Description

Name: Lyreai
Age: 60
Sex: Female
Race: Bosmer
Occupation: Archer. Wanderer.
Sign: The Lady
Alignment: Chaotic, Neutral

Personality:
Impulsive and quick to change through multiple subjects Lyreai can best be described as "All over the place" She believes in simpler ideologies and any structure that is deemed too complex to her she feels is unneeded. In her limited experiences outside of Valenwood she has quickly began to distrust the nobility viewing them as not having the right to "stomp over the people" Yet views 'honor' and 'justice' as nothing more than funny words choosing to act on thing merely because 'she feels like it' She is very fond of humor and practical jokes and is usually one to be a good sport about it though some might view her humor differently.

Most things amuse her yet it is things that 'cage her in' that scare her the most always knowing freedom in her years the thought of living without it scare her. She is also wary of magic though to a degree an enchantress herself she while practicing magics seems to be more reluctant to use those skills preferring to use her bow instead.

Lyreai also shows a distaste to being called short, though while her sister gets angry over those comments Lyreai gets frustrated and usually tries to justify her height.

Backstory:
Having lived in a remote village in Valenwood for her whole life, Lyreai has hardly any experience with the word other than where she comes from. Yet she always loved the idea of venturing to new lands.. She often got in trouble for venturing outside the village and perhaps farther out than that. Yet she always enjoyed a life of freedom. She came and went as she pleased and was often a wild child growing up. She does however spend alot of time with her sister: Sylni. The both of them having going out on adventures many times. However when a ship docked in a nearby port they of course wanted to check it out, they were forbidden by the villages tree thane. Ignoring that they went aboard the ship and stowed into a crate however this ended up getting them stuck and they weren't able to get out until they docked in Vulkhel Guard. They are now trapped in a strange new land of which they have no knowledge of. Joining a mercenary company she and her sister started fulfilling contracts to earn the money needed to get home. Though this lead to them learning more about the outside world, it was not pleasant. The more contracts they did the more distasteful they became leading them to leave the company and leading them and some who left with them to form their own company.

An interesting character you have here, however there's a few things that I think you could improve on. The lineart personally looks a little rough and the shading could do with a bit of work (there's not really enough of it). On the bow in particular, it looks like you forgot to erase the part of the leg lineart where the leg lines meet the bow lines, which makes the bow look like it's translucent when I assume it's supposed to be solid.

But  think work on your form and shading a little, and you could have yourself some very nice art. If you'd like an art book recommendation to help you work on the things I've pointed out, I recommend reading "Digital Manga" by Ben Krefta. It's full of useful tips and tutorials and pretty much taught me my current style of digital art.

Hope you don't mind the critique on this too much, and keep up with the drawing :)
