A new incarnation of the Eternal Champion

Apparently, there is a film project out there based on Elric of Melnibone, only the greatest fantasy antihero of all time. If it's still on, then they couldn't find a better White Wolf than supermodel Perish. He is the contemporary version of the Kinslayer. Just look at him:

BTW...if you've never read anything in the Elric saga, the obvious place to start is--Elric: The Stealer of Souls, Chronicles of the Last Emperor of Melnibone: Volume 1...Elric is dark fantasy at its darkest. Full of decadent horror, Elric is explicitly beyond good and evil. Created by anarchist Michael Moorcock, the multiverse of Elric is dominated by the eternal war between Law and Chaos. Moorcock even invented the infamous symbol of Chaos so ubiquitous now:

BTW2...all the pics of Perish are from Shrine of Hollywood. A bit goth-in-a-box. A more glammy version of Goth fashion stalwarts Lip Service. But still...some darkly wonderful pieces and spooky beautiful fabrics.
