Danielle, upload it to TinyPic and then copy and paste. That's how I do it. :)

Could you do my Sidekick??? Please????

Name: Kasumi

Appearance: She is a Asian girl, around age 16. She is around 5 ft tall. Her eyes are brown. Kasumi has long silky black hair down to her waist. It is usually in a fishtail braid. She wears a hot pink short sleeve shirt, and a brown short skirt. Kasumi also wears a large brown shoulder bag. It holds most of Fable's supplies.

Background: Kasumi loves animals (except spiders) because she raised herself in a forest in the place Fable lives after sneaking away from her non loving-grandparents. She came to the place
by boat. She met Fable because of her writing.

Extra Stuff (just in case): Kasumi sells herbs. She was once trapped in a closet for two days. She hates small places,and whenever she is in one, she feels like she can't breathe. She is also terrified
of spiders.
Kasumi wants to stop people from hunting animals.

I hope this is enough description!

Will someone please draw my villain that didn't get picked in Crowd Sorcery? That would be awesome, thanks!

1. Name

Verla Mignon

2. Physical appearance

Curly black hair with purple streaks. Sometimes. Other times, it's entirely purple, and sometimes it's blue and straight and totally cool-looking. And once, when she was a toddler who didn't know what she was doing, her hair was 100,000,000,000,000,000,000 feet long.

Confused? Verla has the power to change the color, shape, and general physical markup of her hair. Usually, she just keeps it plain, brown and short.

Other details: Slim body, about 5'3", often wears a black cloak, black open-toed shoes, no socks, and, when in public, a veil over her face. 17 years old.

3. Background

One day Verla's parents killed her guinea pig because it was dying anyway and could not be cured. She was like six and she didn't understand, and she was so upset that she ran away, far away, before they could explain. Then she killed her parents' friends and her other family to exact revenge, and her parents had her arrested and imprisoned. She escaped the prison and went on the run, and has been on the run since.

When she was about 9 Verla broke into her parents' house after they died of heart failure, and found her mom's diary. After reading it she understood what had happened and why they had killed her beloved pet, and she realized that she had commited such atrocious crimes over something that was really no big deal. She became even more traumatized, and decided to do whatever she could to right her wrongs.

In a way that didn't involve turning herself in and going back to prison, that is. 

4. Lair (Hut? Castle? Cave? Ship?)

Nowhere. She roams from place to place, has no real base anywhere. She does have a case of stuff she carries around with her but that's it.

5. What is the villain’s goal?

Since Verla's insane and really disturbed and all that owing to the incident with the murders and everything, she wants to bring her family back from the dead. Plus her guinea pig. Unfortunately, doing so will require necromancy, which she's going to have to kill a LOT more people in order to do. Pretty much like a whole city of people. And then, not only that, but she'll unavoidably have to raise a million other dead along with her family, which includes some certain... bad people.

But she doesn't care about the consequences, so long as she manages to resurrect her family. 

6. Attitude toward hero

She sees him/her as an obstacle in the way of her goal of bringing her family back to life. And she will do anything to get around them.

7. How is the villain stronger than the hero?

Well, Verla can kill. And she can control her hair. Plus, she knows a lot of dark stuff about dark magic and evil stuff, which she has learned along the quest to get her life back.

8. How is the villain weak or vulnerable?

She's easily offended, and of course easily upset. She will break down at the tiniest thing that doesn't go her way. But when it's a BIG thing she goes totally nuts and will probably kill whoever  is responsible.

She also is unwilling the acknowledge that her goals are not the right way to handle her problems, although deep down inside she knows it. And also, while to many people she seems like a cold-blooded psycho murderer, in her heart she's still just that little six-year-old who loved her guinea pig too much.

Verla Mignon just never grew up! 

9. Why are the main character and the villain in conflict with each other?

The main character doesn't want a whole village of innocent people and a whole world of evil spirits to be brought back from the dead, obviously. While Verla does, of course, and will stop at nothing to do it in order to revive her family... like I already said.

10. Your Crowd Sorcery Sentence(s)

Verla banged on the door agressively.

"I'm sorry, but we're closed!" called the shopkeeper. Verla sighed. Another infernal obstacle. She needed this thing NOW. She opened her bag and pulled out an axe.

A moment later the door was demolished.

The shopkeeper looked furious. "Why, you..." he growled, "you're paying for that, you little twit!" But then when the dust settled, and Verla entered the shop out of the black night outside, his attitude changed.

"Don't hurt me," he said, recognizing Verla. Of course, she thought. It was easy to forget but she was still a legendary and wanted fugitive. "Just take what you want. Please, please, I have children."

"Where's that book about necromancy?" Verla asked.

"What?" said the shopkeeper. "I'm not giving you... !" Then he remembered who he was talking to. "Yes, yes. Of course."

He slowly went to the shelf and pulled out the dusty, dangerous tome.

Verla took it. "Much obliged. But that's not all..."

The shopkeeper looked fearful. "No! Leave please! I gave you what you want! Please, please go!"

Verla stabbed the shopkeeper. He screamed and fell, dead. She cooly wiped the blade on her pants and walked out the door. As she did so, she lifted up her blade and pressed the handle gently, and the man's soul was absorbed.

I'll have my family back soon, she thought. Seven down, about one thousand four hundred and fifty-six more to go.

Or was it one million?

Sorry, I've been gone up north. You should use Tiny Pic. It's really easy. All you do is upload it, and then click on full size image. Once you pull up the image, right click on it, and then paste it in this box. I think Theo uses imgur for her drawings (I see that she posted last, but the post hasn't been moderated yet). Photobucket works too. I hope that helps! :)

I've actually found Wordpress to be the best for this overall, but I don't usually use Wordpress unless the picture I want to post is already in a blog post. Imgur does work very well though (although I've found it looks slightly forbidding and scary, it's not. Or at least not the way I use it). In both Imgur and Wordpress, all you have to do is highlight the picture, copy, and paste it into your chatterbox comment/post or whatever. I don't know if Tinypic works differently, but it sounds like I use a slightly different strategy than Madeline, so I thought I'd give my own input from different sites. But it could be we do it the same. I'm bad at understanding instructions myself!

How was your trip (I'm assuming it was a trip of some sorts) up north, Madeline?

It was really fun, Theo! Thanks for asking. We went to Door County, a popular place for Wisconsinites. And yes, I also use Wordpress for my blog (Imagine it 13 -- look it up! Wink)
