Supervillain: Odyllic

Odyllic, named after a term related to the pseudoscientific Odic Force, is a master mentalist. While he only has minor telekinetic powers, his telepathy is second to none. With the accoutrements of a classic hypnotist, he uses dazzling illusions and mind control to commit crimes for fun! While he could be a serious, world-level threat, he prefers to think of crime as a game, with the heroes playing their parts in his story.

The model is another Reaper Miniature from the Bones 4 Kickstarter, and the figure is now named "Meligaster, Iconic Mesmerist, Halfling Bard" on the website. I did a little putty work to turn his bare feet into passable boots. Being a Halfling, he's a little short, but his hat makes up for it; additionally, as I'm sure he would tell you, "physical stature has no bearing on the MEASURE of a MAN'S MIND!!!!!!"

The colors are red and purple, which is a villainous power palate like Magneto. Some bright "Gehenna's Gold" paint from Citadel really makes the metal bits pop. The painting turned out really well and I'm happy with the result.
