QuoteMines the resized wallpaper from the webcomic ScaryGoRound. 'cause I like it.
Ahh, mine's a sprite (fairy? i don't know) from scary go round. He was, i understand, in the employ of Jack Frost.

I thought I recognized Alison's artwork, but I must confess that i am still going through the archives, so I cannot shed any light on who employed the sprite.

but mine is Natalie, who became the angel of death's assistant, and besides liking scary go round, I thought this fit me, as my one friend, who once considered writing a comic, had me cast as the angel of death.

For irony, though, as, while I sometimes have a morbid sense of humor, I would be completely incompetent at that job.  during one memorable, low-level dungeon crawl, we were in a fight with some dire rats as we had decided to retreat after nearly being wiped out in another encounter, but  the GM felt like hindering our retreat with vermin.  anyway, my character and my comic-drawing-friend's character were the only ones left standing, but my freind's had the last dire rat eating his arm, because he had decided, "why blunt my weapon on rat flesh?  I'll just punch it in the teeth."  At that point, I decided that the rat was fuzzy and cute, so, rather than kill it, I cut off my friend's arm and left the rat to chew on it.  as I explained, "why must there be death?  I liked that compromising much better."

It basically boils down to this: Greg Land is great for tracing and posing characters, and that's all.
