Random Art

[Randomlogic]

Well, I joined quite a while ago, but wound up not being able to post...well, anything. I picked up a second job and school started kicking my shit in, but things are about normal again. I'd like to get active again, and I'll start by doing this.

All of these were drawn in pencil first and then inked later with whatever pen I managed to find. I generally don't buy art supplies or take classes out of sheer laziness, but I do enjoy drawing as a hobby! Some of these are very old, and you'll be able to tell from how shitty the paper looks, for which, I am sorry in advance :P.

This was a race I created for an RP a while back, though it never got made. They're called Carrion Lords, based off of Swain's Raven form from League of Legends, for those of you who know what that is.

I haven't played the game in quite a few months, but I used to play World of Warcraft, an Undead Mage to be exact. He was the first character I really began to RP with and use him still today, just in other settings/universes, his story is pretty flexible. Still, this is a slightly older drawing of him. His name is Venser.

And again, without the bandages, after tearing them - along with some skin - off of his face.

A gift for an Ex, named Theodore. Teddy is part of a parasitic race that feeds on the fear of other creatures in order to survive, Humans being the easiest target. His origins are more or less unknown, but what is known is that they tend to latch onto children as a source of food - basically, his species is the cause of the Bogeyman stories. They can only be seen by those they wish to be seen by, and can alter their form in a biological sense (splitting limbs, popping bones, etc.)

Teddy is an outcast of his race, specifically because for a time he was starving and began feeding on his own kind. After a while, he found himself wandering and on a typical hunt discovered Alex - a young girl he intended to feed on, however, ran into a small problem. Alex was born with the inability to feel fear. Long story short, he was enchanted by the young girl's admiration at his ability to tear his body apart, and has since attached himself to her as a companion.

She gave him a name and basically treats him as her imaginary friend.

Colossus-like monster based off of SotC.

Mr. Tibbers - name credit to LoL - Venser's pet Abomination. Ain't he cute?

Sova, a blind paladin. I don't often draw people because I simply don't think I do it as well as monsters and what not, but he's another character I use. It's still a WIP that I haven't finished out of a combination of frustration and laziness.

That's all I have for now. Sorry for the shoddy upload quality, and thanks for for any feedback, critiques, ideas, or requests!

Incredible work Random! Teddy & Mr Tibbers - downright awesome!

Please, post more! As someone that can't make legible stick figures, I love to see when people can actually make sketches that are so cool!

Thanks for sharing with us :)

Amazing work, Random. I could definately see those characters on a anime show kicking good guy butt. Again amazin work.

Merry, we still love you little crooked stick figures.

Random, your paltry PM box limit is full, so here is the answer to your PM'ed question to me:


Hey :D. I was just browsing the forums, and I wanted to get involved in the RP you'd made, as it seems very interesting. I know I haven't made a post here yet, and you asked for competent role players, so if need be, I'd be happy to give a sample of my writing first. I did have a question though, if that's alright.

What I was wondering was if specific Angels/Demons etc, were usable for possession from various religious lore and what not. For instance, Abaddon, Baal, etc, or if they should simply be nondescript.

Thanks in advance!

You seem like a fellow who can put a few sentences together well enough, so no writing sample is necessary; just some creativity and imagination. Draw up a character sheet and post it, and see if you can clear enough space to pm me what your unseen half is in private.

Regarding possession, your question inspired me to lengthen my "Unofficial FAQ (http://role-player.net/forum/showpost.php?p=587711&postcount=1)", and I think you'll find point 8 of particular interest to you:

8) What about possession and morality with the demons and angels?

First, remember that you are only HALF angel/demon--from that, everything else I'm going to say follows. Regarding the obligation to be "good" (for angels) or "bad" (for demons)--there is no obligation. Why? Because even if you cannot believe angels are "bad" or demons are "good", your human half can easily be the opposite and override your angelic/demon half. Be as bad or as good as you want to be, regardless of what your other half is. You have my endorsement and permission to do that.

Regarding possession--you may get some of your demonic/angelic influence from another entity, a union of your parents, or just some kind of freak occurrence. There is no obligation to ascribe it to a "consciousness" inside your character; technically, you are not possessed--you just possess some demonic/angelic powers and/or characteristics. This goes the same way for vampires--obviously you're not some Sire's child. You were not embraced; there are no 400 year-old pure, full-blood vampire elders in this world. So treat your demonic/vampiric/lycanthropic/angelic/cybernetic powers as just that--gifted powers you were given or bestowed, but not a mandated foreign consciousness that is trying to take over your body. Now, if you want to play a character with multiple personalities, by all means, go right ahead, but there is no obligation to do so.

I hope that answers your good question!

Thanks for the comments, I'm glad you like what I've made ^-^. I've drawn a few more things and I'll put them up when I get the chance - a lot of these were posted using my phone, so I'd rather wait until I get the scanner back from one of my roommates. The quality kind of bothers me.

And thanks for the answer, ~N~ :D. I'm working on my character sheet now and I'll have it to you soon enough, I've also emptied out my folder so that way I can send you the other bit. The two limit is somewhat of an inconvenience, but I'll make it work, heh.
