Dark Wizard 2

Here is a much more recent sketch of that dark wizard from my Zheph Skyre series I had mentioned in an earlier post.

You can notice some significant changes to his helm, shoulder pads, and staff. I decided to give those parts of his costume straighter edges. It looks better to me.

I also decided to include a sketch of the character underneath the helm and cape. I wanted him to appear young, except with some gray patches in certain areas. There is a reason why there is a sketch of him as a much older man, but that's to discover in the story.

I was thinking of calling this character Imagian. I believe I got the name from the Latin word for "Image" since projecting images into others minds is a well ability of his, but I am still debating on certain names.

Today I will be going to First Friday in Boston again. I will try to get pictures for Monday.

Dark Wizard

Here's another sketch from my Zheph Skyre series, and this time it is human! Sure he is wearing a helm that covers his entire face, but it is important for him to hide his identity. He is one of the main antagonists from my story, and he is a powerful wizard. I was thinking of portraying his mask with a single eye to represent an eye that sees all. The smile was just something I thought that would make him seem interesting as well as mysterious. I had help with the feet, but everything else was done entirely by me.

In the world of Terra Geaya, the world of which my story takes place, humans can use magic. Each person has their own magical element out of the ten that they were born with and can use at ease. With that specific element, that person could master very powerful spells of that specific element. In order to use other elements, people have to use special stones, written scrolls, or weapons that can transform their magic into other elements. Supposedly, no one can master the other elements of magic other than their own.

This wizard has somehow mastered powerful spells of all of the elements. That is revealed in the story when he first makes his appearance, but what isn't revealed is his true element. Based on these facts, everyone can only assume the spells he can cast by his own element are on a level beyond anyone's comprehension.
