Description

Neraida is a warrioress from the order of Amazons, proud and devoted to the war goddess Rondra. At the age of 19 she experienced her first big adventure when she joined Asleif "Foggwulf" Phileasson's crew in 1007 BF on his epic strife against his arch-rival Beorn the Blinder. During the long-lasting quest she needed to leave Phileasson, in order to help her Amazon sisters, who were threatened by an extraordinary menace (which she doesn't like to talk about) by that time. Yet before Phileasson ended his grand quest, she rejoined him and helped him to complete the final tasks the Gods sent upon him, and contributed to the victory over Beorn.

Neraida features the character traits of the southern people, being hot-blooded and short-tempered. She is a warrioress full of pride and dedicates all her fighting (both physical and spiritual) to her Goddess. She likes to treat males in a condescending way, and doesn't feel comfortable in crowded places or larger towns.

I must say that this sketch has definitely surprised me. Especially the woman's choice of clothing. :/ I like the intricate details of the armor and the shading is pretty great! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/> (Love how you've drawn her cape. >W<)

Here is a list of things you need to improve on:

- In my opinion, the neck is too long to be proportional between the head and shoulders.

- That thing that I really don't like is the fact that she isn't wearing a shirt. Yeah, I don't like people wearing revealing clothes. >_<

- Just an idea. Looks like this girl is ready to battle. Why not show some indication that there is someone or something she is fighting against? You know something dramatic and like a call-to-action! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b…" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="366" title=":D (Big Grin)"/>

Hope you find this helpful! <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/>
