Rangers of Shadow Deep - Solo play project
Otto the recruit.
Almost ready to play the lower tower mission. Just painting up some archery butts and weapon racks and I think I can call that ready.
The torture pieces in the background are from my Mantic Games Terrain Crate.
OTTO
Otto is made from an Oathmark Human body and arms with a Warlord Games German metal head and a Gripping Beast Viking scabbard.
Painted in the same style as the Man-at-arms made and painted earlier in the week.
The idea is that while they dodged the patrols on the way to the tower they found Otto up a tree. The young man wanted to fight his way back in there. But with everyone dead or having fled he just watched and logged the movements around the tower; hoping to be useful to whatever force arrived to retake the tower. Archibald says that sadly there would be no company of ‘heroes’ coming. That he and his companions were all that were coming and to make his report. His Intel helped them negotiate the patrols more easily and Archibald felt that after his companions had been lucky not to have suffered serious injury at the bridge that perhaps another sword might be worth having. In the confines of room to room fighting another blade might make all the difference. Green but eager, Otto would now share their fate as a companion of Archibald the Grim.
