Define your race, Everyone has one race they adore Options

[Pandra]

So Josh and other's are poking me to do more art, and I'm working on stuff. I don't however want to be "that girl that draws pixies all the time." So I figured I'd get people to tell me what their favorite race(s) are and give me their point of view on them, and then see if I can't draw something that will match your description.

Example, Jaramar I'm sure will say Gnomes, I rather adore gnomes myself. I'd want his idea on what they should look like physcially. Links to other people's art work are acceptable. His views on their society, culture, inventions... but I don't really have to ask him for that since he's got a thread for gnomes already <3... well maybe get him to define the physcial descriptors alittle more. And if there's something you're strongly aginst your race having, like peircings or tatoo's tell me why.

Physical discriptions should include not just height, hair colors, eye colors, skin colors, ect. But traditional clothing styles and hair styles, accessories like pouches, books, quills, tools, ect. Weapons and armor are acceptable only if you have a good reason for why your race would always and forever be wearing armor and toteing a weapon around. Most people, even in the good eld days gone yore didn't walk around in armor all the time. It's hot and heavy and frequently itchy.

I promise you won't poor me. Just try to use good sentence and paragraph spacing. Big blocks of text, while irritating for other people are acctually very difficult for me to read. I am dyslexic and after a certain point everything kinda goes wonky. Spaceing helps keep everything deciphrable. Ok, now wow me <3

Thank you, I'm rather unfond of rabbitish floppy, or semi erect ears that manage to convey a weird sense of phallic compensation in the designers.

Was that a hidden WoW designers insult?

I wouldn't mind seeing some pretty far out monsters or races. Even Earth has creatures that have people scratch there heads.

I'm still gunning for an undead type playable race (spirits) but will settle for a seemingly zombie like race. (The butler in Horror movies style not a dark elf!)

MMkay, leme get in on this action.

Whenever I play Ultima Online, I have my regular dwarf, and his name is Dokyooda Who.

Dokyodoa is my Master Craftmen reguarly , ( though he has been known to pick up an axe and fight when it is needed)rather than a fighting dwarf. Usualy Dok ( As some who cannot seem to pronounce Dokyooda call im ) will wear a studed, scorched leather armor ( which is nothing more than smoking/buring the hide after it is tanned and swen together ). In the middle of the leather armor is his family seal, which is a simple, and crude, design of a green shield, with a yellow stripe running from the left corner, to the bottem right side.

He normaly wears field green shirt and pants which seem to always have suit and dirt on it from the forge or fields where he gathers and works his crafts.
Traditionaly, Dok is a hairless dwarf except for maybe the eye brows which are a light brown color with some sun-streak highlights.

He normaly stands under 4'5", seems to have a slight beer gut, but still manages to keep his arms n legs fairly sculpted. His skin is sun-kissed an fair, tho his work keeps him in a regular farmers tan.

Whenever Dok is needed for fighting, he had a large silvered great axe that resignates with the feint glow is his fallen enemies. His armor is plate and made of a hardened iron, on the plate is a blackened and soddered metal outline of a black dragon.

This symbol represents his status umong the dragons. "Dokyooda Who, Blight of Fredrigore "

Dokyooda is a skilled smith, carpenter, alchemist, scribe, cartographer, tinker-er and chef.

Helf hears long short or whatever are good if the graphical idea is the same for all players and mobs in a virtual world.
So I don't care to see ears as I want due we suppose to play in a brand new world with different rules than other then all is acceptable 20 feet ears or no ears at all.
