Blighted Ogrun Centaurs....I'll be in my bunk...
I like the female Ogrun warlock. Sure she's not a sexy Ogrun like Thagrosh but I think she is cool.

If you pause at 4:47 of "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mZLbyizm40" There's a female Ogryn that is already very different to female legion warlocks. I mean if this is what Everblight meant by improving on nature he dropped the ball on this one. She's like the female version of Old witch of Khador. Maybe they're the same person who knows. Vulturebeast will be fun to paint at least. 4:47 is cryx's black ogrun? Looking for whatever else you mean but can't find it... An on it is displayed a female Ogrun. I'm responding to 'I actually really like the way she looks purely because she's so much opposite the current female legion warlocks.' A female Ogrun already looks different. Missed opportunity then to fall for the old "fat cave dwelling witch mystic" trope IMO. Edit: I love that the video starts with "Hulking brutes of muscle and bone" then you get to Amarag and I'm like....welp one of those two descriptors is accurate. Maybe she hands out the protein shakes.

So you're annoyed "improving on nature" means something other than getting sexier?

Though PP is one to take every female and make an alternate sexy version. I would expect the female Ogrun to be just as strong and fierce as the males. But maybe she was 60 years ago.

I'm guessing that blighted Ogrun don't live very long, on account of their axe-to-face culture, so, she could very well just be middle-to-late-middle aged, which I'd expect from someone who manipulates fate well enough to do it on the battlefield. Another thing to remember is that practical strength looks very different from Mr. Universe strength.

So you're annoyed "improving on nature" means something other than getting sexier? Please, let's not get into this discussion. Also - in most cases not being fat = fit and healthy = improvement. For some reason it's current sexiness standard. I think old hag is actually very stereotypical but it works. It's clear she must be the hardest and most cunning blighted ogrun to live that long and lead.

Another thing to remember is that practical strength looks very different from Mr. Universe strength. Having some experience in both styles of strength training and having to work with a renal dialysis unit I can saw with a great amount of confidence that is crap. Not that you are crap, to be clear your not, but that idea is tantamount to crap. No one regardless of age or gender who participates in a functional strength program will end up looking like grannarag. You look like that eating blocks of cheese and doing literally shit all. And if she's 60 most likely she is not going to see 65 let alone being in a combat situation. ForEver_Blight is correct when he says "I would expect the female Ogrun to be just as strong and fierce as the males.". So did I. I was hoping for maybe a more maternal "mama bear" type since Orgun like protecting things so much. Something like Illaoi.... Would have been much more thematically and aesthetically appropriate IMO to lead "Hulking Brutes of muscle and bone" as the video hypes up. Not someone with Blood type: Pudding. She looks so out of place with the rest of the ogrun never mind the more lithe nyss. Although perhaps the story there going for is something like yeah I'm fat and old and hate it to and I'm following Everblight so he can revitalizing me so I could go back to the fearsome figure I was that could bring half crazed berserking mountain ogrun to revere me much as they did. That could be interesting. The old fountain of youth story to restore a once legendary character brought low by the ravages of time. Using the powers of a dragon to defy fate.

Well she is built around eating vast quantities of people

I just meant how a lot of models in Warmachine have around 3% body fat.

I am seriously jealous of Warp Wolf physiques. edit: they only showed 3 spells. if the mess hold true of # of spells = fury stat -2. I'ma be pretty pissed. 10" control range on an infantry caster, Ok. Having that ritual sacrifice to help her cast more things a turn, OK. But she'd be casting offensive spells with a base of 5? That's just plain sucks.

I'd bet on Focus 7 for that kind of archetype. Calandra has 8 and seems to be in a similar vein.

Eh, fat people (male or female) generally don't have a place in a military, and it would seem really out of place if there were much more than we currently have. Body types like Rasheth should be rare, and not the norm. More large muscular chicks however would be sweet.
