Soldier of Christ (with and w/o helmet - didn't think of doing the image with him holding the helmet until later and I'm too lazy to redo it)

Another denizen of Rome World:

 

When the family of Dr. Leonidas Paraskeva -- the creator of the Legio Ferrum

battlesuit technology -- was killed as a result of a terrorist attack by men in

Visigoth battlesuits, he set out to use his technology to create the instrument

of his vengeance. The discovery that the Visigoth battlesuits had been created

using his technology only served to fuel his determination, and before long, he

managed to create a battlesuit which was even more powerful than those he

had designed for the Emperor.

 

Taking the name of the warriors who had fought for his homeland in ancient

times, Leonidas Paraskeva now battles those who seek to terrorize and mur-

der the innocent as the armored vigilante known as Spartan.

These folks were inspired by one of The Arc's earlier posts (the Hordes of Light one):

 

Archfoes of Lord Dark Matter and his forces, and ally to those who fight against him,

the White Lady and her faithful followers -- the Guardians of the Light -- can always

be counted upon to hold the line against the darkness.

Re: A DC Animated-style HeroMachine

 

I just got a new batch of cleaned-up pics from The Arc (thanks again, Arc), and this

is one of them.

 

This pic is of a character from one of David Weber's non-Honor Harrington novels,

In Fury Born. The central character of the story is Alicia DeVries, a former Terran

Empire "drop commando" (sort of a combination of Delta Force and Marine Force

Recon soldier) who winds up hosting the essence of Tisiphone -- the last of the

Eryines, the Furies of Greek mythology -- after the latter saves her from death

when the colony world on which she and her family live, after a "pirate" attack in

which her family is murdered. DeVries later becomes mentally linked to an "alpha-

synth" -- an advanced artificial intelligence -- that is later named Megaira, and is

essentially an extension of DeVries' own personality. The Alicia/Tisiphone/Megaira

gestalt then begins the search to find those responsible for the massacre of her

family.

 

A little explanation about the pic: Megaira and Tisiphone don't actually have human

bodies, much less facial features; Tisiphone is basically an energy being, while her

AI "sister" Megaira can produce realistic images of human beings on a video screen,

complete with individual voices. The "faces" on either side of Alicia in the pic were

meant to represent the non-human elements of the gestalt personality; the face on

her right is of Megaira, while the one on her left is of Tisiphone. The outfit that

Alicia has in the pic is meant to represent the outfit she was wearing in the story's

epilogue, in which she becomes a member of the Terran Empire's Justice Depart-

ment with the code name 'Fury'.

 

DISCLAIMER: I do not own any of the characters displayed or otherwise mentioned

in this post; they are the creation of David Weber. This picture is presented here

solely for entertainment purposes.

Re: A DC Animated-style HeroMachine

 

Many years ago, I was part of a Champions campaign which included Ironclaw

co-creator Jason Holmgren as one of the players. His character was an escapee

from PSI, a (then) teenage teleporter whose mental conditioning broke as a re-

sult of a battle between PSI and VIPER, leading her to become a superheroine.

 

Since I had done most of the on-paper pics of the PC team, I also did one of

Shadowarp (which was the name of the character), based on his description.

 

Recently, I broke out my copy of Shadowarp's character sheet and updated it

to reflect the passage of time, after which I updated the pic as well.

 

The pic where she's wearing a sleeveless and legless leotard, as well as a short

cape, is the original design. The pic that shows her in a long-sleeved, legless

leotard with a leather jacket is the current version of her outfit (at least as close

as I could get it with Fabrica). I also replaced the PSI insignia with a letter 'S' on

the belt.
