Sketch and Color - Lawine

Back in the ancient mists of time of 2005, I had created a dragoness character named Lawine; 'lawine' being the german word for 'avalanche'.  She was meant to be a fighter/mage type of character who used ice/storm-based spells as well as a quarterstaff/swordstaff.
About a year later, I revisited Lawine and gave her a bit of an updated look as well as working developing her character, giving her a bit more detail in her character and back story.

I was never really happy with how she looked in the last drawing, so I finally decided to revisit her again after all this time and give her an updated look, so here we have Lawine for 2012.

Lawine is a dragoness sorcerer that is a member of a guild known as the "Sisterhood of the Violet Circle", a guild that is based in the cold, northern areas of the mainland. At first she seems a little arrogant and smug, but this is actually a bit of a facade she puts on, when people get to know her she tends to be a lot more friendly and calm. She's also very adventurous and eager, more than happy and willing to push herself past what she can normally do to improve herself.

Lawine was an orphan that was going to be used in vile experiments by an underground group, but she was rescued by the guild and eventually taken in when she had no other place to go.
Eventually, she and two other characters of mine; Kavinnes and Raine, would 'adopt' each other as sisters, with Lawine as the 'middle sister'. One thing that connected these three were strange markings that each of them had somewhere on their body, their purpose and meaning shrouded in mystery.

In time, Lawine would have an unfortunate run-in with a demon by the name of Ironclaw; a demon that had gone insane because of Lord Zeleme. She was defeated but rather than killing the dragoness, he instead raped her. She was rescued by her fellow guildmates, but the events had resulted in her becoming pregnant, however she decided to go through with the pregnancy and have the child, feeling that despite what had happened, she would raise her son as best she could and overcome what had happened to her.

That child was Gene.

Overall, I am very happy with how the new look turned out for her, but I've been debating about changing her colors; due to some past issues I am uneasy about keeping the color scheme, so I may play around with it a little down the line, see about altering a few things here and there mainly with her fur and hair.
Otherwise, I'm very happy with how this looks.

 I decided to play around with the colors a bit, just some minor changes to her hair and her fur.
