EVIL GODDESS ENEMY SPRITE? (NES)

I suppose a little more detail would be helpful, huh? Haha. For the "Hard" version of Heroes of Tsufana I want to give the game an alternate final boss that will be available in that version only. It's going to be the Goddess of Darkness that most of the villainous characters/bosses are preaching about when you encounter them. In the original her resurrection is prevented, but I thought it'd be neat to have her as a boss in this version.

So it would be a side-view monster sprite that I'd be looking for. The style wouldn't matter TOO much as long as it wasn't too cartoony. I'm using (used) FF II and III monster sprites for the game. Since she's never given a description nor have I ever really had one in mind her appearance can be, well, ANYTHING! So long as the player can tell its female.

While I do certainly appreciate the effort, it's a little less detailed than I'd hoped for. Perhaps if it had more gradients or tones? Just a suggestion! Though I will keep it in mind as a potential graphic should no more come forward. Don't take it too personally, as I initially intended (and still do) for someone to simply recommend a sprite from some obscure NES game I'd overlooked or haven't heard of before. All original submissions are greatly appreciated regardless however.

Sorry, I left out most of the specifics because I thought people were just going to throw random NES sprites at me until I saw one that I'd settle on! Hahahaha.

It probably doesn't NEED more colors, but it couldn't hurt to try it out if you really want to. Or maybe do more with the colors that are already there? But for now it's just not something I'd be looking for in regards to original designs. Sorry!

As for size, the Cloud of Darkness is as big as you're really going to go using 2K3.


As for design, color, etc. I'd never really thought about it before because there character was never present (and was never supposed to be). But for some general information:

The Lispens used to look towards this otherworldly figure because she came to them with unsurpassed knowledge of all things in their mortal world. It's because of her guidance that they were able to attain a level of technology never before DREAMED of. They even erected a gargantuan fortress in her honor and had it ascend into the heavens so that they may be closer to her. But it's because of this blind devotion that their civilization fell apart and soon became next to extinct.

It is eventually revealed that the "Goddess" had planned to use the Lispens to break her through to their world, but they died off before she was able to see this plan through to fruition.

So essentially she's not really a "Goddess" at all, but just an otherworldly creature that had been manipulating a race of humans that had convinced themselves that she was some heavenly guide/protector.

Think eldritch abomination with horns, tentacles, etc. but having a few features that denotes some kind of female qualities. Maybe in a face poked in their somewhere? Breasts? Bunch of smaller women poking out of its stomach? Just a thought. As for coloring... I'd go with Greens, Reds, Purples, Oranges, and stuff like that. Something dark and alien/demonic. Have "her" be more of a THING than a person. Make us think THIS is what they were worshiping?!

Those are my thoughts, anyway. Very spontaneous. =B

I'll give it a shot, sure! But if anyone knows of an existing sprite that might also sorta-kinda match what I'm looking for that'd be cool too, bros. =P

Oh, awesome! Well then if THAT'S the case I'm eager to see what you present! Considering what you've shown you're able to do, I'm pretty excited =D
