Character time #7: Misfits part 1
I blame my hyperness
My poor mistfis, since I kinda mentioned them before, here is part of my list. Hopefully there will be an opening for some of these.
Kenic:
Kenic is quite an oldie. Orginally part of an even older series (before Element Seeker took it's place), Legends of Beneara. Old stuff, there was so many flaws in it. So eventually I sold the whole story for scrap and rebuild a new one. In fact that was how Element Seeker came to be. Most of the characters came from it in fact, just with some major evolvements. Even the first ES was quite bad. I think that series has been through about 4-5 revamps. Quite a bit when you think about it.
Anyway, Kenic was originally from LOB. When I killed that, I tried giving him an openning in ES, perferrably in the 'main cast' since he was kinda part of it already. He was originally a shapeshifting-enchanter type of person. He didn't have that much character however. But overtime it developed into the "scolar" type of person. In ES though, there wasn't much room for a shapeshifter, so more changes were needed in order to make him fit.
Kenic's background now basically stands at this: For all his life he wanted to be some type of fighter. His parents however were very wealthy and believed that having Kenic learn to fight was unnecessary, not to mention dangerous. So instead Kenic spent all his childhood going to private schools or getting personal lessons on various fundamental things. By the time Kenic could finally do things on his own, it was already too late to do his dream of being a fighter. He was already used to the ways of education to start down a completely different path. Thus he begun to use the knowledge he knows for 'tractical advice', rather than doing actual combat which he hoped for. The rest kinda goes from there.
Kaltia:
A much newer name. This one is a bit more complicated as for being a misfit or not. The name itself is in use, but character that it was originally gonna belong isn't, if that even makes sense. Currently the keeper of this name belongs to a fox girl that I made sometime back, based off of Gaia. She already has an opening in Black Wings, but I still don't find the same so 'fitting'.
The "fox girl" sorta just came to be but not really. I was trying to make a decent avatar on Gaia using the fox ears and tail, without using any kimonos since that has been done over billions of time. So then I slapped some things together and got this. And for some reason since then, I just loved how she looked, then made it into an actual character. Thus creating the "fox girl".
Seeing how Black Wings has mostly half animal people in it, I though it would be a good place for her. The avatar seemed to have had this "dead serious/irritated" look, so I kinda added it to the personality. Actually she kinda reminds me of Izumi from Fullmetal Alchemist characterwise for some reason. Also adding more irony to the fox style, I have not yet seen a serious half-fox character. Or anything with big ears and a fluffy tail for that matter..
Sparr:
Has now been officially added due to sprite problems. If you saw how Sparr looks, you would probably understand why.
Sparr was gonna be the "comic relief" sort of person for Tales of Nargaria (the rpg). He is in fact a Guardian, but one of the very weaker ones, probably the weakest in fact. Not to mention not the most liked by other Guardians. To give some spoilerish-stuff. The Guardians are all trapped in huge pieces of crystal and scattered all across the world. Usually hiding someplace like underground caves. If part of the crystal is broken off, it turns into a "summoning stone" of whatever guardian was inside of it. For some reason though, Sparr's crystal completely thawed out. Making him the only "awakened" Guardian out there. Afterwards he also joins your group, being the only monster-ish looking character you get (unless you also count Ecko I suppose).
However battle animations were gonna be a pain in the ass to make. Let alone a in-game sprite. I still really hope to have him in there. On the count that he would help out, plotwise. But at this point it's coming out as being impossible ;.;..
Sparr is also another oldie, has been with me or a very long time. Strangely though he hasn't changed much
