Hello to all you beautiful people! So, I just wanted to announce that I will be opening a few commission slots, after my bank account started screaming for its life. I do character art mostly, but you can always ask what do you have in mind and we can work something out! To the ones interested you can check my work on Instagram @realcabadesign (https://www.instagram.com/realcabadesign/) since I'm posting stuff there most of the time. You can also contact me, if interested, via e-mail: realcabadesign@gmail.com. Thank you for your time everyone!

Hey everyone, I've been looking for a while for a guild or group that's currently recruiting so i can start roleplay again. The rp scene in retail has become pretty much nonexistant and rph... is rph... not exactly the friendliest of communities... so I come here in hopes of finding someone that can take me in. In case you're wondering, the character I will be roleplaying is this one: So, if you're interested just pm me here or in discord. If not... I will try finding something in rph... I guess? ;-;

Thank you so much for the feedback ? Yeah, I went the D&D character creation route and did not went into detail about his personality that much, it was mostly because I wanted to check if this would be received well, but i might flesh it out more later on ?

Backstory summary Il'deryn was born in Tranquillien, in the Eversong Woods, long ago, arround when the War of the Three Hammers was raging in Khaz Modan in the main branch of the Netherguard family, a family that posessed a great line of rangers and all round fighters. Ever since little, he practiced his skills with the bow, but he had always felt his calling came from the sword, so he perfected his ways with a blade, and as he got older, he joined the Farstriders and helped them protect Quel'thalas' woods. As the years passed, after the opening of the Dark portal, the words of his skills while fighting the orcish Hordes travelled the land, and it was only a matter of time until the SOns of Lothar reached out to him, recruiting him for the crossing of the Dark Portal into the orc's homeworld of Draenor. Il'deryn accepted this request, and when the Second War came, he crossed the Portal together with his allies, where they became trapped with no way of returning home. While trapped in outland, he rose in the ranks of the Sons of Lothar until he was nominated to become Captain of the Allerian Offensive, a small taskforce that dealt many successful raids to Horde and Legion military encampments. It all changed a fateful day however, when this force was dealt a tragic defeat that killed most of them, making Il'deryn question his leadership skills and retiring from the Alliance forces to travel and find his purpose. During his travels and despite being proficient with a blade, he decided to deepen his arcane knwoledge in these new lands, a search that allowed him to meet the Ethereal Tal'amir, a mysterious being that helped him quite a lot in his endeavors. The two formed a close friendship, with the Ethereal giving him the name Shamas, which meant "Sun" in his native tongue, as they helped eachother raise their skills to a new level and battled the various threats that came their way. Years later during a trip to Netherstorm, the duo was attacked by a massive Voidcaller called Nagra'thax. A long battle took place as both Il'deryn and Tal'amir stood their ground against this foe, but as the battle drew out, the closeness to the Twisting Nether and the constant barrage of shadow attacks made by this void mosntrosity took their toll on Tal'amir, as his body absorbed more and more shadow magic. The Ethereal, unable to even stand up as his body was barely able to hold his form, touched Il'deryn's shoulder, who had come to his friend's aid, and with his final breath, the Ethereal directed all his magic towards the elf's body and told his friend to use his power to finish the beast. Il'deryn looked at his hand, now gripping a dark longsword, as if his friend's energies had formed this iem out of thin air, and from the depths of his mind, he heard his friend "This is my Requiem... Now let's do this... Tal'deryn". The elf, now bearing a new name as if him and his ethereal friend had become one, lunged towards the Voidcaller with newfound strength, and defeated him. As the years passed, Tal'deryn travelled back to Azeroth, but the void energies absorbed by his friend started taking a toll on him, changing him over time into what are known today as Void Elves, however he keeps his high-elven appearance with magic, feeling uncomfortable showing his true form in public due to fear of reprimands from the general public. Disclaimer: I wanted to create some sort of Hexblade Warlock from Dungeons & Dragons, but had no feasible way of giving him a Patron without making him stupidly powerful, so I tried to find a good candidate for the place among the various magical creatures in Warcraft's lore, and an Ethereal sounded the most interesting, and not as lore breaking as giving a Titan or an Old God as his sugar daddy. Kind of happy how this turned out tbh, might actually flesh out his backstory a bit more in the future.

*Vicious Mockery intensifies* I want to learn how to kill a Worgen by telling him his mom was a french poodle!

Sees the money and starts walking torwards it, but the TNT catches his eye and he remembers he's a pyromancer "Huh... Never heard of a fire man who walked next to TNT and lived to tell the tale... Maybe later then..." Walks away

I actualy thought about taht one tbh, but the blade is too wide (you can tell I'm really picky with this stuff xD)

Frostmourne would be pretty decent without the skulls and with a different colo scheme (the original base idea for my character's sword was actualy Frostmourne, then I just changed some stuff here and there). Aggramar's looks a bit big for what I want. I really never tried to remodel stuff and retexture, but if anyone has a simple sword design like the Azuresong Mageblade for example, that would be it. I can try it out if someone experienced in this shows me how to do it propperly xD.

Hey guys! So, I've been wondering for a while about what weapon to use IC (if you've read my character's Bio, you can see he wields a broken blade), and so i tried to find some broken looking swords because using a dagger for it doesn't look good... at all! I know about Broken Promise and Seethe, but their design is too over the top, and Teebu's Blazing Longsword and its lookalikes look decent, but I'd like to have it sheathed and not disappear when I do it. Do you guys know of any items that look like what I'm asking that are unnavailable to players that i should know of? I believe the best example of what i'm looking for would be Turalyon's sword without the big yellow crystal fix it has. Anyways, thanks in advance

Ahaha, thank you! And sure! You can pm me if you want!

Ahaha, thank you! I still have to figure out how to price my stuff propperly tbh. From what other artists tell me it depends on what the people are asking'for, I'll probably work out a chart or something and try to balance the values without under or over'pricing the stuff.

Thank you! And sure! I'll inform you if I do

Ahaha, thanks Romeo

Thank you, I'm glad you liked it! yeah, practice makes perfect I guess. And I also don't intend to do a sloppy job, it's just the fear that it might not br to the person's expectations, fear of failing, sort of. But I understand what you mean and really appreciate the advice! Thanks!

Haha, thank you very much and I will do that (probably even make a post about it in the future). Also, for someone who is not an artist that was a really in depth criticism that I really appreciate. I can totaly see the stuff you pointed out and I will try to correct those mistakes on my next piece! Thank you very much!
