Description

Warning for furry boobs?

D&D character I currently have. Was not planning to draw her since its only a 3 game campaign, but I got bored at my internship and suddenly wanted to sketch her out

Name: Venefere Ferocitas
Race: Half-Gnoll/Half-Wood-Elf
(DM approved edits to race combination to create a LA+0 race)
Class: Spirit Shaman(3)/Wu Jen(3)/Geomancer(9)

Tail, random feathers, and wings (and hidden gills) are all part of the Geomancer class for those unawares.
Fur is a coppery brown base with dark brown/black markings (wings are the same). However, through geomancer she can also change colours like an octopus to give her a bonus to hide checks. I've also decided if she isn't careful her mood can make her change colour as well.

Background:
Child of a Gnoll (father) and Wood Elf (mother), she was abandoned as a child of rape to what was assumed to be an old temple that was no longer occupied. However, this temple was actually an ancient home to followers of Obad-Hai. She was raised within the temple by fey, wandering elementals and other spirits, as well as much older followers. She was taught the ways of nature and strength and was found to have an affinity for the spirits of all types (possibly because of their early involvement with her growing) and was often found talking to herself. When questioned she pointed to the blank air and said she was speaking to her Crow (her spirit guide). To gain even more power within the magical realm, she took up the oath to never cut her hair and fur and later took up the oath to never drink alcohol.

Most of her equipment that isn't made from natural materials was either scavenged from those who had been in the area or taken if she killed them for whatever reason.
Whatever reasons tend to include: forest burning (small camp fires are fine so long as they didn't spread into wildfires), over logging (understands a few trees are sometimes needed to build), over hunting, etc.

Sometimes she just scares them off depending on how much harm she deemed they were causing. (Scaring worked more as she began to become more attuned with nature as her appearance warped).

As she got older and learned more she tended to no attack the "workers" but would instead seek out those in charge. This sometimes led to her hunting down these people outside the forest (generally at night).
She is still a bit ferocious when provoked though (considering her Gnoll heritage) and can be quick to temper. When death IS on the menu, she enjoys to see her prey suffer by use of painful spells imbued in her arrows. She also does not take to mercy unless someone has a really good reason.
And did I mention socially awkward? Being raised by spirits and nature does not tend to lend one to societal integration.The few humanoids that were at the temple helped a bit, but fey do as fey are and mischievous behavior abounds.

(Note: the temple to be part of the Brotherhood of Equals)

Raven purposefully has Venefere's wing lines going through it because it is a spirit raven as per the Spirit Shaman class. No one else can see/hear/etc it but herself as it is her.

May or may not ink at some point.
