John Blanche Illustrations From The Sorcery Spell Book
Our regular gaming nights currently involve a romp over the Shamutanti Hills as GM Andy guides his semi-competent players in typical semi-tolerant fashion (we do test his patience...). To aid my sorcerer, Andy handed me a copy of the Sorcery Spell Book during our last session. Not only did it help me sift through all the spells, it also gave me the chance to snap a few photos of the John Blanche illustrations within. Here are a few of my favourites...
Cool, I'm going to try and guess which spells go with the pictures.
ReplyDelete1. WEE: Make a hairy enemy need a wee. Ingredient: Some wee.
2. ZOM: Raise undead dragon. Ingredient: A dead dragon.
3. BEE: Summon bee from far away. Ingredient: A stick.
4. FUZ: Cause excessive hair growth on oneself that alarms goblins. Ingredient: A comb.
5. FOZ: Cause excessive hair growth on oneself that beguiles rodents. Ingredient: Some cheese.
6. HUH: You may flick forward to check the next path before you officially choose it and thus make it real. Ingredient: A forefinger.
Am I close?
Spot on :-) I particularly like the idea of beguiling rodents!
ReplyDeleteYou never know when having a little ratty friend could be the difference between a 'Turn to paragraph 400' moment and the dreaded 'Your adventure ends here'.
DeleteThey are cool pictures by the way.
