More thugs today. These pictures might need some work, you can crop the pictures or you can print them out and use the diffent guys as markers. 

Inspiring none the less. 

biker guys

More thugs this time more generic

Even more these guys can be rioters or other type of organized thugs

Drug lab guards

Thats all for now.

The charges got cleared Cygnia. 

Lets be honest here we are afraid they are going to make the Joker out to be a tragic anti hero rather than the entertaining but monstrous villain we love to hate.

It started with the Ledger Joker, he was intense and dangerous so the character became popular and instead of admiring to themselves that they like a character because he is evil and powerful different fans tried to find something of philosophical value in the Joker. 

Lets hope that the powers that be at Warner bros dont fall into the same trap that fan fiction writers does and keep him the evil clown prince of crime.

Zack Snyder. 

I hate those videos so much! 

Hhaaaaaattteeeee..

Especially when you go into a wiki to look for info on something else and an irrelevant youtube video about something else in the same franchise pops up and starts playing without being clicked on. 

Its swindling youtube and google out of advertising money since it counts in their algorithms as a view and they pay the owners of the video out from that. 

Swindle! Annoying! CRAP! Get rid off them close it all down! 

It does not matter if a character is smug or confident or insecure or afraid. What matter is if its done well in the movie. Its all subjective. 

I think lot of the apprehension against Cpt Marvel comes from people thinking she will fly into Avengers Endgame as a deus ex machina and one shot Thanos while all the other heroes the fans have grown to love over ten years stand by twiddling their thumbs. 

I really doubt that. I am very sure that it will be a cooperative effort from all involved and each one will be an important part of the final victory. 

I am a skeleton!

Today we are going to focus on costumed characters. 

Badass assassin looking dude.

Another guy in the same vein except he is his heavier armoured. 

Though looking guy

High tech ninja

Bit future looking but actually just Asian. The background houses are reminding me of a Hong Kong block that got tore down in the 70's.

That is all for today.

Hmm when I entered to post on Evil Libary This appred in my writing box?

Looks like pirates vs ninjas?

Low: Skull river trading company has been terrorizing the river cities for years. The river cites already struggle to make an living in the post apocalyptic landscape and the jolly roger bearing motor boats of the Skull river trading company makes it much worse. Not only do they hold society back by having a strangle hold on all trade by heavy and unpredictable taxation of all who use the river. They also rob and kill other traders when the mood strikes them and even raid and pillage villages during lean times. One day an old Asian woman comes into the village and tells the pc's that she can teach them how to fight while being few against many. Teach them how to enter their enemies holdings without being seen, teach them to kill without making sound and teach them how to fade into the night before the pirates can mount a counterattack. 

If someone ask her why she does this she simply answer: "They are my enemies."

Medium: Admiral Redthorne have been not having many successes against the Virulans fleet lately, while also pirates have become a real problem for the empire, no longer a far off threat in shadowed waters they ply common trade routes and are cutting into Imperial profits. Strangely at court the admiral seem nonplussed at the criticism that is levied his way. The pc's are called to meet with "courier" Barb in a small independent city. She tells them the shocking truth! Admiral Redthorne have gone pirate and worse he is keeping all the booty for himself! She got proof of this but she needs protection from the pirates as she makes her way towards the Empire. Complicating things are that the Virulians know of the situation and have dispatched several of they ninjas to gain hold of this proof themselves. The pirates and ninjas will off course attack eachoter on sight as neither wants the other side to have the evidence and the players must protect "Courier" Barb, fight off pirates and ninjas and make sure no innocents are harmed in the crossfire when ninjas and pirates clash.

If you want to complicate things Barb can be the admirals daughter and the whole thing was just a ruse to draw out some of the most efficient assassins in the Virualian army. 

High: The great heroes failed their quest and the ultimate warlock evil curse have altered the world.

The sun itself have turned evil and he sends down his light pirates to burn the land, turning soil into sand, fields into wastelands and rivers into nothing. Only the ultimate warlock city of basalt is spared and only those who swear fealty to him are allowed to endlessly toil in the dwindling soil under his shadow.

The only force that can stand against the evil light of the ultimate warlock and the sinister sun is the night ninjas! Fighting to cool down the burned, shade the overheated and protect the world from sinister sun the ninjas of mother night must find a way to navigate the world they have been banished from. They are willing to merge with the pc's and lend them their awesome night ninja powers! But first the pc's most prove their worth..

Anyway on with Evil Library.

Low: On the bad end of town an religious fanatic guards a library over the towns unwed mothers, orphans and other people that are defenseless and at risk. The books in the library not only chronicles their lives but also the best way to attack and rob the unlucky targets. Nobody knows who writes those book and how they appear in the library but the religious fanatics that guards it claims that they are the gift of the "gods of justice". In their warped and evil views the people that suffer tragedies and unluck deserve it because of some kind of inherent sin and the righteous are morally in the right to attack them and add to the unfortunates suffering. Little more than gleeful vultures and bully boys these cretins might lack the courage to attack the evil library themselves but they willingly inform and help those that do. 

