Meta Rule Clarification
Good day characterdrawing !
There has been an influx of reports for off-topic posts and suspicions of AI use in RF's. There's a few things us mods want to clarify.
OFF-TOPIC:
Your post is off-topic when it doesn't relate to a ttrpg system. If you're looking for art for a book you're writing or a podcast you're running this is not the place. LFA's are free work for ttrpg enthusiasts however that also means that the artist keeps the rights to the work. If you need the art for a project that will be public and you will need the rights you will need to pay for the art. To keep this from becoming a commission focused sub, posts like that are not allowed as we cannot moderate which passion project will remain private and which are for the broader public.
And no, exposure is not valid payment.
AI SUSPICIONS:
This sub is firmly anti-AI. We are also anti-witch hunt. If you see a post that makes you think the artist is using AI please report it and include *why* you think it's AI. If you want to discuss your suspicions please use mod mail and we'll get back to you. Do not call the person in question out in the comments.
We know it's getting harder to spot the difference these days but we want to prevent unnecessary witch hunts and losing real artists because of them.

Request [LFA] Arcadia "Stargazer" Solus, 7'8 Freedom Fighter
Arcadia Solus is a freedom fighter on her Homeworld of Kasirkin IV, a brutal sandy marble that the Kasirkinians somehow managed to call their home. However, in recent years their home and their very way of life has come under attack after the invasion and occupation of their homeworld by the Karrakin Trade Barony's House of Sulfur. Who wish to add Kasirkin IV to their list of conquered planets. Despite the overwhelming odds against them, Kasirkinians such as Arcadia took up arms against their occupiers, in a hopes that one day they can be free once more.
Physical Appearance:
Arcadia Solus is a rather towering and statuesque woman, standing at staggering 7'8, unusually tall for even Kasirkinians. With a skin tanned by the harsh sun of her homeworld, and strong muscles from hard work and fighting. Her eyes seemingly burn brightly with determination and optimism like twin orange suns. While her hair is a dark brown color that fades into a glittering orange. Her fox ears doing the same as well.
Personality:
Despite the rather oppressive and taxing situations she often finds herself in Arcadia has managed to keep a sense of optimism and hope alive in herself and others around her. Always looking forward, always moving forward. Never giving up even in the face of death. This hope was cultivated at a rather young age along with her love for astronomy, a wanderlust to explore the stars beyond the atmosphere of her homeworld. A dream she hopes to achieve when her homeworld is safe.
Gear:
Arcadia is a expert marksman and skilled tracker, as such she wears rather light gear to minimize her overall profile and a sniper rifle for ambushes. She utilizes the hecatonchieres grey wash nanites to allow herself to blend into the environment more easily (solid snakes from MGS4) and to produce a miniature 'sandstorm' to further obscure her position or to blind enemies.

Request [LFA] Sahr - A Very Spooky Character for a Survivor-inspired game
Hi all!
If you've seen the art of Radiance, the tiefling illusionist, Sahr is from the same game. They are aligned in a grueling competition to return to life. They're competing for an audience in the Hells, braving televised challenges each week.
Sahr is not in this game for herself. Much has been taken from her, slowly and cruelly, by a hag who calls herself "Auntie" Lorna. Lorna, unbeknownst to her, placed a terrible curse on her, and offered Sahr a deal: do her dirty work and keep the evil at bay, or suffer again at its hands. She spent years spying, stealing, and acting as an agent in the hag's vile schemes, all in the name of protecting those she loved. As a reward for her service, the hag transformed her into something unrecognizable. Before this, she worked as a healer in her village, using the ancient magic of her people to bind wounds and cure ailments. She comes from a long line of druids who occupy a respected place in her village, and her extraordinary healing talent is only rivaled by the legends of her great-grandfather's gifts.
The only thing she loved more than the great joy of helping her patients was her family: her father Gereh, her mother Astrid, her (older) twin brother Sohren, her husband Ewan, and her daughter, Eirwen. It was her beloved daughter that was taken from her when she refused to steal a child for Lorna. Once Sahr was of no further use to the hag, she found a way to be rid of her, but even in death, Sahr isn't done yet. She has one more chance, one more shot to save the one dearest to her from a cruel fate. If she wins the game, she may yet find a way to save her daughter. One question remains: can she do it?
A few other bits of description:
- She is tall (5'11) and incredibly gaunt; when she lived with Lorna, she barely ate. She is also rather young, no older than her mid-twenties, but grief has worn her down, made her appear older.
- Her eyes are large, doe-like, and glow amber (when she was human, they were brown), and they have deep shadows beneath them. As a girl, she always had insomnia, but her condition worsened when tragedy befell her.
- Her husband died in a mysterious attack in the dark forest bordering her village. Her daughter, who takes after him, was only a toddler at the time. Since then, she has worn her wedding ring close to her heart, threaded onto an old pendant of hers.
- She has the power to assume the form of various birds, but in her culture, it is customary to identify oneself with a particular animal. Her family is noteworthy for their affinity for birds. She most commonly assumed the form of a white swan, but after everything was taken from her, she could no longer recognize herself. She now assumes the form of a raven, much more fitting for her new identity, her new life (and death).
- She loves to sing! She used to sing folk songs and lullabies constantly, her husband called her his "songbird," and her community has a musical ritual, the taeral magra in their language, to celebrate the seasons' change and other notable occurrences in the natural world.
- Her favorite season is spring, her birthday is March 9 (Ches 9 in Forgotten Realms), and she owned a white borzoi named Opal when she lived in her village. Her favorite color is white because of her beloved dog and her former swan wings, now lost to time.

