Ilsa Vaduva is a controversial character. As her background might me considered off-putting to some, I have posted it here on my blog, rather than on any social media, so only those who are interested in the character will have to read about her. Content Warning : The villain known as Matriarch is one that engages in casual use of sex and sexuality as a weapon. The following background contains mention of drug use, human trafficking, sex trafficking, and child prostitution. If these are subjects that you or your players are not comfortable in engaging with in your campaign, please feel free to discard or modify Ilsa Vaduva, Matriarch, and/or Voluptuary as you see fit. Ilsa Vaduva was born in Romania. As she grew up, it was clear she would be a beautiful woman, and chose to become a fashion model at a young age.

 As I prepare to once again start running my Transformers: MASK '88 campaign, I am going through my old notes and building Contacts for the characters whom the PCs regularly interact at the Boulder Hill base outside of Jasper, Nevada.

Stone - Whereas Cover Girl is assigned to maintain the motor pool of MASK, Sgt. Stone is here to maintain the physical bodies of the Joes stationed at Boulder Hill. Plus, I'm a big fan of Brendan Fraser! William Fowler - Just transferred from ...

 It's been a while since I've managed to get one of these contact builds done. I've been busy with my new art site, several commission projects, and a couple of writing projects. Recently, Ive been able to clear some of those off my plate, so now I can get back to having fun with these contacts! Let's get back to work with the Autobot Recordibot: Steeljaw ! Steeljaw is a character that has undergone several changes and incarnations throughout different Transformers series and continuities. In G1, he was a lion-formed Recordibot who operated with Blaster, as well as an expert tracker.  In the Bayverse films, Steeljaw was a dumb slobbery dog-bot who just served to tell stupid dog jokes: humping legs and peeing and/or slobbering on everything (great work, Michael Bay!) One of the newest incarnations -- from the Robots In Disguise animated series that served as a sequel to TF: Prime -- of Steeljaw was as a Decepticon revolutionary who had a werewolf-like robot form.
