                <description><![CDATA[ Okay, so I know that tons of people are doing the 100 themes challenge thing, but this isn't a lame attempt for me to jump on the bandwagon or anything. It's actually a project that I started back in the fall, when I was in Japan. I was worried that I wasn't spending enough time on drawing my characters (It's true! Just look at all the stuff that I've submitted lately. D: ), so this was my attempt to put some effort into that end. Except that instead of going with the whole theme thing, I thought it'd be more fun to draw various moods and facial expressions. I ganked the list from some Livejournal community or other - I think it was originally meant to inspire fanfic drabbles. Oh wells.<br />
<br />
Aaaanyway, seeing that I never update this journal, I figured I might put something a little more interesting up on the front page of my gallery and all. Some of the earlier drawings are linked to my student webspace, because it took me ages to realize that they'd have less chance of disappearing if I put copies up on DA. Also, I finally got off my butt and put together a little directory of all of my characters, since no one really knows who they are. <b>So if you want to know more about who these various characters are, <a href="http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/lbriggs/art_pages/characters.html">click here</a>.</b><br />

                <description><![CDATA[ So, in case anyone out there was wondering what I'm up to these days (oh, who am I trying to kid?! D: ), I'll have you know that I finally graduated from college, and am currently getting ready to head back to Japan. Half a year this time, well, actually closer to five months. I'll be working for Panasonic in Kyoto. Hopefully it'll be fun.<br />
<br />
I'm especially looking forward to checking out all the cultural landmarks that the Kansai area of Japan has to offer. Other things to look forward to are Comiket in August (I want more Pop'n Music doujinshi!! ^o^) and Pop'n Music 14 in the arcades. I'm such a nerd. X3<br />
<br />
Sadly, I haven't done much in the way of art for the past half year or so. Term was really busy and I got into a few computer games and stuff. Maybe I'll pick things up again this summer? Stay tuned and find out. ]]></description>