Medium: In the dark dismal swamp stands an old crumbling monastery. Its decrepit shelves holds scrolls and books with old wisdom and spells and the creepy librarian lets travelers lend books for a small fee, she is not worried that books will not be returned. Anyone who does not return the books in time are cursed. 

The librarian is just a manifestation of the evil that have grown in this monastery that were once dedicated to an evil god. The building itself is an evil entity and its power is dependent on the souls that die in the swamp traveling to the monastery . It can control the swamp, changing the paths making safe ones unsafe and unsafe ones safe. It uses this power to confuse visitors. 

High: On the outer plains of dust and ash there stands an humongous castle it got no windows and it is so tall that its not possible to see the roof from the ground but it looks to be another building of some sort on the top of it. 

Even getting to the bleak halls library is difficult the dust and ash plains have never been mapped and the whole place is on the edge of the world, some say that if you travel further you will go to the hells or some other abyssal depth. Even if you can get there you will still have to get inside the building that have no windows or doors. Yelling at house or attacking the walls might bring a dark hooded being out to look down on the party from the top of the building but it will quickly disapear as the walls of this place can not be hurt by any mortal agency. 

The only way in is the small bastion on top, guarded by hell knights and spell casting demons you better make sure you got your library card in order and up to date! 

The inner library is cloaked in eternal darkness and the shelves are made of solid iron that harms anyone non evil touching it. The books themselves are all filled with dark spells and evil techniques only usable by the most dark hearted individuals and is actually meant for demons, devils, undead and other supernatural evil creatures. A mortal character no matter how powerful must be on his guard against sudden attacks by the librarian maw beasts all the time they are here. Even so they still have to adhere to the rules or the library. Otherwise the evil demigod that have created this place will come for you. Do not be late on your returns!

I tried searching for reviews but all I can find are tweets? How can they have showing for so many people but not a single review among them? 

Is this the future. No reviews just tweets, endless tweets, tweets as far the eye can see..

I'm confused. I just re-watched the posted cartoon, which is using dialogue from the original movies, and doesn't deviate materially from the source material (other than a few expressions in the animation). What am I supposed to be upset about? 

Its about how they make Luke look like a loser. Chewie too but he only get a boot to the ass rather than being shown as an incompetent imbecile like Luke. 

We talking the new stuff and the rewrites here Old Man not the originals. 

They go out of their way to make Luke look like a loser.

Even though he has been well and truly character assassinated they still keep kicking his corpse. 

You can have immigration even if you are not in the EU..

You have to roll dem bones..

Wanna fight?

Today I show some street fighters, maybe the charactes have to fight someone to pay off someones dept or maybe they gotta prove themselves to some group and/or they are infiltrating an illegal fighting ring. 

Off course you can also throw a captured PC into some fights to give yourself an exuse to not kill them and give them a chance to escape. 

This guy might be a bit to overdone and mma like.

Here we got a Russian enforcer maybe?

An evil promoter or other buisniss type.. 

A guy who are not afraid of cheating a bit. 

Many uses for this guy.

An inept guard. A necessary position for any "forced to fight" adventure. 

Here is a prime example of the problem I discussed earlier with Bubba Smith.

Hmm his expression makes him look a bit like a madman otherwise he would have looked like a holy man.

He is the Lex Luthor of the fighting pits!

Get ready.

Final boss and/serial killer?

Thats all for today.

Because I wanted to find characters that looks like they are fun to fight and kill. Not to characters that players would want to be friends with. But as you can see that its almost impossible! 

And I slip up myself all the time. Good thing I called the threat Cool characters for your games and not enemies for your games. 

Yeah thats a problem but they can work as villians as well. Cool villians but still.

Time to post some more pictures I found on the net.

Some freelance agents today. Mercs and such.. 

Cool helmet that does not look too futuristic. Could work as an elite assassin or mercenary type of guy.

This one could be used in many scenarios.

Really fun costume here, apparently its for paintball but the name and look makes it perfect for a Dark Champions enemy! Or character..

From one style to another, here is a crazy soldier. Could be an viglante gone over the edge maybe?

Heavy gunner in grey.

Cool hood look.

Another cool guy in hood.

Thats all for today. Thanks again to Storn for sharing his awesome self made art with us.

I never felt that good old dnd was more dangerous to the pc's than the newer editions. 

The monsters hit more often having the best to hit chance in the game but on the other hand they most often do less damage, they dont have rules for critting and they dont add strength or other bonuses to the damage roll. Making it way easier to estimate how much damage the monster will do. Combat in the old editions might be more predictable and boring though depending on your taste. 

In any case Hero is much easier to figure out chances especially if you dont use hit locations.
