I'm not dead!

Here's a straightforward DnD character just to shake off some rust.

Dungeons And Dragons character:

Magpie, Halfling warlord/commander/whatever

The woman who would become Magpie served in the border guard of the kingdom, before she got in the way of a corrupt official who wanted to blame a town's orcish resident for the town's troubles. She was deemed a traitor and a thief and was sentenced to hang.

Thankfully, the executioner was unused to hanging tiny halflings, and got the length of the drop wrong. Rather than snapping her neck, she permanently injured her throat and vocal cords, resulting in a nasty cough and a ludicrously raspy voice for someone her size.

Having survived the hanging and played dead, Magpie was saved by her few remaining friends and went to exile under an assumed name.

By adventuring, she hopes to find allies and resources to weed out corruption in the land.

(Yeah, I used the name Magpie for a similar character before. I liked the concept so I played it in a game.)

Much later then planed here it is.
Its all in the hair, only one of them really works.

Love the pose!  Great job.
Cheers!

Alright, NightLighters and Seafarers are done. I'm gonna start uploading villains now, this is where I started improving on my posing.

Wilbert Hiller/Sgt. Hardshell: A former soldier who came home shell-shocked by the things he saw and did overseas. After receiving treatment for his trauma, he settled into a job as a schoolteacher, thinking he had moved on from his experiences... only to accidentally kill one of his students during a PTSD attack. With his marriage dissolved and nothing left, he agreed to become a guinea pig for a mysterious organization's experiments in hopes it would save him financially. The treatment transformed him into a hulking, turtle-like beast, the mutations iron-maidening him within his own body and leaving him slowly going insane from the pain. Driven by hunger and hate and rage against the world, he now wanders the sewers and slums of Midnight City in search of food (mostly people) and leaves bloodshed wherever he goes; the best way to tell when he's nearby is the soft clinking of his chains, and the rambling mutterings of soldier protocol and his dead student's name, repeated over and over again...

Sgt. Hardshell has all the characteristics of the animal he's based on; he can pull his head and limbs into his shell for defense, and the shell itself is virtually impenetrable against firepower from guns, cannons, and turrets alike. He is capable of staying underwater for days at a time and is an incredibly adept swimmer despite his size, and he has enough raw physical strength to lift over 600,000 tons of solid material.
