Description
It has been a while, but I'm so glad to be back! Life got crazy, and it has taken me a long time to even try to create anything...but I finally finished!
This piece features Blizzard Entertainment's Sylvanas, the Banshee Queen and current leader of the Horde. She's a playable character in a game called "Heroes of the Storm", and I play her often! She's my favorite Blizzard character for so many reasons, and I love her story. The marks on her face are scars from the tears she shed while the Arthas, the Lich King, turned her into a banshee.
"Lady Sylvanas Windrunner, also referred to as "the Dark Lady" and "the Banshee Queen", is the Warchief of the Horde and supreme ruler of the Forsaken, one of the most powerful factions of undead on Azeroth. In life, Sylvanas was the ranger-general of Silvermoon, whose leadership acumen and martial prowess were without equal. During the Third War, she bravely defended Quel'Thalas from a Scourge invasion led by the death knight Arthas Menethil. Ultimately, however, Sylvanas fell in battle. Rather than honor the ranger-general with a quick death, Arthas ripped out her soul and transformed it into a banshee: a cunning and vengeful agent of the Lich King empowered by hate.
When the Lich King's control over his minions weakened, Sylvanas broke away from her tyrannical master's control and reclaimed her body. Vowing to avenge her death, Sylvanas gathered other renegade undead and set out to wage war against the Scourge. Thus it was that the Forsaken came to be, with Sylvanas as their queen. Under Sylvanas' command, the Forsaken joined the Horde and later helped bring about the Lich King's fall in the frozen wastes of Northrend. She seeks a higher purpose for a people who have already died once." - From Sylvanas Windrunner (wiki)
