A blast from the past

Oh wow, it does feel like 2000 all over again. Or at least from the perspective of said art. The goal was to come up with a quick concept, for the Necromancer, turn it into reality, whilst trying out some different styles. Wanted to stray off from the traditional path a little bit. Wanted something lite, but still impressive, as they can barely stand on their own (#magic).

About their appearance

Taking the path of a Necromancer's means that a deal has to be struck with the devil. You've to give up most of your earthly life, and transcend into a being that lingers between the living and the dead. The change morphs your body into a shell of its former glory, and drives your mind into madness . . . But it doesn't end here: You've to give up something that is most precious to you. In this case, they gave up their sight (hence they've no real eyes), for their endless quest for glory.

And now let's see what they are wearing:

  • Their body is painted, to resemble a skeleton
  • They wear the mask of their demon, the one that they had to fight against
  • Chain shoulder pads, to remind everyone that they carry the sins of the World on their shoulders
  • Bone armor, from the fragments of their enemies
  • Arm bandages, to protect their thin and fragile skin
  • A pouch, next to the heads of their warriors spirit (which they can call out at any time)
  • And trousers and boots, that they stole from a farmer, some time ago.

Think that's it for now. This was a fun speed-run, that's for sure! :)

PS.: Let me know what you think!
