Title: DM Drawings! [Unearthing the Lost Tomes]
Post by: Thilodius on May 27, 2009, 08:34:07 PM
Greetings new adventurers and old friends,

It's been a long time since I escaped into the Underdark with you all, and I often look back fondly upon the good, bad, and just downright insane times we had together.

Recently, in a bout of heart-rending nostalgia, I stumbled upon a project I was working on for EfU many years ago, in which I was sketching all the EfU DM's on my new digital tablet.  Some are exact likenesses, others are incomplete sketchups, and a few, upon request, are done to look like ridiculous action scenes.  I spent a good amount of time gathering photos and drawing these guys, and got quite a bit done, but in the end I never finished and thus never showed the masses my horrifying creation.

Well, your golden age is over ladies and gents.  I'm unleashing this creature upon you, and may god have mercy on your souls.

Oh, one more thing.  To make things a bit more interesting, I have chosen to leave out the names of the DM's for now, so you lot can guess at it.  The person who guesses the most right gets a drawing of their own EfU character.  I will release the correct names in about 5 days.  Fun!**

**(Fun not guaranteed)

This is a particularly difficult challenge because probably most of those pictures are of retired DMs.

If #10 is ninelives, that's the latest DM. If #4 is indeed Dep, it was either a specific request or drawn long before he became a DM (or exclusively for this).

4 is metro I believe

Love the Crosswind one.

Post by: Thilodius on May 28, 2009, 12:09:26 AM
Howland's right, most of these are retired DM's.  No one said it was going to be a cakewalk.  Most of you are way off, but its interesting to see what answers you are coming up with.  There have been a few correct answers so far, but I'm going to wait a bit before I show the names.

Think of it as an EfU history lesson - the more you know about our old personnel the closer you're going to be.

#1 is Harry Potter. Going on another stroll of destiny.

Post by: Sternhund on May 31, 2009, 03:16:56 AM
#5 is fantastic. I'm guessing #1 or #2 is Beggar, or Thrawn? #8 has defeated me.

Is Arkov in there?
Title:
Post by: Sandstorm on May 31, 2009, 03:46:18 AM
Arkov is #5

Post by: Thilodius on May 31, 2009, 10:58:14 AM
I'm suprised no one has recognized #7, what with all the clues in the picture.  And #6?  What DM was ridiculous enough to request that style of drawing?

...I guess all of 'em...

Here's a hint: he's #10's big brother.
Title:
Post by: Thilodius on May 31, 2009, 11:00:55 AM
More obscure clues: #2, 3, and 4 are friends in real life, and #1's supervillain name is El Bandito.
Title:
Post by: Cake_Or_Death on June 01, 2009, 10:50:57 AM
#10 is Sabaron so #6 must be Illum!

5 is Crosswind.

DM #7 is def DruQks

Post by: core on June 02, 2009, 04:55:46 AM
I think #9 is OMGBear.

Post by: Thilodius on June 08, 2009, 05:32:40 AM
Oops, it's been over a week, but here are the correct answers:

#1: Howland, aka "Howlando el Bandito!" (based on the infamous night that Howland got wasted and hopped on IRC...something not seen before nor since):
 (http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o125/Thilodius/Other/Howland.gif)  (http://www.vbulletin.com)
#2: cawila and the Raiders of the Last Temple of the Lost Crusade of Doom
#3: wcsherry toketh upon the hilariously long cigar.
#4: Strife and the ...I actually have no idea what the hell that thing is
#5: Crosswind, everyone's favorite revolutionary
#6: Illuminaughty.  wishes he was action hero.  surprisingly, is not.
#7: DruQks, juggling child rearing and dm skillz since 2006
#8: beggar: military by day, secret agent dungeon master by night
#9: Thrawn...pure, indescribable evil.  like, the same way a teddy bear is evil.
#10: Sabaron. gets beat up by Illuminaughty on regular basis.  funny, but still doesn't justify said brother's action hero status.

And of course, the RealityDevoid pic I made without seeing a photo of him (turns out he doesn't have long hair):
 (http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o125/Thilodius/Other/RealityDevoid.gif)  (http://www.vbulletin.com)

I'm going to update the original post as well.  Hope you all had fun.

Very nicely done Thilodius, thank you.

With this I agree.

That pic would make me hot for me too.

I'm 00Sexy!

Okay once I get back to my computer with my drawings on it in a couple weeks I'm editing that picture to read "00Sexy"...
