My necromancer hound, a species invented *Dante-D:Gavin (changed his name).

He's supposed to be a somewhat older necro critter, though they do not technically age to my understanding. He's at least supposed to have that weathered, elder, 'im very obviously not young but im also not old and crotchety or anything' sort of feel... like someone nearing retirement.

The story I had in mind involved him being the permanent (and unwilling) summon of some crazy witch lady who uses hims like a slave of sorts. However, that story is sort of beginning to fall through as the reason the witch lady got her hands on (and kept her hands on) a powerful Necromancer hound like Gavin was because of his son, who was supposed to be held as a hostage of sorts.

However, Necros don't have offspring, so it's a little open-ended right now.

But, there he is anyway. I colored this while still in Florida so I did not have the rules and species sheet and stuff handy. I could've sworn we were allowed to give our Necros two colors. But I'm not 100% sure so, please, Dante if you see anything you disapprove of, do not hesitate to tell me.

Other than that, the sheet pretty much explains itself. His throat pouch thing was slashed in some sort of confrontation, so his voice is extremely raspy and quiet, but has a deep, powerful, sort of commanding air to it despite that. I sort of think of David Hayter (the voice of Solid Snake from the MGS series), but a little more raspy than that. Oh, and his throat pouch is supposed to be gray-ish colored like his body (I just forgot to turn the layer back on when I saved it).

I'm typing this up really quickly so, forgive me if it seems rushed or haphazardly done... it is. ^^;

Cool. He looks like he's been through some wars with all those scars, and the missing limb.

Gawd, always gotta make your characters so complex and hard to get right when drawing DB
jk, their complexity is interesting and challenging 8D
Very nice work with the design. ^^ The story goes nicely, even though it's only loosely fitted at the moment. perhaps an adopted son ? o3o

When you say they don't age, do you mean negligable seniscence? I love that. So intriguing.

NO.
