Description The villain of The Ornitar of Arkenon. Unlike the cold and calculating villain, he acts with passion and out of desire. He is ruthless in the fact that he will kill any and all who oppose him and stand in his way, but he will not and does not kill for pleasure.

His mother died when he was very young. He was taken care of and raised by his aunt Jilvar while his father, Borazar ignored him and focused his attention on Watching the Ornitar. Unlike his ancestors, he was not given the opportunity to adjust to the powers that the Ornitar would grant him and so, when it came to his turn to Watch the Ornitar, the power corrupted him and let darkness into his heart. With the visionary powers of the Ornitar at his disposal, he realised that he could conquer the whole of Arkenon and no-one would be able to stop him. The darkness ate away at his heart and soon he wanted nothing more than to accomplish his dream, to the point where he would let nothing stand in his way. He began to push the powers of the Ornitar, to try to get it to see into the future. Realising that itself and the whole of Arkenon was in danger, the Ornitar called Mercuryar, Telensar's mate and she came to reason with him. At first he offered her a place at his side but when she continually refused and called him a heartless tyrant, he accused her of betrayl then killed her. And using the Ornitar to gather an army that would be loyal to him, he became Overlord of East Arkenon.

His child by Mercuryar, does not in fact die, although, out of a desire to protect her from Telensar, Mercuryar tells him the child died before reaching the age of 2 (she is 4 when her parents confront each other). She is to later end up in his employ, but niether know their of true relationship until the events of OoA.
He also had a hybrid son, Tekanar Miscanor; his mother being Jikanel Miscanor, Keeper of the Mirror of Arkenon. He is 6 during the events of OoA.

To be an Arkenonian Dragon, the MUST have three spikes where the head joins the neck and where the tail meets the body and the four spikes on the tail and ears. The double head crest is not common of all Arkenonian Dragons, but it is seen as a trait in some family lines. They can be any shape and any direction. They can breath fire, but use it really conservatively. Constant firebreathing = not so good for the throat. Arkenonian Dragons prefer to use their teeth, claws tailspikes and magic powers for fighting. Telensar is a master of Mesmery and Illusion magic.

Arkenon and all characters mentioned are (c) me.

Woah, shading of perfectioness!!! I always find it's the little things that make or break a picture - in this case, the highlighting of the snout, which TTE pointed out, along with other areas of highlight and shadow really MAKE this pic.

Nice job, Mae! (Can I call you Mae?)


P.S. I like your choice of background colour. XD

And the shading of perfection is sneakily due to the gradient fill, but hey, if it it's there to be used, why shouldn't I use it.
I pride myself on my highlighting abilities so it's really good to hear it praised. ^^
Eh. . . let's go with Power for now, then we can ease onto the Maeve, then the Mae.

No wonder he has no pants, he can't keep 'em on!


...*cough* ANYWAY! Man. This guy's seeming like he'll turn out to be an even worse villain to face than one who's pure evil and kills for fun... I mean, if he kills only when he needs to, who knows what he'll do to those who oppose him but he doesn't need to kill?!

...man, that's good shading, he's got a shine on his nose... thing in the perfect place.

Can't keep them on? Come on. He's no Red the Dragon. . . yet ;_; . . .
Nose thing = snout.
Yup, that's my fill gradient abuse right there. So should I use it more often, or shade the 'old' way?

Ah, I'm just kidding.

SNOUTY!

I dunno. Depends on if you wanna make things shiny or not... like, fur... fur's not overtly shiny, unlike scales...

The highlighting isn't part of the gradient fill, I did that myself. But you're right, fur generally isn't shiny, which is why there are no shines on Red. ^^
And using the gradient fill, generally saves on colouring and shading it myself. XD, but at the same time it does leave a lot of spots. Which is REALLY annoying.
I think maybe I'll use it when I feel like and otherwise colour normally.

Yeah.

Gradient fill: for lazy people. I never used it when I was still cheating Macromedia out of the Flash trial...
