Though from rp point of view, the spider's legs could break off easily if your really using the staff.
I like the Balzawhatshisname symbol! Nice work!

Newbie question: How do you post a picture that is directly seen at your post?

I like the first staff, but it would be better if it had the red eyes too pureevil.gif

You know, I've always wondered if Viravain and Baalphegar have some king od dark agreement with the spider thing...

The latest design. Artistically, this one's my favourite. Roleplay-wise, I don't like the web there - It's too much like Viravain's symbol, and Verithrax prefers trapdoor spiders. But it was the only believable way of putting the spider inside the crescent without changing the spider's or the crescent's proportions.

I can tell that you were never an Aquamancer or a Geomancer. You are just a general mage.

The staff's nothing like a twisted staff glare.gif

It has gold twisted around it.

And you could have the spider just kind of hovering there, glowing eerily and maybe slowly revolving. Or have it hovering/alive inside a kind of green glass globe

EDIT: Or maybe just have the gold one animated and floating there, waving it's legs about darkness.gif

I deliberately wanted it to be very different from a twisted staff, but it's still a Geomancer staff. If you look at the racial pictures in the website, you'll see all four mages. Aquamancers have staves made of coral, Pyromancers use metal, Aeromancers use crystal, Geomancers use stone (That staff, incidentally, looks nothing like an in-game twisted staff). That staff is made of obsidian (The original idea was just a gloss rod of obsidian) and adorned with gold and rubies to match Veri's colour scheme (He likes black and gold. A lot.)

Additionally, the two staves available now all look like they are given to you by the element. Veri's staff looks like it was made.

I like the second staff best.

But then I like simple.

I liked the glass globe idea... the transparency here may not look quite right.

I love that style and the latest design for the staff is my favorite so far, but it kind of reminds me of some demented candy cane or barber's pole.

Double post, delete me.

doesn't really look like a Geo staff, but it's nice all the same
Unknown2006-09-13 23:56:30
Awesome art... but it's too straight for crazy Geos! tongue.gif

Maybe you could have a cracked globe, or an elongated N shape for the staff?

Very neat artwork Verithrax. smile.gif


(Im sorry if I posted earlier, if I did it was during Art and my teacher was hovering. dry.gif )

Sphere's too big or staff's too thin.

Lose the moon too

Hmmm moon.. Verithrax may be magnagoran, but his heart will always be in Serenwilde. tongue.gif
Diamondais2006-09-14 03:01:43
And Glomdoring too if you count the spider. tongue.gif

Love the Baalphegar symbol. Would like to see Gorgulu's, though you might need to do a hit of PCP beforehand in order to capture the sheer madness of it.
