Rattles are used by the Caretos to induce fear in the enemy. They are very good at preserving the fine qualities of the red grape for many years. The horns of giant beasts are used in the Northern Lands to store wine. It induces fear on anyone that tries to sneak up from behind to the point where it might just paralyze them.Ĭareto’s Ancient Horn of Wine (weapon offhand) This big mask is said to have belonged to a giant a thousand years ago. The day that the Brewmaster left the Valley of Caras he was given 5 items to take with him on his journey. The most important thing had been the one provided by the Grapemaster, with his help, he had come one step closer to reaching that single thought, the one that will unite the spirit and physical planes again.īrewmaster – 5 piece Set of Order of the Caretos To this day half of the Caretos tribe states that the Brewmaster collapsed first and the other half say that it was their own Grapemaster that touched the ground faster. And it was there, in the Northern Lands in the distant valley of Caras while fighting the Grapemaster of the Order of the Caretos, in the midst of a crazed red wine drunkenness, that for a tiny fraction of a moment Mangix grasped a glimpse of the spiritual world. Those who were there to see it said that the spirits came down to earth to watch it for themselves such was the spectacle put on by these two masters. It was a fight as much as a spectacle of magic and fear inducing techniques. When his training was complete the Grapemaster challenged him for a final duel, a duel of mind, body and soul. For many months Mangix trained with the Grapemaster in the ways of the Fear Spirit, the one technique than once learned can paralyze even the most courageous man. The Caretos leader saw in Mangix the same values that his own tribe had cherished for thousands of years so he took him in as one of their one. But unlike Oyo’s, grapes and not malt, is the chosen vehicle to communicate with the spirits. The Order of the Caretos is a powerful and ancient one that, much like Mangix’s own Order of the Oyo, strives to reach enlightenment through drinking. ![]() There he met the ancient tribe of the Caretos and its leader the Grapemaster. It was in the Northern Lands, only accessible through the old gates of Miraterra that he reached the distant Valley of Caras also known to the common folk as the Valley of Fear. Like all that came before him, his travels took him to many strange places and, more often than not, he met different cultures, old and new. Mangix wandered the land as Brewmaster for many years. So he would train with them and all that etc.Īs for the fear inducing items, Andrade had this idea that comes from some festivals that occur in the northern regions of Portugal and Spain where people dress up in these scary costumes with scary masks that are supposed to scare others. We talked about this idea that it would be cool to imagine that Mangix (the Brewmaster name before he became B.) would have travelled through all these lands and that somehow he came across a land where wine was used to achieve the same results as the Order of the Oyo. Andrade drew some doodles while we talked. So me and Andrade met up in a small cafe a few days ago and talked about the background and theme for the Brewmaster.

I modelled, textured and rigged and Andrade did the concept art, illustrations and color design. We called this set “Order of the Caretos” and the submission was done before the 19th of November of 2012. Me and my good friend Filipe Andrade teamed up to create a 5 set piece for the DOTA2 Polycount contest. The Brewmaster is a character from the videogame DOTA2 by Valve Software. ![]()
