I think the Gnome should look like a zombie.

I had some problems with the hair and the clean look, so Osric underwent some slight changes.

Image
The "new" Osric Bonetinker.

Right now, I see him as a faithful servant and a classic zombie as well.
Slow, moaning, passive.

Or should he be more like a "real" character?

I used to play with a guy who's toon, a blood elf priest, was named "Rorán".
Maybe that's why I didn't like the name at first.

But you are right, it fits.

On the other hand, it's a bit to much. I'm a role player and I like "realistic" fantasy names, so Kyrth, which could be the ancient form of Curt, did sound kind of right to me. The family name "Lionsong" could be coming from an ancestor who used to roar and shout while fighting and was brave as a lion. As the character was a human, I thought it more likely.

In the end, choosing a name will be a matter of personal taste. And I simply like Kyrth better.

I think you can play the zombie gnome either way and have it work. Usually, gnomes are portrayed as chatterboxes, so a quieter one might be funnier! Also, a quiet sidekick means the hero can be more verbose. :)

The human warrior looks like a captain to me. Captain Melba Clearwater or something. :D

Clearwater was the first name I had in mind for the Paladin. So why not? ;)

I rather enjoy playing around with MV right now.

HEE, it's a sign! :D

Having a drunken dwarf walking around is too cliche....but how about a bard-like one? :D

Nice idea, but a bard would need an instrument.

Hmmm....
So I took a nicely dressed dwarf...
Image

...added a strange looking axe...

...and got me an epic red bard! :lol:

Nice, but I'd try to go for a more spellbreaker sort of look.

Somehow, your image isn't showing for me. Now it shows.
But I got the link when I quoted your post.

That really is some cool look but wouldn't fit a blood knight. It's more like a general or something.
At least, it is for my taste. Let me see if I can do that in MV...

Edit: Damn! I was just choosing the weapon when MV crashed... I'm not gonna do that again now.
Maybe tomorrow.

Edit 2: I was kind of bored... :lol:

Image

There are so many items to be used but nothing to fit your picture, Saturo.
