Description
A New Warhammer 40k character concept, based on the Farsight Enclaves supplemental codex lore.

The short explaination. In Warhammer 40k, the galaxy is pretty grimdark [literally, that's where the meme comes from] but the Tau Empire are basically one of the few groups that aren't irredeemably evil, stupid or bloodthirsty. They're a highly technologically and culturally advanced race, surprisingly so for their relative youth compared to other races. However their apparent utopian society might not be as perfect as it looks, as a small but powerful sect of renegades under the ex-commander "Farsight" have broken away to form their own set of colonies in uncharted space, believing the ruling power of the empire to be corrupt and hiding the truth from the public at large.

In short, while my previous 2 Tau OC's are part of the main "empire", this one is from a renegade faction of the same species. I'll post some backstory and lore for this character another time, not a whole lot to say about her at this second. Plus this description is getting long winded enough as it is

Took about a day and a half including some delays. This is a bit of a blend of other design elements I've seen among Tau characters, be they canon or fan-made, so if I'm infringing on your IP accidentally, do tell me and I'll make sure to credit you.
