This is a Highly detailed miniature of a Cukeman for Dungeons & Dragons. 

This model was created by Schlossbauer who makes amazingly accurate models of the Monster Manual creatures and provided by Commercial Licence.

In Dungeons & Dragons, a Cukeman is an unconventional creature typically used for humorous or lighthearted campaigns, though it is not part of the official lore. The name "Cukeman" is likely a playful term derived from the combination of "cuke" (a common abbreviation for cucumber) and "man." This creature is often depicted as a humanoid figure with distinct, cucumber-like features, such as a greenish skin tone, a smooth, elongated body, and perhaps an expression that mirrors the crisp, cool nature of its supposed vegetable origins.

Cukemen are generally not designed to be formidable opponents in battle. Instead, they may serve as comic relief or quirky NPCs (non-player characters) that add flavor to a campaign. Their abilities might be based on their association with nature or plants, potentially allowing them to heal others, control plant life, or resist certain environmental conditions like extreme heat. Their vegetable-like appearance may also grant them immunity to some toxins, as they are "rooted" in the idea of a hardy, naturally resilient creature.

Though Cukemen may have a sense of humor and are often seen as friendly, they can also be portrayed as misunderstood beings. Some may suffer from stereotypes due to their unique appearance, or their motives might be questioned by other characters in the game. As with many homebrew creatures, the Cukeman's role depends on the Dungeon Master's creativity, with some choosing to make them endearing, others as peculiar oddities, or even a mischievous nuisance. Ultimately, the Cukeman represents an imaginative and whimsical aspect of Dungeons & Dragons, showcasing how players and DMs can create entertaining and memorable moments in the game.
