Some time ago Aurik mentioned that he wanted to draw some WoW characters and asked for volunteers; I sent him some screenshots of Hulan as I have often bemoaned the fact that I have never seen any artwork of female Dwarves. Today he has posted the results of his labours and I am absolutely bowled over by the result!

I don’t quite know what I expected; I think a sort of “drawn” representation of how Hulan looks on my screen. Instead Aurik has drawn Hulan more the way I see her in my head. In Hulan’s original story I described her as lightly built (for a Dwarf), so much so that she wasn’t strong enough to wear mail armour and unable to fulfil her initial ambition of training as a Paladin. As she was small and nimble she decided to train as a hunter instead. When I play Hulan she’s a bit cheeky, even lippy sometimes, and always more than ready for a pint or ten. I think Aurik has captured her perfectly and I am absolutely delighted with the result! All I can say is “Thank you Aurik”. I’ve had a miserable week (IRL) and this has bucked me up more than you could know *blows Aurik a kiss*
