D&D5e character: Aedan Comarren

Annette ran a campaign for a while, which I hope we'll get back to some time, in which the party was made up of a family of quadtuplets, born of chiefly parents in mysteriously magical circumstances. By the agency of a dastardly wizard (who came to a bad end eventually) the four Comarren children were whisked away to the ends of the earth, and we had to (a) escape his magical bonds, (b) cut out his gizzards, and (c) find our way back home, all of which we managed to do.

When the campaign went into hiatus, we were off looking for our mother who had been abducted by some sort of toad-demon thing.

The four kids, in order of age, are Aedan (me), Conoran (Steve), Uther (Andrew), and Ethel (Clare).

My character, Aedan, is a stunningly beautiful youth who has been cosseted and indulged all his life, and is therefore blithely and innocently self-entitled. Plus, being the eldest (if only by a matter of minutes) is the primary heir to the chieftainship, and naturally expects all his siblings to look after him and defer to his wishes. To his credit, he's generous and loyal, and treats his eminence purely as a fact of nature, and not in any way a matter of personal virtue. It's just the way things are.

His character class is Barbarian, but he's by no means a bulging-thewed Conanesque brawler. In fact his strength is no better than average. However, his dexterity is exceptional, as is his constitution, and most importantly, his charisma. 

He's fun to play.


I created a miniature for Aedan in HeroForge, and at this moment of writing, it's on my printer, hopefully taking physical form.

Finding a non-musclebound male model barbarian figure ready-made turned out to be impossible, so HeroForge was my best option. It's a bit expensive, but hey-ho. The STL cost about the same, or a little bit more, than a metal figure from Reaper or the like, and of course I have to print it myself.


And this is it, printed and painted. I forgot that I'm terrible at painting naked flesh. Plus, I notice that he's got green paint on his hand, which is a nuisance.
