The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

An elven skeleton wouldn't look much different from a human skeleton, maybe just as much as a Neanderthal, certainly less than a gorilla. However, Mal M'Brin is a fresh lich; he wouldn't have reached that stage yet. So having a portrait and sprite with a nose and ears would actually suit him better....

Haha! You seem to have missed out a rather iconic elf feature, the ears! If I understand right this is more like a mummy than a skeleton, so it might make sense for him to have one broken ear? Well, the problem is this portrait wasn't intended for him, just some available art used as a placeholder....

Hmm, instead of stretching the definition of necromancy one could say necromancy is the norm here, but even then our holy paladin is starting to turn into an arch lich.

Though 7 years is an impressive stretch even here.

Yeah, the second drawing looks pretty good, though it could be closer to the sprites.

Come on ugly is one of the last words I'd use. Sure they could benefit from some anatomy lessons (especially Li'sar) but I think Konrad is pretty decent.

This version of Li'sar is much better than the last, but Bimbo Barbie will never be a good look.

Ok, the Li'sar one is a joke at best, but this is quite good.

(on the other hand Harper is supposedly a female name, why did he get it as a male character in the beginning?). Harper is a gender-neutral name, it means "someone who plays the harp". First, it became a family name like most professions, and when it was used as a first name, it was mostl...

As far as I can tell Saurian magic is occult, like witchcraft and voodoo. While outsiders often see it all as dark and wicked, its core concerns deal with the strange and supernatural of any flavor. Communication with the dead is part of that practice and some of the darker branches would see necrom...
