Exactly what it says. Obsidian had a perfectly fine tile for them but for some reason it has been replaced with the default b symbol. I have no idea why this is but if I had to guess, I'd go with a conflict of some kind with the new tileset update. But I dunno for sure so it could be something else.
Speaking of NPCs lacking a tile, the Jotun civ from the artic additions submod could really use some love. I haven't seen any spritework for them. But that's just me going on a tangent, my primary concern is fixing the Blendec issue.

Are you speaking of the vanilla Blendecs or the Fortress Defense Foul Blendec civ?

For me, Fortress Defense Foul Blendecs show up as 'b' using default settings (Phoebus, I think?) Haven't seen any regular Blendecs.

I mean the fortress defense Blendecs yes. Seems like the guy below you has the same problem as well.

The problem is simple: Obsidian Soul never made graphics for fortress defense blendecs. They simply dont exist.
I could rearrange some files to use the same sprites for both, but the invading blendecs, which wear different weapon/armor types, would not display them correctly. A swordblendec would look the same as a spear or bowblendec.
I'd have to make new graphics for all of them.

" but the invading blendecs, which wear different weapon/armor types, would not display them correctly. A swordblendec would look the same as a spear or bowblendec."
Honestly this would be perfectly fine. At least they'd have some kind of artwork rather than just being a letter. If I want to know the specifics I'll just 'l'ook at them.
