SF&F Picture 36 out of 50 by Nina Eydelman.

SciFi and Fantasy Art: Neiru

This is a rogue character I played in EverQuest (which I quit a long long time ago) who I loosely based on my 2 favorite fantasy characters that I didn't create: R.A. Salvatore's Drizzt and Dinin. He got Drizzt's niceness and survivor mentality but none of his fighting prowess, Dinin's brains and pseudo-cowardice but none of his malice. I won't bother telling the whole back story, lets just say he was forced out of Neriak and had to move to Greater Faydark (where light elves live). His name means both 'hope' and the future form of the verb 'to be', and is a very positive and optimistic word that defines his character. He never travels alone and make friends by helping others, but he trusts no one, and would not question if his companions decided to betray him. To sum up his character: when he goes to sleep, he does not expect to wake up alive. It's drawn in markers, pencil, and is the first pic that I used Adobe Photoshop with!

29 Mar 2003	Karigan Greenleaf	Loading... I agree, he is bleeding bad. Two questions: Why is he so beat up? Also, why does it seem like he's in a dungeon or something? Wait, one more. In between these two facts, how can he be smiling?! But good light work.
