As one might expect from humanoid elephants, Loxodons are a peaceful, calm people… Until you scare them. When frightened or angry, they bring the energy of a stampede all within a single 8 ft tall creature. They bring the size and wisdom that is wanted and loved by the guilds of Ravnica, and thus are often sought after as powerful guardians or devout worshippers. While they are almost exactly like elephants stood up on their hind legs, their hands do have digits that can grasp weapons. Their thick, leathery skin makes them relatively comfortable in both hot and cold environments, though their sense of touch might be diminished due to it. The tireless work of Loxodons are well-known to many guilds and nations across Ravnica. They are natural stonesmiths, passing very ancient and potent techniques amongst their children. It’s difficult for them to teach others, since it’s so instinctual. Therefore, all Loxodon are sought after to build fantastic monasteries and arboretums. —D&D Beyond Goliaths and Orcs just not beefy enough for the kind of PC you want to play? Then how about a race based on the largest land mammal in the modern world. An Elephant-man. The biggest and bulkiest PC race D&D has to offer. I love how this massive pachyderm came out. Six in-progress pictures below. |
Why you should practice drawing Loxodons: Yeah, Yeah: Anthropomorphic beast men! We get it. But in this case, knowing how to exaggerate the sheer mass and physical musculature will come in handy whenever you're drawing oversized brutes. Giants, Ogres, and Trolls are just a few of the many fantasy races you can apply this to. Not to mention superheroes, and even Babar the Elephant King.
