Fresh from the drawing table... Boar (Warthog)!

I have for you another drawing that is fresh from the drawing table. This time around it is a Boar (Warthog)! Still making my way through "B" and all its mundane monsters. I have finally tackled the first of the three entries under 'Boar'. I present to you my version of a Boar (Warthog)…

I am always a little surprised by which mundane monsters have entries in the Monster Manual. Apparently there needed to be three Boars, one of which being the Warthog. When a normal Boar and and a Giant Boar won't do, you have the Warthog. ...RAWR! Make all your Lion King reference in you heads, please. I see the Warthog being there for comic relief, the party is chasing something or hiding from something and the underbrush begins to move and at the height of tension the Warthog come running out. There is also the need for a random animal to be hit by a spell turning it into some abomination or the party is starving and they go on a mini game of hunting. So many options for the little Warthog!
