Knight Commander Grenzel 'Zell' Hellsing - 10 of Swords

This piece has been so much fun to work on. I've learned a lot of new techniques and rekindled my love of illustration with this; I'm very excited to see where things go from here.

I went back and forth on doing a tarot-inspired portrait for my Knight Commander, partially because I didn't want to lean too hard on my gamer roots as a Dragon Age fan, partially because making a Tarot piece feel like it hit the mark is HARD.

Eventually I decided not to go for any one specific style and just let myself feel things out as I went, playing around with texture and composition until I landed on what looked and felt good.

As such, this turned into more than just a 10 of Swords piece, rather something that represents the full suite of Swords as well as the narrative themes that follow this particular character. Betrayal, Loss, and Anxiety paired with Clarity, Inspiration, and Ambition. Meanwhile, hidden in the background are clusters of six arrowheads representing victory within creative problem-solving. They look something like trees among winding riverbeds or nature trails- a reminder of his nomadic lifestyle and formative times in the River Kingdoms.

The scarlet halo suffused with blue light, and the blue cloth stained with blood, represent the constantly warring nature of his ancestries as a Dhampir and a Celestial. Heaven's light draws him, but also burns him, as represented by Lariel's flaming blade. Desna's butterflies remind his desire for freedom and secretly dreamy, romantic nature.

I hope you enjoy this piece as much as I do! Now to find somewhere I can get this printed onto a blanket or something.

THERE’S SOME FAMILIARITY IN THE TALE THAT SHE WEAVES. It hits close to home. Two people — both of full of hope and promise and life — on the dangerous road of adventure? Oh, he knows it all too well. He smiles to himself. To walk alongside Rama on her young rambles? This lucky lady — whoever she is — didn’t stand a chance.

But the story takes a dangerous turn all too soon. Wyll’s expression turns somber as he hears Rama’s tone shift, and he watches her with brows furrowed in concern. Corruption. Betrayal. A knife in the back by the one you love? “Rama, I — ” He’s at a loss for words. “I am so sorry.” Not enough; not enough. He can’t believe it. But — he can.

You don’t rove the Storm Coast for years without seeing your fair share of cruelty. What the lure of power can do to someone…Wyll shakes his head. He should know. Just look at his horns.

“Whatever she gained when she made her choice — ” the words pour from his mouth before he can stop them, impassioned and incensed “ — it can’t have been worth it.” He says this with dead certainty. His jaw clenches; his fingers curl themselves into a fit. He feels his blood rise, hell-hot, in his veins. It’s violent, this urge to protect. Magic bubbles at the back of his throat, black and biting. Unleash me, it whispers. Unleash me, unleash me, unleash me.

Protect her.

Wyll leashes his magic and pulls it to heel. His one good eye finds Rama. There is still violence dancing somewhere, but it’s tempered, now. Controlled. “It must be difficult, travelling with a group as fresh and tenuous as this after such an…event.” It is for him, and he’s only ever willingly stabbed himself in the front. “I hope you know I have your back, Rama. No matter what comes.”  

THE WEIGHT OF CONFESSION LIFTS FROM HER CHEST. Such a deeply held secret has not been spoken aloud since the bloody separation itself.

Yet, the wine loosens her tongue, enough for it to slip out without pause, without question.

It is known, now, at least by Wyll - though of those she has come to know in this adventure, it is the Blade of Frontiers she trusts most. Honorable and dependable, despite it all.

Golden brown eyes look around them, almost desperate for another goblet of wine, but when she doesn't locate a bottle, her hands collapse together in her lap, linking calloused fingers together. She senses too that Wyll is surprised by her off-hand remark; in the very least, she is too.

"Well, you've got me talking now," Rama utters a low chortle beneath her breath, shaking her head. Oh wine, her worst enemy. "We were young and full of a mettle unmatched, on simultaneous paths of righteous justice and love," A sigh escapes the paladin, heavy in the cool night air.

"We married, in secret... I expected to walk the realm with her unto the grave." Her lips purse together, watching the moonlight shimmer and the waves ripple in the river. "But..." Another pregnant pause comes as Rama considers her words carefully. "She was weak to corruption... and chose a path unbeknownst to me until she stabbed me in the back..."

A beat.

"...literally."

Terror for the wip ask game? :D

She ignores the absolute terror wrenching it’s way through her as they walk through the doors, and sets her expression firmly to one of cold indifference.
