AKA "The Softer Side of Shae"

Something I did up for myself in between commissions and work, as it was brought to my attention that I don't do nearly enough with my own characters. >.>

Opted to go with the basic of basic colouring skills I have in order to keep that organic feel to it all.

Part 1 of 2

~lover-martyr and I were discussing our (D&D) characters recently, and it sorta went along the lines of how in game, it really seemed like they were fairly one dimensional characters; D'anna the heal-bot/bait who never really got to find herself and was branded the "emo-child" of the group, and Shaelynn with her "if I can't kill it, its not worth anything to me /ignore" type cast. We sadly never got to really play them out the way we would have liked. Behind the scenes of our sessions however, we developed them, gave them personalities, flaws and emotions, though some were more easily hidden. To mostly quote part of our discussion:

"Shaelynn's like an ogre. By that I mean an onion. The onion has layers. Shaelynn has layers. They both have layers.....and she's been known to make people cry. >.> "

"But you know, not everyone likes onions. What about cake? Everyone likes cake."

"Not everyone likes Shaelynn. No no, she's definitely more like an onion."

"I see your point."

Basically, I wanted to do up something different regarding Shaelynn. She does have a softer almost maternal side, and I wanted to show there is more to her than just being a badass demi-goddess who be-heads orcs and levels entire armies of undead and takes on monochromatic dragons on her own. >.> *coughs* I mean, she was never a "vulnerable" character, though perhaps emotionally closed off, and she never doubted herself or her abilities. Though due to her closed off nature, it was difficult for her to identify those warm fuzzy feelings of caring when it came to her husband and family, but gradually overtime she came to terms with her occasional outbursts of emotion and realized why she felt what she did. Yay for realization!

Anyway, I think I've rambled enough, unless you guys actually genuinely are interested our characters?? o.O

I can't hide the scars I wear from once promising affair
I should have never signed that deal the wounds it caused won't heal
So be careful of desire beware the tempting fire it might be fatal
Can I drive this message home and save a life from going wrong, am I able?

The game is over I've come to the end of this road - I lost my soul on the way up if only I had known
The game is over I'm facing the ruins of my life but I won't go down in ashes without one last cry

Did I make myself heard by shaking up the world? Say was it worth it?
Were my actions justified or just another waste of time and do I deserve this?

The game is over I've come to the end of this road - I lost my soul on the way up if only I had known
The game is over I'm facing the ruins of my life but I won't go down in ashes without one last cry

Et quiscere faciam multitudinem canticorum tuorum et sonitus citharaum tuarum non audietur ampilus
