Artwork: Wrath (Wizardry)

Mostly honourable, usually reliable, occasionally bloodythirsty. Still basically a hero. The dragon-man samurai Wrath.

The second of my drawings of characters from my old Wizardry game series playthough, following my drawing of the monk Motoko: the Dracon samurai who goes by Wrath (not his real name). Think an overly-serious dragon-man warrior—or dragonborn if you speak Dungeons and Dragons. I alway thought of Wrath as the party straight man: not usually as inclined to silliness as the others, but also not as aloof from it all as Motoko. Even then though, when it came to proving himself in combat or other forms of competition, Wrath could be as crazy as the others.

A drawing of a dragon-man warrior, stepping through the threshold of a stone portal, his cloak billowing out behind him as he holds his sword at the ready. The dragon-man has scaly green skin, yellow eyes, a pair of horns sprouting from his brow, and frills for ears. He has a ragged burgundy cloak and is wearing armour: a breastplate, bracers and greaves, all of which bear scratches from battle. He's wearing baggy striped dark-burgundy trousers under an orange kilt. He's holding a single-handed sword with a blackened blade. The night sky through the portal behind him is dark orange, as if fire burns in the distance.
Wrath, first into the breach as usual.

Two characters down, four to go. Wrath also fulfils the important role of not being an attractive female, thus allowing me with a straight face to claim that I don't only draw demon-women and angels on this blog. That's very important for some reason.
