Man, I just watched the trailer and that was a trip. I think they nailed the character: just the right amount of cynicism and hard edges without dipping too far into quippy one-liners.

More of this please. We need to give sinecures to people who like what they do.

Trollkin from Iron Kingdoms. They are what the name says: kin to trolls. About the same relationship as humans have to gorillas.

They retain a lot of the regenerative powers, so they’re very willing to settle things with violence, because hey, what’s regrowing an arm or two between friends?

They’re big, loud, rambunctious, deeply respectful of nature, and are basically Big Dwarves. Also orcs? They don’t really have an analogue, which is why I like them so much.

I have a tiny little idea bumping around my head for a setting where dragons are not only intelligent but are the apex species. I think it’d be cool to base them off solitary predators like bears, jaguars, etc, as it means they would hate cooperating but would grudgingly do so if necesaary.

Ooo, that could be too.

The Astartes would totally be on the side of Sauron. They’re brainwashed child soldiers filled with xenophobia and hate. Definitely makes more sense for them to be Orcs - actually that’s basically what Orcs are in Tolkien.

It’s not an oh-marge, it’s ho-mahg-ee.

Well, I didn’t know I needed punk/emo Peach (Bowser?), but I do now.

Megamind. Just Megamind. The Incredibles is good, but Megamind is first class.
