Description Finished, flat color lineup of the Hydras Adventuring Party.Β From left to right:
Venetico, the Anthro-Fox arcane trickster rogue. Don't know much about him currently except he uses a buckler and hand crossbow...
Baymax, the Warforged life cleric. Gullible, dim-witted but well-meaning healbot. Frequently exploited for his abilities by Halvanni.
Halvanni Hazen, Tiefling monk. Sly, manipulative charlatan who uses smooth talk and trickery to fuel his drug habit. Also an incorrigible ladies' man.
Zutzo Zallaki, Human warlock. Not much known at the moment, likely to be a comparatively 'normal' guy whose common sense is mostly overshadowed by the insanity around him. Does have a weird sense of dress.
Tor, Anthro-Panther storm sorceror. Takes everything very seriously and is therefore rather dismayed by his companions. Has some bizarre habits.

Looks like an interesting lineup of characters! My favorites here are Baymax and Zutzo. Honestly, I think Baymax's design stands alone enough that if you only changed the name I wouldn't even associate him with BH6 at all. I love the detail of Zutzo accidentally setting his cape on fire (and judging from the other holes, it's not the first time that happened). XD I'm wondering how Tor would look with white, khaki, or pale blue pants instead of the dark brown; it might help make him stand out even more by bringing a bit of contrast to his color scheme.

All in all, I like how they all have enough differences against each other that they really look like their own person (rather than just some a cookie-cutter "team"). Are these characters you just made up, or are they from an actual campaign?

They're from an actual campaign that I started playing in two weeks ago. Lots of fun so far, I assure you.Β 

As far as Baymax' design goes, he emulates the BH6 character more in spirit than in form. Being the party's rather naive but powerful healer and makeshift tank, he's kind of like a medieval, magical version of the modern, movie Baymax. His full name and title is actually Baymetaris Cranioclockus Galvaclasp Steinencorium the 418th of Maxilor (a completely made-up title, by the way), but it's usually shortened to "Baymetaris of Maxilor", or "Baymax."

That does sound like a fun campaign, with such an interesting bunch of characters.

Interesting backstory on his name. I think he is my favorite, in terms of personality, but I've always had a soft spot for the naive healer types. XD Will we be seeing more of them?

Possibly. The campaign continues, so I might sketch out a few of the better moments, like "Baymax for President"
