Another brilliant piece of commedy :P, ...well, you might laugh... Options

Okay... since Stargelman is wayyy to busy to keep track of everything right now I've decided to ask you, Honorable Forumites, for opinions - and if majority likes this pic, I'll annoy Starge in the future with it. As you may or may not know I suck as an artist, in terms of drawing even a simple stick figure *inserts paperbag smilie here* however, when it comes to weapons, it's just a bit different story... so, without furder delay, I present you all my last work:

NAILBRINGER

This is, of course, a 1280 x 1024 wallpaper of a 3d weapon model, in this case an ancient Dwemer-made Vampiric Mace. Its look is simple, just as most of Dwemer designs, without any engravings or ornaments; its state also isn't all corrosion, but something more malevolent - there are bits and pieces of flesh, as well as dried blood, actually absorbed by that mace on its surface... and that is why it looks like that
The name itself is wacky - I listened the last Nine Inch Nails album, "With Teeth", for hours while making this nasty mace, and in the end, when my brain was totally cooked, name just popped out - a vicious name for a dark, twisted, life-consuming weapon.

And now, PLEASE, be brutally honest... it sucks owl, doesen't it ?

I have played a few dwarves in D&D who tended to like weapons that were larger than themselves- usually two-hand axes. (Overcompensate much?)

Not really. They're out to prove all the snottier, prettier, taller races that a smaller humanoid can handle their own preferred weapons in a superior way. No wonder preferred class is Fighter; they're built for manufacture and warfare, not ballroom dancing.

Sword bigger than the man himself? I know one of those. Yeah, those things are always funny, mostly because it is somewhat ridiculous. How the hell does he sheathe it?

I like the sword itself, size notwithstanding.


There is only one thing I don't like. There are no tabeltop rpg-players anywhere where I live. Dammit!

He doesn't sheathe it; instead, he flungs it in a harness-like thing diagonally over his back [similar to Scot's claymores]. That way, the weapon can be reached quickly with the right hand.
