The BrikWars Forums

Another year, another pile of silly new dudes. Went a little gangbusters this year. Apparently my theme this time is blue. Let's get into it. (All entries are purist)

Miralee & Filora
"Look at these guys, Fil. You seeing what I'm seeing?"
"Yep. Suckers."

Look out Jepherus, there's a new tinker in town. Or... out of town, I guess, as these two do most of their work on hapless travelers and inexperienced adventurers lost and confused on the road. Hole in your boot? They've got laces, soles, spares, hobnails, leather polish, dress socks, you name it. Snapped your only hunting bow? They've got a brand new gently used real custom elf-made brand-name basic composite expert level EZ-Draw artisan-inscribed army camo longshortbow. Whatever you need. They're masters at SEO keyword manipulation.







Sylvester, Bubblegum Banshee Drag Queen
"Honeydoll, glittermuffin, sweet beautiful babycheeks, I think you'd better sit down and shut your honking bubbleblower or you gonna catch these hands."

Extra fabulous even among the very extra Bubblegum Banshees, you can always hear "Princess Sylvie" coming from a mile away precisely one minute before she arrives, because she talks at a mile a minute. That's math, bitch.



Robobunny
"Kiss my adorable metal tail."

It's a robot that's also a bunny. It has a carrot katana. What the fuck else do you want.



Cyber Knight
"For the honor and glory of Space King John XXIV, prepare to be immolated."

In an alternate universe, poor old King Louis XVI was just about to be guillotined when suddenly the English army invaded France! Turns out there was one thing greater than the French citizenry's hatred of the bourgeoise: their hatred of the English. The year is now 3144 and the hundred-year war ain't got nothing on the massive interstellar cock-waving contest now being waged by these two ancient enemies. But somewhere around the mid 2800's though everyone realized just shooting your enemy wasn't satisfying enough, and knights came back into fashion in a big way. Apparently when you're waging war based primarily on spite, nothing matches the sweet, sweet joy of carving up some shmuck with a laser sword.



Fire & Ice Djinni
"Bro step off, you're torching my cool."
"Well you're icing my sizzle, bro."
"Bro."

Ooooh fire and ice elementals who are brothers. A Cool and Original Concept.



Zonkar, Ilithid Elder Sorcerer
"Pbllbbthui'gh. Phtnagl-Akhtnorp."

Don't be fooled by his intimidating appearance, this guy is actually a total sweetheart. Unless you have a brain. Then he's a ravenous eldritch fiend with enough magic in one tentacle to turn your flesh and bones to goo to get at that sweet, sweet mind matter. But assuming you don't, feel free to go up and introduce yourself! He really is a nice guy. Unless he smells brains.



Duke Irenis
"One more disco ball joke and I will eat your face, peasant."

Look, he gets it, all the glitter and sparkle is almost too much. It's not for you. Ancient dragon dating culture was all based around who had the biggest treasure horde and who could show it off the best. These days things have gotten a little more sophisticated but glitter is still a huge part of their fashion. Duke Irenis is very fashionable and very single, dragon ladies.

These are all great! The way the wagon is built around a horse hitching piece is quite ingenious.

holy shit that cyberknight robobunny though

a few more last minute figdumps lmaooooooo

Troll is kustom, others are purist


Ascended Bubblegum Troll
"Tremble before our overwhelming sugar content!!!"

Bubblegum trolls serve as shock troops in the Banshee Queen's army, as well as unpaid laborers for any difficult or boring task the banshees don't feel like doing. But every now and then a troll achieves bubblegum nirvana, increasing their power level astronomically. This lil' cutie can literally turn your flesh into sweet chewy paste and blow bubbles the size of watermelons with it.





Black Falcon Standardbearer
"Forward men, show no fear!"

The infamous Black Falcons need no introduction, But sometimes, in the heat of battle, they need a standard to rally around. Only the most courageous warriors with the loudest battle cries are chosen to be Standardbearers, because whole battalions often stand or fall by their prowess.





Skull Eater, Orc Chieftain
"You want glory, boys? You'll have to beat me to it!"

Skull Eater leads a mighty tribe of orcs who are all his sons. He has, like, two hundred sons. He earned his name due to an old habit of drinking wine from the skulls of his enemies, and then eating said skulls afterwards. Crunch crunch, yummy bones. Stay the fuck away from this guy.

Ok, I am definitely going to make a variation of that standard for my own Black Falcons. Very cool!

I like Skull Eater a lot, and also his concept. And as the owner of an instant Black Falcon faction thanks to Ideas and Creator 3-in-1, the Standardbearer excites me in ways I fully understand.
