I felt the urge to paint something in a medieval style and chose to depict one of my DnD characters snuggling with her future husband.
I used a pose reference from the Codex Manesse because I thought it was so cute. It's painted with Photoshop.
Neidhart is my character for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay.
I like drawing outfits for her as you can see. These are all things that she has been wearing in game. I thought that a slideshow would be a fun way to show them off.
Neidhart is a young noblewoman, she left her home after a dispute with her father over her bad attitude and a broken of engagement.
She uses her considerable skills as a swordsman to make ends meet as a professional duellist.
Then she got tangled up in adventure and while travelling the Reikland encountered so much of the horrible results of the the Ruinous Powers that she decided to take on the mantle of a With Hunter. Only to find herself being used a a political tool by the Cult of Sigmar.
I don't know how you feel about reels here on Reddit but I just made it and I thought a few of you might enjoy it.
What you are looking at here represents 16 years worths of my DnD characters.
I could go back further but I don't remember half of my shitty characters from way back.
Our group started playing DnD when the third edition was released. After many years we were ready for a change, so when fourth edition came out in 2008 we were done with The Forgotten Realms and started playing in our own homebrew setting. All the characters portrayed here are characters that I have played in our homebrewed world.
It all began with Virelai. I made an eladrin because that was fresh and new. We did the starting adventure "Kobold Hall" to try out the system. It ended with a TPK in the Dragon fight, but I brought her back later (with a scar and a newfangled tragic backstory. Also a hatred for dragons.)
The first character created specifically for the setting was my paladin Liv. We started out in the northern part of the world and our game master was inspired by the going ons in 12th Century in the Nordic countries.
Also with some demons and other things…
Every new campaign since then, the world has evolved and expanded.
Arild (bard) was the first character that I played on virtual table top. We have been playing on VTT since then.
Marja (druid) is my first character for fifth edition. I though I would make it easy for myself with a mechanically simple character like a druid to learn the system. That first adventure also ended with a TPK. We pretended it never happened. There were a lot of rats...to many rats.
Turid (paladin) is the first character that I drew in this style and I started putting in some effort in to learning how to draw proper looking armour.
Honoré (paladin) is the last of the characters from the last of our campaigns that ended 2years ago.
Since then we have moved on to greener pastures and are taking an indefinite break from DnD.
So that makes it even more special to have done this project to remember all the good times we have had.
I don't know if anyone will read all of this, you can just look at the picture if you like.
We have gotten through Power beind the Throne and will be starting on The Horned Rat this Weekend.
I don't want to write any spoilers but it all went fairly well and the dastardly plot was averted.
The characters have proven to be useful and are enjoying new prestigious positions because of it.
Neidhart has been properly iniated as a Templar Witch Hunter and has been given the rights to act as prosecutor, jury, judge, and executioner by the High Capitular of Nordland and the Order of the Brothers of the Book.
Axel has accepted the mantle of Graf's Champion after Dieter.
Heilwig has become an agent of Graukappen. An elite, secretive subdivision of the Imperial Black Chamber.
Barnabas has founded a Temple of Rhya within the bounds of the city.
Here are some pictures that I painted of my Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay character Neidhart.
She is the only daughter of a disgraced and impoverished noble family.
She uses her excellent fencing abilities and experience as a professional duelist to combat the corruption of chaos as a witchunter.
Her real name is Leonetta but very few people are allowed to call her that.
