I remember this guy from the cover art of some of the old Dungeons & Dragons adventure mods. Gotta love the throwback every once and a while

| Lessee,
some of the stats (but not all)
Male Human Fighter 18 (CR 20) hp: 318 AC 34 BAB: +18 Saves: F: 20, Ref: 9, will: 8 weapon: +3, human bane, anaracic, flaming burst (+32 to attack with it)
Notable feats: Power attack, cleave, Whirlwind attack, spring attack
Fearsome eye Fiendish graft (see fiend folio)
Warduke's helm, as a major artifact
Spell Resistance (from helm)
Those are the majority highlights from that issue of Dungeon. I don't want to go too in depth, obviously.

I'm guessing he'll hit for well over 20- he's got blood on his sword, and the only two figures to have bloody weapons hit for 30 (ogre ravager and frenzied berserker, though the aspect of Kord does not...) so I'll guess 30 magic + 5 fire or so.
Nice mini, it's about time that CE got a major badass, and he looks to fit the bill very well. | | Call me: W.N. Gobo! originally posted by grim: While he is clearly insane, he does have a point. | |
