Vampirella by Adion.🦇🧛♀️
woo. adion reference. please ignore the like 3 prev heroforge models/designs
sometimes the way it does hair annoys me but it suits the not actual hair thing he has going on, and the gold n silver looks good. i left the little bits of blue as a not to their mer heritage and the face is blank cause its a character design choice now. the big chest thing looks cool but i am not drawing for the life of me, there was more accurate armour to the simpler design but it looked stupid and this works better for the whole golden warrior of light.
god bless heroforge im sorry noone actually buys the miniatures. thanks for the amazing reference/character resource. [the faces are p bad tho like use it for anything other than to get an idea of the charterers face]
i spent to much time on one frame but heyy. if i was doing this properly the scales near the scars would be fuked up and id make the hair more sea plant-y looking. its halfway between 'perpetually wet' hair and 'that slimy thing will grab and eat you' it may be slightly sentient but who knows. might just be the ghosts
ok im slowly getting more of the design down. sun motifs everywhere, and if u look close enough and remember the stained glass windows then the metal split skirt thing references the sides of the path, with the breastplate having the sun :)
also big ass sword. im actually following what my character had at the time. the light gray is kinda ment to be a chainmail shirt and the ones on the arms are not, they are the forearm guards. but im not done yet so thats not obvious. this picture is the focal point of like 9 frames so more detail than normal
one thing i love about the intersection of my analytical skills and my creative ones is i can be both creator and onlooker in a way.
i know i didnt draw adions face because i couldnt be asked but also at the same time the strong theme of de-personalization also gives valid reasoning! especially so early after their rebirth, her humanity comes from the people they save and as much as the followers of lathander extend kindness to adion, he still wont accept it.
he only accepts it from other people as he sees it as part of the saving and also finds preventing them fussing over or expressing worry for her distresses the people. the followers of lathander should, in his eyes, understand how she is not a creature to be pitied or humanized. you would not care for a automaton or a weapon
[but you should! that analogy falls apart! you should care for and upkeep your weapons! i lovee making characters justify their beliefs with analogies or comparisons that fall apart!]
mind made up. adions gender is duty and then when u get to know them its boygirl and then when u reallly get to now them its corpse.
boygirlcorpse swag. the inherent transgenderism of memory loss and viewing your body as a tool and using that tool to atone for your corpysness crime against god.
funnest character design is dashing butch buff tall spear wielding paladin but u take the glamor off and half his face is rotting off and her armor is stained red because of the blood constantly weeping from the neck wound. we glorifying the knight the corpse and the wound<3
but fr in a world full of diffent races gender is highly dependable and in more mixed areas matters little. her orginal race is merfolk and tell me they have human basic gendersTM. these bitches on the deluxe pack.
honestly cant wait to plug adion into pwotr becuase a. we havent had a dnd session in months and i love n miss my baby. b. i will be forced to hammer down a cannon apparance. c. adapting him to the world of pwotr will be real fun. d. i will have to pick a gender which is gonna be even harder [but im happy having him be referred to w she/her more cause in dnd it was dysphoric but will not as much in like. a game. e. material to write fic!!!! links to a but im keeping adion as someone who i dont have infinite power over the narrative with. so if shit gets fuked thats canon baby!! [will have a what happened and a streamlined version. like the streamlined dnd would not include the getting frightened. cause that was emabrassing and not rlly in charecter]. d. the game looks so cool and i cant wait to play!!!! only 10 days left!

anyway here have some snippets. [edit: this is long so the rest is under a read-more]
pov the detective mage, as they think through, and find out the ultimate source of adions powers, as the party is slowly worn down in their journey through the unyielding wilderness.
-
the string of beads around adions neck has saved countless lives, the power eminateing from them was obvious to the detective, glowing beads of sunshine, nestled between flesh and under-cloth.
they had not seen the beads yet, though they had speculated privately and to the other magic user of the party many times on that subject. were they made of special materials to hold such magic, hidden due to their value? or made from rituals kept secret by their fellow followers, cast with the strength of the reborn sun, to renew with the dawn?
the answer was not as grand as they had speculated, wandering the markets of the dock-city, away from the ever-watching eye of their healer and the city guard. but is was more valuable in terms of the wealth of information it gave them on their quiet and lionhearted companion.
