I draw most of my characters on my own, but I've got two characters I've been trying to visualize and been unable to. So far, the characters I've got here are all from the same series of stories. I may expand them later on...

Thanks, to whomever does this for me. I'll greatly appreciate it!

Maramros Thorncloak: He's a 24 years old wizard with blond hair and blue eyes. He's of moderate build and stands about 5'9" tall. Personality-wise, He tends to act on his instincts rather than thinking things through logically. Because of this, he can be very impulsive. He left home shortly after his training ended and was soon captured by people who forced him to work for them. Typically wears a simple cotton shirt and comfortable pants. When it?s cold, he wears a heavy, hooded robe.

Victoria Mapleglen: a 40 year old Half-elf. She has dark brown hair and golden eyes. She stands about 5ft. 4in. and has a light build. Typically wears tight brown leather pants, soft cotton shirt and a brown leather jacket. In foul weather, she throws a black cloak over it. She is outgoing and friendly, joking with and teasing the people around her. However, when the need arises she is a capable and well-trained fighter and is very serious during battles. She can be rather tactless at times and rarely censors her thoughts, saying exactly what's on her mind.

Here's the Big Bad that I use in many of my stories...

Meltech: He's a 36 year old spellcaster (mage) with thick dark hair, a beard and mustache and dark brown eyes. He's rather tall (at least six feet) with a moderate build. He's handsome, but cold, calculating and cruel. He takes pleasure in the pain of others and is a generally nasty character. I've never decided what he should wear really, so have fun with that.

A new character I made a short while ago. I've already drawn him, but I'd love to see what other people do with him.

Aristotle Standish
Also called: Ari
Codename: Sagittarius
Position: Assistant to the Representative from Shynia to the US
Age: 45 years
Powers: Telepathy (must be within 100 feet and know of his power for it to work)
Appearance: He looks about eighteen years old, has short, shaggy chestnut hair and wide apple green eyes. He also has a pair of delicate-looking antennae and sturdy pointed ears. His strange features are the result of his mixed heritage. His father's mother was a Norabardian and his own mother is a Ruby Elf.
Clothes: He normally wears a comfortable tunic top with lacing on the front and soft comfortable pants with loafers.
Personality: mischievous, clever, outgoing, cheerful, doesn't usually speak (although he can)
Note: Officially, his job is to keep Ryu's schedule and make sure he is on time to his meetings. As an agent, he has been assigned the mission of finding out as many state secrets as possible.
Partner: Klytie Darkhollow

New character...

Name: Ryuko Shintani/Lindsey Stryker

Personal info:
Ryuko is a vampire, originating from Japan. She became a vampire when she was 24 years old, but she's never looked her actual age. She's close to 800 years old now and still looks the same as she did when she first became a vampire. Lindsey Stryker is an alias she uses in the business world. She owns a toy company.

Physical description:
Hair: really long pinkish hair (it goes about half-way down her back when she wears it loose) that she wears in all manner of styles - pigtails, a ponytail, loose, in barrettes... just about anything else you can imagine
Eyes: wide, bright green eyes
Other: rather short and youthful looking (she looks like she's between 14 and 16 years old); sharp fangs; she usually wears glasses when she's using her "Lindsey Stryker" persona

You can find a reference picture here, but I'd like to see what others do with this description.

Clothes:
She often wears a grey or brown suit jacket with a white dress shirt, a red ribbon on her neck and a red and green plaid skirt. However, she may also wear frilly sundresses with wide brimmed hats or sailor dresses maybe with a matching hat. She usually wears either sandels or knee socks and dress shoes (not pumps).

Since she's lived in all manner of times and places, you can really dress her however you want. The only real qualifier is that she dresses very "cute" (almost like a little girl.)

Personality:
Ryuko is incredibly bright; she is almost always cheerful; during the day, she gets very sleepy and that can make her a little short tempered; in spite of her youthful appearance, she is very mature


I really hope someone here decides to draw her. Just let me know if you do...

Here's another new character:

Character Full Name: Danior Shadowmane
Age: 29 years
Gender: male
Race: Sangober ("nightponies", dark colored ponies with two curled horns; he's quite typical of the breed; they are kin to alicorns and cavial small explanation of an alicorn)

Appearance: Danior has the ability to transform into a human and, in fact, spends much of his time in that form. In his human form, Danior is rather short, standing barely five feet tall, and has lean muscles on a sturdy frame. He has jade green hair that falls to his shoulders in the back, while his bangs are just long enough to fall into his eyes. Usually, he wears it parted in the middle with a bit of hair from behind each ear tied at the back of his head.

His eyes are round and dark blue in color. His face is also rounded with soft edges. He has sharply pointed ears. His skin is smooth and has a pale golden cast to it. Finally, his human form has sharp teeth that he uses to drink blood. Unlike a vampire, Danior doesn't actually feed on blood and, in fact, gets very sick after he drinks it. He only bits people after he's used his telepathic abilities for long periods of time. He uses the life energy contained in the blood to replenish his reserve of psychic energy.

Normally, he wears a linen tunic and pants of a pale blue color. At his waist, he wears a bright purple satin sash. His tunic is held shut at the neck by a silver bar. He also wears a dark purple cloak, clasped at the neck or on his left shoulder by a silver brooch with a blue gem at its center.

On the rare occasions that he is in his true form, he looks like a black pony with a jade green mane and tail. His eyes retain their dark blue color. He also has a pair of silver horns that curl back over his head, rather like a sheep.

He also had third form that he uses only slightly more often than he does his true form. In this third, intermediate form, he looks basically the same as in his human form, except he retains his horns and his black pony-like ears.

Reference Picture (fullview for details)

Personality: Danior is generally quiet and peace loving. He always carries with him a silver medallion on a chain that has a likeness of his mother on it. He often shows the medallion to people and asks them if they seen anyone who looks like that. At times, he can be rather shy, but once he gets to know someone, he is very friendly with them.

In addition to being shy and quiet, Danior is often a little too trusting of people. He wants very much to believe the best of people, making it easy for people to take advantage of him. The main reason for his shyness is, in fact, that someone did take advantage of his trusting nature. However, it doesn't stop him from repeating the same mistake.

After using his telepathic abilities for extended periods of time, Danior needs to replenish his energy by feeding on the blood of some living creature. Since he is an obligate herbivore, he is very ill after feeding. Because of this, he will only use his powers if he feels it is absolutely necessary.

Weapons: Although Danior is naturally a gentle person, he does carry a couple weapons. As he is basically untrained in fighting, he uses a wooden club for self-defense. He also carries a small, simple knife at his belt that he mainly uses to cut up fruits and vegetables and to carve wood.

Skills: As Danior travels, he carves wooden toys and figures to sell as a way of earning a living. He likes to sing and play music, but is far too shy to do so in front of others. He has a pleasant voice and some skill with an ocarina, but he's not what anyone would consider a professional.

Background: Danior was born in a little village in the far north. His family, being of a rather clannish people, was made up of not only his parents and himself, but also included his cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents. This meant that, although he was technically an only child, his cousins were very much like siblings to him.

When he was ten years old, his father left their village to retrieve an ancient tome from a library in some southern city. When he failed to return after two years, Danior's mother left to search for him and never returned.

When he became twenty-eight years old, he was declared legally an adult. At that time, he decided to leave in order to find out what had become of his parents and the book that his father had left to retrieve. He didn't know exactly where they'd set out for, so he headed for the nearest large city.
