Paul D's April post - Leaders month the Prince of Darkness points, who's counting

I initially started this model a month ago and found  that I couldn't complete it because of by a surprising lack of 20mm square MDF bases, just one short, but that was enough. I've finally got my proverdial into gear and purchased more bases and have now added colour, sand and green turfs to the missing base and stuck it all down of the main base and finally applied a coat of satin varnish over all and sundary. This piece has sat in my to-do-box for more than thirty years, which makes it older than my kids!

 

 

The small figure carrying the axe is the actual main man, I've still to formulate a stat line for him, as he will be leading my demon horde at BOYL this year and given the vehicle and attendants my initial thoughts are a god! So where do you start? 

 

My initial throughts are unlimited power, knows every spell in the book and can only be harmed by another god, would appear to hit the mark, but what limitations can I add - their bound to remain close to the pentagram whilst in the mortal world, would appear to work. Otherwise, all mortals would see them in this form, which then leaves the question - what do they see now!

 I leave you with a section of my initial introduction for my game at BOYL this year which maybe a clue "The ancient one looks over to his pets, a cat and a young companion and calls the female to him, who receives a message for the young shaman in the camp of the barbarians – simply, obtain a suitable vessel to call the god’s avatar to the stone, the ancient one wishes to commune with his master at the spring equinox! The female moves her lithe body lightly over to the heavy door, lifts the latch, opens the door slightly and eases between the frame and door, keeping the draught of the main hall beyond to a minimum and leaves the study. She’s learnt her lessons well, considers the ancient one and recalls the single smooth scar upon her shoulder and tightens his lips, maybe too well, a test may be called for!"

 A simple paint job, which has been along time coming, that hits the mark in my book.
