The Dreaded Baba Yaga of myth was a notorious cannibal and all-around meat lover. But surely even such a terrifying witch wouldn’t prepare her meat inside her magical dancing hut?? That’s the concept behind this model, the Abattoir of Baba Yaga. This dancing slaughterhouse can be summoned to a battlefield by a witch willing to make the necessary sacrifices, where it will stomp about on its great chicken legs and flatten the witch’s enemies. The inside of the shack is filled with fetid, hanging meat of various and mysterious origin, and the magical meat hooks that do not yet support a prize are hungry for more. They will reach out of the shack, magically lengthening and moving of their own accord to grab up nearby corpses (whether produced by the hut’s own violence or not). Each corpse hauled into the abattoir thusly returns a little bit of life essence to the summoning witch as a bit of a thank you gift.

Dark-Platypus Studio specializes in making models for role-playing game enthusiasts. Our models are designed to be printed in 28mm Heroic scale, the perfect size for Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder, or other games that are often played on a 1” grid. They include Pre-supported versions and unsupported versions (in case you want to alter the size to suit your own needs).

The concept for this model came from our home campaign of the Weird Frontiers game, where one of our players came up with it as an alternate Hellbilly power. It was such a strong visual idea I just had to make it happen!
