I pledge to continue of my super secret secret squirrel project that only myself and a choice cabal of the elite chosen know of.

Favorite quest movie? You really know how to make this difficult. This is a film trope that really pulls at what I look for in film. I’ll give a trifecta for this race.

• Suckerpunch
• The Adventures of Baron Munchausen
• The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus

Honorable mentions

• Monty Python and the Holy Grail
• The City of Lost Children
• Dark City
• Circle of Iron
• The Ewok Adventure” (yes, quite a departure from the rest).

Race is human… and make a character….hmm. Can I start over on this? If we’re picking RPGs that’s easy as Changleing: The Lost wins. Perhaps “The Dark Crystal” might work if we worked with non-humans. Augh! The quest genre is quite vast as it is to achieve some task. The first six Star Wars films did well to round out a quest arc and offered variety in character customization.

I’ll plumb the depths of analysis and putter around my head to answer some more later.

As far as cool stuff, I’ve ordered a small cache of bits to start assembling more display ork warbosses. I’ve fallen into the trap of kitbashing GW stuff and the orks are a great lot for it as you can be as ridiculous as you want to be. The more over the top with details and seemingly non-related elements the better it probably will be. That reminds me of the similar aesthetic in the Tank Girl comics.

I have also found that the Secret Weapon pigments are doing a very nice job of weathering the skeletal knight I’m working on right now.Its always good to find you’re having fun again after you’ve come to dread going back to a figure.

@limburger As I think about it, with 11Nov 12 hrs away in my timezone, technically speaking you could probably look at most war films being quests all their own. As far as the Ork codex I think this might help before dropping the money. Each one is  about an hour long.
