This may be the wrong place for this kind of question, but I didn't see any forum that fit better.
Anyway, my group and I play almost exclusively online, roll20. As a result, we don't have the physical items normal for the games, no props or set pieces or minis or dice sets or anything like that. Well, I'm getting married next year, and naturally, my adventuring party is also my wedding party. I am thinking a great groomsman gift to get everyone would be custom miniatures of each of their characters. Everyone has their own character, so I can easily make a custom mini using a service like Hero Forge or whatever, for everyone... except for our DM.
So here is my question; does anyone have any ideas on what sort of gift I should get for the DM that fits the theme of custom minis? Should I create a mini for a beloved NPC instead of a party member? Or ask them directly if they have a favorite character they've played in the past they'd want immortalized in plastic, thus ruining the surprise of the gift? Or do I just throw money at the problem, and instead of getting everyone their own characters, I get everyone the full party set, to avoid leaving anyone out? That's probably the worst solution, since that'll cost five times as much, but I'm open minded.
Also, if anyone is reading this that shouldn't be... shhhhh... it's a secret.
