The Art of Captain Farron from Riftbound TCG

The moment your eyes lock onto Captain Farron, you feel the roar of Noxian engines and the crack of metal on metal.

This piece doesn’t whisper “orderly march,” it bellows “unstoppable charge.”

Six More Vodka’s illustration hits with the weight of chain-flails and the heat of battlefield embers, setting a mood of raw power and unyielding aggression.

Illustration Breakdown

At first glance, Farron’s hulking frame dominates the foreground—a living battering ram clad in spiked armor, flail raised high.

His missing visor and dented breastplate speak to countless confrontations survived. Behind him, silhouetted Trifarian soldiers brace beneath the same onslaught, their angular forms echoing Farron’s menace.

The composition is dynamic: diagonal lines of swinging chains slice across the image, while a muted sepia sky and drifting ash convey a world on fire.

Every brushstroke—from the glint on Farron’s gauntlet to the spray of dust beneath his foot—ensures you feel the motion and momentum.

Gameplay Integration  

Captain Farron’s mechanics land with the same force his flail swings. As a 4-cost, 5-power Unit with the Trait Trifarian, Farron stakes a solid board presence, but it’s his Assault 1 aura that captures the art’s spirit.

Just as the painting shows Farron leading the charge and emboldening his troops, in play, “Other friendly units here have Assault 1” turns bystanders into aggressors.

That extra +1 🛡 is less a defensive trinket and more a calculated advantage, ensuring your vanguard can force through trades or surprise the opponent.

Farron’s art—an emblem of frontline inspiration—mirrors his role as a battlefield catalyst in the game.
