Charlotte

Charlotte was a player character in my campaign many years ago (yes, I do the DnD thing). The player passed away quite suddenly many years ago. The bracers aren't for deflecting bullets, though, they are bracers of protection.

Growing up, I had a strong crush on Lynda Carter. I also did the comic collecting. When I immerse myself in a subject, whether it's writing or drawing, I tend to be influenced by it -- at least for awhile. I try to put a few days between reading the works of others and when I do my own writing because of that.

However, the player who ran Charlotte made the association with Wonder Woman without my input and played up on it, even embracing the similarity. When Caernach, her husband, was captured by his father and imprisoned, Charlotte and her co-wife Shara raised the army, called in their allies and stormed the city of Altanis. Charlotte at the time liked wearing a white shirt tied at the bust, white hot pants, white cowboy hat, and riding her white charger into battle. What an image! Shara wore more conservative attire, but remained beside Charlotte all through the fight. A tough battle, with a lot of ambushes and bitter street fighting. That's a tale I hope I have time to write.

nice work, but reminds me too much of Wonder Woman.
