Well, I think that might be going a bit far - a post should be enough. Bob's thanks go to Clockwork Lizard http://www.lustria-online.com/threads/from-the-depths-of-the-clockwork-jungle.10882/ for providing the catalyst for what follows. DISCLAIMER - if anything below causes anything other than amusement or badly clashes with your world view, personal message Bob and he will remove, or alter to your specifications any offending material ASAP. That got your attention...... Anyhow, Bob has friends (Yes Qupakoco, some are real) and Bob has decided to let his friends see how he pictures them when he is reading their mystic glyphs. These mental images are based tenuously on names or other attributes. Perhaps it is better if I just demonstrate. Clockwork Lizard Son of Bob suggested that there should be a hole of some kind. Oh, the innocence of youth. Scalenex Scalenex self selected his own image with his dangerous obsession with the undead http://www.lustria-online.com/threa...ney-to-lustria-storm-of-magic-backstory.9750/ and http://www.lustria-online.com/threads/scalenexs-paint-log-and-fluff-piece-index.10274/ Old Mossy Easy and recycled image T'hinker'er Cheap, and apologies to Auguste Rodin. Sticking with the Slann-in-bathroom theme: Newscales Sorry about that. Option B was a Gangsta Rapper Lizardman. I don't know why. n810 - caused some hassles. What do you do with numbers? Obvious really. (True story: First time around, I misspelled "Lizardmen" in the picture and had to repost it) Arli You will now forever be Cap'n Aaaaarli in my heart. For those who don't know it, the old joke goes: Q- Where does a pirate captain keep his buccaneers? A- On either side of his buccan head. Caprasauridae I'm pretty sure it is spelt "Coprosauridae". I've been meaning to correct you for a while. (Please PM me buddy, tell me its OK. I can do up a nice Viking one for you instead) Qupakoco There could be only one image for you. Good luck with the night fighting. As I said: anything you would prefer to forget will disappear if you let me know. Or if you prefer, contact a moderator to get me hung up by my......wait, do Lizardmen have testicles? Fluff anyone?

Should have given him "Always Strikes Frist" I guess you said Always ASF. That means Always always strike's first so that's kind of a typo. Like saying "where is the ATM machine?" EDIT: Perhaps I can put Bob's picture in my signature or failing that Avatar on the Carpe Noctern forum (not that I post there much but my signature says "Fear the Skink zombies!"

Fun and amusing across the board. I think I would prefer a gangster rapper lizard, but I like the pun on the scales part. Not sure how to pun scales into a rapper meme tho. Great stuff Bob!
Boy, was I surprised to find myself in there along with the legends of Lustria Onlne! Thanks Bob, you made me blush! Oh, and no, there has been no spelling mistake in my username. It is a sort-of-pun from my last name. It means goat in Italian, by the way, if you happened to need any ammo...
Ah, Thanks Caprasauridae. Goats are cool. I see a Beastman / Lizardmen alliance coming up (standard of drawing - desperate) Just in case the joke I above did was too subtle, try typing "copro" into google and see what you get..... "Crapasauridae" (which is probably how N810 spells your name) would have done the job too, but that would make Bob seem to be a potty humour advocate rather than an intellectual.
Beastlizardmen actually sound really cool! And yeah, I knew the meaning already, but probably wouldn't had made the connection (pun mastery level: not sufficient enough) without the descriptive text. Thanks for all the joy you bring to this forum, Bob!
Yes, it's true, I do some of my best t'hinkering on the John And the resemblance is uncanny (too far?)
hahaha, how have I missed this up until now? My favourite has to be stonecutter's. "These sculptures are an unrealistic depiction of lizards."
Should I mention that my name has nothing to do with being a great thinker (which I am surely not), but is rather a play on the word "tinker" ? tin·ker Noun (esp. in former times) A person who travels from place to place mending pans, kettles, and other metal utensils as a way of making a living. Verb Attempt to repair or improve something in a casual or desultory way, often to no useful effect. Synonyms noun. tinsmith verb. mend
