Potential Covers
Potential Cover #1 Opening scene
Tuk, a goblin, hides in another room in the cave while watching four
adventures count 20 pieces of coin after the four have massacred his
parents and tribe. He then sets out on a quest of revenge.
The books main character is a small goblin named Tuk. Tuk has no hair
on his head and is 7 years old. His skin is green. His eyes are twice
the size of a
human’s. The goblin’s nose is flat as if broken. He stands about
knee high.
The first man was a wizard, he wore no armor, but instead a cloak. Tuk
recognized the blue sleeves as the man who had taken his father’s
knife.
The second, a warrior, had his back to Tuk. He was the only one who
wore metal armor. His head was uncovered, the helmet by his feet.
Sweat glazed his head.
The third man was a priest, like the wizard, he only wore a cloak.
But his cloak had holy symbols on it and was spotless not even blood
on it.
Lastly, a redhead with leather armor gave the money out. Tuk knew it
was likely a sneak by the fact he wore lighter armor and had many
small knives sheaved. Light weapons good for quick attacks. Sneaks
hid
while scouting out areas to help their team plan out attacks.
Potential #2 Meeting Ash in the Forest.
Chelsea and Swindle are awakened in the forest by a Nymph named Ash.
She is described as in the story “…under the moonlight a strange
a slender green woman standing over Swindle (who was sleeping). Her
skin had a soft green glow. The woman’s hair was the color of
spinach; her complexion a light green like pond water. She wore a
dress the color of grass it appeared to be made of silk.”
Chelsea (Human) and Swindle (half-orc) both about 16 years old.
Neither are given very much description so you can draw them anyway
you like.
