Description Therin: "She put me in a #%$@ing robe...again."

Daeghan: "It's 'cause it makes you look so damn pretty. And easier for Rahm to tear off."

Therin: "&*^$ you. And you even MENTION this to her, I will kill you."

Daeghan: "Come on, you're just pissed 'cause you didn't think of it first."

Done as a quick present for , here are my two babies, Therin and Daeghan. These little puddins are part of a story being developed, called "Child's Prayer." Many of you probably are already familiar with these two, so I won't babble too much about them. ^^

Therin (pissy elf on the left), is a ranger, and a bit of an arrogant (though overall good-hearted) bastard, and Daeghan (grinning, provoking little git) is on the right, commenting on my choice of clothing for his brother. Oh and for the record, Rahm is a hilarious, kickass character in the story, with her sights set on our pissy widdle elf boy. Oh the teasing... *cackle*

Therin and Daeghan have had an interesting childhood...on the whole very loving and nurturing, but life does tend to throw them curveballs from time to time. ^_~ Therin is an albino, and has a very hard time with bright sunlight, which makes being a ranger quite a challenge. Daeghan is a healer/diplomat, and was born blind, though circumstances have made it possible for him to function mostly normally. By that I mean as far as being able to get around by himself, and being able to defend himself, etc...though not without some consequences of the physical and mental kind.

As you can see...Therin and Daeghan have that wonderful sibling dynamic, so many of us are blessed with in our own families. *cackle*

Ha! I found not only plot and character stuff but talking! Heehehehe. They're funny. Is it you who put him in the robe I take it? Hee. I'm a sucker for fourth-wall humor.

*cackle* Oh yes, I most certainly am the guilty one. ^_~ Therin HATES it when I do that. XD

Daeghan is just happy that I didn't try and do anything evil to him....yet. *snicker*

He hates wearing them, because he used to have to wear them a lot when he was younger, and not only do they tend to get in the way when he's trying to hunt (getting your hem caught in a blackberry bush while you're trying to chase down a rarbok is embarrassing and painful XD) plus his twin, Daeghan, (who incedentally wears them a lot, in some ensemble or another) likes to poke fun at how pretty they make Therin look. XD Because he's a supportive brother that way. *cackle*

Oh yes, gotta love the sibling dynamic. XD

Heh, interesting question. ^_^ The gem in his head is actually a protuberance of organic matter, crystalized when he was young. It was his body's way of fighting off the debilitating headaches he would get from backwashes of power when he tried to first use magic to "see." What that "gem" actually does, is create a sort of conduit for his mental energy to channel Astral energy...sort of a magic "peephole" if you will. It allows Daeghan to see objects and actually have a sense of depth perception to his surroundings. However, since he's really viewing his world through a magical conduit, he does not see things the same way normal eyes would. His colors are all blended together in a continuous vibrating pulse, and he can sense energies all around him. The stronger the energy, the more intense the pulse. He can discern different objects, and can identify different people, via energies, and the magic interpretation of shadow and light on objects. He knows what Therin looks like in a robe, much more than he knows what he himself looks like, due to the fact that reflections, such as those found in mirrors, are very rarely translated through his conduit. Daeghan is a "pretty and doesn't have a clue that he is" sort of guy. XD Which makes him all the more endearing to me.

Despite his ability to "see," he can't use it for prolonged periods of time, because though the magic "backwashes" are more controlled, they still come, and it's more than his brain can handle. So he does it sparingly, and uses the more pragmatic senses, like touch, smell, sound, etc. He's very efficient in getting around, and is a superb fighter when he's forced to be. Woe to the person who pushes his gentle soul that far.

Hopefully I sort of made sense there. XD

*dies laughing* Now that is a funny situation. Since one is an albino it would be interesting to see this in color but it is also good without.

Heehee...that is basically them in a nutshell. ^_~ I do have colored versions of them in my gallery, so they'd probably look something like those...*ponders* Heh, but I don't think I'm going to bother giving this one color, as it was supposed to be a quick sketchie. ^_~ I thank you for your comment, I'm glad you like!
