Sweet. Maybe she (since she's named after Bunjee) could be like Brunak, a figure that works with specific terrain but is also playable off of that terrain type map. Like have Snow Strength (example) and then a good ability that can be used off of snow terrain. That is, if she's an albino Gorilla. I love speculations.

True.

Something about this speculation reminds me of the Chardris speculation. Everyone thought, "Here's the one that breaks the mold... the Darklord Utgar awesome elf." Nope. I'm not excpecting much different here. A repaint, of course, probably of a Krav, Nakita, or Microcorp. Since bunjee is the inspiration, and there's an intense overstock, I'd guess a Nakita repaint.

You sexist pig! Who says it can't be a woman!?

I got excited and then I remembered I'm not going to Gencon.

I'm tired of not owning any exclusives.

It seems safe to assume that Truth and GB picked a flattering figure for the lovely Bunjee.

I hereby predict that Skahen will be an Aquilla figure, and still help the Gorillas somehow.

I think Aquilla is going to summon leaders for a bunch of squads of the other allied generals. She's not really a warrior, so she doesnt know who to summon.

Due to the same reasons as my above post, I believe she'll be Vydar's.

In fact, I think GB just confirmed it in WotC thread.

I've updated the first post...

My initial post was going to say "Well, Skahen sounds kinda like a monkey name, so it might be a G-Nator repaint." However, I'm rethinking that post.

I love the fact that all sorts of community members get to sneak in as GenCon promos... it makes them seem official, but at the same time, not too deep into the game where fans have the reins.

Then I remember truth is PROBABLY playtesting Wave 10 as we speak, and just wrote a bunch of bios for the main site, so that thought passes.
