Danya - D&D Character Art

Danya, my D&D character for the Curse of Strahd game my brother DMed! It was a very fun game, and I drew this after we finished the campaign.

A few things went into this design-wise. As she's Vistani, I wanted some bright colours/apparel to reflect that, but she also helped defeat Strahd. So I gave her some of the spoils she earned (Strahd's cape, a rat skull dagger), and some silver-dragon themed armour.

She has a backstory involving piracy and theft, so I wanted her to look like a mish-mash of things, but for it to also look like it all belonged to her, too. By pure chance I also gave her a last name that was canonically in the campaign, too, so she ended up with a very strange personal history. Overall, she gave me a lot to work with to create her visually!
