Many of the Endstone characters are based on actual people.  Sometimes it’s personality, sometimes it’s a look, but I use my friends as sort of “springboards” when I designed some of the Endstone characters.

As a matter of fact, Herrik the Snake is loosely based both in look and personality of a long time friend of mine James Page, who is better known in and around Southern California as blues legend “Whiteboy James.”

If you’re ever in Southern California, especially in the Long Beach area, check him out.  He’s a bit of a rogue, somewhat unpredictable, but all in all a really gracious guy.

His website is here:
