This image belongs to the (very awesome) fanfiction "Forgotten- The Fall of the Seekers". If you like Seekers (especially the Seeker brothers), dramatic and super well-written fiction, I can only recommend to read it. Here it is https://novastorm73.deviantart.com/art/Forgotten-Fall-of-the-Seekers-123891523

I love the Essek portrait on the back of the ReAction figure box, is it yours?? Also if I can ask, what the process like for designing something like that (thinking like how they outline what they want you to do and creative license?)

Hello!

I DID draw the packaging illustration on Essek M9 figure. I did not design the figure. I don't actually know who designed him, I think they just credited Super 7.

It was actually a super interesting process, and one that I'm getting more familiar with as I work with Critical Role more. The fig wasn't made yet when they brought me on to the project, so I worked off of mock-ups, mostly. They wanted a dynamic portrait of Essek that reasonably matched the figure, but also they were keenly aware that the design of the fig was constrained by the kind of (imo) very fun, retro style of Super 7 molds.

Because of that constraint, there are choices in those illustrations that I might not have made if I had been drawing Essek from my personal perspective, but I can honestly say that they've grown on me! I sort of wish I had added some elegant scroll work in his greaves, maybe in silver thread.

I haven't actually seen the package art as it appears, yet, so I'm dropping a little snapshot of the final art with the sincere hope I'm not actively spoiling something. I can't see how I would be.

Thank you for the question, and for the kind words!

PS- In the full length art, he is hovering!

PPS- My personal headcanon of Essek is the one by @theminttu

1) I never knew Nick Thornborrow's name, and now I'm going to be studying this man's work for days

2) Thornborrow is a *banger* of a last name.

Bringing attention to good work is my pleasure 🫡

Matt Rhodes (as usual!), Casper Konefal (who recently made artwork for the vinyl!) and Ramil Sunga are also some of the artists involved with the tarot art so be sure to follow their work too ♥ pretty sure they're all on Twitter

Oh! And I don't know if they confirmed what they worked on specifically but I'm pretty sure @theminttu helped illustrate the DAV tarot deck!

I made a 3D recreation of TheMinttu's Team Fortress 2 fanart, Stalemate by TheMinttu. Please check it out, @theminttu makes beautiful artwork.

Created in Blender. My first time rendering in Cycles. The cigarette smoke is a transparent Eevee render overlayed on top.

Cigarette smoke port by Hisanimations. The tie Sniper is pulling at (and buttoned shirt) is a mesh I made that uses Spy's suit texture and follows a keyed Bezier curve.

The Eclipse Dungeon (Part III)

So, I figure I should do a preamble to these and maybe explain why I made this and why I chose 13th Age as a system. Well, I've been watching Frieren and Dungeon Meshi lately which have naturally inspired me to build a dungeon. I'm also a huge fan of mazes and puzzles in general, so it was good fun to just sketch this out. As for why I chose 13th Age, I've enjoyed this system a lot. My times playing it have been brief and few but there's tonnes in it to enjoy. Hopefully this inspires people to try it out so I'll have more opportunities, because its a really easy system to learn the basics of. Additionally, I feel 13th Age is better suited to a dungeon adventure than others.

The Queen's Maze

When the players emerge from the previous Labyrinth, they'll find a barrier to the North-East is now open. This is perhaps the most complicated of the areas and will require some backtracking as well as splitting the party (potentially). Which is why you require 3+ players. It's literally impossible otherwise. The reason why will become clear as it's various facets are explained in order. To start, let's revisit the map and go through each location. For the most part we'll go in order with the exclusion of Location 8.5 as players will likely encounter this soon enough after Location 7.

Location 8.5 is the first of several barriers in this area of the dungeon. Across a wall beside it, in large lettering, is a message. Any character who is an Elf or has the Linguist feat can read it with an Intelligence check requiring 8+ to succeed, adding any applicable background skills. Any backgrounds relating to ancient cultures, old languages, or archaeology could be useful to this check. For characters of other lineages who lack the Linguist feat, they require 14+ to succeed. When translated the players learn that it says: "With time, all people must part from those they walk beside". This will hopefully provide players an insight into how they should approach this maze.

Location 7, is a triangular room with a small pedestal in its centre. There are two walls which have murals. The first wall they see has a mural of several elves fleeing underground from a dark red sun. In its centre, is a woman carrying a swaddled baby. The second wall has and image of Drow emerging from below ground, with all of them staring up at the moon above them. Central to this image is a younger dark elf, who is holding her mother's hand and stands directly below the moon. That pedestal has a small hourglass filled with sand. When flipped over it opens the barrier at Location 7.5 for around a minute (9 rounds). It should be made clear that the sand in this hourglass is running out.

