Every place has an entry…
The Albino woods are dense with colourless trees and scrub. It is a cold, mystical and foreboding place that both intrigues people and fills their sleep with nightmares. However at the northern entry of the vast white forest curious travellers will find a pass splashed with colour but mostly of Crimson. It could be mistaken as a reserve of rare flora, a peaceful garden, if it wasn’t for the long writhing tentacles riddled with razor sharp thorns. The keeper of the Pass is Corlina Rayne a cannibal, a taker of souls and a cruel and heartless Wytch. Her skirt is made from the rotting flesh of those who answer her riddles incorrectly. Her long tongue plunges down the throats or stabs directly into the heart to retract the soul before she feasts on the flesh. She will give you only one riddle, one chance, and if Corlina likes your answer she might possibly let you pass.
So answer her now…
What has five fingers but is not a hand?
This model is not part of my Retinue. She’s just something I came up with for the Narrative element of The Chapel. I hope that’s ok Mr Heresy?

Great stuff as usual 😉

I can’t answer the riddle, so I’m hoping that I’m safe here in the little cupboard under the stairs while I post this reply! That is one very nicely done scary figure!

Haha. Thanks Varnish. I’ll leave the question hanging for a while to see if anyone else can get it.

My brain rebels – I just can’t focus on how and where you decided to pick bits to make her. She is so disturbingly cyclopean looking.

It’s awesome mate! Great looking model and you’ve tapped into the feel of the Albino woods perfectly. Oh yeah the answer is a glove! Can I pass? 🙂

You may pass, unless of course you googled it, in which case consider your flesh stripped.
