elf bard

Postby tasoe » March 10th, 2012, 5:52 am

Hello all, I need your help.

I have an immature friend who likes role-playing games but refuses to play HeroQuest unless he plays an Elven Bard hero.
So if anyone knows any elf bard figure and a way to obtain it feel free to let me know.
Be careful though, it has to be a bard and it HAS to be an elf (or at least half-elf). I've found some very nice bards but he doesn't like them because they are not elven. Please help out if you know anything good.

Could only find a male bard in the halfling race:

Reaper has the coolest mini's. Shame they're in the US. I'd like to order some but I'm afraid customs might stop them.

edit: found one on a different site in the Netherlands, but I think they ship worldwide. anyway, it's from GameZone mini's in Germany:

thanks for the search. the first one i've found myself but is female, the second is great but he won't even discuss it because it's not elven.
The third one seems great to me and I hope he will like it but I think he wants to have a weapon as well as a musical instrument.

The one that is idolised by him is this but I've only found it in a site that's called tritex or something, but it's discontinued:

you could always use some green stuff and stick a crossbow, a bow and quiver or a sword in it's scabbard on his back from spare parts you might have. That way he has a weapon, he's just not using it right now ;)

Tell him to grow up and suck it up.

Gotta make a special character just for one guy?!

I would tell him off.
So it is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you can win a hundred battles without a single loss.
If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself.

i think the one you sent has a sword so he might do. I just hope he likes that one.

That is not an option otherwise I would go with that one. I was very specific about the help I needed in my first post.

this is a good idea drathe, can't say i haven't thought of it though.
it seems that a pair of ears aren't gonna cut the deal. the eyes is an equal important part and unfortunately i can't do anything about it.