Request [LFA] Alar Starvalor, King of Emmul, villain for D&D campaign
Alar is an aging King with ambitions of conquering the land. In striving for his goals, he employed Artificers to conduct experiments with the intent to merge science and magic to create advanced weapons and super-soldiers. After many attempts, he had his Artificers perform on himself in desperation, creating a monstrous hybrid the likes of the world had never seen.

Request [LFA] Estevan - Old Dancer Bodyguard
Hey folks. Looking for a piece of art for my character Estevan. Let me know if there are any questions.
Estevan is a former performer (dancer) who got recruited into the old queen's secret protection service after he happened to save her life in a very flamboyant way (they may have been trying to have an secret affair at the time). After a long period serving the queen, he eventually got assigned to watch over the new princess and quickly became like a grandfather to her. The princess has now grown up and Estevan has his hands full chasing her around and stopping her overly kind nature from getting herself in trouble with any local ne'er do-wells while generally tending to her and her friends' needs as her primary attendant.
Estevan has fully settled into his role as manservant/bodyguard/attendant for the princess and truly regrets nothing about his life. His sole joy and purpose is the protection of his grand-daughter the princess and he does his best to make sure he excels at that role despite feeling like he's never quite keeping up with her at times.
Physical Description:
- Human male, 60's, 5'6'' but built like he could still heft an elephant if he needed to - honestly picturing ridiculous muscles for someone his age. Blue eyes slightly starting to fog over with the onset of cataracts.
- Had originally pictured long hair tied up in a bun but there are some shorter hair references that look good. Not sure about facial hair - but would have aristocratic features generally. Any hair is white from age.
- A warm climate means the palace 'servant uniform' is lighter, looser clothing. I was picturing a short sleeveless vest, loose baggy pants and some sort of equivalent to ballet slippers. It's kind of slightly revealing but suits him as a former flamboyant dancer / performer and relentless flirt. Colourwise lighter - whites, pinks, blues
- Estevan's weapon of choice is a bladed scarf - utilising his prowess as a dancer to confuse his enemies while slicing them to ribbons. In non combat times I'm imagining it draped as almost a shawl to keep it unobtrusive and not obviously a weapon as he trails the princess around the palace + city. Might be more belt/sash like for art?
- Pose wise (if relevant) I do picture him either being in a neutral unassuming pose while watching people (ready to perform his bodyguard duties) or mid fight, swirling the cloth around like a ribbon dancer.
Thanks!

Request [LFA] Ferren Andras - Earth Genasi Armorer

Hi there! I'm looking to get character art done of a new character I'll be playing. I tried to give it a shot drawing him myself, but wasn't really ever happy with anything I was coming up with. He's my new armorer artificer that I'll be playing. In the game, the arcane armor that he can construct is going to be the infiltrator armor, and I want to use the bismuth gemstone and that sort of color as the "wiring" that powers the armor and allows him to channel energy into lightning blasts.
I'd love to get some art of him done, and feel free to DM me if you have any questions or want any follow up details about him as a character!

