Ensnare

Since a lot of people are putting screens of their characters up here to get drawn, I figure I'll go ahead and put my brute and scrapper up for people to draw if they like.

Sweet and Innocent : 9 year old SS/Inv Brute. The terror of her elementary school, even the teachers aren't safe from her wrath. But, of course, she plays the perfect angel in front of her parents.

Nightsaber : 22 year old DM/DA Scrapper. Loner, wallflower.

I also believe that anyone can learn anything, though unlike others here, I also believe there is an absolute limit to an individual's abilities in a given subject. That limit likely stems from how each person's brain operates. Naturally, logical people will excel at logical subjects and artistic people will excel at artistic subjects.

For example, I would say that my brain operates 95% logical, 5% artistic. Math and sciences I soak up like a dry sponge soaks up water, languages are not as easy for me to learn, but I still have little trouble doing so.

Artistically, I have spent a good deal of my life playing musical instruments, but I am mediocre at best as a musician, and I have no ability for original composition. Writing; I can put words together just fine (because of my ability with languages) but I don't have the artistic gift for making a story interesting. Drawing; well, I screw up stick figures.

All of those are not from a lack of determination or practice, I just have my own absolute limits to my abilities at them. I keep trying to do those artistic things because, honestly, the ease of learning the logical things makes them boring to me and I'd rather be interested in what I'm doing.

I would love to know that too. Hell, I'd probably be making quite a few orders, if they would make for other MMOs as well. Yes, I'm one of those freaks that gets attached to my play characters.

A few of my pieces are in my sig. I'm updating my website tomorrow ( DouglasShuler.com ) to include a ton more samples and more info on commissions.

Oops, I guess I jumped the gun.

I originally made this one as an AR blaster, but when CoV came out, a SS brute seemed like more fun for the concept:

Sweet and Innocent

Sweet Sarah - taunted the Tsoo ambush off me outside Icon. The first wave would have been a tough fight (4 evens and a Sorcerer) but the second wave (orange with 2 Sorcerers) would have slaughtered me if she hadn't helped out.
