The Man Who was not there...

If you ask me who is my favorite OC amongst the Elves I created, I’ll tell you: Nox. 

In France, we’ve got a proverb that says: the more you love someone, the more you hurt him/her (well, something like that, it’s kind of hard to translate litterally). And Nox is definitely the Elf character who has the hardest life in my universe. I can’t tell you more because it’s a spoiler (you’ve to read the second book of Guerrier Loup (Wolf Warrior) to understand).

There is just two things I can say. 

First: my Elves are elemental benders (not all of them, but some of them are). But there is not just four elements, there are 6 of them: water, fire, earth, air (like everyone knows), natural electricity (like thunder or magnetic fields) and light and shadow (two intricates elements reunited as one even if some elves are just light benders or shadow benders). Nox is a light/shadow bender. A strong one, really powerful, born as a master of those elements, able to use them since he was a kid.

Two: he’s my own Severus Snape. :D

I tried to play with the different capacities of watercolours, and that was hard! o_O I wanted a really dark black to have a strong contrast between the light and the shadow, but need water in this dark page to have infiltration effects. At the end, it looks like what I’ve got in my mind but not completely. ^^;
