Oh, Sigmar, bless this ravaged BODEH!

XD indeed

By far my favorite character to play in Vermintide. Bounty Hunter is too fun.

Hell yeah he is, but I found that I actually really love the Foot Knight haha.
Also Markus is just a previous beeb <3.

Everyone: "Look out! It's a Chaos Warrior!"
Saltzpyre: *Casually pulls out a pistol and kills it*

And that is why he's there xD

ROAR, MIGHTY DUO.

i like it

You gotta play with Koach and I sometime. I main Sienna and she plays Kerillian so you can get all the Saltz and Kruber you want!

Vut you're probably on the other side of the world no? ;o We still have no dedicated servers :c

We are in the US, yeah.. :< We're on the east coast tho! Just a uh.. just an ocean between our pings is all! x)

I think it's very well done...

V.

<3 ty

I can't believe you finished this one yesterday as well! You work so fast D:
This looks wonderful finished!

my hand is not grateful for that believe me xD. I may have to take an off-day from drawing today just to let it rest hahaha.

Figures, I should have known you'd like Salty-burn them all alive on a-Pyre... Vermantide looks epic and all, but I want it mostly just for this fanatical grump.

He's far from being a fanatic tbh haha. There's a lot of character to every single of the ubersreik 5 x3.
I love them all, but I love kruber and salty even more than the others .

Well his obsession with faith and nasty attitude towards the bright wizard, give him a sort of fanatical, Inquisition, witch hunter vibe, but I like that about him, he's comical, and he acts like he's almost got a small man crush on poor Kruber, (Who is a lovable soul) the way he speaks to him and about him. At least in Vermentide I, I have not watched much of II, but oh my goodness I want to try these games out! All the characters look incredible, feel incredible, but Salty here has to be my favorite...

They are a bit colder to each other [all of them except sienna-kerillian] in V2.
I think it was an unintended side effect from developing the game by the developers. But it works regardless.
I disagree about the man crush I've heard quite a few offensive lines exchanged between all of them lol but maybe it's just me x3.

As for sienna, victor doesn't like her, true, for what she is, but he's grown much nicer to her in a way. Not entirely evident in all lines, but there are a few lines where he tolerates her. Plus its his job to hunt all manner of magic and destroy it. So can't really hold it against him lol, the whole order is full of fanatics int hat regard.

Oh yeah, they definitely aren't as hostile. Or, rather, it seems to me that most of them now have a friendship born out of mutual rivalry and dislike, if that makes sense. People who normally hate each other become friends thanks to being forced to work together in battle tends to make a strange relationship.

At one point, I got separated as Saltzpyre, and he said "Sigmar, please guide me back to my... comrades?" And that pause he was making noise like he was trying to think of something other than 'friends'.

I love that line by him, he kinda sighs and does that "eh ? " sort of pause and I lov eit. There's so much character in it.

Yea, and I noticed when she dies, he laments her death as if he did care, but not the elf, it's like "OH WELL!"

At 1:50, that "Don't mock the sergeants sense of duty." I was joking with the :Man crush" but he acts far warmer to him than the others, and seems to be quite fond of the dwarf too.

I have been listening to tons of dialogs and back and forth banter conversations, among other things, since i don't have the game, they can be hilarious.

You're awesome KhatM, love your work, and you have excellent taste.

<3 to all of it x3.

As for him being warmer towards kruber, is because they come form the same background sort of. Duty, doing their job.
Plus salty is kruber's boss soooooooo yeah, he cares for him as his superior.

*Rants incoherently about pious shit while drowning in the blood of thousands of dead skaven, choking on toxic smog, and also absorbing warp-shot gatling rounds to the face*

XD Victor in a nutshell

I like how you get a bunch of the little details about Saltzpyre's face right. He has a more introspective expression than his typical scowl, I wonder what is on his mind.

I find Saltzpyre to be a very interesting character in general. I don't think we, the players, are supposed to really like him in the typical sense, but you can see how he is very slowly starting to accept the people he travels with as his comrades, maybe even his friends.

Plus, it does occur to me that he's a zealous witch hunter in a world where basically all of the worst fears of Renaissance Europe are true: witches and dark magic both exist, and pose a massive threat to the Empire from within in a way that even many of its external enemies do not.

All of this ^.

I like his character because it's a lot ore complicated than just a crazed and zealous witch hunter. It's not like he decided to act like that from the start. There were causes to everything [aak what you mentioned] and yeah, you an really hear t int he dialogues that he is slowly coming to accept his fellow team mates.

He's clearly a very emotionally and mentally repressed person, given that he was literally raised in the Witch Hunter's order, Victor has never really known anything else.

Also in Vermintide II, the different classes of Saltzpyre you can play show different paths his life can take: he forsakes any allegiance to the faith and takes up the life of a bounty hunter, or he basically abandons all else and becomes a Zealot.

I do think ultimately he accepts his comrades, albeit some more than others.

Yeah, not that he has long to do so ad do something with it though considering the timeline xD.

Ah well it's too bad my game experience as ruined by the devs. Was a great 340ish hours while it lasted :p

hello! i messaged ya in your dms, but just in case that didn't go through I was wondering if I could use this piece as a thumbnail for an audiobook I'm working on.

I did reply to you, an hour after you sent the DM. Saying yes you can use it so long as credit is giver where it is due.
