Thava the Dragonborn by Deriaz

Thava the Dragonborn

Deriaz

A sketch commission for Dragonslayer8903 (of Tumblr) of their Dragonborn Fighter, Thava, thinking about bashing in someone's skull with that hammer. She's gotta judge it first though, make sure it's a good enough hammer. (It is.)

Another D&D character that I got to bring to life, unrelated to the previous kobold. These two landed near the same time, to my surprise. Was extremely excited about this one as well, getting to do a proper Dragonborn after so long, and I really hope her party likes the image, too!

    I've been trying to create one of these.......if I ever get to play D&D ever again. :)

    This looks really great! I like the outfit and weapon details there. :)

      They're a very cool race. I love 'em. If I'm allowed to be a Warforged though, I'll usually opt to do that, but Dragonborn are high on the list of "I want it."

      Thank you so much!

        I think they've added some great races since when I grew up with D&D (elf, halfling, human and dwarf)! XD

        You're very welcome! :D

    This is a fantastic piece! It transports me right to Faerun. The outfit and gear are spot on thematically, and that's a perfect dragonborn character. I love it. Love to see it coloured up.

      Hmm. It could be something I color up in the future, maybe for fun/on personal time! I'm sure the commissioner wouldn't mind, too. But it'd have to be much later on -- got a lot to do nowadays!

    it feels like forever since I've seen dragonborn/d&d fanart!! I love how you've simplified the scales, it makes me wanna try and find my old D&D character sheets >w<

      For some reason, Dragonborn get the short end of the stick. I know a lot of 3.5 fans thought they were silly/dumb. So maybe that drove people away from them a bit? They definitely need more love. (Them and Warforged, but I admit my bias.)

      Thank you!!

    Amazing

    Oh mai gah, I loved the ... is that a hammer? XD

    • Link

      It is! And by the looks of it, not one you want to be on the receiving end of!

    Now I'm surious, since you mentioned it...what is an "improper" dragonborn? :D

    • Link

      Oh, hah, I suppose that wording's a little vague, ain't it? I think when I typed that, I meant the idea that there's a lot of dragon characters in the furry fandom, but I don't think they're related to D&D Dragonborn. But that was silly to say in hindsight, isn't it?

      So let's say an "improper" dragonborn isssss... Hmm... Has fins and gills and lives under the ocean. That's a fish. That's not a proper Dragonborn.
