[QUOTE="Anabstercorian, post: 322083, member: 2550"] [b]More Evocative Imagery - Because I'm full of myself[/b] This is what an Epic Shadowdancer should look like, or at least could. A bright, sunny day, the sun is out, the sky is blue, the plants are green and everyone is smiling. The landscape is partially shadowed by a cloud. The shadowdancer is walking through, wearing gray clothing that hugs her skin and a light black cloak. Half of her body is in the shadow, the other half is in light. The half that's in shadow is nothing but a nondescript gray smear. She's smiling enigmatically at a gawking peasant youth who's mind is struggling to comprehend this. The shadow she casts on the earth is stretching far past where it should, and doesn't quite look like her. This is what an Epic Monk should look like, or at least could. The scene is largely empty. There are no clouds above. The sunlight is harsh and bright, though the sky is a brilliant blue. The monk is balancing carefully on the tip of one foot at the very peak of a mountain. On closer examination, she is not actually touching the mountain. She is balancing on a single blade of grass. It does not bend beneath the weight of her enlightened spirit. She wears magical gems and tattoo's all over her body, but is nearly naked, even though frost coats her form and the sun must sear her flesh raw at this altitude. Her eyes are closed. She is meditating. This is what an Epic Barbarian should look like, or at least could. A massive jungle, filled with Marilith demons entwined through the trees, armed with dozens of weapons. The air is filled with flying needles. The barbarian is swinging through the trees, wielding a weapon that glows with incredible light. He is holding the greataxe in both hands, and the vine in his feet. He snarls with wide eyes, foaming at the mouth slightly, and several severed snake demons drape through the trees behind him. His skin is peppered with needles. One is in his eye. He shows no signs of discomfort, only rage. This is what an Epic Sorcerer should look like, or at least could. A nearly naked, mysterious looking handsome man, with a gaze that could cut a man down but no other obvious abilities. His hair is red, almost fiery, and he is girded in several less than memorable magical devices. He is standing on the surface of the sun, surfing on a solar flare. [/QUOTE]
