Fantasy role-playing games owe a debt to fantasy art. In order to visualize your character, it helps to have portrait examples as inspiration. I'm loading up a few posts with a collection of RPG characters portraits that I've collected from ...somewhere. If someone comments with a link to the original source of this entire set, I'd appreciate it.
First up, we have a collection of female portraits. Women in fantasy art are sometimes depicted in controversial poses and revealing outfits. Rather than wade into the debate or argue the merits/demerits of sexuality in the medium, I'll simply hand-wave and say unequivocally that art is art. I'll have a matching post up soon for male character portraits and just maybe they'll be just as provocative. Or perhaps not.
I'd love to spend the time to write short flavor text for each portrait, or perhaps roll up some stats. For now, bring on the women kicking ass.
