Well, other thing I forgot to post this when I first done them, you see a year ago I was trying to gm a homebrew a pathfinder campaing I made because I couldn’t find material to use to do my first campaign as gm, long-story-short it was a flop.
But I did few designs of few characters and just like it’s world, I kept it to recycle everthing I built for that campaign for other personal projects of mine.
But for now I want to show you guys the first designs I did for that campaign, the first Boss and his allies, of course, I’ll be naming them by order:
Sargent Oliver Cervantes: The Great Hobgoblin Sargent, Oliver Cervantes Bardin. The first boss that my party of players first face in the introduction of my homebrew world, he's a charismatic, heroic but weary man of the Hobgoblin Republic, who likes to prepare everything beforehand to ensure victory in any mission he leads, his troops -hobgoblin or not- love him for this qualities of and would show their devoltion and loyalty on the battlefield, but despite his leadership skills, great renown, unfaltering tactics and successes, his tender heart and care for his troops, leads him to often disagree with his superiors, preventing him from advancing further in the ranks to the point that his own wife and children outrank him. This conflict and the poor leadership of his superiors, will lead to his downfall at the hands of the heroes of the story, after getting sent off to a suicide mission, alongside his most fresh recruits under the excuse of artillery training.
Lieutenant Loretta Cortéz: Lieutenant and field medic who works under Sargent, Oliver Cervantes, as his right hand, as she aids him and his men during the first boss fight against my players on the homebrew campaign I made. She is grumpy, and very perfectionist, but has a soft side hidden deep within her, unknown to everyone but her twin sister, and those close to her. She enjoys to write romantic poems and melodies, as well paint beautiful landscapes in her free time. She's also known for her natural skill in fencing and tactics, as well medicine, making many think that she's what a hobgoblin should aspire to be in the army, but because of this idea that the people has of her, she considers this artistic side of her a weakness of sorts, and she embarrasses greatly whenever she’s seen doing this activities, so she tends to hide whenever she’s creating art.
Superior Private, Annetta Cortéz: Hobgoblin Superior Private and Engineer, Annetta, who works under Sargent, Oliver Cervantes, as engineer and siege gunner in charge of testing their army newly developed artillery, as well, she's Loretta's twin sister, and while she's not a genius like her sister, she knows her way with machinery, and firearms, originally she was gonna be firing cannon balls to my players while they were trying to attack the first boss, but my players were smarter, and destroyed the black powder reserves before facing the Sargent Cervantes, so instead, she's firing her musket from a safe distance to cover her sister, Loretta, while she heals her fallen comrades. She's a bit cowardly and timid, and prefers to be left alone as she tinkers with all sorts of things, specially, her beloved musket, which she takes pride that she builted up herself, but despite her introvert demeanor, she rarely strays away too far from her twin.
Recruit, Serena Angelos: Minotaur Recruit, Serena, who works under Hobgoblin Sargent, Oliver, she's a strong barbaric warrior that managed to overcome the eternal rage that runs through her boiling minotaur blood and instead enters into a state of eternal tranquility and awereness, and while she doesn't gets stronger and tougher out of this like the average minotaur does with their anger, she does get nimbler and clear of mind, originally she was going to be helping Annetta to possition the cannon to fire at my players during the first boss, before becoming a recurrent miniboss later on, but for how my players are handled her situation, and imprison everyone before trying to befriend them, so that never happened... Personality wise, she's a wise, calm and docile gal, that behaves very mother-like towards those close to her, wanting to help them in pretty much any situation they might get into, this motherly devotion also extends to the battlefield as she won't think twice before sacrificing herself and willingly taking a hit in place of one of her comrades just to ensure their safety. But don’t let this laid back demeanor fool you, she’s still a minotaur through and through, so she more than happily take up your challenge if you think you can fight her.
Recruit, Victoria Montenegro: Gnoll Recruit, Victoria, who works under Hobgoblin Sargent, Oliver. She's a fast and strong soldier of the hobgoblin republic, specialized on entering and exit the battlefield quickly and shredding anything and anyone inside it even faster before the enemy can even react, but she also has a knack for machinery, and scouting. She's a bit cynic who grew under the ideology imposed by her parents that the weak serves the strong and so that she's must be the strongest of them all in order to succeed in life before she was dumped into the military academy when she was at a young age, where this ideology was reinforced even more, and so, she grew up with with an oppressive expectation that she must prove herself on everything she does, and by the time she graduated from the military academy, she was so strong that she could outwrestle even the mighty minotaurs that trained her with ease, but during her training, she became close friends with the minotaur, Serena, as well a small half-goblin with a big zweihander, who together showed Victoria that there’s more to life than might alone, and became almost inseparable since then. On the surfice, she’s blunt, brutish, hot-headed and very aggressive towards anyone, a natural cynic that pretty much mocks you with her presence alone, as it is obvious that she doesn’t believe anything you say to her, but deep underneath her rough exterior she’s caring, honest and very loyal friend, that would go to the ends of the world for the sake of those close to her.
Originally, she was gonna be a recurring miniboss for my party, alongside Serena the minotaur, but in after the cannon thing happen, she was gonna fight my players on the first boss fight to put pressure on my party, but I didn't knew that one of my players had ray of enfeeblement, and got hit by it before getting ganked and k.o.'d cold as soon she showed up... Though she did started improving once the party started to take her into their adventures.
Recruit, April De La Rosa: Half-Goblin recruit, April, who works under Sargent, Oliver, and daughter to the late Hobgoblin General Warlord who used to rule her nation. Despite her size and appearance, she's a capable fighter, strong enough to wield that sword that's twice as big as herself with relative nimbleness and ease, unlike her compatriots, she enlisted on to the Republic’s Army, in hopes to become strong enough to avenge her parents after she lost them in during an siege at the capital of the Republic at the end of a devastating war, that took place 5 years prior the story of the homebrew takes place. During this siege, she witnessed the moment her mother fell in combat trying to defend her and her people, while barely surviving the merciless onslaught herself, as proven by the terrible scars that mark her entire body, a massacre that only stopped when her father was declared dead, after he was exectured during a judicial duel against the leader of the enemy who led the siege. After that day, she picked up her father's zwaihander, as well parts of her mother's armor, before swearing to claim the life of the man who responsable of their deaths, using those very items to serve justice. She would grew up alone and full of hatred until she met Victoria and Serena, who becomes likes sisters to her, as they help her to see the world beyong just vengeance, and while she still desires to avenge her parents, she also started to wish to follow her in father’s footsteps to protect her people and to prevent them of suffering the same as her.
Just like Victoria and Serena she was gonna be miniboss later on after the first boss, also, she was simply a normal goblin, but her Strength was too low to carry the sword, so I made her a half-goblin instead.
She got K.O'd pretty quickly too, after getting ganked, she tanked enough to be able to at least attack, but the die I rolled a 2... so yeah, no way she hit a paralyzed and prone giant with a roll that low...
