“Raistlin – Time’s End” is my new digital painting. In occasion of Raistlin’s birthday, on 17 June 2026, I drew “something” about him as I did in the past years. A personal challenge, a reminder I should draw something for myself. Painted with Photoshop on Wacom Tablet and drawing app on S25 Ultra. Raistlin Majere is a character from the “Dragonlance” books by M. Weis and T. Hickman; this is a work of fanart.
What would Raistlin like for his birthday? Something everyone wishes for, when it’s time to think about it: more time. Raistlin’s character is strongly defined by his struggle for survival, from childhood to adulthood. Again and again, he gritted his teeth and sought more power, sought healing, sought immortality. As I remember those who are no longer with us, I draw Raistlin summoning the sands of time, Lord of the Past and the Present, in his desperate attempt to have more time. But the hourglass is almost empty.

Notes & Trivia
Is this scene from the books?
- Not exactly, though Raistlin is often depicted with an hourglass, being the Lord of the Past and Present, and a time traveler.
- However, there is a moment, at the end of the last book of the Twins Trilogy, when Raistlin faces a terrible scenario: a future of destruction, should he become a god. A god of nothingness.
- “Lord of Nothing,” moreover, is one of the arias from the Russian musical “The Last Test,” which tells this story, and ends in tragedy with this scene. Time is running out, the Lord of Nothing has destroyed everything.
