[b]story:[/b]
Ancient dwarven Archengineer, Jozog was returned to
life by ambicious adept of necromancy - Azreeh. Azreeh
moved his own soul into dwarfs body, took control over
it and possesed remains of the dwarfs precious
knowledge.
It was needed in order to make and properly use an
artifact weapon.
The weapon that will help to fight the way through
tunnels that recently appeard on planets surface.
Tunnels burrowed by metal beasts was leading to
the same wormholes as 1000 years ago, which this time
appeared deep below the ground.
The task was to travel by the wormhole to the metal
beast's world and get the secret of their technology.

artifact weapon:[/b]
The artifact itself was a pair of gauntlets filled
with static energy.
Normal Invoker would be able to cast lightnings and
turn his enemies to dust by touch.But Azreeh wasn't by
all means normal Invoker, and with the ancient
knowledge, he soon learned how to use runic gauntlets
to control most aspects of electromagnetism.

tunnel fight example:[/b]
Using both hands Azreeh magnetize metal creatures,
binding their limbs to bodies, making them unable to
move as long as he concentrate. He could even bind a
whole group of creatures and weld their bodies together
with single lightning strike.
Finally, that ball of metal bodies is melted into lake
of glowing fluid from a safe distance in a matter of
several seconds, by huge and noisy electric arc.
To pass over this hot lake Arzeeh straighten his
hands facing them to the ground, gathers
energy in the gauntlets and creates gravity
well to fly over it ( simple levitation ).

Here's the initial sketch of Azreeh in Jozog's body.
On the left there was my first conception with rod and
gauntlet, but as i read that dual artifacts have to be
the same i made a second version.
You can see a container on dwarfs back - this is some
necromantic device feeding dwarf with lifeforce,
so he doesn't feel hunger as a usual undead
would.
Electromancer's uniform will be made of various non-metalic
materials, maybe some ancient high tech pieces (i dont
know yet), some ceramic(?),rubber,leather,
wires hanging here and there ( stabilizing energy,
powering the lifesource container), isolated boots and
lots of glowing runes.
Just to be clear - there is no
electronic/digital/advanced technology in this design,
just an partial ancient knowlegde adapted to new magical ways
of creating and controling power.
). So ill have to make some minor changes to make it look more robotic.
Nice work, and good luck with the rest!
