Man’s head has turned slightly to HIS right, not quite directly towards the left side of the frame but enough to indicate something there has attracted mild interest in some way.
From stage left a very small being, no more than two feet high (in scale), has started to enter the frame.
Figure appears as follows: covered from “head” to “toe” in a long black garment; a cowl covering the “head” and draping down slightly from its apex but appearing held in place by something, and very neatly so. However nothing is visible under the cowl except for a pool of pure blackness, absolute and complete with the exception of two purple eyes that seem to glow slightly in an otherworldly fashion. The placement of the eyes indicates they may be attached to a “head” (and the relative distance from the top of the cowl indicates the same) of some sort, but nothing else is visible in that regard. The garment itself trails down from the cowl to the very top of the path: the appearance indicates the being may be either walking or floating, it’s impossible to determine. The fabric appears old, almost ancient, but is undamaged. The garment comes out from the bottom of the cowl in the front at a very slight angle, maintaining that until it reaches the same point as in the back; again suggesting a physical form may be there though none can be seen. The appearance is clearly supernatural but so tiny and with such cute big purple eyes that the effect is more “awwww” than fear.
Figure is holding a very real-looking scythe: appearance is of an extremely miniature version of what WOULD be, if much larger, a rather dangerous (and sharp) looking weapon. As it is, the relative size of it makes it rather underwhelming. How the scythe is being held is unclear: its appearance originates from the section of the garment where sleeves would be (and are drawn, again in the fashion of possibly containing a physical form), but the base of the weapon disappears into the sleeves near where “hands” might be, without showing whether they exist one way or the other.
There is a certain ominous air about the figure in all drawn aspects; the vast majority does not look “cute” in and of itself, but the size of the figure and the weapon it wields (as well as the purple eyes, which seem quite neutral, not sinister) combine to form a rather odd picture…unusual to say the least.
