Darien: *clearly traumatized by Gabrielle dying for his sake and doesn't know that trauma is being used against him*

First Wormblood "doodles" to figure out how I want to draw this guy.

Some notes on his looks:

-I took advantage of the notion that people think he's related to Mannimarco to vaguely give him his looks (definitely not me having same face syndrome). Having said that, I went with a more pinkish skin tone just to differentiate him a bit.

-I decided to take literally the cultists' decription for his eyes from his Meet the character, making them a brownish-black.

I'll ignore his actual eye color (blue?) from the teaser image... unless ESO will make me double down once his face is clearly revealed.

-Black paint is more of a personal touch. I do love my necromancers with painted bits, but to give it a functional reason, paint helps him keep his masked eyes looking as dark as possible without skin showing from beneath. He can be a little dramatic, as a treat.

-I surrender to the fact that he DOES have a moustache and a goatee, even if I think it doesn't fit him at all. Better making it work now then later!
