TROOPING BLEMMYES

“Brutish warlords of the Castle Wastes, clans of slaving Blemmyes have filled in the spaces where famine has bore great holes into the fabric of civilization, and mortals kings have abandoned their people for the pursuit for the Grail.”

My take on the Blemmyes of medieval folklore!

in my project blemmyes are towering suits of armor overtaken by colonies of Flesh weaving spiders who use Ember threads pulled from the corpses of mages to puppet them

Ayin asking if you want to be a mythological creature only to turn you into a blemmyes.

Accidentally imagined Elon Musk as a blemmyes and gave myself an incurable headache.

We risk alienating the Blemmyes and Cynocephaloi among this Worthy's subjects at our peril.

If you chop off your own head, you can become a Blemmyes from Old English mythology!

An important question, which I believe has been asked before.

Is the Kool-Aid man one of the Headless people, the Blemmyes of folklore and myth?

New little series.
Drop your favorite medieval animal / creature / grotesque / gargoyle depiction and i will make a pinup-esque miniature of him in some medieval marginalia-like scene.
More wacky - better.
No humans, no blemmyes or sciapods (or any other human-faced things).
