Since my life is just about to get more hectic with school, I may or may not continue with this project. Or I may write his story but not make the character in-forest. I don't really know yet, but now that I think about it, you guys would probably be happier if you saw Quad running around in the Forest instead of some new guy with Blixt's pictogram. But anyway, thanks for all the help and suggestions, I'm not really sure if I'll continue working on this guy or not.
I've just come up with an idea for a new character. I'm planning on writing a long story for his origin but I wanted to post his basics and ask for some help creating him.
The Basics
- The character is a human being who is a master adventurer. He loves the thrill of adventure and has traveled across the world.
- He brings a variety of survival items with him, and uses many things including a machete, a bullwhip, and a set of boomerangs
- I wanted his country of origin to be Australia since he is proficient with boomerangs
- Reformed into a deer in the Endless Forest after his death as a human
The story
While adventuring in the wilderness far from civilization (Haven't decided if this will be a jungle, desert, or another environment), he finds either an ancient temple or ruins. He begins to hear whispering in his ears as he enters and explores the place. He soon finds some strange stones with glowing runes on them.
The whispering in his ear convinces him to destroy these stones, and when he does, an ancient evil rushes out in the form of a hydra. The hydra thanks him for releasing him and begins to escape to take over the world.
The adventurer, now realizing he made a terrible mistake, goes after the hydra, and using his weapons and boomerangs, he tries everything to stop the demon. He chases the hydra to the top of the ruins, and throwing a boomerang, he manages to dislodge something from the hydra. This causes the hydra to vanish, but before he is trapped in the relic/item that was dislodged, he shoves the adventurer off the summit, where he free falls to his death.
He awakes, unsure where he is, and soon learns that the Twin Gods have saved him. He is now a deer, and has the relic with the trapped hydra on him. He must protect it and keep it out of the hands of villains or else the ancient hydra will be released once more.
What I need
- A name for him (Both a human and a deer name)
- A name for the hydra demon he fights. Can be based on a mythological hydra demon or can be an entirely new creature
- The environment he is adventuring in when he runs into the demon
- What sort of relic/item captures the hydra. It would be something the adventurer would have on him while in deer form
- A general idea of what his human form looks like
- Set ideas for him. I'd especially love something that was close to his human appearance, as well as a pair of antlers that could possibly detach and be used as boomerangs
Set Ideas
Please note - I accidentally made #1 and #6 the same set XD
What I've decided so far
-
Pictogram
Thanks for any and all help with this guy, I will write his story very soon.
I'm rather interested in
Sure, if you'd like to give
Thank you for the help XD
Do you have an idea on what
No problem!
I'd say 35-40, he's gotta
It might look a bit silly but
Ah alright XD. Nothing's
For the environment, I keep
I got a few name ideas I can
Waning-Sun - Yeah I keep
MagicHats - Hey thanks, any ideas are great!
Funny, I was thinking the
Mayans, Aztec, Incas,
Nazca....so interesting, but
@quad: Thank you!
.
.
Hey, I have him drawn, but
I really didn't think about
Okay, I have him done, and I
For a relic maybe you could
Quad, I apologize, I was
Please take all the time you
*Quad is a very, very patient person, so no rush at all*
okay *cracks knuckles* let's
- Name for character: Ahim,Mercurius
- Name for hydra: Irdlirvirisissong
- Environment: I'd have to say desert on this one, I think that it would add mystery and it's such a changeable place. A temple idea I found is this.
- Relic/item: I was thinking a necklace sort of thing for easy carrying. Really like this little statue I found on google images and a necklace idea.
-Picto: Idk I'll see what I can find.
- Set Ideas: Well the orca antlers look a lot like boomerangs...
Thanks for the help guys,
I put a bunch of set ideas
I am quite partial to #5. I
I just realized #1 and #6 are
Yeah I thought that #5 was nice too. Still wasn't really sure but I did do these intentionally to use different parts that aren't used as much, i.e. the Noh mask and pelt.
Oh I didn't even notice
But I agree with you. I use the Noh pelt for my OOC deer. But I WILL make a deer someday that uses the Noh ICly.
I like #8
Alrighty so I've currently
Also these of course are not the only options, if someone were to say "What about (pelt), (antlers), and (mask) together?", I will definitely consider it
I personally love five and
here ideas Hydra demon name:
Hydra demon name: Demon mind
Human name: Bill ( i know commn name XD)
Deer name: Demon Fighter
and i like 8 for set idea
well
I really like #5, personally
- What sort of relic/item
A third eye.
- Set ideas for him. I'd especially love something that was close to his human appearance, as well as a pair of antlers that could possibly detach and be used as boomerangs
I like #9. Looks tribal / Aboriginal Australian to me.
Since my life is just about
I'll leave this up with everything we came up with in case I do come back to working on him.
