A couple of conceptuals have been posted in the RW gallery. I'm looking for sexy, tough, edgy.
I think maybe a little more indication that she uses magic. Shawn put in a lot of awesome little details that I think are really cool.

Also fat women take up the polygons in the game... which might ruin your experience if its not already ruined by seeing that bulge take up half of your screen... thats just a theory why they don' t put ugly chicks in games. much like movies or even real life ... no one really wants to see them, the world is so filled with them anyhow.

Is it me, or are the breasts too small for a computer game female character? I mean come on!!!

Someone like Thorn's grandmother, from Bone, (I can probably dig up a picture of her if you don't know what I'm talking about), or any other of the "tough granny" types.
There are two reasons why I think such a character would be good. First off, it'd be a break from porn actress body types. They're nice enough, but they tend to get overdone (see every EQ box :P). Second, it would provide some balance - there'll be nasty orcs and stuff runnning around, why can't there be a tough ol' elf sorceress there to kick their arses?
I don't think that all this wonderful young-hot-elf art should be thrown out - after all, we do have a target audience to go after ;) - but it would be nice to have some balance.
Besides, it seems kind of unrealistic that you'd be able to fully master the powers of elven magic before you hit 30... ;)

On the topic of porn stars in game... Why couldn't we get a grandmother type sorceress? Not a fat and nasty grandmother, mind you. Nor burningly sexy. Just a cool one.Someone like Thorn's grandmother, from Bone, (I can probably dig up a picture of her if you don't know what I'm talking about), or any other of the "tough granny" types.

On the other hand Elves are also usually depicted as being creatures OF Magic, not users of it.

Umm... Elves are (in most stories) near immortals. So that elf "maiden" who appears to be in her early 30's could very well have bounced your great-grandfather on her knee.On the other hand Elves are also usually depicted as being creatures OF Magic, not users of it.

If I had a scanner I'd draw one up real fast for you. Basically, the design is of a 30 year old man, with very very few wrinkles, but a short, sharply cut beard with long white hair drawn back into a tail.
The clothing for elves should be one of green cloth, for the most part. Elven races are always depicted as basically humans that dwell amongst nature, not beings that manipulate it perse. Think of a mix between oriental garb and a tunic, all formed together with an existing theme of nature and everyday use.
I really wish I had a scanner...
As far as the female elves, aren't most of them supposed to be blonde? In fact, aren't they supposed to be fair of complextion with long, untarnished blonde hair? Once more, I wish I had a scanner. :(

On the subject of age, I'd like to see a stately, dignified yet built old dude for a male elf. :D If I had a scanner I'd draw one up real fast for you.
