‘Ezrä ‘Ezer with Assistant Arm

Posted on December 27, 2020 by eczarnik

'Ezra 'Ezer lends a helping hand.

‘Ezrä ‘Ezer, the auxiliary verb, is a junior member of the Holy Tongue Society who’s an assistant to Pelë Po’al. While growing up on a farm gave him super strength, he also has a knack for a mechanics. And the Assistant Arm on his back gives him an additional helping hand!

This bionic arm, which is standard equipment among the Society, not only packs a powerful punch that fractures foes. Due to its ties to the זרע shoresh root, it also launches parasitic seed berries that can force enemies to fight for you! The only weakness it can’t overcome is ‘Ezrä’s compulsion to support his friends at all costs!

This drawing is the first digital art that I made on my new Wacom Cintiq 16 tablet via Clip Studio Paint. In 2021, I plan on developing my digital drawing skills in tandem with my standard vector art. If I can make CSP art quickly and efficiently, I might switch the comic over to B&W manga style in exchange of releasing more content quickly!

Jagged Point

Posted on December 21, 2020 by eczarnik

The Jagged Point is a common javelin that the ‘Ivrit Revival Movement uses in thrown or melee combat. Based on the חדד shoresh root, its mysterious iron alloy tip easily pierces most armor. Two sharp blades orbit and swirl around the spiked spearhead, giving it slashing as well as piercing damage. But only the most sharp-witted warriors can wield this without injuring themselves.

The Jagged Point has a close melee reach and a moderate thrown reach. It does DOM+3D slash and pierce damage. Hit targets must must make a successful LIF save or gain the bleeding ailment.

 

Nesheq (Inktober Day 20)

Posted on October 20, 2020 by eczarnik

A Nesheq is the ultimate weapon.The Nesheq is a weapon that promises to be the kiss of death… if you can figure out how to use it!

As Tiqwah Tawit (in civilian disguise) demonstrates, the Nesheq’s features come from the נשק shoresh root and broader family. It can launch a flaming explosive at its foes. Several jointed mechanical arms can grip or strangle opponents, and a sharp steel trap offers an extra bite. In addition, a swiveling hammer at the other end slams even the toughest enemies into the ground.

So what’s the only catch? The Nesheq’s user interface leaves… something to be desired. Flip the wrong switch or press the wrong button, and it can backfire on its user!
