Short Willy and Nimbleroot the Unfortunate is a pair of adventurers currently working for Konstipah Ted in his endeavours to clean out the dungeons below Nost-Óul Towers. For some reason, these guys just can’t seem to catch a break – but they are always lucky enough to escape with their lives intact. Most recently, they had a run in with old Fatgit Rumblegut.
The miniatures were painted early 2012, for the first round of the LPL. I haven’t gotten around to posting these profiles until now though. There are no lengthy bios for these guys, as they are minor characters. I think their names, profiles and looks speak for themselves. Willy is a Perry twins dwarf (Citadel) while Nimbleroot is a wood elf wardancer by Jes Goodwin (also Citadel).
Short Willy – Dwarf Warrior (26 pts) Quality 3+, Combat 3. Coward.

The shield is sort of a stylized dwarf face, but Willy (being Willy) is holding it upside down so instead of a beard it turned into an afro. It didn’t turn out very well, I’m afraid.
Nimbleroot the Unfortunate – Elf Thief (33 pts) Quality 2+, Combat 3. Stealth, Blundering.
A new special rule for Nimbleroot. I’m hoping it’ll work well in games, but who knows – I might change it a bit.
Blundering (-5 pts)
A Blundering model will fall over when rolling two or more failed activation dice.
Love it, a couple of bumbling heroes. Love how your making your own little world here with a set of villains living nearby.
Cheers Erny! It’s fun to flesh out the world a bit and having recurring bad guys like Fatgit is a perfect way to do it. =)
Great posting and a fun read. I am enjoying your blog a lot and I am reading the rest of the postings on it.

Cheers, glad to hear you’re enjoying it! Thanks for the comment!
Love Short Willy (Ooh err!)
The shield looks great, especially the fact that its upside down.
That pic with Fatgit is priceless!
Cheers mate, I wasn’t so sure the shield actually worked. It looks more like a tree than an upside down dwarf face. =)
