New Mutant Monday Series Two #23 - Bullion

bullion.jpg

This creature is yet another chimera which can be found in the wastelands. There are plenty who believe the Chimerian faction is responsible for the beasts’ creation, but they steadfastly deny it, although they do often admit they wish they had thought of it first. The creature could very well be the result of random mutation, although it does seem rather unlikely.

It has yet to be determined if the creature is in fact Bovine and mutated to take on aspect of the Panthera Leo, AKA the Lion, or if it is a lion who has taken on aspects of the Bovine. One aspect which everyone can agree upon is the creature is large, usually larger than the typical bull, weighing in around 800 pounds and standing around six feet in height at the shoulder. The body is muscular and instead of hooves, the legs end in three sharp talons, both on the front and the rear. The head still retains some of the Bovine shape and structure, but now possesses the eyes set to the side, and a mouth full of sharp, tearing teeth. And there are the two foot long, pointed horns.

As the attention of most of us in the tabletop hobby is focused on the big gaming convention, Origins in Columbus, Ohio. The rest of us gamers, especially in the Greater Houston area is gearing up for Comicpalooza. I am so pleased that this convention is really making an effort to build up the tabletop division. Comicpalooza gives us gamers panels and lots of space for what we love most – gaming! In times past, a good majority of local game shops are in attendance in the vendor area and I expect the same this year. I know my wallet will be in danger, because I can’t go to an event like this without buying something or something(s) as is usually the case.

As I am very active in the local gaming scene, I am looking forward to seeing friends and acquaintances I’ve met at various Meetup groups. I also look forward to making new acquaintances as is usually the case because gamers like to meet and get to know other gamers. My excitement is building each day as Comicpalooza is fast approaching. For those of you who are new to the gaming scene, this event is the perfect opportunity to experience new games and meet others who share your passion for games.

I am excited to see what surprises are in store for the first d-Infinity Independent Game Awards. I am always on the lookout for games that work well with families because gaming is a family affair for me and my family. Although, my wife and children may not love it as much as I, they are still always up for a good game, which has become a way for us to spend time together as a family.

While at the “con”, I hope to catch a few of the panels and maybe, just maybe get a chance to play a session of Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition. I am totally excited about that.

So, I hope you are gearing up for a fun and exciting experience this year and I know I will see many of you there.
