When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.
Artist's Comments
Nigel Marx of Obertus. Sabbat Vampire. Tzimisce scholar.
Nickname: Fiends The Tzimisce consider themselves apart from and superior to other Kindred, by dint of their unique Disciplines, unnatural ethical views and the inner-structure of their Clan. Many Tzmisce are warriors or religious leaders within the Sabbat, though many lead existences devoid of other Vampiric contact, instead surrounding themselves with servants and slaves. They are obsessed with their birthplaces and graves, usually possessing some of the soil from the location of their Embrace, over which they are fiercely territorial. The Tzimisce are known for their body altering technique, called Vicissitude or, less formally, "fleshcrafting". Tzimisce can supernaturally alter the bodies of living and undead organisms, even to the point of melting them. For this clan, body alteration is an art and a philosophy. The Tzimisce seek physical and spiritual purification and perfection, though their interpretations of these concepts are often alien or incomprehensible to humans and sometimes even to other vampires. They often "fleshcraft" themselves into forms they believe to be beautiful and/or terrifying. The most common "path of enlightenment" for a Tzimisce is called the "Path of Metamorphosis", and is a replacement for their lost humanity. Tzimisce with this path only have one goal with their whole existence: to become so powerful that the whole world becomes part of themselves — Azhi Dahaka, when the world becomes a part of yourself, a sort of inverted Nirvana. --Wikipedia So I've been snagged by my friends to do character portraits for the Salem: Trial by Fire website. So, I'm going to put them up here, before I send them over for the site. This is the first of many, And I'm really proud of it. Took about 9 hours overall. One of my first digital pieces, which in and of itself makes me giddy. Nigel Marx belongs to hhcFastOrange. Artwork and the original photo by MoriwenCartel. |
