The Librarian
The Librarian by @prisspen (Priscilla Spencer)

The Librarian. Highly influenced by drawings by artist-God Paul Kidby. From a scene in "Guards! Guards!" (from Terry Pratchett's Discworld series), where the Librarian tries to make Carrot understand that the theft of a book is worse than murder. Carrot remains out of the picture, as I've been having trouble drawing him ever since I found out he was nearly 16 in "Guards! Guards!", which rather upsets my mental image. I have a version in my sketchlog with Carrot in the picture, but it's so frightening that I have trouble looking at it without fleeing in terror.

The book titles are really amusing, so if you want to be able to read them, check out the high-res, larger version here. Joke references range from "Maskerade" to "Interesting Times" to "Men at Arms" to "The Fifth Elephant". Muaha. The first person to understand all the titles gets cookie points.
