured above we have:

Veeg-kaav (Veeg snare)

Rezhveeng (Throwing knives)

Punch-blade

Ngoog (Boot knives)

Ushaan-tor x2

Phoog aam Kor (Clan Kor-style sword)

Hrisal (tactical)

Hiith (Belt blade)

Plasma tonfa

Mace (traditional Andorian)

Plasma rifle

Plasma pistol

Shattered lirpa fan blade

Some of these are self-explanatory, such as the boot knives, throwing knives, punch-blade, and belt blade. Most of these are holdout weapons, or last-ditch close quarters options. An Andorian is never unarmed, if it can at all be helped, and Thoris has many years of experience in hiding weapons on his person.

The veeg-kaav is part of Thoris' hunting kit, as veeg cannot be readily be killed unless the head is separated from the body. The snare serves to pin the head (and thus the body) down while cutting through armoured chitin and allowing the user to give a sharp twist to the side to separate the head from the rest of the beastie. (The spikes along the haft are, in Thoris' words, "For when the little bastard dodges and I have to bludgeon it back into a corner.")

Thoris' ushaan-tor have a little wear and tear, as an oft-used weapon might. He's probably due to replace these with freshly forged ones, soon, but he has a fondness for weapons with a few scuffs and gouges; it shows they've not been idle.

The Phoog aam Kor (or Clan Kor-style sword) is a Clan variation on a traditional single-edge sword popular throughout Andorian history. Each Clan has a slight variation on the same theme, changing up the blade's edge, or length, or altering the shape somewhat. Clan Kor favours one which is serrated for the last two thirds of the blade.

The tactical hrisal (the blade from which Clan Hrisvalar draws its name) is a vicious weapon, meant for inflicting deep and catastrophic wounds. Andorians have a scant few deep arteries and veins in their bodies, and the rest of their circulatory system is a vast and dense network of capillaries. A hrisal blade is intended to punch through chitin and sink deep enough to not only reach but rupture any such major blood vessels. The triangular wounds left behind are extremely difficult to close, even with modern medicine.

A plasma tonfa might seem a bit bizarre at first, but I am compelled to remind readers that Andorians don't believe in nonlethal weapons. More than that, Ambassador Thoris is largely of the opinion that if he hits something, it shouldn't be able to get back up again. The plasma tonfa, to that effect, can discharge superheated plasma if the user desires - though it is a single-use charge, and meant as a last resort.

Thoris' plasma rifle and pistol are the standard Andorian Imperial Guardsman issue, though he has taken the time to customize the grips for both.

The mace is a very traditional, very old school weapon by Andorian standards. It's not something Thoris uses often, but he's as proficient with it as everything else in his collection. Mace design doesn't change much across species, as it turns out - something Dagmar will find amusing - but unlike most examples of Terran maces the Andorian versions are extremely heavy.

And, finally... the shattered lirpa. Contrary to what some believe, this is not a trophy. Somewhere out there is the Vulcan officer who led the boarding party that killed Thoris' eldest sons. The coward responsible fled before Thoris' squad arrived on scene, pulling back the moment the tide of battle turned in typical Vulcan fashion. It is a cold comfort, but even amid the chaos and the damage it was evident that his sons had fought well; a great deal of blood was spilled in the choke point they were protecting ahead of engineering, and most of it was green. The younger of Thoris' sons shattered the lirpa that killed the elder, but succumbed to his wounds before help could arrive. Thoris has carried the fragment with him ever since.

(Strangely, Ambassador Soval has never once protested the lirpa fragment's inclusion in Thoris' weapons display. No one can quite decide what to make of this, Thoris included.)

Hope this was enlightening! <3
