Hello everyone!

Note: This design decision is exclusive to $5.50+ patrons. Once the poll is released to the public, voting is closed.  


I'm starting to play with different designs for the Plague Doctor. The iconic mask is a must, but what style do you like best? There are more awesome options than I expected, so I'm especially keen to get your input!



Grim Reaper: Tattered, dirty, generally looking like death

Poison Alchemist: Vials, syringes, tools

Refined: Collar and cane, I like this one more than I expected to haha

(Couldn't find the artist to give credit :/)

I like the poison alchemist but the concept art makes it look a bit too much like a kenku IMO

Samantha Applegarth

Love me a well stocked and prepared plague doctor. Gotta have them vials!

Scott Dornian

This has been the toughest vote so far. I like everything about the refined one except the collar. I like the potion/syringe one except he doesn't look "old timey" enough. I like the reaper one except I feel the doctor should be more of a, well, doctor than a reaper. Tough decision! But I put my nickle down on refined.

I feel like there could be a meet-in-the-middle between poison alchemist and refined doctor... But which to vote for?

I'd make sure to make the mask extra clear ^_^ And I agree, the mask in that concept art just looks like a beak.

M3DM

The vials are super cool~ Would be fun to paint too!

M3DM

But the ugly collar is so fun! XD haha All very valid points!

M3DM

If the vote stays as close as it is, I will definitely do a blend of the two~ Perhaps the blend would have the cane and hat, but also the vials and tools.

I think that could be ideal. A lot of the "eh" about refined would stem from the collar I think. Swapping that out and working in the tools/vials would be a nice mix. Also I think it would be a better angle for the artificer Alchemist subclass, and you could use it for tabletop with more flexibility.

I just love that ugly collar XD I know most don't so I probably won't include it. (It would also be PITA to sculpt sooo) Awesome input! Thank you Green!

Robert Bersch

All those are great looks. This I would get to most use out of the poison alchemist though

Yousiff Saxon

Any of them would be an excellent inspiration for a personal quest for one of my players (Artificer) so I'm excited.

Auluaden Bartolli

Agreed, I already have a quest in mind with him as the villain. Mia's inspiration picture inspired me.

M3DM

I'm glad you both liked that one!! I think I am going to incorporate aspects of the poison alchemist into the winning design since it is so close to 1st right now

I like the more "modern" style of the Poison Alchemist except the mask (looks more like an venetian carnival mask). it should be this modern design with the mask of the collar and cane mask. But all designs would be fine ! Cant wait.

I'd really like one that can work with the new Monk UA subclass

Thomas Briggs

If you're open to additional ideas, I like the concept of a plague doctor with a swarm of pet rats.

Dalton Stewart

Oooh, i definitely hope its a blend. A rwfined poisoner.. I love it
