Anyone who knows me knows how much I love minifigs. This is probably the most fun I've had messing about with minifigs in a long time. I enjoyed this so much I've actually done two sets of the figs. I'll post the others in the new year. Not one of these figs has an off the shelf combination of legs and torso.

  

This must be the first 100% purist set of figs I've posted, I've always loved Brickwarriors, Brickarms, eclipse, CB and pretty much all of the aftermarket stuff.

Numerous chronicles document the various servants of Lolth The Spider Queen, known to be a capricious and manipulative goddess, creating and discarding her chosen ones and champions with such ease, even demigods under her command such as Selventarn, ended up being used as a mere distraction for the followers of the Lady of the Dance, Eilistraee during The War of The Spider Queen. The servants of Lolth are but pieces in a great game of Sava for the Lady of the Demonweb Pits, and in the wake of this, many of these figures arise and fall into oblivion, leaving only chronicles of fascinating figures such as the Lady Penitent.

 

In this document, I compile, thanks to sources that I fear must remain anonymous, everything we know about The Dark Phoenix. A figure erased from history, fallen, mostly into oblivion, though even today it is said that whispers of her can still be heard in the deepest regions of the Underdark of Ancient Shanatar.

 

Some individuals claimed she was a slum harlot, who caught the eye of The Spider Queen in her thirst for vengeance against the nobles, others that she was a noble maiden of a great drow house with ambitions of power. For this reason, her early origins will always be uncertain, but what is known is that this woman contained a mysterious inner power that brought her to Lolth's attention.

 

There are myths, buried both by time and by the different sects and beliefs in The Spider Queen that, variously spread throughout the houses of the Drow City of Guallidurth in deep Xanathar, speak of this figure, in a fragmented way, apparently, this woman fought combining a martial grace with these strange powers that accompanied her techniques.

 

These almost forgotten myths attribute The Dark Phoenix as the main force in overthrowing and destroying the last Dwarf King of Shanathar, banishing the Delzoun Clan from the southern region of Faerun, this figure would continue to be shrouded in mystery, as an agent of Lolth, hunting down all other rival sects of rival faiths, subjugating the Vhaerunites and the Kiaransaleans, which would cement the Guallidurth known today in the southern Underdark. The legends of The Dark Phoenix picture her as ruthless and cruel, relentless in combat, leading the charge ahead of even the slaves, annihilating the Spider Queen's enemies left and right with her strange and unusual flaming powers and her exotic weaponry that, for some reason, resembled the starry sky of the surface.

 

Not much else is known of this woman beyond her name and the last time she was heard of, Keirana, she had been sent north by Lolth herself, on the hunt for a great enclave of the Lady of the Dance, never to return. It is believed that this is one of the reasons why this figure has been buried in the annals, for her disappearance could be consider an embarrassment to the Spider Queen's followers.

Driders are centaur-like creatures, Transformed Drow from the waist up, with their lower portions replaced by the abdomen and legs of immense spiders. They are most commonly found in the Underdark. The transformation is typically a punishment for offending their goddess, Lolth, or failing one of her tests.

I'm not very good at posting things I create on an ongoing basis :) I created this video and this set at the turn of October and November 2022. It was an entry for the LEGO Ideas - Dungeons and Dragons competition, the aim of which was to design a set referring to this famous game. I'll write right away - I didn't win :)

THE GREAT BATTLE OF GOTMAS.

 

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate, and Happy Holidays to those who don't! When I made my recent habitat series, I initially wanted to make six, with one for each of these characters, but ultimately ran out of time. Still, I wanted to share them all with you anyways, so I hope you enjoy these festive (and not so festive) folks! If you're interested in the lore at all, read on!

 

While many people associate the dwarven holiday of Gotmas with Father Gotmas(for obvious reasons), the holiday was originally a far less merry celebration. Translating in dwarvish to mean "day of triumph," Gotmas was a celebration of the victory that Gotramor and the Elysians brought to the dwarves when they ousted the old, warmongering dwarvish king, and fulfilled the promise of finally ending the Unending Wars. For centuries, it was a holiday celebrated with a great feast, though minus some of the revelry and fun decor. When Nikolaj Frostbeard began to see families down on their luck struggle to partake in any sort of preparation for a large feast, he decided to take the holiday a bit further.

