Day 23: Esclados, Lord of the Storm-Fountain

The otherworldly protector of Broceliande forest, Esclados was accidentally summoned by Sir Calogrenant when he stumbled upon a fountain in a hidden glade. He spilled some of the water from the fountain, causing a storm and drawing the spirit out to defeat him for his impudence.

Many years later, his cousin Sir Ywain travelled to the same fountain, drew out Esclados and destroyed him, taking his place as the guardian of the fountain.

I intended this sketch to be for the Black Knight, brother to the Faerie Knight, but it just refused to look right.  So I made him into a different red and spiky character, and liked it much better!
