| �I hear they call him �The Con� because he�s an escaped convict from Alcatraz.� �He�s only 10!� �I know! Scary, huh?� �Well, I heard he murdered his parents when he was only four because they wouldn�t buy him a bike for his birthday!� �Would that land you in Alcatraz?� �Not if you�re four!� �That�s not the worst of it, though! I know this guy who knew this girl who was dating this one guy who said that his brother knew a guy named Allen who actually stood up to �The Con�. . .� �. . . And?� ��Con ran his head up the flag pole! No one ever found the body.� �That�s not true! It can�t be!� �Oh yeah? Why don�t you ask �The Con�? Here he comes.� �Oh no! Run!� �Run!� |
| The Con's first appearence "on screen" as intended for her original opening story. Nowadays I would have played up more on the shadows--it's more menacing. ^_^ |
| (Wow! try saying THAT five times fast) |
| Yes I know I misspelled "break" ^_^;; |
| Moving right along. . . |
| You can probably tell by the way she's drawn that she was intended to eventually blossom into a sympathetic character. If she was pure evil she wouldn't be cute. |

| Convict Connie or � The Con� was originally created in 1998 as a Goof Troop fan character (this explains the dog thing), and as one of my avatars. She was unlike any of my other avatars, however, because she was, among other things, a bully. Her initial concept was of a tough, short tempered, fiery red-head who everyone in the school | |||||||||||
| was deathly afraid of and who was originally thought to be a boy and then later found out to be a girl when her hat flies off and her gender-revealing cardinal locks fall out about her face. Throughout that year I wrote a number of short comics with her in them (these were not very good and were drawn during history class when I should have been playing attention to the lecture). I also occasionally role-played as her in our games with the aldahi. Although I originally didn�t think I would like her much, I found her stark contrast to the rest of my crew to be refreshing, and was focusing on her more and more often and slipping her into other story-lines as an extra or cameo ( a sure sign that a character is at least winning author approval). | |||||||||||
