Modred the Mystic
(Profile #1 - 1975-1978)
Marvel Comics' Modred the Mystic, a time-tossed Arthurian magician. This is the first chapter of his profile and covers his early appearances, back when he was meant to be an occult super-hero.
Katana
(Yamashiro Tatsu) (1980s, part #1)
This profile covers the early career of Katana (Tatsu Yamashiro) during the 1980s, with Batman & The Outsiders. It is part of a series that starts with the first Batman & the Outsiders team profile.
Order of the Cross
A Catholic secret organisation with superhuman operatives seen in mid-1990s Wildstorm Comics.
Captain Marvel
(1970s Saturday Morning Show Version)
The live-action 1974-1977 children's TV series version of Captain Marvel (Billy Batson). The series is terribly dated, but that can have charm.
Galen Bradwarden
(Dragonslayer movie)
The protagonist of Dragonslayer, from that early 1980s wave of fantasy movies - low fantasy, in this case.
Rhian of the Sightless Eye
(Diablo)
A possible approach to the rogue character in the 1990s Diablo video game, in a tabletop role-playing game.
Yeah, it's niche I know.
Thermodynamicist Pixxel
Example of an Asura engineer/scientist -- and reluctant adventurer -- in the Guild Wars II fantasy setting.
Very Serious Mom with an afro, flamethrowers and some heavy metal.
Leprechaun
(Terrible horror movies)
A "magical slasher" villain seen in Z-list -- mostly direct-to-video -- horror movies.
Marine Marauder II
(Marlene Simmonds)
Obscure maritime DC Comics villainess. Fought the Outsiders, and the Flash.
Not a headliner, but quite workable for ocean-based stories.
Eliminator
A powerful New Salem enforcer construct who fought the Fantastic Four in '77.
As of May of 2021, redid the peekchurs and added Mutants and Masterminds game stats.
Grandma Pumpkin
The gold medal winner from our 2014 Halloween character creation contest. With an extensive background in witchery and grandmothering.
As of April of 2021, this profile received a few portraits from the cauldron.
Belle Taine
From our Spring of 2015 character creation contest. A young super-heroine with a big heart and wielding magical artefacts from Celtic myth. Extensive, well-written background story.
As of April of 2021, this profile received some portrait art. Because magic.
La Dixieme (“The Tenth”)
An original French super-heroine, whose considerable powers are based on art.
As of April of 2021, added portraits thanks to my own non-existent artistic gifts.
Necroscope
(Harry Keogh) (Early)
A super-medium in a series of horror novels by Brian Lumley.
As of April of 2021, this old old profile has received some illustrations.
Warden Commander Genevieve
Genevieve, Commander of the Grey, is one of the main characters in the Dragon Age prequel novel The Calling, by David Gaider.
Formidable but harrowed fighter with a big-arse sword, nerves of steel and a unhealthy intensity.
As of April of 2021, added photorealistic portraits. Since her team now has those, and I don't know how long the creation tool will...
Nika the Chain
(Sample Diablo II Assassin)
A writeup of the Assassin character class in Diablo II, information about assassins in this game world, and an example of possible background and characterization to flesh out the archetype.
As of April of 2021 I added a photorealistic custom character model because heh, why not.
The Amazing and Stunning Shivangi and her Faithful Companion the Cunning Subarna
A creatively fleshed-out example of a Vanquisher character in the first Torchlight video game.
She's an itinerant carnie and sharpshooter with a pet lynx. Both have magical powers.
As of April of 2021 I've whipped up a photorealistic custom character model for Shivangi. Thus ending years of frustration about never managing to make a good illustration of the character concept.
Rayya Manticora
An example of a fully-fleshed out necromancer in the Guild Wars 2 setting.
If you need an atypical, benign necro who likes rabbits (and magical action princess outfits), well it's just the occasion you've been waiting for.
