This image, Soth.gif, is being linked to the Lord Soth and other various articles; 
though the picture is subject to copyright, I (Cynehelm) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

* it is a low resolution copy of the original image. 
* it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell posters and/or other representations of this image in any way. 
* it is cropped, and is in low resolution, thus it is not possible to sell copies of this image. 
* it is used in the article to show Lord Soth, one of the characters in the Dragonlance setting. 
* there are no free versions of this image.

[edit] Licensing

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.