Request [LFA] Vampire the Requiem PC, Vesper
Hello! If possible, I’d love to get art of my Vampire: The Requiem character, Vesper. She’s part of the Mekhet clan, which centers around secrecy and knowing things they shouldn’t. Vesper is also particularly adept at getting information from the internet. She’s quiet and prefers to be in the background pulling on strings.

Request [LFA] Kalisse, Archangel of Heironeous
A stoic-faced judge of Greyhawk's LG god of War and Justice. Judiciously appearing for speaking roles as a woman with auburn hair, bronze skin, usual feathery wings, and a dress seemingly made of the summer sky, she takes a different appearance in battle to better reflect unbound holy might. Grossly incandescent and clad in pearlescent armor, her cirrus wings flurry and her hair blazes in a trailing rainbow of icy wisps refracting flame as she brandishes a holy bronze-hafted battle-axe, with a war pick in the shape of Heironeous' lightning bolt holy symbol, all while bolts-from-the-blue crackle behind her restraining eyes.
Planning to have her take part in a combat or two once my party actually quests to her, or maybe just one if they randomly decide they want to test their pride. Regardless, would be blessed to see what you do with the description and my MSPaint photobash.

Request [LFA] Jin'lath Lokruin, the Fire Giant Goliath. The Armored Celestial Warlock and Fitness Influencer to the Gods!
Jin'lath is a fire giant goliath, and like many goliaths she's quite tall and imposing. She stands 7'7" and has grey skin and big messy firey red hair. Some kept in braids some just wild. Many say she's the spitting image of Sune the Goddess of Love and Beauty, if the Lady Firehair was a giant that is.
Maybe this prompted her to become a Paladin of Sune, but thats personal, so we didn't ask. It didn't take long for her to get noticed by a Planetar of Lady Sune, Ashaya. With religion and worship down in Faerun, the planetar Ashaya forged a pact with Jin'lath to help spread the word. Now Jin'lath is a celestial warlock in service of Sune. She promptly became a Vitality Celebrant (Fitness Influencer) for the gods. Her hair changed color that day, at least half of it did and became perfectly pure white.
She now travels the world spreading beauty the only way she knows how, being strong! She uses her rough and ready battle worn beauty and natural muscular physique as an ice breaker before speaking about Sune and sharing her love. "She's yoked!" they cry out. "She's so charming and kind" they say. "She's positively radiant!" they swoon. She always tells the people that Sune demands perfection, and she wont stop until she's the fittest!
Fluff aside...
- Jin'lath is about 30 years old
- Her skin is light grey bordering on blue, freckles, scared from battles.
- Her hair is red/white messy and big, very Norse/viking style, braids and messy (on purpose of course). Left side is red, right side is white.
- She has glowing/smoldering fire yellow eyes
- She's 7'7"
- She's very muscular and strong. Think Vi or Sevika from Arcane, or Miruko (MHA), SheHulk, Striga (Castlevania)...
- She's vibrant and brilliant and bubbly. She can be a bit dense, but she takes her work, her fitness, and her friends very seriously. She doesn't sweat the small stuff.
- She wears heavy chain, scale or plate armor into battle, but doesn't shy from showing off her physique, that's her job after all!
- She's always trendy, Beauty is Sune's decree, even in armor and in battle she looks good.
- She usually wields a pike, sometimes a big two handed hammer.
- She likes layers and accessories and trinkets and pouches and jewelry and so on. Always accessorize!
- She's a "medieval fantasy" equivalent of a fittness influencer. I envision her recording "videos" on sending stones or stones she distributes that play videos and stuff. She's a performer, a cosplayer (disguise kit), a charismatic goofball, always willing to speak with her fans and speak about Sune.
- The sign of her pact, beyond the white hair, is a halo, but the halo can become a collar too. The job isn't perfect she is pacted, by immortal beings who don't know what it might be like to be mortal after all.
Just ask away if you have questions!
Thanks in advance for any considerations!

I'm somewhat slow at drawing (or over-working many spots) so I tried to challenge myself into completing this one in 1.5 hours. It was truly a challenge and how much I'd love to just change a couple spots but oh well :P I did add the shadow and the mist after the 1.5 hours, I'm a cheat like that :D
