redambrosia Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 I've got this lion guy, don't remember where I got him. Help me out? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Jim Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 (edited) I thought that looked like a Litorian from Monte Cook's Arcana Unearthed, but I don't see that particular mini on Iron Wind Metals webstore. The lost minis wiki only lists 6 Litorians and that's how many IWM has. EDIT: I don't think it's from Black Orc Games line of cat people either as I think all of them were single piece castings.

VitM Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 I have that Rakshasa! Unfortunately, I don't remember where I got him either. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would help if there was a makers mark on him. Tell me, does yours have his hand on backwards? The left arm, which isn't attached in the photos, is holding a mask, but the hand is oriented as a right hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traditionally one of the ways of recognizing a Rakshasa is by its backwards hands. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My kitty cat has her (annoying, sharply clawed) thumbs on the inside. Well, what passes for thumbs on cats anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rakshas are a real mythological thing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rakshasa Edited October 24, 2017 by Pingo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
