The Shaman Prince of Varu-Gazol

Whispers can be heard about an ancient cult rising to power again. His priests are powerful sorcerers, using dark magic to form the world to their every will. Some say the rise the dunes to aid them, some believe that these evildoers use necromancy to get what they want. Nothing about these creatures is quite certain. Only one thing is known: they stem from an ancient city far beyong the Wastes, long sunken in sand - Varu-Gazol. This name alone is enough to get every nomad shaking with fear. It is rumoured to lay under tons of sand, still pulsing with evil energy.
And from this city, a prince has risen, one of the most powerful men of his craft. A prince of shamans and neromancers, with a burning crown of thorns. Beware, for whoever crosses his path is destined to perish!


I was really eager to share this look with you! I was really intrigued by the crownlike look of this headpiece and I wanted to create a shamanic, evil presence around it. I love how the shoulders and the coat work together, it really looks to me like they belong together. I know there would maybe have been some way to make the dye scheme more interesting, but I really wanted it to resemble fire and desert, so I kinda toned it down a notch.
Yes, I know he has a pouty face :p But I think it also looks regal and sharp, so this is what I went for. I just wish there would be a Sylvari skin colour that is downright sandish and without any hints of green in it, but this is the best I could get, so it´ll have to suffice.
I hope you enjoy the look ^^
