Races of middle earth - Character - Arionari

[Satyricon]

:) Hello my friend! That's a very nice drawing you have here. I'm looking forward to see this creature in "flesh". Good luck!

[Inari]

This creature is the only one of her race. Ancient and immortal. She was entirely forgotten for thousands of years as she was held in a sort of "prison" by the influence of the powers of the Balrog. She is extremely sensitive to the energies of other creatures in middle earth and takes great pleasure in experiencing intense emotion and feelings (good or bad) when they are given off from other beings. She has feathered wings and stands about 15 feet tall. Her skin is smooth and pale blue with darker blue, natural, spiral designs that resemble tattoos. She often tries to inspire intense emotions in others and is practically addicted to them. She has started more than one conflict this way, by influencing others behind the scenes and feeding from their love, torment, anger, hate, self-sacrifice and anything else she can inspire.

She was drawn to the demon Balrog thousands of years ago because of his intensity. She nearly went crazy trying to amplify his violent, destructive nature and often fought with him to bring his hostility to its peak. She succeeded and suffered an "overdose" of pure energy. She went into a deep, coma-like sleep and has only begun to awaken again as the Balrog was destroyed.

She awakens with a smile as she senses the incredible energies in the air surrounding the ring, the new armies, the battles and those linked to them.

Here is the basic shape so far. It still needs tons of work. This is the first time I have gotten back into 3D in a long time and this is my first time trying this modelling method, so bear with me.

Very interesting back story.

Very nice concept art/sketch.

I am happy to see things taking shape, and I am excited to see this one completed. I'll keep checking this thread to see how things are going.
