Description Aah, fantasy. This is about has fantasy as it gets. Quite typical a clichΓ© afternoon in a fantasy world.
Now, everything would be peaceful... ah, except for the fact that Dun (ye capn' of the Sea-spraye (or something... actually, he hasn't got a ship any longer, that's why he's with this crew)) - whom recently has donned a healthy moustach - is getting quite mad at the elven bard.
"Arrr, ye be quite mad'n if yer askin me, boy! I be bettin' me left arse-cheek that thar be a hunren' orcs jist waitin' fer a blastin' dumb landcrab such as yerself t'start a fire big'nuff t'be seen 'cross the whole bloody continent!"
"Nah... I grew up in the woods afore I became the best lute player in the multiverse. Besides, I'm elf!" (insert a succesful Charisma roll, and all who doesn't jolly nod as if he couldn't be more right just shrug their shoulder.)
Unfortunatly for our dear elf, the army of a hundred Orcs didn't laugh (though some did titter!)... instead they waited until he was sound asleep, his feet warmed by the gargantuan fire he had built.

Oh... btw, the elf bard is inspired by Audrey Wildhagen's Jorran. Well actually, it's inspired by something she said about her own carrier in an RPG called Eternal Earth, and Jorran was one of her characters. Put together they gave me inspiration for this one. The male elf that is.

I like and appreciate this piece very much... but... the background is rather dark... hard to see... I mean no offense however... this is a spectacular rendition of a camp in a dangerous locale...
