It's very nice short story. A+!

[Armok]

Brilliant, like everything you do.

The heart in a bowl was a nice touch, as well. Excellent as usual.

Alright, just to make a select few of you happy (You know who you are!). People were drawing Night Maidens from one of Deon's mods over in the draw your adventures thread, so I was inspired. Story time!
-snip-

That's not a Night maiden that's a less spiky Construct(A creepy(female)creature with stitches all over its body. Iron spikes pierce its skin in different places.). Clearly there's a Cursed Blacksmith(A hulking humanoid in a blacksmith apron with a smithing[sic] mask covering its face. Its hands are replaced with a hammer and a sword which are grafted into its flesh, a long hook sticks out of its back and there's an iron spike instead of one of its legs.) nearby.

Lovely story, there.

[micelus]

Superb once again. *Slowly claps hands*.

This lead to the downfall of the Maiden. Gotta love products inspired by ingenuity these days. Beautiful story by the way, wonderful art and placing!

But...Sorry if I'm too in detail, don't ears rot away along with the rest of the meat bag or was that cartilage I see on the peasant below? [Nice armor too, wondered how they keep their food preserved.]

How do you post photos us without first uploading them to a site? I was thinking of adding paint sections to Sky Searcher.

[Urist McCheeseMaker]

imgur or photobucket, I'd say. You're still uploading them to a site, but it's not -your- site.

[Kestrel_6]

Thanks. Since the death of Sheb Strongsky, Mechanical pilot, I thought it would be fitting to draw his final resting place, on Lastros Ak'Mkal. Be sure to join!

[Trapezohedron]

Fantastic short story there. Of course, Tosid being a dwarf, he was probably more attracted to the weapon she held, in all definitions of attraction, than her.

Yes, but the story that was swirling around in my mind had altered slightly by the time I posted the picture. Originally that was supposed to be a fresh kill, with the face disfigured (probably chewed off), the eyes removed (probably ground into a potion), and an incision starting at the neck and ending just below the belly button. The armored skeleton was supposed to be a former hammerman who had been seduced by the night maiden and turned into her protector, his soul forever damned. Which is why the skeleton still dons all it's armor and why it's actually on the bed of straw rather than on the floor next to it. Implementing these ideas in the story would have just made it long winded without really adding anything.

so in other words the hammer had some Ruins that rose the dead, and the ability to make Night maidens survive the daylight(which normally they can't.).
thus meaning the history of that scene was, Hammerer adventurer ran into a lair during Bogey hours and didn't know his hammer had special abilities. a night maiden who was chasing him now released from her curse walks into the den. Now Seeing a naked Lady walk into a lair caused the Hammerer to think she a random Adventurer ask her to join. She agrees then horribly cursed the man into guarding her (by horribly I mean it was a bad hex the spell bound the man to his hammer than to her). So now with her dead does this mean Axe dwarf gets a undead hammerer buddy to go out clubbing, or would this just lead to her head being reanimated and now forever stalking the Axedwarf until she gets drag off by dogs or something?
