DnD Character - Nornire Verh D’Endi

Did you guys know that at one point four sisters of the same household were married to the kings of Sicily, Germany, England, and France? Four sisters, queens of most of Europe at the time. The eldest two daughters, especially, were influential in their husband’s courts, and brought peace between France and England among other influences. 

Perhaps the craziest part is that their parents were fairly minor nobles in comparison to their husbands, and not royalty. They WERE major sponsors of the arts, and paid money to troubadours and performers to essentially go to the courts of royalty and sing about how beautiful and talented their daughters were. And it worked!

You’ll find the four sisters on Wikipedia under these names, though different sources may cite them by slightly different names: 

Margaret of Provence (wife of King Louis IX of France)

Eleanor of Provence (wife of King Henry III of England)

Sanchia of Provence (wife of Richard of Cornwall, King of Germany)

Beatrice of Provence (wife of Charles of Anjou, aka King Charles I of Sicily)

Can you imagine the family reunions?

You know what’s some crazy $hit?

This fabulous bitch

She makes a shit ton of poses (like 16,000 or some crazy nonsense).  I used this lovely lady to draw so much as a teen.  Whether it was some nerdy pose for my Mary Sue as fuck OCs

or for full on fight sequences

or for tragic deaths of my OCs in the arms of a totally OOC main protagonist.  

this bitch hooked me up.  

And with the wildest, craziest stuff that you could see in your head but had no way or resources to reasonably draw like

or this

or this

DUDE!  INASNE SHIT!!  So I was using her for a pose reference and decided, you know what, I owe this bitch some cash.  Lemme dole it out for her.  BUT then, I looked and saw she only has 286 fucking patrons!!  This chick gives out free shit and spends countless hours arranging these shoots and setting this stuff up.  

I’ll fork up the cash, SenshiStock.  You’re worth it.  

Check out this amazing woman’s stuff, and get knowledged:  https://www.deviantart.com/senshistock
