Hope ya like it, Mel!




My character for consideration:

Name: Fiona Muirenn (AKA Lady Luck)

Species: Human

Appearance: Light blond hair to her shoulders, notably clear blue eyes and short of stature. Often wearing a pinstripe business suit and fedora, though she has been known to put on some glad rags (in other words, glam it up) when in social circles. Considered to be highly attractive (and thus all the more frightening). Usually wears an apathetic expression, better for business.

Personality: Ambitious and calculating. Fiona is very business like, but also has a strong (if twisted) sense of justice. Does not hesitate to bend the rules (in fact, she makes a living out of it) unless they are her own. Fiona also has a very ironic sense of humor, but also has a hereditary Irish temper. However, she is extremely generous to those who she considers friends.

Brief Biography: (most up to date) Fi worked her way up through the ranks doing dirty work in the alleys of New York; bumping off annoyances and the like. During these early years, she earned the nickname 'Lady Luck' for her uncanny ability to wiggle out of tight spots and the strange habit of always coming out on top. Shrewd and calculating, years mobster work seem to have made her cold and aloof. But she tends to open up around her older friends, and has a deep hidden soft spot for children. Though just the previous year she was merely a speakeasy watcher, collecting security payments and keeping social ties open with establishments for the family, she has now become a much higher ranking member. Now, Fiona spends most of her time issuing orders and meeting with the up-and-ups of other gangs. Her sudden promotion eight months ago was likely the result of her 'returning from the dead,' after being assumed killed in a car bomb. She made a miraculous return, and both her popularity with the masses and her standing with the Muirenn's head sky rocketed. A few months ago, she vanished from sight again. Where she went and what she did are a mystery, but it is rumored that wherever and for whatever reason, she was with Detective Bruyere...

Sample Image: (I haven't drawn her in a while, so neither of this are very good u_u; but you'll get the general idea...lawl) Dressed up like Jessica Rabbit <--- LULZ this was an art trade with Walter Barrecks XD Her first ever appearance And not a very good one at that. Oof...

Special note: Fiona is from a 1920's game. Thus the slang and the pinstripes and mobster stuff ;) Want to see some great examples of 1920's stuff? Albeit involving cats? Lackadaisy is one of the best internet comics in existence. Check it out!

Awww, you're too kind, Forky! :3 I'm sure Melfina would like to see it too. We would ALL like to see it. *Puts more pressure on you to do it!* We're all waiting and watching!

But anyway, this month's contest is OVAR. Results will be up soon.

Sorry I haven't spoken much in this topic. I've been swamped!

Congrats to the winners!

I think everyone did a great job, including you, DJ. I don't want you to quit anytime you don't place in one of the contests. I want to see you improving constantly like you have been. Don't get sad when these things happen. Just take it as an opportunity to do something different next time or to get better. I haven't placed in every contest I've entered. I have lots of improving to do. :P

The thing that mattered to me most in this particular contest was the creativity with my character. Since I didn't give a lot of description, I was looking for a very creative use of the description that I did give. That is what determined the winners for me, and why I gave points the way I did. In the last contest that I won, I hated my drawing, but I think I won because I was the most creative. My drawing may not have been the most beautiful, but I went out of my way to make it unique and do something no one else was.

/end minor rant. :)

Dovey, thank you for the kind words. And thank you everyone for the lovely art for me to take with me as I go.

Forky, you better submit your cosplay thingor. >_> 'Twould make me very very happy. <_<

(Dovey, the link to Interior Motives' work on your post announcing the winners isn't working! It takes you to an Error page on DA!)
Today, Friday, October 10, 2009, is my last day on RolePlayGateway.com.
Everyone give me lots of love, because I shall be handing lots out. <3

Waaah, good catch, Melfina. It's all fixed now.

And goddamn, I'm going to miss you FO SHO... You always know the right things to say. I'm just like, "Oh, try harder, DJAtomika," and Melfina, you're like, "*UNICORNSSPRINKLESANDYOUCANDOIT." I hope the staff doesn't, like, lapse into apathy in your absence. Well, at least, I'll try harder not to, in the name of all things Dani and Melfina and such...

HUGS N' NOM NOMS. ;_;

Thanks for the encouragement Dani. I think I shall refrain from entering one too many contests in a row for now. Deadlines are killer.

Deadlines can be killer, but they are also motivation to draw something else for more practice. Even if I don't submit stuff here, I've been doodling in my sketchbook a little. :)
