There is one episode of this season of D&D Encounters which has a variety of fey plant monsters. They present Twig Blights, Twig Blight Swampvines, and Twig Blight Swampvine Seedlings as separate entities. I already have clay objects suitable for use as the seedlings (the
Carrion Vine Seed Pods from
March of the Phantom Brigade), but I'm attempting to make easily differentiable minis for the other two entities. These are Twig Blight Swampvines. The last object is meant to be a Dire Rat.
There is an extinct North American mammal called the
dire wolf. It was larger and scarier than the extant wolves, so the publisher's formula to make a scarier version of any normal animal is "Dire
x" where
x is the name of the animal. This is meant to be a dire rat.
Finally, this is Rollo Bones from the children's book
Rollo Bones, Canine Hypnotist by Marshall M. Moyer. Thus concludes the fruits of my productive Tuesday night at the studio.
