Another @Pixel_Dailies competition is running today. For this competition you must create a dungeon delving hero, the kind that might appear in the roguelike genre of games. Upload your artwork to twitter and tag it with @pixel_dailies and #Hero. Only one entry per person is allowed. The competition ends at 11pm UTC Thursday.
