Desert Druid Cora Wingate by Great Grimoire

She walks the bleached wastes where carrion birds circle and the bones of the land jut upward like broken teeth — and the vultures follow her not out of hunger, but out of reverence.

• ✔ 32mm scale resin miniature, printed fresh to order in the UK
• ✔ Supplied unpainted and ready to prime
• ✔ Compatible with D&D, Pathfinder, and all tabletop RPGs
• ✔ Equally at home on the gaming table or the display shelf

Cora Wingate is no grove-tender or forest hermit. This is a druid shaped by arid desolation, by the harsh mercy of deserts that take everything and leave only truth behind. She stands hooded and composed on a rubble-strewn base of skulls and curved horns, her flowing cloak trailing behind her as though caught in a dry wind. A gnarled, serpentine staff is gripped in one hand, its twisted upper end curling like a viper about to strike. At her feet and flanking her: two vultures — one perched watchfully beside a mound of skulls, one crouched low at her side — companions or familiars or simply creatures that know better than to leave her side.

The sculpt rewards painters willing to lean into contrast: the drama of sun-bleached cloth against shadow, the texture of feathers on the vultures, the finely detailed braid work visible beneath her hood. She reads equally well as a Circle of Spores or Circle of Stars druid, a wandering NPC shaman, or a faction leader from a desert-dwelling culture with their own complicated relationship to life and death. Scaled at 35mm, she works brilliantly both on the table and as a display piece in any collection.

Perfect for adventurers who:

• Want a druid PC that breaks the forest-and-antlers mould entirely
• Need a compelling desert shaman NPC, oracle, or quest-giver
• Are building a sun-scorched or necrotic-themed campaign setting
• Appreciate character sculpts with rich environmental storytelling in the base
• Collect display miniatures with strong silhouettes and painterly potential

Encounter Hook:
The party crests a dune to find a lone figure standing motionless in the heat haze — two vultures at her feet, a staff planted in the sand, and a circle of skulls arranged around her with deliberate care. She does not turn as they approach. She simply says: "You're the third group this week. The desert has been sending me warnings. I suspect you're the reason why."
