I see them every time I open the box or, pick up the rulebook but until now I've never really given them a second thought, let alone any stats.
So if you were writing up one of these delvers, how would you outfit them? What type? What attributes? What back story and, what equipment?
I have always thought that the orcs do not appear to have any weapons, so is this a mixed race group of race haters, exterminating the defenseless orcs in their home?
ReplyDeleteExterminating a group of defenseless orcs in their home.. Yup, sounds like delvers to me. ;0).
DeleteThen again we can't see what far-right orc has in his hands. Could be duel pistols.. At least that's the tale that they'll be telling at the tavern. Oh, and there where 10 of them. All heavily armed. :0D.
Watch out for the fairy...it may have 30 combat adds with its tiny weapon.
DeleteLol, am I the only one that finds it odd that something that small could put up a fight with a troll in hand-to-hand?
DeleteThat said, I have always fancied running purely fae folk through the solos and, Gnomes have always been a solid favorite of mine, no matter the system. Then you've also got Fairies, Leprechauns, Pixies, Nixies, Sprites, Trow, Goblins, Boglins, Brownies.. The list is seemingly endless.
Whilst not always practical, I'm sure it'd be a lot of fun. :0).
I don;t have v7.5 so hadn't really thought about this cover. But went through a period in the 1980s of trying to generate characters to go with all the Danforth illos in my copy of 5.0. Most successful was a female rogue (forget the name) with quilted silk armour and assegair based on the picture on the Saving Rolls page...
ReplyDeleteSounds great!
DeleteI don't suppose you still have the character sheet and, would care to share?