Location 8 possesses another hourglass on a pedestal as well as two more murals. The first wall seen shows the Elf Queen, now fully grown puppeteering several suits of armour which battle against humans in golden armour. Her expression is cold, dispassionate one of a woman who has been at war for an age. The second mural shows her sat at a campfire, across from the Human King with that eclipse in the sky behind them. Their expressions have softened and she is laughing as he speaks in a casual manner. When flipped this hourglass will open the barrier at location 8.5 for around 20 seconds (3 rounds). To clarify, they can be flipped again when the time runs out (this is implied, however it's always important to specify details).

Location 9, unlike the others is at the end of a corridor with two murals on either side. These depict the union of two kingdoms into one. Debates between human and elf scholars, mixtures of architecture, fashion are on one wall. Feasts, dances, quiet picnics between the Elf Queen and Human King are depicted on the opposing wall. Then at the end of the corridor, behind the pedestal holding an hourglass is a painting of their wedding. Flipping this hourglass will open the barrier at location 9.5 for 5 seconds (1 round). With this, the characters should be able to send at least one player through to the final puzzle with 3 players.

The Final Puzzle and Second Animated Armour

-Art attributed to HoDaRaKe.

The final room of this maze contains three paintings. The first is of the Queen bowed before a grave, her expression twisted into the specific agony of fresh mourning. She is alone. The second painting shows the sun and moon starting to overlap in another eclipse. The body of the King writhes and contorts on the ground beneath it as the Queen looks away from him and that eclipse. The final mural depicts her leading him underground, chased by soldiers wearing silver and gold armour. The sun and moon part as they descend. On a pedestal in the centre is an hourglass with bone white sand. Unlike the others its sand is resting in the top half of it. Meaning if it is flipped the sand will have already run out. The answer is to simply turn it over, to accept they are out of time, at which all the barriers in this maze open. This also unlocks the final door to the long corridor and triggers the armour in this section to begin moving.

I suppose now we should talk about that monster hiding around a corner at the end of the initial corridor for this maze. It is another suit of armour which behaves in an identical manner to the previous one (check my page for Part II). However, in terms of its appearance the armour is silver rather than brass and gold. Due to this it lacks the vulnerability and resistance of the previous armour suit. Additionally, in terms of its behaviour, it does not pursue the party as its counterpart would. Instead it simply waits at the entrance to this maze for them to return.

-Image from the 13th Age SRD webpage.

I would argue that for a party of 3 adventurers, a Monster Level 1 should pose a significant challenge to the characters. I also realise that I neglected to state which is the Better or Lesser defense of these armour suits earlier. I'd argue that their Physical Defense of PD is higher due to being armour. Additionally, it would not be unreasonable to give them immunity to conditions such as Fear or Stun. However it's also perfectly possible to relabel these effects narratively. Stunned could be a locking of armour joints which impedes movement, for instance. The main thing is to have fun with the fight, give your players a challenge and give anyone looking for combat their fill. A palate cleanser to the difficult puzzle they solved.

Again, to be clear, I likely got a tonne wrong here and messed up on different things. However, you'll learn that yourselves by playing this game. So if you play it and think I got stuff wrong be sure to reblog or reply with helpful advise others can implement for their own usage of this. I'm grateful for any sort of support or advise. I wish I'd had a chance to play this with people but the 2nd Edition will be out soon enough so I doubt I'll have the chance.

Transformers: Autocracy (Phase 01) #4: Cause and Effect

Read Date: October 14, 2022 Cover Date:February 2012 ● Writer: Chris Metzen ◦ Flint Dille ● Art: Livio Ramondelli ● Letterer: Robbie Robbins ● Editor: John Barber ◦ Carlos Guzman ●

Synopsis: At the Jump Joint in Kaon, Megatron is telling Orion Pax how impressed he was with Orion challenging the corrupted Senate and proposes that they work together. Orion doesn't care for his offer, but keeps the conversation going to stall for time until reinforcements can retrieve him and Bumblebee. Megatron reveals that the reason Orion's team was attacked in Nyon was that Zeta Prime had information leaked to the insurgents so that he could use their deaths as a pretext for attacking the city, backing it up with Soundwave's recording of the recent security meeting.

Just as Orion Pax loses patience with Megatron, the rest of his team attack the Decepticons and rescue Bumblebee before escaping on board the Autobot transport, Sky Lynx. Megatron lets them go, believing that Orion will damage the Autobot cause himself with the information he has learned.

Back at Iacon, Orion asks Zeta Prime about his plans to attack Nyon, only to be ignored and accused of repeatedly leading his team into ambushes. Zeta gives him a chance to make up for his failures by capturing the insurgent who attempted to bomb them in Nyon: a neutral Transformer named Hot Rod.
