What are igashos supposed to look like? I'm thinking sasquatch but the website art really throws me for a loop.

Not exactly sure. Try looking at some of the igasho denizens? The way they are described in the race description definitely seems a bit at-odds with the website art. In regards to that, I think the issue there was if she'd been completely covered in shaggy fur, there would be no way to have her breasts and thighs exposed. dry.gif

For me, it's the fur bra that's just... Whaaa? huh.gif

Igasho = Bigfoot. happy.gif

I'm more worried about the bit coming out of her loincloth, but that's neither here nor there. At least she has something covering her. The lucidian is just downright no-two-ways-about-it topless.

Yeah, they've said before that the race art artist really likes busty women, if you get my drift. He also did the race art for Midkemia, and their eledhel pic is... well. If I swung that way, I'd be in my bunk. As it is I have the moral high ground and get to sniff primly or something like that.

Yeah, I see her every time I go to the Iron Realms site to check my messages and such. As an added note: I do swing that way, and I think she just looks ridiculous. laugh.gif

Well, you're the expert, I suppose. (She does look rather odd, now that you mention it.)

You do, eh? smirk.gif

She is definitely not how i pictured Eledhel while reading the books, way to "goth"..
and the Moredhel art could stand to be a bit more sinister lookin too.

Just sayin...

It has nothing to do with like and dislike, it's pure science and evolution. Obviously, with the complicated history of Lusternia there were many instances of cities being hit by the Soulless, sending entire populations on the run. This meant that it would be an evolutionary advantage to have larger breasts so females could store more milk at once, meaning that they could more easily keep their infants fed while on the run.

As you see, it's not about the artist's preferences but about Estarra's very established and sophisticated evoltutionary theories.

Plus have you read character descriptions lately? Perky breasts are the thang.

Tae'dae, Aslaran, Loboshigaru and Furrikin should not have pronounced mammaries. They're intelligent animals on two legs. Not furries.

Trill are also (kinda) birds, mugwumps amphibians, dracnari reptiles, lucidian are flipping rocks...most of the races in this game shouldn't have mammaries at all. And yet, everyone under the sun has big honkin'...yeah. There's no escaping it.

You guys are all forgetting that this is a fantasy world, and some concepts in the real world just do not apply! biggrin.gif Besides, they're humanoid, all the Gods were more or less designed in a certain way with certain things in mind by Dynara, she could very well have preferred bigger globs of flesh there.

I know but argh blagh rant rant.

It is just mildly offensive to me that every single woman ever has to be depicted with gigantic hooters and exposed thighs in every picture. Especially when it's things like frog and lizard people, just, come on.

On the contrary, I tend to make my female characters fugly and deformed.

What are the messages for 1. When you're being teleported to. and 2. When you're being summoned by someone.

You feel a strong tug within your chest and the air comes alive with swirling, multicoloured light.
You feel a slight tug within your chest and the air around you sparkles with motes of bright light.
You stumble as you feel invisible strands of force wrap around you, followed by a high-pitched thrum.
