Description
This is a character from the series I'm reading right now, The Wayfarer Redemption. Her name is Faraday and she's one of my favourite characters. And I'm going to explain why (you can skip this if you want):

I've always hated those female characters who always play the role of the poor, pathetic yet tragically beautiful, damsel in distress. The ones that the knight in shining armor always works his ass off to save even though she has zero personality and no strength of will to even lift a finger to save her own ass when she's in mortal peril. An example of this (might get flamed for this but w/e) is Bella from the Twilight series. She's completely useless. All she does is whine and complain and get herself into danger so Edward has to go and save her. Another example: Christine Daae from PoTo. Same goes for her. God I just hate those people who regard themselves as victims of fate and do absolutely nothing to help themselves instead of whining and complaining.

Consequently, I have always loved those female characters who are the total opposite to the kind I explained above. Faraday is a good example. She was betrayed by the man she loved, and yet she still sacrificed herself for him. She knowingly went to her death so that he and his wife could live happily. Now, reborn, she still has the courage and strength of will to help his children with their quests. She accepts that he will never love her and she moved on. I mean, does that not speak volumes about her character? It's soooo much better than sitting around feeling sorry for yourself.

Anyways, sorry for the rant. I really love this picture and I wanted to express a bit about how I feel about it.

Pencil :: 5-6 hrs? :: no references

((fun fact: if this were in colour, her cloak would be red. ))
