Commander Eesha

Another one of those "I like making characters for rpgs even more than playing them" This one is for DnD again His name is Kisk  He is an Aarakocra that left his flock with due to wonderlust, he like traveling the world looking for new experiences and people.   I based his head design more on a hawk so I wouldnt get too far from the canonical eagle design, but I based his patterns on a Great Kiskadee  He is a Way of the Astral Self Monk, and I based his astral form on the Commander Eesha card in MtG which was my first (and favorite) legendary! 

Now, anyone who’s played with or against Protection from Creatures knows how nuts this can be.  Can’t be blocked, can’t be killed by combat damage, can’t be targeted by creature abilities, and pretty much only vulnerable to spells.  Commander Eesha is a fine addition to an EDH deck who loves flyers, or maybe as a voltron deck themselves.  Their 4 toughness makes it tougher for your opponents to deal with them in terms of burn spells or damage like that, and while it only deals two damage, Eesha is more than happy to hold an equipment or two to make them swing and block much harder.  This is a card I sometimes put into my Isperia deck when the deck leans a little more equipment heavy.  Cuz there’s just some opponents who have a hard time dealing with Protection from Creatures, and it’s great to use this against them.
