Rashima Kerenmosa captured my attention since she was first mentioned. I decided to chose this rather unkown character (I mean, maybe not unknown but not an actual main character) who, to me, is the very description of Baddassery.
"Rashima was born circa 1150 AB, during the Trolloc Wars. She joined the Aes Sedai and was raised to the Green Ajah. In 1251 AB, she became the Amyrlin Seat, the most powerful position on the continent. Whilst all Amyrlins during the Trolloc Wars had been more martial than their peacetime counterparts, Rashima took this to new extremes. She served directly as a general and battle leader, rather than relying on advice from a Warder or general. She fought in person rather than relying on others. Rashima is credited with restoring morale to the faltering Ten Nations after the destruction of Aridhol and Manetheren, with Trolloc armies ranging as far south as Barashta on the Sea of Storms.
Rashima led the defence of Tar Valon when the Trollocs broke into the city and partially razed it circa 1290 AB. She began diplomatic and military overtures that led to a string of major victories for the Ten Nations over the next ten years, most notably at Kaisin Pass, the Sorelle Step, Larapelle and Tel Norwin. Rashima's efforts culminated at the Battle of Maighande in 1301 AB, where the nations achieved a decisive victory over the Trollocs. Although not the final victory - tracking down and destroying all the remaining Trolloc bands would take another fifty years - it broke the back of the Shadowspawn invasion.
Rashima died during the battle, along with her five Warders. Around their bodies a wall of Trolloc and Myrddraal corpses was found, along with the bodies of no fewer than nine Dreadlords."
So, if baddass is what you want, this woman is everything you need. She's considered the very image of what a Green must be. Nine dreadlords and a wall of Trolloc corpses? I just LOVE HER! xD
This is my personal image of the woman. Of course I think I exagerated to give her "Green-ish" and legendary features; fierce, beautiful, wearing amazing clothes. I gave her light blonde hair and golden eyes with tanned skin because I imagine her like a golden statue x'D
PD: A HORSE! I DREW A KSADFKLF HORSE!! I'm so happy, I usually suck at drawing animals xDDD This one looks too delicate thpugh, I wanted to draw a fierce stallion but this one looks more like a mare to me .-.
I love background characters and minor ones, it's always great to see one getting some attention! And the attention you gave her is very good. Nice work, keep it up!
The lines are so clean and crisp it looks like a professional comic book. Her horse looks appropriately terrified of the situation- but I love the set of her jaw and how the shawls just so casual on her!
