"Sometimes, when a wanderer passes through the fen at night, he hears things. Don´t get me wrong, I usually don´t believe in stuff like this, but the guy who told this story to me is usually pretty reliable. He didn´t only hear things; he also SAW something. A giant creature, cowering in the murky water, hiding behind tree trunks and hollow stumps. He swore to me, this creature was nothing he had ever seen in his life. Its eyes were glowing hauntingly, following his every movement and his massive head looke a bit like that of a Charr, but not quite. Sometimes it seemed to emit a dark growl, but it didn´t attack. It just followed and watched, until my good friend reached the safety of an outpost. He swore to me he would never enter this fen at night again. Now I can also sometimes hear it at night: the scratching of giant fangs, the howling of a beast. I fear that it didn´t like his presence being known." This look was quite a risk for me. I wanted to create something that barely looks like it belongs into the world of Tyria anymore, creating a monster that isn´t even a Charr on first glance. The Fanged Dread Mask was just perfect for that aim and to bring an interesting dye job into the whole look, I chose the Tribal weapons. I always disliked this weapon set, but for this shamanic beast I found them kinda fitting. I just wanted to go out of my comfort zone and create something that is ugly and wild and just different. I was also kind of inspired by the Moonkins from World of Warcraft, especially when it came to the right hair style. I know he has a face only a mother can love, but I hope you also find something intriguing about this look! ^^
