I needed some art therapy last night and my Dungeons & Dragons character, Anko, was happy to oblige!
Inspired by an Intimidation roll I made for her in our game to psych out an evil queen who was experimenting on people. Nothing gets Anko motivated faster than protecting the innocent. She let loose some full magical rage for this one!
She started off as a meek baker's daughter from a Tiefling ghetto and has since blossomed into a full-fledged Warlock that Eldritch Blasts evil queens in the face. I'm quite pleased with her development!
I'm still pondering on her design, but here are a few character notes:
- She hides her horns in wraps of hair. Unwrapped, these horns are somewhat small and her hair is actually quite long!
- She looks human with a normal skin tone, except for her claws, fangs, tail, red eyes, and a purple ombre to her black hair. She usually hides these features with her goggles, layers of skirts for her tail, filing down her nails, and hiding her smile when possible so as not to draw attention.
- Her book is based on Grimoire Weiss from Nier (and talks smack just as much). He usually hides in her book holster and communicates with her telepathically so as to avoid suspicion. He's already been booknapped once for talking too much and flying around in front of people!
- She has a magic sling that materializes at will, but is not shown here. She also carries a sickle sword she can barely lift (-1 to strenght lol). (Who really needs to attack with weapons when you have Eldritch Blast?)
- Lots of spell components on her belt!
- Her Patron is the Fiend, or so she thinks! She's still unraveling the mystery of who and what her Patron actually is and what her powers truly are. Her theory right now is she accidentally sold her soul to a Fiend when signing a contract to enter a school of magic.
Maybe one day I'll actually finish a pic of her to color! She's much fun to play and draw.
