Description
Notsun I know its two days early but like Mikaces I can't wait!For the longest time I couldn't decide what to do for you! I have some great ideas but I need a bit more free time! So one day I will have a great colored picture for you too!
Then I remembered this picture you drew of Tolk and how you invited others to draw the other side! I said I would and I thought why not now!
COLLAB!!!!!
So for your birthday Justin and Agar freed Tolk from his prison!
I hope your birthday is a great day!!!!

Got to figure out how to Ornitholestesize Nessrean... actually now I am not so sure, Ornitholestes was more of a small, agility sort of Dinosaur and that does not represent Nessrean real well, bodyguard sort of character/dino.
True but... I'll think about it using a Raptor.
Agreed, Nessrean would have a better model figure among Severos than Dilos.
You said his father relied more on the council compared to Justin? What does Justin plan to do that is so different?
Yeah, good makeup for it though.
Lucky, you tank and I deal damage so together we don't lose much health ever, Sheogorath was the only fight "we" had!

Forget size! Velociraptors were small! Size is nothing in my world! Arisdalians are typically no shorter than 5.5
Also keep in mind cross breeds. If you want to take a raptor and give him horns for example that can happen! XD
Yes do as you wish!
I have to tell you that "Nessrean" is finding a few ways to stand out in book one. I may rewrite a few parts because now that I think about it, a few things happen that would never happen with diligent guards about!
This is what I love about writing and Justin told me several time that until I let something into the world it's not there. Soon as I said ok Nessrean have at it, Im finding loop holes! This is great though because the story will have more weight then.
Yes Severos!
MM hmm his father was old fashion in thinking as well.
WELL....you have to read the book!
Yes! We need a real fight! That undaunted quest we have is a group dungeon so we will have a chance at it, we need a fourth though, dps, or pure heal. Tank is challenging, group members need to pay attention and not steal from the tank. Can only taunt one thing at a time. So if the tank does his job with facing mods and CC and people pay attention things will go well.

I did forget size. 
But you make a good point. I think Nessrean will keep the top hons and not have a crown like Justin of course but I am unsure of his model.. I drew a sketch page I forgot to scan for you to peek at. It might help in choosing his head shape and features.. maybe.
As early as book one really? I am glad to have helped! And I am completely in awe that I have done something to better a potentially popular book series! Thank you so much for letting me do that!
I will! No spoilers! I will see the story soon enough.
Ahh, I will try to play a more specific role when the tough parts come along don't worry. Never had such a strong healer though.

Look at Talos also he has head spikes, anything goes! XD
I laugh when someone says that doesn't look accurate...well its not supposed to be! There was cross breeding and...its a fantasy world not real life!
Silly people!
Oh yes I will peak when you get a chance! Ill look at some raptor heads. They all have unique skulls. Justin is closer to a velociraptor shape, deinonychus has a more rounded upward snout like the Jurassic park raptor. The JP raptors skulls look nothing like veloicraptor!
This is so cool! XD
Troodon had bigger forward facing eyes and a narrow pointy snout.
(utahraptor's snout looks closer to justin's lol!)
Yes you have done a lot to change it! You and OtakuPenguin, he influenced a big part! Glad too!
Your welcome! Honestly I have been shooing people away from adding influence(people want their created characters in the book XD), because of copyrights and artistic licencing nightmares I said no, oh the legal hoohaal! The books is already split three ways in sales ill be lucky to get a dollar per sale! Editors are thousands of dollars lol!
Id be lying if I didn't say this solider doesn't mimic nessrean so much before hand, that you would think, gosh this guy is like nessrean when you read it, so I might as well include you as a consultant and influence for his character!
YES! I think after these few touch ups ill be good! I have a new editor and she edits fantasy and has a publishing company so this is perfect!!!
I know you will!!
Your choice, if you wish to dps, of course at 15 you get weapon swap so you can have a dps and healing swpa out, but again no pressure to be the healer!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That is true, and he has wings as well! Don't see that on your average raptor!!
I guess with breeding and all the changes Dinosaurs go thorough PLUS its a fantasy universe that means you get freedom.
Dinos are not the only anthros either as I know you know! But thanks for the pictures! I liked the Utahraptor as well...
I am extremely glad that I could have helped you but I hope that Nessrean really doesn't feel like my attempt to slide into your story.
Hmm, it seems like most jobs in the media involve a lot of hassle and a lot of money, I REALLY hope you do well!!
Soon the book will be all mine.... to read of course!
I will do whatever but I also wanted to try a healer so perhaps at 15 I can switch and try a healing staff. I will still get the spear with it.
But yes, Justin does what he wants an Nessrean will help the best he can!!
Speaking of Nessrean, I have the sketches here of his a'head, take a look if you like.

