Well.. this is going to be long, I am sure. I hope you don't mind Storygirl, that I am borrowing your little form for telling about characters.

I will do then in no particular order, other than the order of my favorite characters...

Name: Anissa
Nickname: Nissi
Gender: Female
Species: Human
Height: 5'5
Hair color: A sort of golden brown
Clothing: as a slave, black, ripped, grimy dress, very loose (being far to big for her)... hemmed up to her mid-calf. As a bondservant to the Great King, marine blue dress with flowing sleeves, a maroon inset, and gold embroidered flowers (see attached picture).
Age: 16
Personality: Very hopeful, desperate, but sweet. Determined, once she sees hope. A very willing and hard worker when for the right cause. She is of the far more serious type, but learns to lighten up as she becomes new as a servant of the King.
Other appearance: Hazel eyes... long black eyelashes. She is slim and slightly pale.
Weapons: None.

Name:Tarin
Nickname: None
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Height: 5'11
Hair color: Dark Brown, straight, chin length
Clothing: burgundy tunic, black breeches (leggings... whatever you call them), leather belt
Age: 17
Personality: Caring, compassionate, helpful, fun, quirky, eager, willing, determined, impatient
Other appearance:strong, tan, wears a bracelet made of links from his father's chain mail
Weapons: small, ivory handled dagger

I will domore of my characters later... these are the two I will do now. I was hoping to do more, but I have other things to do at present. I hope you guys like my characters!

BTW, in the attached picture, no, Anissa is not missing a hand... I just didn't draw it. Also, she really is much prettier, I just couldn't draw her as pretty as I wanted...

Love your names! The picture is drawn very well, I love the eyes. Your characters look fun. Do they know each other in your book?

Thank you very much!

They do know each other eventually in the book. Tarin is the reason that Anissa gets saved. He is the one that asks the Great King to set about getting her saved.

Pretty good. I'm a terrible drawer. If I tried to draw one of my characters, I don't know what it would look like.
