(Pretty sure you'd have to have a beardless female dwarf, never get a beard by on a woman in Hollywood).<br /><br />The dwarf doesn't have to be a "sexy" character; you could go for a more mature look, and have her take the young, naive, hot thief under her wing.<br /><br />It's tempting to say that the elf might be gay (thus making another demographic happy) but that may be too much of a stereotype.Chris Gonnermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09491320279165054124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5377543525075660166.post-14829494661566229462016-06-28T17:27:22.468-04:002016-06-28T17:27:22.468-04:00In so far as recruiting the rest of the party, a &...In so far as recruiting the rest of the party, a "Dirty Dozen" 'esque nod towards introducing the rest of the crew via their past exploits could be nice.

This varies from a lighter, almost copper shade to a very dark tone which is the deepest brown."<br /><br />The Flanaess is much more diverse, as it were, than some artists have allowed over the last few decades. While there is a nearly pure Flan population in Tenh, there is a strong Flannish strain in Sterich, Geoff, and the County of Ulek, so it's not like dark skin is uncommon at all. I've long felt that this fact should be more publicized in relation to Greyhawk.faoladhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03691952430041394614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5377543525075660166.post-15923562757813050842015-08-05T12:43:32.313-04:002015-08-05T12:43:32.313-04:00I'd watch that.
