Thank you! His name is Adrian, he’s got a sister too, I’ll see if I can get her pic as well
Are they from a manga you're reading or something similar?
Nope, just art I found. But I’ve been roleplaying them a lot, I love them.

**MISC** Theme Song: This, like before, for they vibe and not necessarily the lyrics. But also like before, the lyrics are still awesome, especially the bit about a one track mind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JloUN9j9cJ8
Alrighty. And I do agree with Yondor it's a neat pfp.
Wondering if you had the idea for the characters and then sought out art. Or if it was the other way around. (I know one person's art of some halflings ended up inspiring an idea for a halfling paladin in me.)
Thank you :)
The original idea for the characters wasn't influenced by the art, ie them being siblings, their personalities, backstory, etc. But I did find the art early on, and it did inspire things like their hobbies, jobs, and even their demeanours slightly.
I don't know much about your characters Vitus, do you have any that you particularly like/are proud of?
Neat to hear about your inspiration process.
For me, not too much on my characters. In terms of the ones I have linked,
Belolonandalogalo Malololomologalo Tumagalokumagalo is the first character I made. (I did play 2 other characters back in ~2015 but they were for people that weren't there and the group didn't last long.) For Bel I was like "I want magic. OMG the Aarakocra can fly. And the ranger looks like a cool class to use with a bow." His backstory is basically that he was raised by humans as an adopted son in a nomadic tribe. And then met up with the party for... reasons... (We the players weren't exactly on-the-ball with knowing what we wanted to do when we started the campaign; especially considering we all showed up to Session 1 thinking someone else was going to be the DM). Haven't RPed him in a while since I've had other players controlling while I DM currently. (We swap off now and then with each of us worldbuilding different parts of our by-the-seat-of-our-pants homebrew world.) But he's been one of the steadier good influences in the party. (We've got a Chaotic Evil cleric, Chaotic Neutral rogue, and True Neutral warlock. Whereas Bel is more Neutral Good. [At least I think he's Good.])
Roger Gathakanathi is in a campaign that's all combat. So while there is some roleplay added, not much needed for motivations. But he's the "surprisingly identical brother with the same stats and class" of Peter Gathakanathi and was on the run after being framed for a murder he didn't commit (oh no, who framed Roger Rabbit Harengon?) and followed his brother's quest after Peter died. He's the adopted son of Garagas Gathakanathi Jr, son of Garagas Gathakanathi, both goliaths. (Yes, I repurposed the name from Golden Son. It's just a name that comes to me when I think of running a Goliath.) And my plan is to just keep thinking of how each new character, despite being totally different races and classes, are all related to each other to keep the Gathakanathi surname going.
Fiselius vondus Yaralogus was initially conceived as a bard with a friendly grandpa-personality willing to talk off anyone's ears with stories about the children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren. But in his current iteration he's just a father looking to make some money for his family.
Hello, my name is KoboldNerd, you killed my father, prepare to die.
Look, I was only 25 XP shy of Level 5 and he was in the dungeon. One thing led to another and suddenly I'm casting scorching ray because I really wanted to be able to cast fireball when we finally faced the dragon. If it's any consolation the trap he laid ended up almost causing a TPK so it's not like it was in vain.
(And as I type this my screensaver slideshow is currently showing a red dragon on a mountain.)

They’re all awesome! Seat of your pants home brew worlds are crazy but fun, I miss rping with Garagas but super glad you found another place for him, and Fiselius is epic too! Thanks for sharing :)
