So, here I am, preparing for my latest and greatest Shadowrun campaign, writing a program to kit out some NPCs and making others from scratch by hand, flipping through the source material for inspiration, when I notice something.
Orcs, humans, and elves of both genders are featured heavily in art. Less so Orc females. For dwarves and trolls, however, whenever they show up, they tend to be male. I was curious, and not doing much, so I actively went hunting through my source books. In my old SRComp ( I know, I know, SR3 ) there was a dwarf sub-type that was portrayed as female. Nothing else, though. Not a -thing-. Now, this was something of a quick scan after the first few books because my curiosity was waning and my desire to finish my NPCs was growing, but I didn't find any female troll or dwarf pictures. Which begs the question. What -does- a female troll or dwarf look like? I know the Shadowrun art is just that - art - and I'm free to let my mind make up whatever pictures it wants to, same as my players, but I do wonder. Is there any 'official' art whatosever in this vein? Also, if anyone has some that's uploadable or easy to access via the internets, that'd be great. I have no art skill of my own whatsoever, and I find having a picture to go along with my NPCs to be very helpful. |
