..Here's mine:
It was a long journey. Gerald had nearly finished his trek from his home at Hillsdale Kansas to the small Missouri town of Bassville. His cousin was getting married. It had taken him nearly two months, his rusty car having given out on the ruins of some ancient road only 30 miles into his 300 mile journey...
..Now has he walked through the woods one cool, misty morning, he came around a tree and was horrified to find his cousin, dead.
..He wailed and gnashed his teeth. Carl had been a good man, never raising his voice to anyone, always helping those in need when he could. Now here he lay, dead in the woods outside of his home town.
..Gerald pulled his prized possession from the knapsack that carried all he had left in the world, a Northern Gun manufactured NG-33 Laser Pistol, and swore revenge on those that had done this, no matter what it would take...
..So I'm interested to see what others have concluded from the picture, other than opinions of the quality of the art....

It reminds me of the Army poster where a soldier comes upon the body of another soldier. He bends down to see if the guy is ok.
The sniper's crosshairs are on the soldier that is seeing what happened to his buddy. The caption at the bottom read "Who is watching you". The warning is clear, what happened to the first guy can happen to you.
I think he comes across a body, realizes something killed the guy, and is now worried about his own butt.
He just found his buddy blown in half (I can't find his legs... anyone help?) and then looks up in terror as the glitterboy is still there with a big smile painted onto it's face

He's saying "I couldnt beat this guy in a stand-up fight since I don't have Hand to Hand skills. But I made sure to take Prowl so I can sneak attack him. Since his body is still here, I didn't shoot him with this pistol, um...I guess I hit him with it! And rolled a knockout! Score one for the vagabond!"
Looks to me like he's yelling at the viewer, "MY PLUNDER! MY STUFF! MY PRECIOUS!!!!!!!!"

That's not a gun. It's a bar of soap fastioned into a gun thanks to the art skill. The Vegabond is gonna BATHE IN THE BLOOD OF HIS ENEMY AND USE HIS BAR OF SOAP FASHINED INTO A GUN TO CLEAN HIMSELF. REAL HUMAN BLOOD BATHING!! AND HE'LL EAT THE REST OF HIM AFTER HE'S DONE BATHING IN THIS HUMAN BLOOD, BECASE HE A VEGABOND AND IS LIKE "I GOT THE SHORT END OF THE STICK IN RIFTS AND TO COMPENSATE ALL I GOT WAS A BAR OF SOAP(dispite the fact he's the only one who starts out with a bar of soap) SO I'M GONNA BATHE IN HUMAN BLOOD, AND IT IS THE BLOOD OF ALL PLAYERS WHO PASSED ME UP AND CHOSE TO BE A MIND MELTER OR DRAGON OR EVEN A FREAKING CITY RAT, YOU PASSED ME UP FOR A CITY RAT...GOD I HATE YOU, SO I'M BATHING IN THIS HUMAN'S BLOOD."

I think he made a really bad roll on his speed attribute roll and is trying to catch up with the group that obviously made a better roll on speed during character creation.

..Not to mention without the lower half of his body. Guess he was trying to atomize the top?

The guy is simply posing for the illustration for 20 credits so he can go buy a six pack of Zoom Beer.
I can almost hear Kevin Siembieda now: "Okay Earl, give me a fierce scowl... no, try to look meaner than that... like you're trying to scare off a whole platoon of CS soldiers... great, that's perfect!"
