HammerBro Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 I have put together some figs that I've been wanting to post for a while. I know the picture quality may not be the best, but I am unable to get outside to photograph them as it is snowing where I am. Heres some information to describe the roles of some of the people. Vanguard, the capital city of Vanhorn, sits on a rocky island surrounded by Lake Talon. The River of Rhondurion feeds the lake and is the path that shipping vessels use to get to Vanguard from the open ocean. The docks are able to accommodate up to five different ships due to the importance of import and export in Vanguard’s economy. The Outer Wall flanks the perimeter of the island. About twenty feet tall, the Outer Wall has three gates. They are the Northern, the Southern, and the Western gates. The Western gate is the main entry to the city and is surrounded by the docks, which form the port. It is guarded by two watchmen. There is a large rock protruding from the water rather close to the docks and a watchtower sits on it. There is only one person who mans this tower, and that is the Lake Watcher. I start with some new troops. Tiberius Denmire - Lake Watcher Lynx Oden - Gate Watchman Crux Tranus - Gate Watchman Archers that stand along the Outer Wall with a redesigned Captains' Uniform. Artemis Redd - Captain Ezra Raine Barthos Malone Colin Vorne Kaleb Ploge Seanus Faun Elven Factions The elves in Vanhorn are divided into several factions, which are labeled by color. The Green Faction, led by Eremir Lanthorn. The Red Faction, led by Reagan Lanthorn. The Brown Faction, led by Seraphine Oakin. (Credit to Ecc. for the uniform design.) Villagers of Vanguard Gela Shiloh, a bar owner. Atlas the Strong - Standing at a staggering seven feet three inches tall, Atlas is employed as the blacksmith for Vanguard. He has always been crafty with his hands and built his house on a lone hill on the wooded shores of Lake Talon, nor far from the crop fields. He is also a werewolf who cannot control where or when he changes, this is why he chooses a more solitary lifestyle. Atlas’ house doubles as his workshop and messengers come to deliver new orders from the Council or civilian orders. - Atlas spends his weekends hunting or at Gela’s bar playing cards with his friends. Atlas has had relations with Gela in the past, but both were and are still unwilling to fully commit to each other. Atlas could not put Gela in the danger of living with him and the wolf constantly fighting to surface. They remain good friends and acknowledge that there is something more between them. - The transformations occur at random and with little warning. Once Atlas becomes a wolf, he can no is no longer himself, so he tries to escape to the woods or his house whenever it begins to happen. Just inside the door of his house, there is a massive post that supports the loft section above. Over time, the post has become scratched and clawed at from the wolf. Lucinda Raven - Lucinda works as the private assassin of the Council and is well skilled in carrying out her tasks. She is a half-elf clad in dark brown robes, hides several daggers in her robes, and has a bow strapped to her pack on her horse saddle. Her horse is a black draft stallion named Ridgewood. Lucinda never carries more than three days worth of food, avidly hunting for herself and Ridgewood. Eli Rune, a horse trainer and farrier. Luka Torgon, a milker. Houses of Vanguard House of Sesilion - Lenfel- Chief of Agriculture - Heandil (Son) - Bugler of Vanguard o Lenfel oversees all agricultural affairs in Vanguard. Due to limited space on the island, the majority of the fields sit on the opposite shores of Lake Talon. Heandil, who is roughly fifteen years of age, works as the Bugler of Vanguard. Every morning, he goes around the city playing a melody to wake the people as day breaks. House of Conclan - Wolfar - Vendor - Dale (Brother) - Carpenter o The Conclan Brothers are the sons of the late Councilman, Blade Conclan. Blade died from sickness that he caught during his diplomatic travels to other lands. The remaining Councilmen went about choosing a replacement, as they wanted to keep to the tradition of seven members and a two-thirds vote needed to pass an Ordinance in Vanhorn. The Council didn’t overlook the elven population that had risen considerably in the recent years. They elected myself, Lord Eremir Lanthorn, to the Council so I could represent my race in the political arena. House of Bern - Lord Christopher Bern - Jordana Bern (Wife) - Sebastian Bern (Son) - Regulus Bern (Son) o Christopher is a merchant who has worked his way up to become the wealthiest citizen of Vanguard. He lives with his family in a mansion upon Obtilious Peak, a high, stand-alone piece of rock that juts out from the rest of the city. The highest point in the city is the Tower of Vanguard, which is the focal point of the entire city and is located among the fortifications inside the Inner Wall. And some Kailphlin Traders Crew of a trading vessel from Kaliphlin. Thanks for viewing my new figs! Quote
-Carson Haupt- Posted February 12, 2014 Posted February 12, 2014 I like them! Especially the Kaliphlin Traders and the House of Sesilion. Quote
TheUtilityBelt Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Where did you get Dale 's armor? Quote
Infernum Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Nice! I love the brown and red factions of elves! I love the Kaliphlin traders too! Great work! Quote
HammerBro Posted February 13, 2014 Author Posted February 13, 2014 Where did you get Dale 's armor? It is from an old Knights' Kingdom minifig named Danju. He's possibly the first fig to have dark purple parts and I really like the armor too. Thanks for the comments! Quote
