"You know not what you meddle with."

"I'm meddling with your FACE. How about that?"

--

I decided to have a spot of dorky fun and based a new character design off myself. Perhaps in some strange fantasy land filled with wonder and magic and unicorns, this is what I'd look like. I bestowed upon this chap my coloration and some core personality traits. The sillier ones, of course.

I imagine him to be some kind of rogue thief-mage kicked out of his guild for tinkering with the "dark arts". He's not very good at them, and though he's clever, he tends to be kind of a spaz. He wanders the lands, picking pockets, blowing things up, and searching for his raison d'etre.

He spends too much money on video games instead of saving up for college or something.

Oh, wait, that's me.

I don't know what's in that bottle, but it looks delicious.

Kittybum took the liberty of naming him Vendrick. If you can figure out the joke, you win a gold star.

kittybum Says:

Haha it feels weird for you to call me kittybum.. like it's my full name or something. Kittius J. Bum, Esquire. ;D

Like I said before, really loving all the visual details here.. there's always something new to catch your eye when you look at it again, like the glow on the bottom of the dagger... I didn't notice that before XD It's pretty awesome.

Oh Vendrick. Take me now 8D

hchano Says:

Since I am a player of WoW/Diablo, I saw the potion and immediately assumed it was a rejuv pot :| sigh. lol

You seem to have fixed the blade. Looks good... and inside that bottle, it's clearly pudding. Yes pudding. MAGIC pudding.

Gom Jabbar Says:

This is acceptable.

Singol Darkwood Says:

Well, you know what they say about hubris.

It goes good on flatbread.

... Wait, that's hummus... crap.
