MY BEAUTIFUL PROTAGONIST MR "ALONE" CONNECTIONTHEME DEATHGATECYCLE

I wrote about Marit and Haplo talking about the future post-canon, I am Once Again obsessed with Marit POV

That’s the name of one of the apartment buildings in Tokyo :).

"I lied," Haplo snarled, grabbing hold of the first mensch that came within his grasp. "I'm not a mysteriarch!" Blue and red sigla from the Patryn's arm flared, enveloped the human's body in dancing runes. The sigla flashed around the terrified man like a whirlwind and, with the speed of lightning, arced from him to the elf he was battling. The jolt sizzled from that elf to the human fighting behind him. Faster than any of them could let go an indrawn breath, the runes jolted through the bodies of every elf and human inside the cable room, sped from there throughout the ship. There was a sudden, frozen silence. "I'm a god," Haplo announced grimly. -The Hand of Chaos, pg 397 There are a lot of really memorable moments in the Death Gate Cycle, but this moment when Haplo absolutely loses his shit after four books of trying to hide or play down his actual power is definitely one of my favorites. I really adore him as a character, but there's next to no canon representations of him; this is my best guess based on a combination of written description, the one actual canon drawing, and various fanarts. It's been nice to finally draw something for Death Gate, now that I finally feel like I'm starting to get to a place where I can actually draw scenes with the attention to detail that they deserve. It's a super underappreciated series, and one that's definitely influenced my approach to writing and worldbuilding a lot.

My husband is finally letting me read some of the earlier books in the Death Gate series (that he based our long running DnD game off of), and I am highly entertained so I doodled this in his planner as a lil' treat.
