Does anyone have some young, super scarred dudes?

Like Darth Sion or something, people who aren't missing a limb but look like they got shoved through a meat grinder or something, but aren't like 80 year old grandpeople with a live of scars as much as a younger looking dude who got put through the wringer early in life or something.

Really digging that Beholder series. I'm going to play Gnome7's Winter Mage in an upcoming game of Dungeon World where we're all Fantasy Detectives. Can I get some ice/snow/winter-themed wizards & witches? Ideally looking haughty or emotionally distant.

If they're anything like Hite's fantastic Suppresed Transmission series, they probably cover the real history, the fake history, then present an alternate history with campaign seed potential. I'd like to highly recommend as required that book as reading for modern-day conspiracy/horror, historical, and alternate history settings.

I gotta get around to Fatal & Friendsing this thing some time.

Please, do! Suppressed Transmissions was always the highlight of my Pyramid subscription, and I grabbed those books as soon as they hit the shelves. They solidified Hite's place among my all-time favourite gaming-related authors.

I want to see your final bosses. The huge smug dudes who stand cross-armed at the back of the fight, not getting in the fray because they don't get their hands dirty (but when they do, something is going to die). Your M. Bisons, your Shao Khans.

Sorta works, but unfortunately doesn't have that level of Gnollitude I'm looking for. Shaggy black mohawk and more of a wiry build are preferred.

Dudes are better but chicks are fine if you have some good ones. I'm interested in some good scar patterns to use for a character description.

His name is Funny Valentine. His goal is to collect the buried dismembered body parts of Jesus Christ scattered across the United States so he can attain stronger superpowers and be the best president ever.

Yeah, the scars get brought up once and aren't ever hyped. They don't come off as cartoonish that way.

In fact, I wanted to find some scar patterns from American comics, but it's basically all literal Frankensteins or sweet looking X-marks that don't ugly the guy up any.

I think I need more pictures of tiny people. Not so much the Borrowers; just tiny people living in a world much larger than them. If there are signs of relatively giant-sized people preferably it'd be like, "long ago there were giants" type stuff. Does that make sense?
