Xan Telfour (X)-
Xan is a shape shifting Imperial warrior from the Mountain in the clouds. His seemingly colossal stature is somewhat daunting to many folks, yet his personality contradicts his rugged appearance. He is in fact a kind person who will only be aggressive when it is needed. When he is in combat his abilities are unsurpassed by any known earth warrior, for his race are Giants from the Mountain who have been bestowed the power to change form.
He is the son of the late Edimus, an Imperial warrior who fought alongside Ky’s father Baltimus in the battle against The Steamsmith 20 years ago, which claimed both of their lives. This is where common ground is found between the two playable characters early in their meetings.
X’s weapon are his fists; he has mitts the size of a humans skull and a hard head which works just as well. The shape shifting abilities that his race holds flourish later in life, so he is just beginning to learn the true force which his powers can hold. He will begin transforming into smaller beasts like Wolf-kin and Were-rats, yet eventually his morphing abilities will be unlimited allowing him to transfigure into creatures such as Were-bears and War Mammoths.
Xan’s goal was given to him by the Lord of the Clouds. His mission is to recruit a party of 4 warriors, children of the original 4 who ended the reign of The Steamsmith 20 years prior, in an attempt to put a stop his coming a second time. Each party member he gains will aid him in his adventures to recruit the others. Once all are united they will fight as one against The Steamsmith in an attempt to save the Mountain in the Clouds and in turn, the Mid-Lands.
hey dude,
ReplyDeleteNice story and designs. I like the use of the silhouettes and your character exploration, specially on this guy...good job. My only comment would be to watch out for the perspective on both these characters their feet don't seem to match the perspective, making it look like they have one leg shorter than the other. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for stopping by Fernando, nice to see you around :)
ReplyDeleteI can see what your talking about with the feet, its being pushed too far in this design especially.
Ill make some adjustments for the final posts of this character, thanks for the notes, hope to see some more from you on my future posts as well!

**UPDATE**
ReplyDeleteColors have been added!
Ok guys, the skin tight suit idea made it all the way to the end, i really enjoyed that design but in the end run I couldn't use it, just too futuristic for this story.
However my alternate idea turned out even better than expected and coupled with the Lumberjack/woodland inspired colors Im quite happy with the final design.
One thing i'm pondering is the questionable tattoo on the shoulder... I like that it draws visual interest to that area but im not entirely in love with it. Any suggestions in the matter would be very helpful.
ps. Thanks again Fernando, i fixed his leg problem and it feels better overall now.
Looking forward to more comments and suggestions from everyone so feel free!
Thanks guys!

Loving that final design :D the colors are definitely the best out of all you tried :) i dig his boots too
ReplyDeleteI think a sexy lady is in order, considering this blog just got a whole lot manlier :P
lol,
ReplyDeleteThere is a sexy lady in the story, but she doesnt come until later. Shes actually not even in the demo.
Im still going to do her design more than likely, and use it in a video sequence or something during the demo. Probably wont post it till a bit later, but keep an eye out! :D
thx for the comment.
