"unlikely hero (Skull)" by Zachariah Campbell

Due to their points of egress (often old tombs), appearance, and tendency to vest themselves in the ransacked burial finery of ancient kings, Wights are often taken as the malevolent spirits of the old race. This may be close to the truth however, as Wights themselves often claim lineage to the Titans of old, and that they are now twisted by their eons of hiding underground. However, Wights are notoriously untrustworthy, so this claim is suspect.

'Skull' is a Wight mercenary character from an old RPG group of mine... he's no hero, but somehow has ended up fighting the good fight on many occasions. Once, Skull's death's-head-helmet protected unusually fine features that almost allowed him to pass for human. Now it is said it conceals disfigurements such as would make him a pariah even among his own people...

This is a pencil sketch. I still need to touch up the arms, but I like the way it came out so far.
