The Erol Otus Shrine

I’m not a particularly huge fan of this module, but the cover art by Otus succinctly expresses the gonzo sci-fi/fantasy mash-up end of the D&D spectrum.

Note the bat-winged helmet. Weird helmets are an Otus staple.

The Erol Otus Shrine

...I find that many Otus drawings catch my attention, and stick in my mind far longer than other early rolegame artists do. His style evokes the exotic and the macabre in a way that few other artists can match. --Matt Stevens, “Brilliance & Dross in RPG Artwork”, Imazine #37
