These are the digitized versions of the Cesspionage Dungeons And Dragons pieces, based on each of the most iconic and powerful monsters in the Dungeons & Dragons Monster Manual.
The first monster who represents the King is the Tarrasque, which is
known for being one of the most powerful monsters in Dungeons and
Dragons, boasting monsterous power, able to destroy cities effortlessly.
The same applies for the Queen piece, represented by Tiamat, the Queen Of Chromatic Dragons, a destructive opponent that a team of players can fight against.
The Bishop is represented by the Beholder, a crafty abberation who shoots
many different beams from its eye stalks, floating around the
battlefield.
The Knight will be represented by the Troll, who is powerful enough to jump around its opponents. As Trolls are known to lose limbs, it will be designed further to have
lost an arm, but will be holding a horse's leg in its intact arm to
represent its Knight status.
The Rook will be a Death Knight, an while it will not be a Knight in
Chess, it is still a ferocious opponent that will have large range in
movement, and its head has been designed to resemble a Rook's tower, which the original Death Knight bears a slight resemblance to.
The final piece is the Pawn, who is represented by a meek Goblin, while they are weak, they excel in strength in numbers just as a Pawn and other Pawns in Chess do.
This blog was written during my studies at the University Of Central Lancashire to catalogue and archive my development of the various projects I worked on.