 

After years of helping out struggling dwarves with treats, desserts, baked goods, and eventually even toys and gifts, he had become quite the hot topic. The cheer he was so resolute to spread drew the ire from even those that lie buried under the earth, forgotten by society. It's said that a Duergar from deep in the Underdark resented the Gotmas celebrations so much, he took it upon himself to ruin them one year. The Duergar—known as Vladimir Krampuscan—heard tale of Nikolaj's exploits, sourcing all of his gifts and merriment from a "Realm of Wishes," and decided to venture there himself.

 

Vlad decided one day, when Nikolaj was on his way to enter the Realm of Wishes, to sabotage his mission and venture in after him, though he failed to properly account for the manner of Nikolaj's portal. Taunting the dwarf, he warned that Gotmas would cease to be, and tackled Nikolaj through the wormhole. Without a specific setting in mind as he crossed through, however, he plunged into darkness, tumbled through time and space, and fell unconscious. When he finally came to in the Realm, he discovered himself in a place where all the extremes had collided, and wishes that defied one another came to do battle. The opposing wishes chose to align themselves with two primordial forces, whose endless battle was thought impossible to resolve.

 

Krampuscan stood before a world half frozen by the harrowing winds of winter, and half ablaze with the scorching flames of summer heat. It was there that he met the Miser of Heat and the Miser of Snow. In a twisted turn of fate, he was somehow able to persuade them to pause their conflict, and direct their war and aggression elsewhere—somewhere their destructive might and potential could actually be realized. Now with command over ice and flames, Vladimir carved a portal into the ground, and brought his newfound allies into the world whence he came, ready to destroy Gotmas once and for all.

 

It is said that in his ambush, Nikolaj landed in a distant region in the Realm of Wishes, and had to venture a long, long way back to his workshop, the place from where he could return to his world. Along the way, he met a couple of allies who swore to help him, believing in his cause. Vixenia and Merry, thus, joined Nikolaj and journeyed far to reach his workshop. Stepping through his portal, he found his home in turmoil.

 

The city was besieged by Krampuscan and his sinister allies, spreading their destruction throughout the streets. Houses burned, shops froze over, and Nikolaj's people suffered. He took up arms, resolving to slay the Duergar and the interlopers, or die trying. When it seemed that all hope was lost, and ol' Frostbeard would meet his end that day, he was joined by two familiar friends.

 

Vixenia and Merry had journeyed from their world to his, to aid him in his fight to save Gotmas. An epic battle ensued, which inspired many a Gotmas song, and the tides had finally been turned. With Vixenia's sage wisdom on the balance of nature, and Merry's sound persuasive abilities and quick thinking, the Misers of Heat and Snow were once again pitted against each other, as Nikolaj delivered the final blow to Krampuscan. It is said the Defiler of Gotmas evaporated as Nikolaj's sacred hammer swung that final blow, leaving no body behind. With the remaining adversaries distracted by each other, the Guardians of Gotmas banished them back to their home plane, and ended the battle.

 

Vixenia and Merry stayed thereafter, aiding Nikolaj in his efforts to clean up the town, and restore his people's cheerful festive spirit, no matter how many years it took. The legendary exploits of Frostbeard earned him the moniker of "Father Gotmas," and dwarves all over the continent began to honor his bravery and mimic his gift-giving traditions. To most of the continent of Ridgar, Gotmas is simply a dwarven day of celebration and presents, but to dwarves themselves, it is a celebration of resilience, community, and the triumph of good over evil. While the damage of the Great Battle of Gotmas has long since been healed, the great irony remains: in his efforts to defile the holiday spirit of the dwarves, Krampuscan only ended up giving the dwarves even more reason to spread festive cheer.

After experimenting with many ideas including a fiery one, Kathryn Chodor decided to design her Beholder after the colors and fauna of the Underdark!

Always aglow in the underdark, the forge of The Ancient Anvil works tirelessly under the hands of the master smith and apprentices. The steady clang against the anvil providing a heartbeat to the city.

This is my Mixel Mind Flayer (or illithid) for the IRON BUILDER Mixels Contest. Was going to make it look like a Mixels package, but decided against it. I did use the D&D logo though and included a cute little "registered" emblem.

 

A bit about this build. He is based off of a sinister creature that resides in the Underdark from the D&D Forgotten Realms. I built him with legs, but I wanted to achieve a "robe" like look for him so the closer I bent the legs in it kind of looks like one body piece. I used pieces in six different Mixel packs to create this nasty. If I was asked to list those six I don't think I would be able to because I opened about 10 but kept them in separate piles.

 

Two more on the way (Hopefully)
