Whoops, I seem to have slipped and uploaded some art here. Huh. Well, nothing to be done about it now…
Oooh, it’s the rat guy I’ve heard about.
Amazing how you accidentally watermarked it, too…
I must have accidentally hit the “Import the image into Photoshop, then create a ‘>G Logo’ layer at 50% Opacity, then output as .jpg” button. I really need to map that to a less easy-to-accidentally-press place.
To make matters worse, it’s right next to your “Post to the forums in a new thread” button. Just irresponsible.
Oooooooh… Very cool. Feel like dropping any spoilers about his nemesis?
Do it dude, peer pressure.
Well, in the absence of anything more conclusive, it’s time for baseless speculation! I don’t think he fits as a nemesis for any of the heroes we currently have, so it’ll have to be one of the new ones. (Either in the set with him or in a future set.) I’m guessing either some sort of plague doctor character or another lycanthrope/shapeshifter, perhaps some sort of anthropoid big cat. Or both? A plague doctor that turns into animals? A plague doctor that’s really a jaguar?
EDIT: Ooh! And he can be a narc by day, since PR is apparently a drug dealer!
Really SlenderTroll, I think it’s always time for baseless speculation.
Baseless is my favorite kind of speculation. Once bases get involved, it just confuses the issue.
Bases? Who’s on first, What’s on second. How Far is third.
I think it’s going to be like, the Lizard from Spider-man.Horrible science experiment gone wrong, now half man half beast kind of thing. And I could see Plague Rat being Wraith’s nemesis.
A agree Meakatommy, Plague Rat feels like a fit for Wraith. I wonder if they intend to make him a Jeckle/Hyde or have him stuck in this new form.
Oh, and all your baseless speculation are belong to us!
But- but- I took off every zig!
I don’t know!
(Seriously: that routine is on my iPod…)
Greatly looking forward to hearing more about Plague Rat (which, by the way, is an awesome name)… And all the other new folks!
Rabit
Oh… yeah… I Don’t Know’s on third… that’s right (and makes more sense (I should do more research…)).
Squee!
Heeey, Charlie wake up, you silly sleepy head! We’re on our way to Candy Mountain!
Shun the non-believer… Shuuuuuun-ah!
Okay, back to being serious again, with my speculation. I for one hope that Plague Rat has the power to inflict madness (or terrifying hallucinations) upon our heroes! I read a hint that he might have the power to convert heroes or render them actionless for awhile… I’m expecting he’ll generate hoards of rats which will make each other’s attack and health higher (As long as Hasbro doesn’t sue… You might want to rethink the name, just saying. After all, they went after Wizkids over constructable card games.)
I promise he will operate vastly different than what you’re thinking of. Hordes of rats in his deck are not in the cards. Pun intended.
I am even more excited about the expansion now then before. Can’t wait to see him in combat.
