Role is probably my oldest continually drawn character, and I wanted to find a part for her in Avania, as she never got much of a story despite being drawn quite a bit over the years. However, she was essentially a gryphon, which made fitting her into the canon I had decided on rather difficult; so this iteration went a little farther with updating her design…
I’ll probably post a design history at some point, because it serves as a retrospective of my progress.
