This obsidian spear is the typical weapon of the giths; It's seems that this weapon, not only is able to cause piercing damage also slashing damage....

               Rolo, if you're so darn sure the forty foot behemoth won't feel anything, YOU go trying to carve lumps out of it when its back's turned...

OK, I'm starting on the War Mekillot, somewhat similar to the Ghurra Cavalry Steeds above... It will have banners... This is YOUR chance to VOTE on a PHoD Animal! (How very unthrilling).

Is there any particular Athasian insignia, emblem, etc, that I should put on the banners? If nobody has any great preference and I fail to find any suitable Dark Sun banner reference, I'll just do some sort of generic, fantasy war banner kind've thing... and resist at all costs the urge to draw Comedy Hyenas on them!

               @PLUSH HYENA of DOOM:
I don't Know any particular DS banner, sorry. However here is the only DS picture which some color banners, That I have found.



Probably the wemic?? in the picture is caused by a mistake of the artist; because there is no wemics now a days in Athas. Also his full metalic armor don't fit well with the DS universe....


Anyway  if you Don't like this kind of banners, please feel free to use any banner that you consider suitable....

A Gith Shaman, or maybe a chieftain, Probably both of them...

               There are no official images of the flags, but I know someone who's made some custom ones if you want those?

Including a random French guy who's made ones for the merchant houses

               Jenna:- That top IS on the Vault...
Go looking in "Modules" for the ABC Challenges that Henesua organized and seek out "PHoD - The Black Book" or (as it's a FAR better Module) "PHoD - The Silver Sphere". Though CC was strictly limited, Starbright had to have her silly little top, so it's in the Hak somewhere. Just poke about between the Undead Animals and you'll find it.

Shem:- Thanks for the image. From what can be seen, there's a different sigil on each banner, but if there's no particular official Dark Sun set of flags then I'll use these as a starting point, since there are Mekillots in the picture too... Though the image does make me wonder...
"...Even as Kandu let off his firecracker, he realized his mistake - three seconds later the Mekillots were trampling through the cheering crowd, squashing hundreds underfoot and eating several important city officials..."

Mecheon:- Are they nice? Are they good? Put a link of some sort and I'll have a look at them.

AAA-HHAAAAA! I was right all along! YOU DO GET MOUNTED MEKILLOTS! See! Look at the Obvious Houda Thing WITH RIDERS on top of that Mekillot! Glorious Justification is mine! Mine, All Mine! Complete vindication of my Mekillotular Theories!!! I was right! Foam, froth!
NOTHING IN THE WORLD CAN STOP ME NOW!

They are!

If you use these, please credit ManMythLegend cause he made 'em and generously gave them out to whoever's use.

Lemme know if you want the merchant house ones as well

               Thanks for the link, Mecheon...
Hm. All completely the wrong shape for the Mekillot banners, with the exception of Nibenay, so it's either that one or the one in the MOUNTED Mekillot image above that looks a bit like a sort of ornate capital 'A' (in front of the more distant Mekillot).
I might use that latter one as it's less specific, rather than limiting builders to having Mekillots only from a single city.
That said... I like the Nibenay one...

PS:- I'll forgive the artist for the Wemic and his metal armour, Shem, because he painted MOUNTED Mekillots and those Jhakar are not too far off my rubbish version either.

               No sweat. Don't think Nibenay is the type to have Mekillots though unfortunately

Course, if someone else wants to make some banners out of 'em, hint hint

Bone and obsidian daggers, made from my previous work; Dedicated to Draygoth28. Maybe the bone dagger, also could be use as a Kris knife in a DUNE module.....

The Bard’s friend: Is a weapon popularized by the bards of Balic, this weapon sports several blades and prongs. Bards normally coat the blades with poison; The nature of the weapon makes it easy to poison....
