Description

Eyes closed, hands pressed together at his chest, Caryian pivots on one foot as six blazing arms of astral fire fan outward — and the last thing his enemies see is golden light.

  • ✔ 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

Caryian is a monk of the Elves of the Golden Sun, a warrior-ascetic who has transcended ordinary Ki to channel the raw radiance of the astral plane. His sculpt captures the precise moment of transformation: a rooted crane-stance pose, wiry and disciplined beneath flowing scale-textured robes and a billowing sash, while four additional spectral arms wreathed in crackling golden flame erupt from his back like solar wings. The detail on his belt medallion — a sunwheel emblem — and the ornate eye-in-diamond motif on his back armour speak to a deeply considered lore. His base is strewn with sand and emerging clawed forms, as though the earth itself recoils from his power.

This is an unpainted miniature printed at 32mm scale. Whether you use him as a PC at the table or as a display centrepiece on the shelf, the sculpt rewards both a quick basecoat and a patient parade-quality paint job. The translucent quality of the astral flame arms — visible in the product images — makes them a particularly rewarding target for contrast paints or object source lighting techniques.

Perfect for adventurers who:

  • Play Way of the Sun Soul or Way of the Open Hand Monks
  • Need a visually distinctive elven monk PC or high-level NPC
  • Want a boss-tier opponent — an ancient sun-cult champion or divine herald
  • Collect display miniatures from the DM Stash Elves of the Golden Sun range
  • Are looking for a centrepiece mini that conveys raw, controlled power

Encounter Hook:
The party tracks the stolen Sun Codex to a clifftop monastery, only to find its guardian already waiting — Caryian, perched on one leg at the temple gate, six arms of golden fire half-manifested, eyes still closed. "You may leave," he says quietly, "or you may not." The initiative roll is the players' choice.

Details

What's included:
One Caryian — Monk of the Astral Sun miniature, printed at 32mm scale. The model and its textured sand base are supplied as separate pieces and can be joined with superglue. The base is an integral part of the design and the sculpt interacts with it — we recommend displaying them together for the full effect. Supplied unpainted and ready for priming.
