The image is titled: “Shadowhand Essek Thelyss aka Hot Boi™ c. Campaign 2 Episode 57, Art by GrantedDrop”. The image contains four views of Essek, a calm, mid-purple skinned drow with white hair and violet eyes who is wearing long purple-and-black robes and a hooked metallic shoulderpiece/mantle, and each image is accompanied by notes on elements of his design.The first view is face-on and full body, and the notes read: “Short(!) hair” done up in a loose coif, “Mantle for status”, “Deep colors indicating Shadowhand title”, “Steeples fingers frequently”, “‘Pay me no mind’ simplistic & layered robes”, and “No feet visible”.The second view is a zoom of Essek’s face from the previous view, and the notes read: “Perpetual *soft* smile”, “Luxon beacon Kryn emblem” at the hollow of his throat, and “Subdued ear jewelry” that includes ear caps, silver studs, and red-gem pendant earrings, the last of which appear similar to blood drops.The third view is of Essek’s profile, and its note reads: “Dimple only on right side”.The fourth and final view is ¾ behind and full body. He is in the process of casting a simple spell, about to snap his fingers with magic trailing from his index, and the notes read: “Little ahoge hair b/c it’s cute and there’s 'not a hair out of place’” with 'not’ crossed out, “Magic like strings/threads b/c fabric of spacetime becomes more geometric and "goes dark” when spell is cast", “Hint at "interesting underneath layers” with different color sleeves", and “'Nothing to see here’ straightforward lines and silhouette from back”.Additional notes to the right of the image read: “Notes on Constructed Mien: Confident, Amuseable, Detatched, Unimposing, Enigmatic, Composed”.Additional notes to the left of the image read: “Notes on Presented Form: "Avg. 5'8” (174cm) when floating", “5'2” (158cm) when standing, Robes and mantle obscure comparatively smaller frame".The artist’s username 'granteddrop’ is present throughout the image as a watermark. /End ID] -- source link
