Some of the art here is amazing - I wish I knew how to draw more than just stick figures. <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=":)" /> In any case, I also have a humble request:Borik BloodwatcherHalf-Orc Barbarian3/Ranger 2Borik is 18 years old (equivalent to early 20s in a human),about 6 feet tall, around 200 pounds, and muscular (18 Strength), though not in an Arnold Schwarzenegger kind of way...more like Russell Crowe in Gladiator. He's not ugly, for a half-orc, but he's not necessarily attractive, either (Charisma 9). He has long hair, pulled back tightly in a braid or tail of some sort, and he has no other visible facial or body hair. He had a red lightning-bolt tattoo on the left side of his face that goes over his left eye, and other tattoos as well...possibly celtic, something with a stag motif as that is his totem. He is wearing a well-worn chain mail shirt, going for function over form,wears a shoulder-guard on his right shoulder, durable pants, and nice traveling boots with a fur lining(Boots of the Winterlands). He also wears an amulet, but any non-evil design works there. He has two weapons, a short bow and an orc double axe, both of which can be strapped to his back when he needs to be mobile. Other than those, he travels light, with only a sturdy belt pouch. His hands are rough, and his fingernails are filed almost into claws. While he is very strong, he also moves fairly gracefully(Dexterity 14) - he spends much of his non-adventuring time as a hunter and tracker, and has been toughened up by long, solitary exposure to freezing winds and quiet forests (Constitution 17). He is a cunning half-orc, for one of his profession (Wisdom 13), and enjoys making others think he is less intelligent than he really is (Intelligence 12). I think what I envision is having some celtic and Native American imagery, turning Borik into the 'noble savage', but more practical than noble. Sorry if this is confusing to anyone.If anyone knows of a place where I can actually commission a portrait like this (for payment), please, let me know - and then I won't clog up the busy line of folks here.</blockquote>
