[2017] Pokemon Self-Portrait

Posted this on the Pokemon subreddit for fun - ended up being moderately popular; I think it was on the front page of Reddit for like 15 minutes or something. Quite literally 15 minutes of fame. People love self-deprecating humor, I guess!

This is a self-portrait of me with my favorite Pokemon. Note that this is in no way a cohesive TEAM of Pokemon, mind you. Just some of my favorites.

[2016] Rosheen, Order of the Ancients Paladin

[Character Status: Level 14. Active as of 06/19.]

Rosheen is a young mountain dwarf. She set out as a gruff little hedonist, running away from home, drinking and philandering her way into the services of Balinor, God of the Hunt. After spending some time in the town of Goldenshore, picking up ownership of a full-fledged restaurant and tap house, and having a minor falling out with her deity, she eventually learned a bit of responsibility. Her spectral steed, simply named “Deer,” has always been her faithful companion.

She’s a stalwart guardian now, willing to go out of her way to do the right thing, and protect hearth and home. But, she still fancies a pint and a shag now and again…

[2015 - 2016] Custom Commander Labels (MTG)

Back when I was expanding my Commander deck collection, I wanted to make custom labels for all of my commanders that didn’t have foil printings.

From left to right:

  • Gahiji, Honored One - Group-slug and tokens. I wrote a primer on this one (linked in name) that received some middling success. It’s all about playing politics and causing chaos!

  • Nin, the Pain Artist - Artifact combo. Theme is “shiny and chrome” - no brown-bordered artifacts allowed, and as many foils as my wallet can muster.

  • Skullbriar, the Walking Grave - Voltron and +1/+1 counter shenanigans. Retired this deck fairly recently; I have a Pir and Toothy +1/+1 counter deck now, and I’m building a Hapatra deck to take that empty Golgari slot.

  • Karlov of the Ghost Council - Pimped-out foil deck. Lifegain theme (obviously). Put a lot of love and attention into this deck… as well as a fair chunk of change. Pretty fitting for Orzhov.
