Hey there I'd like for someone to draw my Aasimar Zealot Barbarian who is largely inspired by North African, and middle eastern culture.

A bit about him, he's a former street rat criminal turned holy warrior who still struggles with his past life, especially around things like his drug addiction, issues with authority, and anger issues. TLDR he's still a punk at heart and nothing can change that.

He wears clothes and armor that cover up most of his body, due to him hiding old gang tattoos, however some parts, like around his neckline the ink still peaks through.

His main weapon is a Kilij that he pairs with a shield, though he also has a bident he uses like a throwing spear or javelin. His armor is largely inspired by an Islamic/ottoman/persian style, though I like the idea of some cloth wrappings around his waist and adorning his armor that are more reminiscent of the sort of patterns you see in traditional african fabrics.

He wears a little bit of jewelry, mainly just some beads and hair cuffs in his dreads, as well as earrings. Gold is his go to metal both due to religious reasons, and cause it matches his eyes color.

If there's anything I missed or anything else you need to know about him, let me know and I'll happily answer!

Thank you for reading and considering drawing my character!

The missus and I have been watching a decent bit of anime together at night after putting our little one to bed, and it's honestly been super fun and a great way to bond. We recently got Crunchyroll premium and to make the most of it, I wanna make sure the shows we watch make her smile. (We have some other platforms to watch anime on like Netflix, so while I'd prefer the show be on Crunchyroll just to get our money's worth, her smile is the most important thing so it doesn't have to be on Crunchyroll)

I've been keeping note of the shows that have caught her attention and interest the most, and they mainly seem to be romantic comedies with strong, driven female leads. Outside of that she also likes supernatural stories a lot too, but ultimately romance is her preferred genre. Talking with her about it I know she also doesn't like things like miscommunication tropes (which is probably her most hated trope), will they won't they romance, or an over abundance of love interests.

So far of what we've watched, she's liked
