Rain day – A window into my world

yet another picture day; it’s been raining, and there isn’t much to see out there. At least, I’m not terribly inspired to see it. Still, there are interesting things happening in my brain – As most of you know, I play a game called Dungeons and dragons; I’ve mentioned it before. Now, whne you’re making a character for this, It’s like makinga chracter for a book – You have to know who they are, what they look like, what they’re personality is like: you need to try and turn some statistics and numbers into a person that may be quite unlike yourself.

Luca Black comes from a part of Korvosa called the Shingles. Here, the rooftops are a world of their own, and the little folk reign. Luca was born in the neighbouring country Vasaria, but his parents died when they fought for the freedom of his family against slave traders. He traveled around for a bit, having left his family behind, and happened onto Korvosa, where he quickly turned his impressive intellect and natural speed and dexterity to a life of modest crime.

The building above is where he stays most of the time, in the top floor apartment with a wizened Gnome, an ex mage of the Academe (The local school of arcane magic). Turpin has been teaching Luca enough to get him started down the great road of magic, hoping that the young halfling will amount to more than a petty (if somewhat dashing) thief.

I’ll post a pic of luca when it’s done

PS – I just realized it really looks like there are power-lines in the back. O well..
