Before it all though, Zadhura was originally a two person concept. She had a twin sister named Cezhra, and they would often talk in rhyme. They were raised in the wilds by her mother who passed away peacefully in her sleep one fateful day, sparking off the pairs adventuring career. 20171124_045014 by D, on Flickr They travelled in search of curiosity and wonder, discovering instruments and learning how to play them. 20171124_045047 by D, on Flickr Their relationship bordered on incestuous at times, though this was implied and never really clarified. 20171124_044940 by D, on Flickr 20171124_044841 by D, on Flickr Not much more became of this storyline in general, interest was lost, moving onto the current iteration of Zadhura we have today...

How Zadhura sits is often a physical representation of her emotional state. Crossed arms and crossed legs, she has closed herself off to the world. Especially in busy social situations with people she doesn't know or trust.
20171124_044731 by D, on Flickr Periods of self-reflection and improvement are fleeting; Who the hell wants to look at their own flaws with a magnifying glass and identify ones own shortcomings anyway. That sounds bleak. 20171124_044812 by D, on Flickr But if she's honest with herself, at least every once in awhile. She knows she hates being alone. She knows she's envious of others. It all comes so easy to them. 20171124_044653 by D, on Flickr She knows she's pretty prickly... but she can't bring herself to stop.

Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me, is the old adage. But we all know words hurt. In fact, they hurt like hell. 20171128_054944 by D, on Flickr When sixteen years of emotional repression came tearing through Zadhura's surface it hurt like hell for her too. Feelings she had denied for so long simply refused to be denied for any longer and demanded to be felt. All that hurt, all the anguish, like nothing she had ever known... 20171128_055013 by D, on Flickr She was later given things she didn't know she needed; Good company Good food Good times

Brick by brick, Zadhura's world is being smashed down to reveal she exists in a world far larger than she could've imagined. With all manner of delights and temptations she never knew she wanted. 20171130_045456 by D, on Flickr ...And on a less raunchy note, she's discovered a kind of peace she never knew existed, and with it, a new power to face the world with. 20171130_045522 by D, on Flickr "Words are pain, deliver them well."

Smiles are rare, but they are welcome... if a little... tusky. 20171203_234914 by D, on Flickr "How the hell-... Can I just-... Rrrgh... this is dumb!" 20171203_235203 by D, on Flickr "... and that's a twisted ankle." A rather masculine fighting pose, pretty standard for Zadhura. 20171203_234936 by D, on Flickr She wishes she was a bit more feminine though. 20171203_235107 by D, on Flickr

Influences, in no particular order; 20171211_060228 by D, on Flickr "Dunno how Arvey maintains such a sunny disposition. I -really- don't.

Tenna's a real sunflower though. She's -my- chubby cherub." 20171211_060127 by D, on Flickr "I've yet t'encounter a woman of such professional operational standards as Yashiera. Deadly from afar and up close. I ain't so sure I wanna get much closer than what we are, she's way more dangerous than she let's on. She's known a path of many thorn, ng."

Just putting these here for posterity Creation starts with an idea and an outline Then you clean it up. All in all this can take an hour or less. This bit though. This takes ages. I hate this bit. It's like... six hours.

Dazza, when you do your clean-up process are you erasing lines or working with layers?

How I woudl be able to pay for it IC ? Quick little DM note, not that I think this was implied, but I'm going to answer this real quick, because it doesn't come up often. There is no bartering system for in-game gold for out of game goods. Like art.
