So, right. If I've any story or RP-characters that I'd like to see others try to draw, I will put them here. Thanks in advance, y'all. ^_^
Here's the first one, Mishiro.
Mishiro: Mishiro is a half-dragon; his mother was a human but his father was a transformed red dragon. So, his appearance reflects this. He is humanoid in shape, with no wings or tail, and a relatively human-shaped face (he has a very small, flat nose, but his cheekbones and jaw and such are human-shaped); however, he is covered with red scales, the size of the scales reflecting how flexible that part of his body is -- they are mostly large, with smaller scales around the joints, and tiny scales where there can be lots of movement, like on his toes, hands, and face. His eyes are a dirty (flecked with brown, in other words, and not all the same shade) golden yellow with pupils like a cat's, and his hair (neck-length and tapering to the nape of his neck in the back, but relatively fluffy and messy up higher, and bangs that just cover his eyebrows and sometimes droop into his eyes) is a blackish-brown (it's such a shade of dark brown that it sometimes looks black, basically). He has no visible ears; he just has very large, lighter-colored scales that slope down to a subtle ear-hole near the front of the scale on either side of his head where his ears would be, and his hair covers about half of their area. His canine teeh protrude slightly past his lip, and he grows his nails long and claw-like.
Mishiro wears relatively normal clothes; he likes shades of brown, mostly. His default clothes are a light brown tunic and trousers (tucked into dark brown boots), a dark brown vest, chainmail (though he doesn't wear it around the house), and a dark green cloak, though you can tweak these slightly -- just remember the theme, and that he never wears very warm colors, like red or orange. He also has an average-sized sword he keeps on a belt, with a sheath; there is nothing special about it. It is for cutting things, not looking at. Mishiro's only piece of "non-pratical" clothing is the silver pendant he wears; it has a long silver chain, and a relatively large (maybe an inch and a half tall) oval-shaped blue gem surrounded by other, smaller gems in a swirling, flower-like pattern, set into a silver plate-thingy (it is flat on the back) sit somewhere around the level of his heart.
Mishiro is brash, impulsive, and firey-tempered; he has none of the cunning or patient wit of his father, or the universal caring of his mother. He seems to love violence, hardly ever shows fear, is stubborn, and always has to have things his way. He doesn't like being a "good guy", preferring to look out for himself, but his conscience always ropes him into it. He doesn't like children, unless they like the same things he likes, and tends to stay away from them. He isn't a romantic at all, those feelings are mostly foreign to him, but feels that people should just say "I like/love you" and get on with their lives. He is also defensive and confrontational; and if he has an opinion on something, especially something he feels strongly about, you are bound to hear it.
Yerp, that's Mishiro. Crazy guy, huh?

Second character -- Freya! =D
Freya: Freya was originally human, but definitely doesn't look it anymore. She's a magical researcher, and all the wild magic she's been around has changed her appearance drastically. The things that have remained are Freya's short (just above shoulder-length) red-brown hair, with bangs that frame her plain, mud-brown eyes, and her average height and weight. Her skin appears to be lightly tanned, but it's her genetics, not exposure to the sun. Even though she's an academic, she's athletic, just so she can survive it doesn't do if you're huffing and puffing within the first three seconds of running from a dragon).
Added to Freya are two mismatched wings -- they're both bat-like in shape, complete with thumb-claws, and stretch all the way down to her ankles. The left (her left, not ours) is white, and the right is light purple. They appear to be scaly draconic wings, but on closer inspection, what seems to be scales is actually tiny discs of ice that do not melt, except under the influnce of magical fire (and even then, they grow back). There are "scales" even on the membranes of the wings, though they are smaller and not as noticable. Also, Freya's right arm has been replaced by a morphable arm; it can take the form of the right arm of any magical creature she encounters, with some changes to fit a human, but cannot return to its original shape. Freya favors a red-scaled draconic arm with flecks of gold, and the arm stretches down to her knees instead of ending at her mid-thigh. She also has a horn on her left temple (the same side as the white wing) that is black, that looks like a cross between a unicorn's horn and a ram's horn. That is, it curls toward the back of her head in a "golden spiral" like a ram's horn, but is made up of two bits of horn that wind tightly around each other and come to a sharp point, like a unicorn's horn. Also, she seems to have dark green "freckles" on her face (cheekbones, forehead, around her eyes and on her nose), the back of her neck and back, her collar-bone and shoulders, and her left arm (the same side as the wing and horn, the one that's kept its original shape), and the back of her left hand.
Since Freya has traveled to many worlds, her style of clothing is eclectic and mis-matched. She may wear a labcoat over a sleeveless turtleneck, or a shawl over a tunic, or any number of things. So you can draw her wearing whatever you want, as long as it doesn't seem too "hip-hop" (you know, showing cleavage/belly-button/lots of hip), though something sleeveless would be visually interesting. whee
Freya is curious about everything, and often pokes her nose into places where it doesn't belong; though she is an observer, not a helper, so can seem cold and unsympathetic at times, even though she silently rejoices with the good things that happen to those she cares about. She tries to not let her emotions get the best of her, though like everyone, sometimes fails. She's an optomist and a romantic when it comes to relationships.
And imagine, she just started out as a girl with a white demonic wing and a black angelic wing.... mad d

Third -- Rayla!
Rayla: Rayla looks like a young human, about 8-10 years old, with some differences. She has black hair to the middle of her back, and usually puts it into braided pig-tails; it shines red, sometimes, in bright light. She is freckly, and usually has a smile on her face. Her eyes are almond-shaped, though with sharp corners, and they glow red, without a recognizable pupil or iris.
Instead of normal human ears, she has dark red doberman (it's a breed of dog) ears rising from her head; her hands, wrists, and forearms are also covered with dark red fur, and her feet and legs, up to the knees, are shaped like dog legs.
She wears things that a girl her age would be expected to wear, though she likes her shirts 3/4 length sleeves or shorter, and always goes barefoot. She always wears a puppy's collar around one of her wrists; it is black, with silver-colored metal spikes. This is a remnant of her past life, and she almost never takes it off.
Rayla is cheerful and observant, often stating the over-looked obvious, and playful. She doesn't remember much of her past, but she doesn't let that bother her. She is obedient to those she recognizes as authority, and prefers to stay low to the ground than sit in a chair. She is brave when it comes to most things; usually because she's too inexperienced to be afraid, or because the reward is so great she shoves it aside.
Other notes: Rayla can breathe fire at will, and has a great, unlogical fear of angels or anything "holy".
