I'd love for you to take a crack at my character, Sharantyr <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />.I did a drawing (well sorta) of Sharantyr, based on another drawing I came across on the web (apologies to the artist, it was a while back and there was no sig) as a base to work from. I made a vector drawing of it in Freehand then changed things till I got what I wanted; changing the hair, clothes, hands, etc. Then brought it in photoshop and colorized it. It's an ok job... but it's not really that great. Arms and hand look off, the face doesn't look quite right.The drawing was made to show what he wore at his wedding, so it doesn't show his "adventuring" outfit. He normally wears a rich black velvet and suade robe (the two cloths combined however you think will look good), and simple soft boots (whatever color looks good). The only items visible are: a naganita with a katana sized-blade on it that he wields, two rings, a satchel (Heward's Handy Haversack), and a red-stone amulet (you can see half of it in my drawing, but you're welcome to change it. The stone can be removed from the amulet if that matters). The most unusual thing is that he has stark white-skin and  long black hair. Sharantyr is 25 years old, but could pass for 30. He normally doesn't look happy and has spent a fair amount on his intimidate skill <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />. Not that he normally looks angry... just serious.A uber-quick (or as quick as i can) bio on Sharantyr... The campaign is a Forgotten Realms campaign, so if the names means little, my apologies. Sharantyr is a mulhorandi (egyptian) wizard whose family is obsessed with vengence (they worship Horus, god of vengence) on the Thayan wizards that killed the patriarch of the family.When following his siblings on their quest, it led them to the underdark. His brothers were quite powerful and had made alliances in the past with one of the houses of the drow and those contacts were used to find one of the Thayan wizards that was hiding out among the drow... anyway, to make a long story short...At some point, Sharantyr was captured by the Thayan wizard and was tortured for inforomation by using the "Flensing" spell (FRCG) which peels the very skin off of your body. During this ordeal his brother and a handful of Drow allies burst in, killing the wizard. Unfurtunately Sharantyr's brother died as well. One of the drow there (who owed a debt to his brother and saw a potential future contact) healed Sharantyr. Now weather it was that she did the minimum healing required or simply an evil joke from Lloth is unknwon; but his skin did not heal properly... leaving it bone-white. No healing seems to cure this effect.He wears his hair long since it's a sign of "slavedom" among the Mulhorandi and he sees himself as a slave to vengence until his quest is completed... All that was a while ago, but that explains his appearance.I've been playing this character for two years and it's been a ton of fun! I'd love to see a proper drawing of him <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />, which I can colorize too <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />. If you do, thank you with all my heart, if you don't, you've still done an amazing thing for many of the people here! Thank you either way!</blockquote>