                <title>OC tag? o_O</title>

                <description><![CDATA[ So <a href="http://robinu-wolf.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/r/o/robinu-wolf.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="robinu-wolf" /></a> started something she calls an 'OC tag'. I'm not quite sure what it is, but it looks like if you're tagged, then you have to fill out a form or whatever. And since this is for OC's I guess the idea is to write about an original character of mine! <br />
<br />
Well, I have several OCs, but if I can only pick one, then I guess I have to write about my favorite necromancer, <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/23507250/">Na'veen</a>!<br />
<br />
<br />
Basics<br />
<br />
1)What's your character's name?- Na'veen Del'bren'shazoren.<br />
2)How old is he/she?- Oh, probably the drow equivalent of her mid-20's. Around 100 years or so? I'm not too clear on human/drow age conversions.<br />
3)Is your OC a boy or ?- She's a chick. *nods*<br />
4)What's his/her race?- Drow (dark elf)<br />
<br />
Appearance<br />
<br />
1)If this character were to suddenly become part of the 3D world, and ended up in a heavily-populated area, how many stares would he/she get?- A ton. It's not every day you see a heavily robed, black-skinned, white-haired, red-eyed elf wandering the streets, now then, is it? Plus the fact that she'd probably be killing everything in sight. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br />
<br />
2)Is your character considered normal in his/her own world?- Not at all. Even the chaotic dark elves shun the dark practice of necromancy, so it's something of a dirty secret of hers. The strain's beginning to wear on her mind too, so she's not always in full control of herself.<br />
<br />
3)What would be his/her most recognizable feature(s)?- Her signature blue earrings and trusty alicorn wand (few things channel death spells as well as a horn taken from the slain corpse of one of the purest creatures in the world). Otherwise, she could easily blend into a crowd of fellow clerics.<br />
<br />
4)Would you consider your OC as attractive?- Sure. Drow are inherently beautiful, and have a high appreciation for beauty.<br />
<br />
Personality<br />
<br />
1)Temper?- No more than any other person, really. Sure she gets angry at times, but who doesn't? Actually, she's probably the calmest out of all her siblings. Na'veen's all about the scheming.<br />
<br />
2)Does your character ever get depressed?- Sometimes, when she realizes that she's still got a long way to go to taking over the Undercity.<br />
<br />
3)Leader or Follower?- Na'veen would never consent to follow anyone besides her Death God, but then again, no one in their right mind would consent to follow her. Good thing her skeletal servants don't have much of a mind at all.<br />
<br />
4)What is the main aspect of his/her personality?- Her megalomania. Na'veen is bound and determined to take over the world. That, and she has a strong fascination with bones. <br />
<br />
History<br />
<br />
1)Did your OC have a family of any sort? If so, are they still alive?- Drow families tend to be rather large, as everyone lives together instead of branching out on their own. Na'veen has a mother and three other sisters (two are half-sisters, but the distinction doesn't really matter - what matters is that they all have the same mother). Her father is long dead, and she has several brothers and aunts and cousins and such. They all live in House Del'bren'shazoren, which is a massive and well-fortified stalactite/stalagmite structure. House Del'bren'shazoren is a minor noble family, and is known for it's strange members... The public just doesn't quite realize how deviant the Del'bren'shazorens truly all.<br />
<br />
2)Is your character out on his/her own? If so, why?- No, Na'veen lives at home with her family. That's what's expected of drow - the family is the most important unit, and is what most noble drow dedicate their allegiance to.<br />
<br />
3)Has he/she encountered any traumatizing events?- Not really. Na'veen's life has been pretty ordinary for a drow (she's ostensibly a cleric, which is a common calling for noble drow females), besides the whole becoming a necromancer part. Converting to the Death God was actually something that she was pleased to do, and there haven't been any serious repercussions yet. However, there's always the future...<br />
<br />
4)What was probably the best time in his/her life so far?- When she converted from the Spider Queen to the Death God. It granted her power, as well as a whole bunch of ways of wreaking havoc upon her family's daily life. Nothing pleases a drow more than gaining influence over others, although one has to wonder if Na'veen's actually gained control over anyone at all.<br />
<br />
Romance<br />
<br />
1)Single?- You betcha. Who dates a necromancer, seriously?<br />
<br />
2)Has your OC developed any romantic relationships? If so,... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Wow. The fact that the DA search is finally working is worth a journal entry. That just might be enough to get me to hang around here... Heh. Not that I have time for art - I'm rather apalled by how much my artistic productivity has been cut down by school. There's a rather nice picture that I've been working on since the start of August, and I haven't touched it since I got back to the States. Arggh! It's so frustrating!<br />
<br />
In happier news, I finished my Pop'n Music doujin scanlation project. I just need to figure out how I'm going to host it online, and then it will be free for the world to read. Mwahahaha! As if anyone cares. o_o;<br />
<br />
Oh well. I'm going to go browse for Deuil piccies with the search option! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Hah! I've totally ignored this place for ages. It's just so slow and huge. It annoys me. Plus, my art isn't very good, and I'm pretty active on my FAC account instead (I'm known as Rindi_chan over there). Oh well. I put a few more scraps up. Maybe I'll toss up some decent pictures. *shrugs*<br />
<br />
I'm starting my senior year in college so I'll probably be way too busy to do much in the way of artwork anyway. Drawing time's going to be cut into because I'm suddenly getting an urge to start scanlating all of the doujinshi that I bought at Comiket this summer. Anyone interested in Pop'n Music doujin? ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Well, I have been meaning to set up a  DA account for a good long while now,  but I've been too busy with school.  Plus, I haven't been drawing all that  much lately. I got excited a drew a  bunch of sketches tonight, so that  inspired me to start up an account at  long last. Not that the sketches are  likely to make it on here. They're not   all that great.<br />
<br />
Anyway, I guess I ought to throw up a  picture or two. <_<; ]]></description>
