This was one of those cases where there wasn't a lot of information on the character I was illustrating, so I've taken some extra liberties.Asbeel is a deserter. His name means deserter or forsaken. Since each of The Watchers have their properties flipped back on them, I wanted to make it feel as though he was himself abandoned. He holds onto a small figure which could represent his hope or his failure that he can't let go of. I want to paint a portrait of a person and a place that has been left to ruin. Hence I've named him, Asbeel, The Angel of Ruin.The crow head is a private metaphor. It's not an association taken from the lore but rather a personal association I have with enforced isolation.
