[QUOTE="Enkhidu, post: 1485253, member: 351"] Hi all! I've never actually asked for a character portrait before, as most of the time I'm satisfied with my own mental pictures of characters and action, but over in the [URL=http://enworld.cyberstreet.com/showthread.php?t=16228]Small Beginnings[/URL] story hour on these boards we are putting together an annoted version of our first story arc and are thinking about putting in some artwork in the free pdf we're putting together for our fans. When I saw this thread and looked through it, I talked with my partner in crime and we decided to find out two things: one, would anyone be interested in taking on something like this (even if its only for practice), and two, would their artwork mesh well with the story hour itself. In any event, we figured the best place to start is with a portrait of our lovable halfling bard, Roscoe P Tosscobble, or "Pack" as his friends know him. Pack is small even for a halfling (slight of build, slightly shorter), and has a look of cherubic innocence about him. He's an energetic sort of fellow, right on the cusp of adulthood, yet perpetually a kid at heart. Excitable, naive, trusting: all of these could describe Pack, but he would probably describe himself as simply "helpful." If someone needs a bit of string, he'll have it. If someone needs fishhooks, he's got them. And if someone needs... well you get the idea. As a result, Pack is usually covered with pouches, bags, and pockets, all of which seem to be full of not even Pack knows what. In addition, Pack never goes anywhere without "Pack's Pack": a huge (for a halfling - Pack's Pack is nearly as large as Pack himself!) backpack full of useful bits and as covered in pockets as the halfling himself. Lastly, Pack is from a village far to the north, and as such is usually dressed warmly. He's also an accomplished harpist and plays it absentmindedly when he has a chance. For more info about Pack (or, if you'd like to tackle more illustrations from the story) feel free to check out the story hour (linked above) or contact me at steve at leaman dot us. Not dot com, but dot us. I'm anxious to see different takes on this little guy. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
