Prince of Fear. Son of Lloth. Very Scary Guy. I wouldn't recommned getting on his bad side.... son of Lloth and an undisclosed demon. He's a fearsmith, able to create a killing weapon based off of your worst fears. But that's OOC information. The only one of his siblings who really gets along with him is Sabrae.

Another of the Children of Lloth from the drow plot I'm running.

Really good use of color and shading, his eyes seem to stare at you, trying to find your worse fear. I love this peice, it is one of my favorites. Heh, cant wait to meet him in the woods....^_-

Its not bad, i like the color choices and all that good stuff, were did he get that necklace? I want one

:-) Maryanne 'Mab' English-Betie replies: "The necklace is a simple canine choke chain, available at Petco's or PetSmart or any other pet store."

*ahem* BASTARD!

Now that that's out of the way, nice choice of colors. I'm curious, is this painted then markered? I noticed something akin to creases or wrinkles in the scan, so.

I wonder, how many children are there? *wink wink*

:-) Maryanne 'Mab' English-Betie replies: "Hehe, Zurak's not that bad when he's not in the mood to experiment...Actually, I did paint part of it. The black background was applied through acrylic paint, rather than kill my black marker filling it in. You get a much more even tone with the paint than with the marker anyways."

All i have to say is wow! And im not just complimenting you on this pic but all the rest of your pictures. I looked through all of them , and, i loved every single one of them. You should be proud of yourself and your accomplishments... Great work Oh and another thing i dig Zuraks eyes. They are so deep its like a black hole. It seems that he is looking into your very soul. Hey he probably is. Once again congrats on all your work!!!!!

:-) Maryanne 'Mab' English-Betie replies: "Thanks! 2 Hrm, Zurak looking into your soul... Yup, that about sums it up. That would be something he'd do. "

I just hope I don't get on his bad side, by the way great pic I like the hair and the nose ring gives the pic a finishing touch!

I like this. I'm guessing he doesn't get along with Selvetarm, Elistraee, Vraehuan, etc..... (They are also Lolth's kids... He's got a unique expression I've only seen once. *grins and laughs looking at large pile of drawings*

:-) Maryanne 'Mab' English-Betie replies: "No, there's only one he gets along with...her name is Sabrae, and she'll be making an appearance soon enough here. This is from our LARP, so we added a few extra children for Lloth... Zurak here is a demi-god of fear. Sabrae, who is currently a lunatic, is demi-god of pain. Naturally, the two get along fabulously. 12"

Get a life. He is'nt real, and he does'nt scare me.

:-) Maryanne 'Mab' English-Betie replies: "Actually, in a sense, he is real. He's an NPC for a plot in a LARP I'm in...so he does indeed have a physical body so to speak."

And yet I'm still not scared. Good design though.

:-) Maryanne 'Mab' English-Betie replies: "....alrighty then. Actually, I'd have rather have this particular NPC be imposing at first sight."
