Space 2021 - A Star Saga
5.1 - Hund, the Rin Bounty Hunter
You can either walk outta here or be carried. I get paid the same either way.
The miniatures from the Star Saga character creator were sat on my desk, staring at me, for pretty much all of 2022. With all of the basic sets and expansions painted I had moved on to other things. But I couldn’t stop looking at them and playing a game of Star Saga last weekend, which I am fairly sure is the Start of a campaign, well it inspired me to pick them up again. The character creation pack is where I think Star Saga really starts to come into its own because it has six new playable characters, none of which are human. In fact most of them are barely humanoid. There’s a turtle, a worm, two robots and an Orc in a stealth suit. And then there’s Hund, the Bounty Hunter.
Hund is a Rin, a six limbed alien with a reptilian appearance. There are some Rin in the Devil’s Betrayal expansion and this model is a resculpt of an old Deadzone Miniature. Incidentally there is a different character card for the Deadzone version of Hund. I quite like the art for this, it has some vaguely star wars-esque vibes, like he could be a denizen of somewhere like Mos Eisely. I am also reasonably certain that the name is not entirely accidental.
As always I just copied the artwork as far as possible. I think the only noticeable exception was that the artwork didn’t have those rather fetching Vin Diesel Pitch Black style shades.
