Character Sketch :: Hollow Man"Roll up, roll up! Come see the grotesque, those human curiosities where nature has gone awry! See the Hollow Man, born without a heart and left with a gaping cavity where it should be! He's no 'gentle giant,' but be thankful he hasn't the heart to care enough to rip off your arms! This way, this way..."

A fine sell. Quietly hunched over behind the curtain backstage, he listened and gave a single, approving nod. A fine sell, even if it was entirely untrue.

He had a heart. Place a hand on his malformed ribs, and you could feel it. He had lungs and organs as well, they only sat slightly differently in his body. That much he could say

Character Sketch :: EuchariahSuch a shame. The words echoed around him like a cloud of smoke—insincere condolences belched from lips that ran like a malfunctioning machine: always followed by a click of the tongue, a head shake, and a repetition.

Tsk, tsk. Such a shame. He could have been such a handsome man.

Perhaps it was true. More than likely it was. After all, The Man Upstairs had never been particularly unfortunate to look at. He stood tall, often head and shoulders over anyone native-born, but not as a wisp of a thing. No, he wasn't the sort of man that could be said to be carved of stone, but rather wound like a heavy rope. Long, tight, strong—

Wild Hunt :: LongmaLike any good story, this one does not begin where it began. It does, however, begin where it ends—at a funeral.

The village was not particularly big. Rather, it was frightfully small, and just as frightfully remote. That said, it was little surprise that every denizen turned out for something so important as the funeral of a good man.

—and it truly was each and every one: every man, woman, and child; every son, brother, and father; every maiden, mother, and crone. It was said even the dogs followed at the heels of their masters, even the songbirds gathered in the trees, and the livestock unable to free themselves from their pens

Eternal Exile :: Chapter 1A Rude Awakening

Cold.

It was the first thing he felt.

… no. No. That… wasn't quite correct. It was… the first thing of which he was aware.

Cold. Smooth. Stale. Some distant sort of understanding, yet without truly feeling it.

Any of it.

He groaned, the sound wet, clinging to the damp walls around him. There was something wrong, though, about that sound… so unfamiliar…

Eyelids sticking together, presumably from the residue of sleep, he finally managed to pry them apart. Then, after a moment of darkness, his vision slowly returned: grainy, dull around the edges, too bright at the center. He waited for it

Yet another Argonian. This is Eijya-Dahlkeen, V’dal’s teacher and mentor back in Black Marsh.

Eijya has a… very long history. He has been in Black Marsh for countless years now, though, and doesn’t much speak of his youth.

He is, when V’dal knew him, completely blind. Thankfully, he is a powerful seer in his own right, so that doesn’t much bother him.

(Holy shit, there’s actually a background. I’m terribly please with this.)

Can I just say that I really, really like his staff?

~CorpseWyrm Feb 11, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

I'm so glad! It is actually my favorite part. I just sort of... happened, and then the textures came out so nice. I wish you could see the original; it looks a little washed out here!

~Kaylith Feb 11, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

It's so awesome when things just get on the paper right! Maybe I'll get to visit you guys again sometime. At least I hope so.

~CorpseWyrm Feb 12, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

~Kaylith Feb 13, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

It would indeed!
