...y'all ever pitch the wildest fucking character concept to the dm, intentionally highballing, then choke when they say "Fuck it, we ball"?
...let me tell you about the sentient Kamadan I'm now playing in Pathfinder 🤣 I had never heard of them, but after seeing the official art I immediately resolved to paint my own take on the concept.
Made a couple sketches (bottom of the post) using Adeilosmilus (art courtesy of Hodari Nundu) instead of a leopard as a reference [since they're Large creatures and I have a brand].
Using African Rock pythons for the snakes - I'm thinking of making this a little druid or ranger-y, so I'm making the snakes partially covered over in moss - to the point that they look almost like vines or branches. I gave him the Adinkra symbol for "talons of the eagle", symbolizing Power/Courage , on his head for 2 reasons -
. A nod to the idea in East Asia connecting the tiger's forehead markings (which kinda look like 王, which means king) to their status as the king of beasts
. Also it's funny because he has Literal eagle talons - making him a chimera of all 3 of the most dangerous predators of primates - snakes, eagles, and big cats.
