We had a 20k BV vs 20k BV game at a FLGS yesterday. Was pretty fun, ran some battle armor I've not used before, Shedu are absolutely tanks. #Battletech

Taureaux androcéphales ailés :
Shêdu ou Lamassu, sont des génies protecteurs. Près d'une trentaine furent dénombrés dans la cité et dans le palais.
Le marbre de Mossoul utilisé provenait des carrières du haut du Tigre.
Le texte à la gloire du souverain apparait entre les pattes.

Had to go a couple years back on my Instagram, but here's most of a horse.

It's Animals Week! Tell me about an animal in your world that can fly, #DecemberWorldbuilders! Once again, you define what an animal is for the prompt. If you want to include sapient animal-people or semi-sapient creatures of questionable 'animalhood' that is up to YOU

The Monster as in the energy drink. Although we waited out some magical darkness and my character threw out 20 Spirit Bolts at random (non-lethally, because the DM allows that for spells). Had to roll 60d10, and took down a Shedu. (Which I could actually see because of Third Eye: Ethereal Plane.)

The only time cherubim have a definite description is in Ezekiel, where they have human bodies, wings, and four faces. However, the word is probably cognate with an Assyrian word for the lamassu or shedu, they pull the chariot of God, and their spread wings serve as a seat for God.

AKariusPだっけ、Gaussサン用セカンダリ。あれ作ってファウンドリに置きっぱなしなんだけど、どうもロケランの類らしく、クソ強とか。味方は巻き込むけど、耐久に持ち込んだらたくさん倒せるタイプのやつかもしれない。よく野良で見るSheduをイメージしてるけど、MOD揃えたらあんな風になれるんだろうか。弾切れするだろうけど #warframe

![Outro slide do meu curso com o título Anjos na Bíblia. Embaixo temos o texto do Gênesis 22:11 (cena do sacrifício de Isaac), “Mas o anjo do Senhor [lit. mensageiro de YHWH] lhe bradou desde os céus, e disse: Abraão, Abraão! E ele disse: Eis-me aqui” [lit. “escuto”].

Fun Mesopotamia fact: A male lamassu is a shedu, and a female lamassu is called an apsasu.
A fun fact about me is that I've never seen The Exorcist, so if I bring up Pazuzu in a conversation, I'm probably talking about either hit DS game Sin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor, or I'm about to to drop some sick facts about Mesopotamia on you.

Be interesting to see how it functions. Given it's a Sentient weapon, and so far most Sentient weaponry tends to either have infinitely replenishing ammo (Shedu, Basmu, etc) or Nonconsentacles to attack your enemies, it is interesting to consider the possibilities.

I feel like that was a partially missed opportunity with the Archons, so we may not get something like that for a long time. But I'd love an upgraded Basmu and Shedu, those guys are so unbelievably fun to use.
