Description
2005Riot, one of my fave changeling characters! She's a seelie redcap (a type of canabalistic faerie). A little rough around the edges, but soft-hearted, heroic, and a good friend.
It has been playfully noted that she doesn't look seelie, and Riot likes it that way. *grin* Think of her as the type of person who sees somebody being mugged/assaulted ect, who would rush across the street, beat in heads and help the victim back up on thier feet.
Drawn with pencil by hand, coloured in adobe.

I love Seelie Redcap girls; I know not why. Perhaps the idea of a warrior-girl that was born from literal nightmares that can eat anything that catches her eye and holds to chivalrous concepts is just plain awesome.

Years down the road when she had twin redcap children her husband had to take a second job just to feed them all. lol
If you haven't seen them yet, check out my Faerie Raid comics.

I totally love the hair. I used to play a Gangrel in LARP who wore strings of beads in his hair. I would spend more hours getting prepared for the game than I spent at game putting the beads in.

XD Oh my goodness, you're like me! I played a Fianna who wore tons of braids and hours before a game I would make my husband sit behind me on the couch and braid my hair up. I used to apply scars with lip liner, and often was approached before a game to add scars/tattoos to other players (every now and again I'd draw the Fianna symbol around my eye before the game started).

I bought one of those Bead Magic kits, and a bunch of extra beads, and would spend hours stringing them into my hair. I loved listening to them going clatter clatter clatter when I moved.
I got the basics for the idea from a Caitiff Diablerist concept I created some time back - he would pick out a ring or a button or something else shiny off of every victim and string it into his hair like the rings on your redcap.

I love this. The style is very, very good.
I enjoy playing Redcaps, too.

I like seelie redcaps. Something about the bad guys struggling to be good always appeals to me.

I keep getting those comments about Riot. O.o Meanwhile the character grumbles and mutters something like 'yeah right' everytime she sees it posted.

very cool and detailed looking character! But if she's a redcap shouldn't she be wearing a bloody hat of some kind upon her head? still badass looking anyway (plus cute). I think Redcaps are also known as powries or dunters

Oh she does! Riot has a biker bandanna that she wears. The reds on it are quite faded though. She'll frequently tie it around her head before combat.

Wow.. lots of peircings.. That tattoo looks like one my friend would want get... (He wants to get lots of demon/angel tattoos... I could never get one though.) Anyways, her expression is wonderful, and I adore her hair style. (The reds are lovely.)

She has many more piercings under the clothes.

This caught my eye. I really love her expression. It's just kinda carefree, but also kinda like, "What are YOU looking at...?"
And her hair is, like, the coolest thing ever. X3 You must've had so much fun drawing that.

Hee, I drew her expression correctly then. ^^
I love Riot's hair. I've always loved braids. When designing her I flipped through 30+ tattoo magazines to look at varying dread/braided hair styles so I could develop one for her.

Lol, her hair is so cool.

I dyed my hair flame red right before my wedding. ^^
*sighs* The grey is starting in my hair now.. I may dye mine black again soon. (perhaps with red streaks?)
π: 0 β©: 1
Lol, that's cool. ^__^
I don't want my hair to turn gray!!!! -cowers- It'd be cool, black hair, red streaks...I say go for it!

Ohh, I have a tatto! I went to Nepal and there you are allowed to get tattos when you are twelve! It's a skull with it's mouth open then a heart with a dagger through it. When I got it my teacher spazzed about that too. I hate her... Yesterday she gave me a detention for coughing. Anyway, let's not talk about that

From a tattoo enthusists knowledge, you honestly shouldn't get tattoos before you are 18. Piercings yes, tats... bad idea. Only because your body is still growing, and your skin is still stretching. By the time your body has reached it's full size, that tat may be stretched and ruined.
On the bright side, tattoo removal technology is constantly getting better and better, and it's always possible to have another artist fix it up, or do a cover-up if it gets too ruined looking.

I wish I could get piercings like that, without my teacher going 'Liek omg *spazzes*' xD

I have a nose-ring myself.. nothing much. I've thought about getting that many piercings as I find it better then tattoos as if you change your mind they come out easily.
I do love tats though, but I believe that you should spend a 'long long' time deciding on what you want, as it's there forever.

I see your getting in touch with your gothic side Pooka!
π: 0 β©: 1
I never truly left it. lol
Riot isn't a goth though, she's more of a punk.
π: 0 β©: 1
Goth is the same as punk to me. The black make-up and stuff like that.
Welcome to DA by the way!

Very cute and she's a canabal so that is really tweaked. Which means I like it. XD Very good. I give you a cookie for good art. *hands a cookie*
π: 0 β©: 1
*eats cookie* Thanks, I haven't had breakfast yet.
Well, canibal spirit... she tries to resist the urge to eat things alive. 0.o Mostly she ends up eating chikens, and has yet to eat a sentient creature.
Although her rich b/f offered to give her an 'eating horse'. She's so excited. (Scarily even more so as a redcap 'could' literally eat an entire horse.

That is so awsome. You have her well thought out as well. Do you quest/roleplay with her?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yuppers. She's my favorite changeling character in the rp my husband and I play. It's not online though, a private, at home rp. ^^
I rarely ever draw images that are not characters.. either mine or a friends.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yep. Thats what me and my BF do... all the timeo... I ain't weird after all. XD You are my inspiration
π: 0 β©: 1
Lol.. nope, I'm the weird one. Even when I was a teenager I refused to date anyone unless he was a rper.

Same here... XD Thats what I really looked for.. someone to be evil with me. mwahahaha.
