Heikue Reference Sheet

Description

Badly overdue design/reference update for a character I've been using since 2008. 

Heikue (pronounced "Haiku"- her mother was a notoriously bad speller) is a free-spirited dragon who happens to be unfortunately afflicted with a poetry curse. Everything she tries to say tends to come out in verse of some sort- usually rhyme if she's speaking off the cuff, or haiku or tanka if she's got the time to think it through. 

Needless to say, this has made her life rather more difficult than it ought to be. Have you ever tried working as a waitress and having to recite the daily specials in rhyme? That job didn't last long, especially once the chef put duck a l'orange on the menu. The fact that she's got a temper and a strong right cross certainly didn't help, either. 

In spite of the poetic speech and pretty figure, she's a pretty rough and wild gal. She loves motorcycles and the outdoors, is occasionally a petty thief, and is constantly looking for a get-rich-quick scheme. Usually she ends up expending a lot of energy for less reward than she would get if, y'know, she actually tried to get a career. 

Lately she's been working at a casino, watching way too many heist films, and trying to figure out if she can train her teleporting tabby cat (not shown here) to break into the vault. Somehow, I don't think this cunning plan is going to work... 

(If you're going to draw her, PLEASE note that this is only clothes-less to show her markings. I can provide outfit ideas upon request.)
