Sometimes when I make a masked character, I have no intention of ever designing their face under their mask. Not so with Lore.

Some fun facts about my boy:

- Their name is pronounced Lor-eh

- They went grey at 30

- My headcast for them is Oscar Isaac

- I debated whether his pronouns should be he/him or they/them for like a week before remembering I can do both

.... yeah

Incredible bitty versions of my Swords and Sorcery boys by @rosietealeaves! I'm genuinely obsessed with these 😭😭😭 they're all so cute and utterly Themselves.

Mask logistics. He's really locked in there, isn't he? Anyways I make a lot of masked characters and figuring out how those masks would be worn for longterm/daily use has always intrigued me but I haven't taken the time to actually figure it out or put in the work for many of them. Lore gets to be the exception again! They're just god's favorite princess (I'm god)

Fuck it, I can't keep them to myself anymore.

Character design for a 1980s fantasy movie inspired story where two sorcerers find a cursed soldier whose men will kill him if they learn he has been corrupted by magic. As they try to cure him, and they start to understand each other better... well, perhaps you can see where this is going.

Would they be friends, as two sides of the same coin? I'd like to think so. Would their warlord situationships be friends? Unlikely.
