howdy folks, so, i made another sale of chainmaille today, a co-worker bought a byzantine bracelet off me, so i made $10 today. i headed over to imperial hobbies and bought me some more warhammer guys and talked strategy with a fellow player who was there. Actually i played very well last night, 6 units of space marine tactical squads, 1 missile launcher, 1 flamer, and 6 other marines. My opponent was playing Dark Eldar, we were playing in a city setting, and he had a trio of skimmers (2 attack and 1 transport) sitting near each other in the street, and i fired a missile launcher, made one attack skimmer explode, which set off the other attack skimmer to explode, which in turn blew up the transport skimmer, that one shot really turned the tides for me. I won that match.
Anyways, i ended up walking back home and passed through a residential zone, and there were a couple young girls out side, one was playing with a dog, the other sat at a lil table selling lemonade. It was so cute i couldn't help buying a cup. $0.25 a cup, the cup was about 6oz. and it was decently prepared. so yeah, i did my good deed for the day.
So, i was going through a bitz bin for warhammer, and found an orc skull that reminded me of an illithid's head. so i was thinking of making the head into a full model of an illithid, and using that for any future Dungeons & Dragons game that i play an illithid in. mind you, it's unlikely it'd ever be played. So i was looking at the Monster Manual for the entry, though at a +7 level adjustment, i know i'd never play an actual Illithid. sooo... i was looking around other places, ie Complete Psionic, and Expanded Psionic Handbooks and Unearthed Arcana. I found some cool feats in the Complete Psiconic; illithid heritage, illithid grapple (which stacks, and gives you tentacles from your mouth untill you take the feat 4 times and get all 4. At which point, your jaw shifts to look like an Illithid's jaw) and illithid extraction (which allows you to do Intelligence drain damage to an opponent). using flaws, human race, Psionic Warrior, Human Paragon, and fighter classes, i can get the full out Tentacles, and be able to take the Illithid Hunter Prestige Class. That class is focused on hating and killing mind flayers. so this character is part illithid, and hates himself. it's a very angsty theoretical build. it's quite amusing.
