JerekKruger Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Not a big fan of Ydwin's portrait still, but I agree that she's not really anime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Mord Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 At least it finally ended the whole anime debate I don't think so. Of course she is not painted in anime style, but she still looks like an anime character in my opinion. Like Kabutos long lost sister painted Harry Potter style. If the red haired guy is Rekke, I'm disappointed. I imagined something more ... unusual. I even like Ydwins portrait better, to be honest. The captain women looks interesting, but as I said many times before: I miss the freaks. 1 --- We're all doomed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
algroth Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 For Rekke I guess I was expecting something a bit more Queequeg-like, someone whose appearance also denoted the foreignness of his culture. If you told me the above portrait was for an Aedyran I wouldn't have thought otherwise. 1 My Twitch channel: https://www.twitch.tv/alephg Currently playing: Roadwarden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enoch Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Bonteru and Radora have gone the way of Cadegund. Rune-head is "Konstanten" and the sneery lady is "Fessina" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
injurai Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Bonteru and Radora have gone the way of Cadegund. Rune-head is "Konstanten" and the sneery lady is "Fessina" That's curious, because Konstanten and Fessina were the two that both surprised me most design wise compared to what I had imagined based on the original descriptions. Do their descriptions still hold though, or is a more elaborate character change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least it finally ended the whole anime debate Oh please, the original image was completely anime, as someone else here said, she was the spitting image of Yakushi Kabuto and Lezard Valeth!

rjshae Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Oh sure, kill off the only Dwarven companion. I don't suppose Konstanten is dwarven?

Sannom Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 You say that like I should know who those people are It's so that you google them up and ask yourself "Wait, aren't those two dudes?" But seriously, if anyone's a fan of either property (Naruto for Yakushi Kabuto, Valkyria Chronicles for Lezard Valeth), I really don't think the similarities with the first sketch of Ydwin are going to be lost on them.

smjjames Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 He didn't get killed off, just renamed. Also, Ydwin looks pretty serious in that art. For the stormfolk having reddish hair, I guess they decided to do something a bit different from the standard asian look. Anyhoo, looks like crew can get pretty seriously injured https://twitter.com/jesawyer?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor gonna take almost two months to recover properly. Also, if the crewmember were female, wouldn't 'helmsman' be 'helmswoman'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wormerine Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 He didn't get killed off, just renamed. Well, not really: Josh twitter: these sidekicks are, in order from the first tweet: konstanten, ydwin, rekke, and fessina. bonteru and radora are dust in the wind. #rip It seems like theses are new characters. Whenever they have anything in common with first draft remains to be seen. Well, not really: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever they have anything in common with first draft remains to be seen. Well, not really: It's entirely possible that they reworked the two sidekicks. There's already a few rogues, so, I can get them deciding to change that one. Radora seemed like a rather shallow character just from the description, so, they'd have to flesh out that character.

Karkarov Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 I know Ydwin can be one, and I thought Eder could possibly choose rogue? That's correct. Eder can be a fighter or a rogue (which still makes no sense to me). Ydwin can be a cipher or a rogue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eder can be a fighter or a rogue (which still makes no sense to me). Ydwin can be a cipher or a rogue. Well a fighter-rogue is a "swashbuckler", which to me isn't a bad fit to Edér's persona. But stats-wise, he seems a less than optimal build for that role. I guess he's a swashtanker... "It has just been discovered that research causes cancer in rats."
