Wyrd Games - The Drowned


PoodlesWithGuns

My round 2 Submission.

I was inspired by the poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner by the English poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge, that inspired the theme "Water Water Everywhere"

 Eventually, the ship encounters a ghostly hulk. On board are Death (a skeleton) and the "Night-mare Life-in-Death", a deathly-pale woman, who are playing dice for the souls of the crew. With a roll of the dice, Death wins the lives of the crew members and Life-in-Death the life of the mariner, a prize she considers more valuable. Her name is a clue to the mariner's fate: he will endure a fate worse than death as punishment for his killing of the albatross.

With that in mind, I set out to build a board that was inspired by that part of the story. A ghastly Drowned walking out onto the docks leaving his fated Dice and Seaweed behind.
