Much like dharklings, Iโ€™ve made another more nefarious aspect of my world, Lord Bledwall (you can learn more about how he arrived at his powers further below). Heโ€™s one of my worldโ€™s Manifest, wizard caste beings who have power far above and beyond what most inhabitants of The Dream Syndicate possess. Heโ€™s an evil wizard figure who has the ability to manipulate these bladed, vine-like growths that accompany him, known as The Bleedwall. The mixed-media poseable art dollโ€™s meant to be imposing, menacing, with his sharp, angular features and withered appearance.

As an adolescent, Iโ€™ve always been fond of the design of villains and I can see much of that fondness echoed in this character. When drawing the mouth of the poseable art dollโ€™s design, I was thinking of the toothy maw of a crocodile. Some more obvious features to jump-out at you would be the look of โ€œThe Lord of the Ringsโ€ ring wraiths (even before the Peter Jacksonโ€™s films, many artistโ€™s renderings of these creatures had much in common) and the look of Shredder from various iterations of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. In much the same way that these villains are encased and adorned in metal, so is the warlord figure of Lord Bledwall. The substance of the Bleedwall that he commands is an ever-expanding, invasive species that will either corrupt, harm, or kill whatever it comes into contact with.

The more the wall hungered
The more that the enemy bled
The more that the enemy bled
The more the wall hungered



Lord Bledwall rules a land that was at war with a neighboring kingdom and he loses his son to the conflict. In his anger and grief, he happens upon a large, strange seed that calls to him. He nurtures it with his hatred and desire for revenge and day by day, month by month, it grows into this bladed and barbed barrier along his lands that comes to be called The Bleedwall.

The wall hungers and attacks friend and foe alike, maiming or killing anyone that comes within itโ€™s lethal, sinuous reach. The Bleedwall ever expands and Lord Bledwall ever becomes concerned with assuaging itโ€™s bottomless hunger. This caused the majority of his kingdomโ€™s subjects to flee and how Lord Bledwall got his name, to be forever associated with that accursed wall.
