Psychic Saber

Postby Harpalyce » Sat Jul 16, 2011 3:45 pm

I need to mull over who exactly this fellow is.

I have to say, though, felines - especially big cats! - are TOTALLY out of my element. I am so much more used to drawing humans. XD;;; So if you have a comment/critique about the anatomy, please share! Thanks :>

Name: Sinon
Greek: "Σίνων", from the verb "σίνομαι" - sinomai, "to harm, to hurt". Also references the mythological character of Sinon, who convinced the Trojans to bring the wooden horse into Troy, bringing about its doom.

Age (at most 400): 268

Gender: Male

Element: Psychic

Personality:
Coy and sly. He comes across as something of a pacifist, though in reality he would rather manipulate others around him than go into battle himself. He is very much a puppet-master, unafraid to lie and twist the truth as long as he earns the allegiance of others - and similarly unafraid to play people against one another, exploiting divides already there. Paradoxically, he comes across as quite charming in person, which is why he is able to so effectively control people.

Attacks:
"A battle avoided is a battle won."

Most of Sinon's attacks are based in tricking his opponent. He can create and manipulate illusions as to make an opponent think that there are many copies of him, or more simply that there is a bridge over a chasm when there isn't any. He prefers to barely lift a paw and to keep battles entirely at a distance. If a physical confrontation is needed, he relies on others he has manipulated to fight directly for him.

In fact, he is so open about his philosophy that he wears gold sheaths on his long fangs. These dull the points as to be quite useless in combat, but they look quite dramatic and flashy.

Armor type (silver, gold or bronze):
None - the cloth wrap he is pictured with is as close as he gets to armor. As he avoids direct physical confrontation, he sees no need for armor directly. Instead he wears a long black cloth, wrapped about him into a hood, gathered through a skull at his chest. This ties on his back, leading into strands of decorated beads and bells.

Special Ability:
While Sinon is stationary, he can create illusions that are not only visual, but interact with the other senses as well: sounds, temperature, sensations, etc. It takes extreme mental fortitude to resist these and see reality.

Story: ...workin' on it!

We meet again Harp.xD

Yus you drew a cat!<3 I love this drawing,the 'costume' is amazing,it has to be my favorite part.

However,if you look at its fangs,you can see how they face different ways.Also,from the eye to the snout seem to be a very big gap,and the snout doesn't look like it comes out enough.Legs are a little short,but other than that,this picture is just wonderful Harp,WONDERFUL.

Don't let anyone else tell you different,because it is,as I said above,wonderful. (:

I think this is gorgeous.

It's, like, a villainous little red riding hood.

I think the tail looks a bit wolfish, but other than that, looks like you nailed it. c:
and the comment above xD

Don't give up hope, you guys! :P If you go in expecting to fail, you WILL fail. Do this to have fun. :)

And thanks for the critique! The teeth are a bit wonky, aren't they, LOL... I'll fix it in a bit :)
