Darius Vess - No Armor

Published:

Description

Darius Vess is one of the highest ranking generals in the Areldom of Trevis, a moderate sized country rich in a number of different natural resources, including Arcanite.

General Vess is, at his core, a good man and a fine example of what a proper officer should be. He leads from the front and genuinely cares about the men and women under his command and his homeland. His desire to do what is right, not just for the good of the Areldom, but for the kingdom and his people as a whole has often put him at odds with a number of the politicians of Trevis, most notably Areless Bella Enser, who is trying to expand her territories without the king’s knowledge or consent.

Unlike most of the characters that I have presented for Arcanum Flux, General Vess is older, sitting in his late 40’s, maybe early 50’s. While this does not make him a decrepit old man, he is suffering from a number of physical ailments due to his time in the service and extensive use of his Arcanite Exoframe.

In regards to his injuries and age, I feel like you should straighten his legs more, he looks more like he's squatting rather than being weak and/or in pain. You may also want to angle the cane the other way, so he's widening his base or foundation, rather than putting his weight further out on the handle and then having the end of the cane closer to his feet. Finally, I'd say lean his body more towards the cane, even if just by angling his shoulders rather than having them parallel to the ground.
I'm hoping that's a semi-useful critique.
