NEW ENEMIES FOR OUR
KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN VIDEO


There's been no update for a while, so I thought I'd showcase some of the lesser bits and pieces I've been doing.



PIRATES OF THE SOUTH FOG
Well, I don't want to give too much away about the scenario or setting in which these guys appear, so let's just leave it at:

"Yes, there are pirates in OMNIS."



JESTEN SPARROW, BEAST MASTER
Again, I'm reluctant to blurt any spoilers, so I'll keep the description to a heavily censored and edited minimum.

One of the finished game's recurring enemies will be a gentleman-wannabe named Jesten. He funds expeditions to the still unexplored and uncharted Erias mainland, taking first pick of any specimens brought back for addition to his private menagerie. Jesten is acts as a kind of middle man between Verdamm city's highs and lows and has a grossly inflated opinion of himself, his abilities, his charms and his value to the underworld. Exhibiting a brand of double-think, Jesten is secretly paranoid and has devoted a great deal of time to training several of his more dangerous specimens to obey his commands.

He's inspired by Mick Radley from William Gibson and Bruce Sterling's "Difference Engine" and Lemuel Pigeon from "Perdido Street Station" by China Mieville.

The Green Thing
Is a twin-tailed green biraptor. Jesten removed its head so that he could neutralise the risk of being bitten by it himself, since its main threat lies in the stingers on the ends of its tails. It is a reptile, but pulsates and oozes like a mollusk.

The Pink and Blueish Wolfman Thing
Is a Tropical Wendigo. Jesten's specimen is as rare as instances of contact with the creature itself. As such very little is known about the species except that they possess a demonstrable degree of strength and resilience - features that make it one of the deadliest members of Jesten's entourage.



CLOSING NOTES

These aren't the only enemies I've designed and enemies aren't the only thing I've been working on. But, for now at least, that's all folks.

Needless to say, everything is an enormous WIP, so lots is subject to change.
