Owlbear
My third #Inktober drawing is a #DungeonWorld owlbear.
The owlbear is one of my all time favorite monsters dating all the way back to my first encounters with Dungeons and Dragons in the back of a carpool van being shuttled with some older kids to various activities after school. I remember the party of the boy scouts that played in the back of the van being chased into, and recklessly through, a dungeon by an owlbear with rabies. It left an impression, to say the least. The owlbear is such a weird creature, both mesmerizing in its oddity and terrifying in its power.
I hope you like my attempt at drawing it.
I’m participating in #Inktober this year leading up to the annual 24 hour #ExtraLife game marathon that I have been running in late October with my wife for the last five years. I’m going to draw monsters, weapons, and magic items from the #DungeonWorld rulebook and from the Dungeon World Codex (http://codex.dungeon-world.com).
If you like the drawings and would like to support me in Extra Life this year, you can donate to my campaign at http://www.extra-life.org/participant/jimjones.
You have my sincere appreciation if you do.
All the money that I raise goes directly to Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis, Indiana. My youngest daughter, Rogue, had a life saving cranial reconstruction surgery at Riley when she was just a little over one year old. Today, she is a happy and healthy almost six year old who is thriving in kindergarten.
Let me know what you think.
