SciFi and Fantasy Art: Jeza 'Sereth' Arine

I have started putting my talents to use by drawing character art and concept designs for an online role playing campaign called Raathi. This is my first requested piece for this project, done in prismacolor coloured pencils.

This elven woman walks with a natural grace and reflex not seen in many, always looking about her to watch those who pass by. Her skin, when showing, is the color of blood, her hair the whitest of white. When she looks at you, if her helm is off, you notice that her eyes, both pupil and iris, are the purest black to contrast the white, lending an unnerving quality to her gaze. Beneath each eye, a single line of darker red runs down each cheek, as if tears of blood had been stained onto her face. Her voice is soft and usually quiet, although at need be, loud and bold enough to shout across a crowded common room, and her entire demeanor radiates a quiet thoughtfulness about her.

Although often seen in dresses of red and white, regardless of her clothing, she almost always wears a high collar about her neck, and around that a necklace with a small talisman of a golden skull. For those close enough to her to ever see the collar removed, they would notice a tatoo, written in very small, flowing black ink, running up the side of her neck. it reads, "Ceoa ela failyaneoyc." ["Life is beautiful"]

On the bottoms of her wrists are almost always strapped two small blade sheathes, at her waist two more sheathes for short, curved swords, and across her back is always strapped at least one katana sheath (if not two), the sword's hilt rising over one shoulder. Often a longbow is also slung across her back.

The text is written in Tengwar, in the upper right hand corner, it says her name. On the katana it reads "revenge", and the stuff in the lower right is my signature.
