Oh Anthinius. My nemesis.  ;D

I once had an emote fight with Anthinius's NPC guard when I was a noob. What a great PC. :)

Pretty sure that Decameron never played a non-great PC :) (and yes, I have a major RP crush on Decameron).

The people scattered gold-dust before my horse's feet;
But now I am a great king, the people hound my track
With poison in my wine-cup, and daggers at my back."

Yeah, not that I'm an expert artist-knower, but that does look like Biscuit's work.

Only character I ever had a portrait done for - Anthinius Oash sitting in the original Azure Dragon by Ourla.



I'm confused...isn't the bottom corner signed Megan Lara (i.e Biscuits)? 

Either way, great portrait. 

If I ever had to be artistic and not just crafty, it would be some crayon stick figure.
It would not be good.

As a side note, I'm glad everyone is following the rules in this thread and it hasn't been locked.  I've been waiting and waiting to be able to post a portrait of a past character and I have a little less than two weeks to continue waiting.




Yep, I am an AWFUL person for not double-checking that. It's been years and I thought to myself, Ourla, yeah that sounds familiar. Double-checked. Definitely Biscuits. Sorry about that, and edited in the original post! Whoops!

D'aww. <3

He sure loved fountains.
Modern concepts of fair trials and justice are simply nonexistent in Zalanthas. If you are accused, you are guilty until someone important decides you might be useful. It doesn't really matter if you did it or not.


Compliments to Briar.

Palimus Tor (left) and his trusted Scorpion, Kazar, who died (by obvious method) in the Copper War. Palimus was a little shorter and stockier than the picture shows, but I still just get seriously impressed by it.  Thanks to the player of Kazar for having it drawn.

Way back when I played a d-elf. Someone a few months after the PC was force-stored, sent me this drawing he/she had commissioned w.o my knowledge. Thought it was it's pretty neat and he/she sorta got mdesc and sdesc pretty spot on at the time.

Lusts for Blood of the Soh Lanah Kah



I don't know who the artist is / was.
Czar of City Elves.

Lusts was a pain in Kahrii's ass. That's an awesome picture!
All the world will be your enemy. When they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you; digger, listener, runner, Prince with the swift warning. Be cunning, and full of tricks, and your people will never be destroyed.

Oh hey I was in the Soh when Lusts got offered up

I can't remember if I was in Fangs or Soh when she was around, but the picture is seriously awesome. It's almost like Dark Sun pro artwork.

The Red Fang were out of the picture before Lusts for Blood was in-game.

Brynn, by far one of my favourite PCs, my first merchant and my longest lived character, in terms of days played.



One of the guys at Dman's gym is a professional artist and this was part of my birthday present last year.  He doesn't play Arm but Dman gave him Brynn's description and the description of a bunch of things she almost always wore and this is what he came up with.
I don't know if the picture can be enlarged or anything after it's posted [tech skills (novice)] but it's incredibly detailed.  You can see all the individual hairs on the quirri hide halter and the scales on the snakeskin pouch etc.  One of my favourite things about this picture is the rings she's wearing.  The one on her index finger is the one she designed for her mate, if you look at the details you can see the individual leaves and swords carved in it. 

She was also my first and only character to really spend the bulk of her time in Tuluk, she wasn't inked but one of the things she wanted more than anything was to get citizenship.  Alas, the end came before that long process was completed.




That picture reminds me of how sad she seemed and the sad story she told before mantis head.

Oh sheesh, that breed.

:P

I wanted to kill her so many times, but really, she was an amazing character from what I did see of her. I wish I had at least one character in all that time that got to really interact with her on any level besides 'Gosh, it's a breed. Ew.'

Yeah... so I'm an art geek, I guess.  The level of detail on the little pouch is ridiculous.
Quote from: BadSkeelz
Ah well you should just kill those PCs. They're not worth the time of plotting creatively against.

She's hot...Uh I mean... You know, for a filthy breed.

I enjoyed having a character that was able to interact with her. She was a fun character.
I am unable to respond to PMs sent on the GDB. If you want to send me something, please send it to my email.

At that point, there were very few people left who would have really, really cared about hearing that story.  One thing I was really glad for was that she did have the chance to share it, at least with one person.

I remember playing a Whiran that had a lot of back and forths with Lusts and another Soh. Probably the of most engaging long term conflict with another single PC that I've ever had. Good times.

Two Moons, Howls at Death, Pack leader of the Red Fangs and bringer of their demise. With his trophy-spear, dull black gems and demon-skull mask.

Soon to add, Two Moons standing alongside Claw and his mentor, Lash.
A staff member sends you:
"Normally we don't see a <redacted> walk into a room full of <redacted> and start indiscriminately killing."

You send to staff:
"Welcome to Armageddon."

omg

Two Moons is the reason I'm still playing this game.

My newbie self didn't realize half elves couldn't join the AoD and after being tossed out the gates by a militia sergeant and wandering into the salt flats to die, Two Moons found my breed, got him a mount, and sent him on the journey that led to him becoming my longest lived character to date.

She sure told me some sad stories. My PC went berserk when she died, threatened to kill the guy who escorted her, and got kicked from the outpost, then fell in the gith trench. Good times!

Also, for those Red Fang interested (also a particular dwarf, Po), send me the mdesc of your characters and what you'd like them to be wearing and I'll say if I can't get a tribal gathering put together.

Heh, wasn't she the one that cut my PC's still-beating heart out?

Good times. :)
