SLAADI: Spumescent Slaad

They mean business. Colossal harbingers of total, apocalyptic warfare, Spumescent Slaadi are engines of pure filth, destruction and chaos. Massive, groaning, twitching bodies sprouting tumorous stovepipes spewing the raw material of Limbo onto any plane they breach, these Spumescent Slaadi exist to even the playing field and make conquest a feel a little more like home for the mobs from Limbo. That is, when more than two or three Slaadi can get their acts together long enough to plan something that lasts more than a few minutes.

Had to look that one up (after my time, it seems) - but that's be a damn good fight.

Thank you Hena, this one turned out quite well I think. One of my favorites of the series.

I might add, to no one in particular, that this is an idealized self portrait. Some day I too hope to be an "engine of pure filth, destruction and chaos."

I had a very strong response to this one, a mix of humor and disgust, so this line is about my favorite moment of today so far.

For good or ill, that has often been the reaction I elicit in most people I come to know as more than just acquaintances. So I'd say this is actually quite a good sign for our relationship!
