Description
This is my character Tassadar. Admittedly, he started as a Starcraft fancharacter, but he's grown on my alot. I looked it up and found out Tass is a real name. Neat, huh? Anyhow... the letters up top the pic are not my drawings, but rather are the font from Blizzard's Starcraft. I used it to spell his name out because when I drew this pic (January 2003), he was still nothing more than a fancharacter ( Go here for more: [link] ). Since then, he's been in the Pokemon universe, the Sonic universe, my own universe and the D&D universe. I've pondered including him in Greeneye as Antoinette's ( [link] ) brother.Anyhow... despite this pic being two and a half years old, I thought I'd upload it for a various reasons. For one, I wanted one more halfway decent reference pic up here on DA, complete with a good view of everything on him. For another, I felt I owed as much to this pic since it was one of my favorites for a while (I now like the Tassadar Cliff one alot more). I may or may not redraw this one, due to certain mistakes that I constantly hope are overlooked. But I know if I can see them, someone else will too. Hope you enjoy!

XD LOL thanks! Single? Usually. Depends on the RP and how old I play him as.

Awesome. Inspired by SKYRIM, Aye Verily, perhaps?

Thanks. But I dunno what makes you think it's inspired by Skyrim. I uploaded this pic 7 years ago. XD But anyway, this pic was inspired by Starcraft.

He's a cool character, I like him. And the Protoss writing is cool too. I also like the jewel he has (presumably an Argus crystal). He looks very determined.

Glad you like him. The outfit design was based strongly on a pic of a templar I saw once. Very cool pic it was... wish I had the link. Anyways, here's to the upcoming Starcraft 2!

Forgotten Heros
Zues: Previously thought to be the most powerful of the Forgotten. Even through his diappointing loss of face before the child Tassadar he remains to be a kindred spirit and a tactful mind. He retains his position as leader of the Maldukes Clan and the highly respectable head of the Forgotten forces. His faith in the child that trumps even his power is far greater even than he realizes. His DNA is a mixture of Commander James Raynor's and the deceased Executor Fenix.
Nefarti: Zues' good friend and only real comrade before Tassadar. She retains a great deal of dark power; enabling her to use abilities previously used only by Dark Templar. She leads the Vanguard; a sect of mysterious espionage and black ops. warriors. She only follows commands from Zues. She retains an almost mother-like concern for the child-hero Tassadar. Her DNA is a combination of the few remaining human DNA samples of Sara Kerrigan and the deceased Matriach Raszagal.
Tassadar (Tass): Among the Forgotten he is thought to be a reincarnation of the fallen Protoss hero by the same name and also believed to be a Chosen One who will restore peace and tranquility to the war-torn sector. Tassadar is the first Forgotten to be born by alternate means (besides cloning) and not by Xel'Naga. His life began as a strange Protoss experiment and he evolved from there by absorbing DNA from a Protoss soldier and Human scientist who had captured the experiment. His abilities to control Human, Protoss, and Forgotten weapons and energies excells that of even Zues, but even in the face of shame the elder Forgotten treats the child with kindness and respect.
Thor: A cold and calculating officer, his role is the processing and protection of raw resources. This ultimately makes him the richest of all Forgotten commanders. His relationship with other Forgotten officers is rocky to say the least. He is hated among his "comrades" and troops alike. He has a total and apparent lack of faith in the "Promised Child" or Tassadar as he is otherwise known. He has a particular distaste for Zues and Nefarti. His DNA comes from the deceased General Edmund Duke and the fallen Protoss hero Aldaris.
Zasz: A rebirth of the Zerg Cerebrate who occassionally glimpses memories of his past life. He wants nothing more than to destroy his former bretheren, the Zerg. His distaste for them is almost unbearable. He has an especial hatred for the "Queen of Blades" Sarah Kerrigan. His DNA is a combination of Sumir Duran and Zeratul's, though his memories remain that of the deceased Cerebrate that is his namesake.

Woah! I never replied to this?! Eeek! So how did the project go? If at all... and gee, all this stuff looks nice.

It's not really going well, I can't really replace any of the races in StarCraft since I need all three...

I was actually wondering if I could get your permission to use your character as a Forgotten hero. Of course he'll still have the same story. He'll be different from other Forgotten in that he is not a clone and was not made by the Xel'Naga

I've made many maps. Many. Even made an RPGish one.

i created a specie for StarCraft called the Forgotten. They're a Xel'Naga experiment in combining human and protoss DNA. Their build resembles more of humans but they retain a great deal of protoss attributes. Their leader is considered to be Zues, who was cloned from Raynor and Fenix. He leads a group called the Maldukes who are the frontline fighters.

Ah. Reminded me of how freakin' long we have been waiting for a Starcraft 2. x.x Jim Raynor kicks ass, the collapse of the Protoss in civil war was intriguing, and Kerrigan as a Zerg Hybrid rules! ...damn I hate Zerg rushes. o.o;
Anywho, why is the chara human for one? I'd like to know any more info about this chara. Wouldn't know about implementing to a RP scenario (though seeing how flexable you made this chara to be, can be implemented in PKHs) with me, but i'd like to get some info. Also to see how... professional of an RPer you are. n.n; Heh. Acting full of myself? Yep.
All things aside, you do draw humans better than some artists that are affiliated with me. Protoss Hybrid? n.n; Nice pic.

Starcraft:
You, me, and the rest of the universe, buddy. We ALL want SC2 to hurry up and exsist. I highly advise playing and winning SC Ghost though, because knowing Blizzard, it will contain story elements that would otherwise go over our heads in SC2. Like with the background of Thrall never being known because the game featuring that got scrapped, yet Warcraft III has Thrall anyhow.
Tassadar:
Why human? I like humans. Or terrans. Whatever you wanna call 'em. Did you bother going to the link that has the first pic I ever drew of him? His entire background is there.
RP:
How professional of an RPer I am? That kinda sounds silly, but I understand how you feel. I've been RPing for 18 years, 5 of which was online. Owned 3 mucks, have over 50 characters on over 20 mucks, and never been booted (unless I left a place first, which usually meant the place was bad news). That qualify? Anyhow. Off to answer your note...

Mayhaps I will draw him then...if I ever get the time. *sighs* Too much to do...

And now... two years later... I ask you, can you draw him for me? :eyelashes:

Man I love the colors in this one, especially against that black backgroud it really brings out the character.
