Season 3 Episode 02 of Hunting Party has the Unicorn Knights square up against their most devastating foes yet... themselves! Here is the full artwork for the Sever and the Subjugate, the Mutt of Malar, the Furious Frostbite, and the Prophet Panoptic, courtesy of @noirgalaxies.bsky.social
A mind flayer/kenku hybrid is dressed in illithid vestments. Two mind flayer heads sit as his shoulders, their tentacles transitioning into bulging veins at his forearms; four tentacles splay out from his screeching beak. He is facing the viewer in an intimidating pose. A bugbear has a furious expression on his face. He is assuming a fighting stance, body wound up as if about to strike with the giant battleaxe he wields. A drow elf has a furious expression on her face. She is in a flying pose, held aloft by two giant dragon wings sprouting from her back. Her skin is covered in dragon scales, and her hair has two protruding tufts to mimic horns. A human woman is facing the viewer with a haughty expression on her face. She is wearing pink wizards robes, with a giant wizard's hat. The visible skin on her arms, torso, and legs are covered in eyes of all sizes, looking in all directions.
