Darkdragon

is it alright to create a small scene as an illustration of what is going on in a topic post (such as Heroica Hall) ? Other then character picture, almost every post is just words and was thinking I'd Like to add some illustration (photo) possibly to my next post.

Cinna looks at the stranger who has joined Bob at the table. "Hello, I don't think we've met yet. I'm Cinna The Dark. Who are you and what do you do?" She smiles so as not to look too intimidating to the newcomer.

Cinna smiles and sits down in the chair accross from Bob. "Nice to meet you Bob. I'm Cinna, you might see me sign my name as Cinna The Dark but most people just call me Cinna. My parents added "The Dark" because of my interest in the darkness magic - don't worry though, I'm not an evil mage." She has a sip of wine before continuing. "I come from the nearyby town where I grew up. You are right, I am a mage - almost all of the people in my family are mages going back many generations. Actually I just completed my preliminary Mage training with Master Conshaw at the local School of Magic. I've come here to Heroica Hall to gain some real world experience and hope to get some gold to send back to my family too." "After I was passed over for the quest I signed up for, I've also been wondering what to do. I did buy a shovel in the marketplace and I've used it to try and find some treasure down by the beach but haven't found much. If you like seafood, there are some tasty clams down there. Other then that, well I found an old boot and a broken mug. Nothing too useful. I can't just head home yet so I keep checking for new quests and see what the rumors around town are." "Looks like you are a mage also, what drew you to magic or was it something you were born with?"

Cinna walks into the still quiet hall, she doesn't even need to stop by the quest board to know there is nothing new posted. Instead, she heads straight upstairs. She sees a few folks up there already, mostly looking dejected and bored. One catches her eye, a small house elf sitting alone at a table. She tried to catch his eye but he is looking down sadly so she heads to the bar to order. "Hi Scheherazade, I'd like a white wine and whatever you think a free-house-elf might like." she nods thank you when the drinks are set in front of her and heads to the table with them. "Hello there", she says to the house-elf, "what has you down?" Cinna takes a sip of wine and sets the other drink down in front of the house-elf. "And do you mind if I sit here?"

It has some new cool parts (chocolate ice cream) and also some cool minifig parts. I will probably be listing the actual Sponge Bob figure on Bricklink soon. 3816 Glove World

Same here. There were mostly Cleric and Ranger when I was developing my character. I was originally going to go Cleric but just seemed like there were too many and not nearly enough Mages.

Nice. Thanks for the detailed info. If I had any painting skill I'd give it a try myself

I think these subtle changes turned out great. The flat wash finish and detailing on the hair and beards look really nice. I would be interested to know how the the painting stands up after using them for a few weeks.

Hi again, I somehow missed this message. Yeah first meeting went well, decent turnout.

I like the figure and the whole vig. Love the balancing rock and the cow skull!!

Wanders back into the hall and looks over the quest board in hopes of a new posting. After seeing nothing new, she heads upstairs for some food and drink. It was a long morning of unsuccessfully digging for treasure on the beach. Cinna sits down at the bar and orders a dinner and pint of ale.

What a perfect solution It makes perfect logical sense too. I had assumed this but was not sure if others had - I'm glad you mentioned it.

Sees the names are posted for quest three and excuses herself to check the list. She comes back momentarily with the disappointment evident on her face. "Oh well, perhaps next time I will get the chance to thwart evil and prove my worth. Bash'm good Cronk." She takes her seat again and orders a glass of wine. "As a matter of fact, I do have a story to tell. " she replies to Sir Sven and begins to tell her tale...

I hope it's ok to post this here. I notice some players have no character image or have blurry image, I realize not everyone has camera capabilities to get a good photo. In the spirit if cooperation, I would like to offer my assistance in this matter. I have around 800 different Lego torsos, so there is a good likelihood I have the one your character is built with. If you send me the bricklink catalog number for each element you want on your character, and if I have each element, I will build the fig and send you a full body shot and a 100x100 avatar photo of your character. Please PM if you are interested or have any questions (don't want to muddle up this topic).

