This guy is from when I was feeling permissive as a GM, and let a PC become a liche... which was actually sort of fun. Kind of killed his people skills, though... This is an old picture... god... 10 years old!!?? I still like it, from my 'woodcut'-style period I guess. Done with pencil, though I played with the contrast in Photoshop.

Nice, like you say in a Woodcut Styley, adn works very well with it... ohhhh creepy

Eye-catching style...No doubt.

You should ressurect this style in your repetoire...this would be an outstanding style to use in plate illustrations of events that may have happened in the world...like those scenic murals that are always shown when the backstory of an anime is played at the beginning.

At least, that's the kinda flavor I get from this image.

:-) Zachariah Campbell replies: "You know, that's funny. I know EXACTLY what you're talking about. I should try this style again, just to see if I can still pull it off! And the stylization does give things a "finished" look... "

Interesting crown...

Does it double as an incense holder?

:-) Zachariah Campbell replies: "Good question... I think I kind of saw his head like a smokestack, constantly spewing forth foul, foetid, decay-wrought air. I always envisioned things as nasty as liches as being so "wrong" that even being around them was was bad for you. Of course, the idea of an incense burner is actually pretty cool... being a "social" lich, he needs something to kill the stench of death! ; )"

I do not know why, but this reminds me of GWAR. Alot. Perhaps the large shoulders and elaborate costume. Yeah. That's what it is.

:-) Zachariah Campbell replies: "Heh. GWAR!! Yeah, it fits, except if he was a member of GWAR, he'd also have an enormous spiked codpiece or something. ; )"

This guy is definitely my new best friend im tellin u he is kickin plus he looks like he is pushin up daisies. Very awesome drawin.

:-) Zachariah Campbell replies: "Yeah, the problem is that he has a tendency to pass tomb-rot on to all of his close friends... now he's a lonely lich. So sad."
16 Oct 2002:-) Stanton F. Fink
Yes, tombrot is so annoying.
Plus the cost of anti-tombrot ointment is outrageous.

Then again, Jaynai gave me an interesting idea...
A lich who doubles as his own planter?

:-) Zachariah Campbell replies: "I always kinda got the impression that undead and plant life didn't really go together so well... something about being an unholy abomination seems like it would make for bad fertilizer.)"

"I am skeletor, overlord of evil, nyehehehe!"

:-) Zachariah Campbell replies: "Heh... if only you knew... 2"

nice staff. Must be useful for hitting something in the stomach with - having those spikes 12

The really funny thing about him is.. I believe his favourite weapon was the Battle Axe. But his group at one point ended up landing the mother of all magic item hauls and pretty much everything on him there does something funky!

:-) Zachariah Campbell replies: "Actually, didn’t that staff actually transform INTO a battleaxe? I remember he got lich-ified shortly after being killed by his brother, and shortly before killing his brother back and taking his staff. 2

And yeah... Aracor was fun the way that he was totally laden down with magic junk. I was never a fan of gratuitous magical jujnk, but on him the overkill worked. Heh."
