Ohboyohboyohboy it looks AWESOME! I love the armor you gave him, I just couldn't imagine anything looking wooden enough.

About the description: well, his motives and powers may seem mysterious to the dwarves of 200, although he is simply a rogue druid surviving as he can.

Also, don't you mind if I incorporate totally use your design with some slight adjustments in my pictures? You came up with something brilliant I could not think of. I gotta spend a bit more time refining my stuff before posting as well.

I just went the whole "let's-make-him-look-like-a-giant-creepy-tree-because-EVIL-ELF" route on the armor :V  Ironic thing is, my design's even more impractical and showy than yours when I was the one crying over HURRR BUT MUH SNEAKING PENALTY MUH TOO CONSPICUOUS. Lol.

Also I'd be immensely flattered if you used my design :-[ He's your dude in the end so, really, do what you like. Ahaha.

My design basically looked like a huge heap of metal scrap painted black to resemble a stereotypical edgy evil-champion suit or something. He's not a full-time ninja, lol.

Also, I think it's time for me to draw something more relevant... Can you elaborate on banshees, please? I was also thinking of adding them to "Dokem's Story", so some info about them would be nice.

Haven't put too much thought into banshees yet, unfortunately... hm.
They have an inborn, intuitive connection to arcane forces which is interwoven into the very fiber of their being, which is what powers their scream, and also gives them ESP, although they can't actually see the future -- despite this, gifted banshee seers can glean such detailed information about the present that guessing the immediate future becomes child's play. They aren't a particularly-scientific culture, however, and much if their innate gifts are veiled in ritual and superstition.
They do have gender, although they lack secondary sexual dimorphism and appear to be all-female to other species, with wide hips and narrow shoulders, high voices, and developed breasts. Banshees themselves have little concept of gender or gender roles and their languages almost never have gendered words or pronouns; in fact, they generally find other species' sexual dimorphism to be extremely-bizarre, disgusting even. They generally resemble thin, gaunt human women with greyish, ashen skin, red eyes, and greenish hair.
Banshee society is fairly-primitive technologically, although they do have knowledge of basic smelting methods and papermaking, and they primarily value vengeance and repaying one's debts above all else. In banshee culture, all favours are to be repaid in equal measure promptly, and by a similar token any slights are to be returned with equal fury -- according to their law, someone who commits a crime is absolved of wrongdoing if the victim had done something similar to them in the past that had not previously been taken vengeance for. I imagine most banshees carry a little black ledger recording every little nasty thing that's been done to them so they can get even, lol. Ditto for leadership figures, although the slights recorded are on a greater political level. All of this obviously means that they tend not to get on well with other civs, which is exacerbated by a general distrust of outsiders and the fact that there are a lot of nasty superstitions surrounding them within other races owing to their brutal culture, eerie appearance, and connection to dark forces -- "witch" is frequently used as a slur.

It's still plural you sonofabitch!

That's where I'd break a bottle and cut ya with it, but we don't have any bottles. Would a bludgeoning with a mug be a suitable substitute for a bottle stabbing?

I'll probably change it to "Mind The Clouds!" because it seems funnier to me for some reason, and because the level of canine massacre in recent weeks has been disappointing. Also Splint pls calm down.

@ImagoDeo: How's the prologue coming? Don't make me pester you repeatedly.

I'm obviously kidding around, duh.

Everyone know you use puppies tied to sticks to properly attain retribution for tiny slights.

Hey guys, remember that thing I said I'd draw?



I draw'd it. Jeff snoozing on the job.

Kinda meh-worthy, didn't even bother with shading or touching up the color in places, and I had a better version, but my power supply's cable came loose somehow and lost it. Me, being the genius I am, forgot to save it. Still, a little proud of it since I actually finished it and it only took 20-ish minutes. been trying to get out of my little art block.

Oh my, that's really good! You've improved a lot since the last drawing I've seen from you, lol. There's a sense of anatomy and the linework is much cleaner and gels better with the overall atmosphere. I think you should shade it if that's still an option at this point.

Also, just an addendum to the banshee trawl I posted a bit ago: they definitely aren't the whole "noble savage" archetype (not that anyone said they were, but). Yes, they have a certain ethical code, but it's not exactly rigorously-upheld and are not really arbitrated in any way except in dire circumstances, leading to frequent instances of banshees not bothering to make their vengeance strictly proportionate or generally be fair and even; in practice, "any slights are to be returned with equal fury" tends to translate to "You broke my vase? Well, I'm gonna kill your firstborn child, because I REALLY, REALLY LIKED THAT FUCKING VASE!"



In any case, @ImagoDeo has until midnight tomorrow to post something substantial or he's getting skipped.

Just fill the room with ten or so puppies.  That is revenge.