Walks over to introduce herself to the young knight whose tale caught her attention. "Hello sir, I'm Cinna of Hauvington. I was intrigued by your legend, I'm sure the story must have kept many children out of the forest. But what of you, did you brave the forests in spite of the tale?" Starttles as a loud voice talks over hers at nearly thesame moment with the same question even. The voice belongs to Cronk, an Orc knight she has not met but has heard these past few days. "Hello Cronk," she chuckles, "Looks like we are of the same mind about this daring knight. "

Chuckles quietly to herself as the lady ranger plops down onto the chair the chicken had previously been foraging for food. A tuft of air puffs out of the hole and sends a small fluff of cotton into the rangers hair. When the Elf leaves with another ranger for a walk, the cotton remains in her hair. Cinna gestures to try and get her attention but the rangers are already heading out the door. Still with an amused smile on her lips, Cinna turns back to Atramor. "I forgot to ask, does your companion have a name?"

As others have said, they are all great in their own way but these are my least-favorite out of each set. S1: Diver - Meh. S2: Explorer - To me very boring and I have other figs with very similar designs already S3: Alien (only fig in the whole line I don't like at all)- I dislike everything about this fig except the 3L bar S4: Ice Skater - Really hate the hair and the skirt but the legs are useful S5: Fitness Dancer - Would be better without the headband print on the head, but I might learn to love it S6: Nothing so far ;)

"Well met, Atramor. Glad your companion likes the granola better then cotton." Cinna leans in closer to Atramor and speaks in the same hushed tone he did. "Personally, I believe sometimes the less you are told about your employer the more likely you will be alive for the next job. Not being told is no reason to be unaware though, I too like to know something of my employer. Of course it always depends on the job, but sometimes it is better if others don't know that you know what you know. You know?" With a wink she leans back in her chair and takes a sip of her wine.

She smiles and nods at the man who just sat down in a nearby armchair. "That I am, good luck to us both. My name is Cinna, what is yours?" She looks over at the stranger's companion tearing a hole in another chair and back at him. "I'm not sure the proprietors will look to kindly on your companion destroying the furnishings. She seems very intelligent though, so maybe if you ask her not to tear at the chairs?" She reaches into her pocket and pulls out a handful of granola. "Perhaps she would prefer this over cotton?", she offers the granola to the man.

Cinna walks back into the Hall, glad to see the arguing and raucous of previous days has quelled. As she catches sight of a few new mages to whom smiles and nods at any that catch her glance. She heads over to the quest board and, seeing nothing new today, makes her way to a comfortable seat by the fire. If she is chosen for Quest #3 she guesses there might not be any comfort or relaxation to enjoy for a while.

I will keep this list updated and will add (pending) next to any items already in a pending trade. Please PM if you have an offer! I'm in the USA but International trades are fine too.

Cinna wanders through the marketplace, taking a look at all the wares available. She sees a great many items of interest but unfortunately has not the funds to purchase them all. The weapons stall does not interest her much, but she spends a lot of time going back and forth between the potions and tools before finally deciding on a purchase. She approaches the Gnome's Tool Shed and smiles, for she really does enjoy his insulting puns. "I'll take one of those shovels." , she tells the proprietor. The Gnome hands her a shovel off the rack and she hands him her 10 gold pieces. "Thank you much." , she says to the him as she puts the shovel away and heads off to the Inn for some rest.

The brand is Sterilite and those containers (i have many of various sizes and they are my favorite) are actually discontinued. Only Walmart has them now and once they are gone they won't come back (though I can't say how many the walmart warehouses have which may be tens of thousands). Original topic: I store all figures as parts, sorted by color/print style.

Breaks out of a sound sleep she fell into while studying fighting techniques. Perhaps it was the warm fire or the boring reading, either way at least she feels rested now. Heading upstairs to the bar to order some food and drink, she spots the man who she believes gave her a hug last night though she didn't respond at the time since she was already falling asleep. He is already sitting with some other adventurers and conversing so she doesn't disturb him, but makes a mental note to introduce herself later. "One cheese and bread meal please, a mug of milk too if you have any.", she asks the barkeep when she is approached.
