THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING EVERYONE! STAY TUNED FOR THE PIERS ANTHONY XANTH CONTEST!!!!!



Incarnations of Immortality is the name of a seven-book fantasy series by Piers Anthony. The books are each focused upon one of seven supernatural "offices" (Death, Time, Fate, War, Nature, Good and Evil) in a fictional reality and history parallel to ours, with the exception that society has advanced both magic and modern technology. The series covers the adventures and struggles of a group of humans, called "Incarnations", who hold these supernatural positions for a certain time.

For overview of each of the books in this series, check out Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incarnations_of_Immortality


Contest Guidelines
Draw any of the Incarnations, including but not limited to, Death, Time, Fate, War, Nature, Good, Evil... some other Incarnations mentioned in the series are Nox (night) and Chaos, as well as some lesser incarnations such as Pestilence and Plague. 
You may make them in society's traditional idea of these characters or give them your own special look, modernize them, etc. For instance, if you wanted to put a sci-fi twist rather than fantasy or mythological feel, that would be acceptable.
You do not have to draw scenes or specific characters dealing with the Piers Anthony series. His books were merely an inspiration for me to start this contest. You certainly do not need to have read any of the books to understand the theme or participate. Though, I certainly recommend them as great books!

16. [*Midori*] Fate. Fate is sometimes cruel I think it's because she can't see what she's doing through that veil ^-^ lol

2005-10-19 [Sir. Robert]: Well...i'm good at math...thats why i'm so behind in it (I know I can make it up)

2005-10-19 [Elwyne]: good. I'm not bad at math, but school ruined my math skills and I get headaches when I look at too many numbers. Yup, I'm a cuckoo!!!

2005-10-19 [Nightfall]: I thought the rules said we didn't have to personify the people in the book, but merely personify the *idea* of death, fate, good, evil, etc...

2005-10-19 [Elwyne]: Oh? Sorry didn't know that.

2005-10-19 [Skydancer]: I think though, if I manage to get time to do one, that I would like to try and get as close to the book in an interpretation as I could, just because. :)

2005-10-19 [Sir. Robert]: I'm hoping my entry will look more like a drawing rather than a photomanipulation...I have had a lot of fun turning myself into death :P

2005-10-19 [Elwyne]: lol, uh oh, can't wait to see that one.

2005-10-19 [Sir. Robert]: Actually It is looking a lot better than I would have ever expected...almost deathlike

2005-10-19 [Elwyne]: skullish?

2005-10-20 [Sir. Robert]: Yea...quite....."skullish"

2005-10-20 [Elwyne]: interesting.

2005-10-20 [Elwyne]: ooh, that's you? Doesn't look at all like a human. Skelington! Welcome Thanatos!

2005-10-20 [Sir. Robert]: Whoa...that was a bit of work...now time to actually do my homework ><

2005-10-20 [Elwyne]: good luck on that!

2005-10-20 [Sir. Robert]: ...If anyone gets the time to comment on my picture it would be great if they could tell me what looks so wrong....Something is missing or out of place and I cant figure it out :]

2005-10-20 [Nightfall]: more shading on the finger bones?

2005-10-20 [Aegiss]: I think everything looks quiet.. great:)

2005-10-20 [Elwyne]: Is the skull supposed to look like it's trying to glow?

2005-10-20 [Sir. Robert]: I think i'll darken all of the bone in the picture...I really dont want it glowing like that

2005-10-20 [Aegiss]: Why?

2005-10-20 [Elwyne]: It's not the bone part that makes it look like it's glowing, it's the white haze that leaks into the black parts like inside the eye sockets, plus the line between them is white instead of slightly darker to reflect the darkness. Does that make any sense? Just trying to help, anyway.