I think the two in the middle top are my favorites but you say what you need to say!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes!
FREEDOM TO CREATE!
OH yes you can even give him wolf or any other animal you can think of because sds has them all!
Arisdalains tended to stick with other Arisdalains. They are the more snobbish of the kingdoms, but that is because they have always been the most dominate and largest kingdom. Also the live for about 200 years
Oh no! I asked you first after all! XD It is shaky ground though, but that character just feels right.
I had a certain someone try to add his OC into the story and I said I can't for legal reasons. The problem I would run into is any help I have in creating this world gives the person helping all rights to my book even if they only added one little thing. OH it so stupid and complicated! There was a book author and he needed an artist to paint landscapes for his world so he could use them in descriptions. When it came to copyright and publish the artist sued the author for not including him in the half the rights on the book and sales. The author got pissed and said the story is mine. The judge said well he created elements of the world that you used so he also wrote your book so to speak.
Yea legal stuff is stupid lol! Like I said though I trust you and would do my best to compensate you for your aid if that is enough. Send you a free signed copy, free music cd, a sculpture of Justin and Nessrean, that I can do!
If it ever gets bigger, like an anime, game, or movie, then we will talk more. I guess I need confirmation in writing that your good with the arrangement before I press on! I dont have a lawyer but I bet they would be screaming at me haha. Of course if it's too uncomfortable I can do mini stories with nessrean that can just be free fun.
Things like this make me question adoptables on DA. SO many cool creatures being created and sold. These artists really don't know what they are doing, all that awesome originality! I suppose all rights are transferred like when you buy a software like photoshop. So then they can take that character you made and do what they want with it! You sold it! Seems stupid to me, esp if you only get a dollar for it!!!
WOW sry for all that text! (In case your not yet aware I tend to obsessively worry...always have! -_-)
Ok that sounds great! Feel free to level one when you can. Justin is a bit ahead of you in experience! Ive been making a daily habit of reading every book in town and looting drawers and trunks for blues, grab my hirelings things then log off!
OOOO I love those sketches, especially the one in the middle LOL! I suppose he is celebrating his promotion! Nessrean looks great in his armor!
I like the two top middle as well!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I promise I will not sue you for anything!! Nothing, NOPE! I hope Notsun stays a good little fan for you.
WHY should you compensate me at all?!?! I just created a character to play online with you!! A signed book, Music CD, SCULPTURE of Justin AND Nessrean?!?!?! Come on I don't deserve that! I would even buy a copy of the book from you! Got a lot of birthday money.
And of course, if it ever comes down to it I would be willing to prove my permission.
Mini-Stores now? You do absolutely anything you want Gneiss!
I do see so many adoptables, I don't think I could part with something I put so much energy into. Except Nessrean with you but I still can draw him and stuff right?
NOPE! Reading fun and I don't mind!!
I am a tad behind aren't I? I think next chance I get I will run to that underground crafting center where I can research some stuff in the bank.
And I do that a bit too! I am still a little unsure who to give the books too but I think my guy who made your High-elven armor will be the guy. Can be my solo, Shadowfen resident, crafting guy for everyone.
I added a cape but I don't think Nessrean would really have one. Although I do really like the armor, you designed it well.
I think I will work off of the top two then, a sort of small Justin eyebrow but different eyes and no crown. Work on the tail a bit as well....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I know you wouldn't!
Well for if I use Nessrean in the book! At first he was a character created to play with me, now he may be entering into a novel! I would want to give you something for your help! The sculpture would be fun!
OH yes of course you can! He is yours so you can do what you wish with him!!
=3 I had over killed things in the tutorial part! XD
I did start the researching you can see what the stats are if you uncheck the boxes at the top. Looks like you only need to unlock one of each weapon type to get the stat.
Yes that is probably a good idea! Ill have Justin do everything as well at some point. Start with black smith and woodworking =3
He would if he's a royal guard, unless he really dislikes them than he doesn't have to wear one!
Aww thanks! I suppose I need to give them leg and arm armor for battles.
That sounds good! Ah yes his tail!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
If you are really sure, that would be dramatically generous of you.
For the special crafting zones? I thought so, I have come across it once or twice. Right now I am just doing every craft, skill points can come in later!!
Oh, Nessrean can have a cape then! I thought it was just Justin. 
And yeah, a unique tail... perhaps he can have some sort of.... decoration at the end similar but NOT Justin's.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes I think so!
Yea I can see that. I did go down to the hirelings to get legendary crafting materials, and the extract more materials. The best way to get higher quality armor making materials besides deconstruction. But it does take away from passives and things!
Yes he can have a cape!
Dilos has a cape so does Severos. Agar wont wear one, he says it gets in the way of his stealth.
OO Thanks!!! Yes that is Justin's special armor (you will learn about that in the book) Im glad it is so liked! I will have to do a nice colored copy!
Yes what ever you like! Galena's and his mother had a different arrangement of feathers on their tails.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I was unsure of the hirelings.. normally I would go CRAZY over them! But, it is a skill point as you said.
Okay! Just saw Dilos does have a cape, thought he didn't for a moment. But yes, Nessrean shall be caped!
The crest and helmet armor looks fantastic. I love seeing tail armor too! I am always curious to why the tail can't get it's own equiptment.. "If your arm or leg gets it, your tail gets it!!"
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yea I think it will be good to get at least one going. Armor because you will have more of it on!
All right Nessrean!
Im bummed that ESO does not have capes!
THANKS!
YES! The tail should be protected it is a major vulnerability!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I am changing out my armor every 2 levels, it is quite fun with my large supply!
Sadly, I don't think any TES games at least as far as I know have capes. There might be mods of capes but you can't really mod an MMO. Sorry Justin. And Nessrean
Tail's are limbs too! How would YOU feel if you had to go into combat with a completely naked tail?! One, tails are horizontal so in thick combat they will actually be in people's way so they will be hit MORE and two, tails CAN be equipped with perhaps a spike or a weapon as well of some sort. Use all you have in war!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
HAHA yes! I have been doing that as well!
Yes...oh well! Yes Sorry Justin and Nessrean!
I would be terrified!
YES! You are right!

Thank you so much for doing the collaboration.
I know you want to draw Nessie and other things but please don't until you are REALLY REALLY REALLY Bored! I hate the thought of making people spend hours to do something like that if they aren't entirely excited about it. I know your schedule is REALLY packed so please, only do it if you are dying to or you really have the time and you are up to it.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
WOW! Really old reply! Poor you!
HEY! SHHHH! NO MAKING! I have to draw him for the index of the book anyway so I shall regardless!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nah, I haven't found the response for it yet. I just looked at the picture again and found it.
GGGGGGGAaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh.............. fine. I'll revel in it's majesty and die of excitement from it but be sure to take your time.
