Maybe some accessory? Like a necklace or a bracelet? :3
Btw, she looks amazing! ![]()

Thanks! Necklace would definitely work for the unarmored version but would be a little difficult to make stand out on the armored version. I thought about bracelet but then realized that the bracelet would kind of get in the way of archery. Plus, we forgot the archery glove!
What about a small design on her armour? It's fabric so it could be embroidered. Any ideas about something small we could add? Also~ please let me know if you'd be interested in buying the OST for Magin? We'll be putting out the main Magin theme in a week or two.

Hmm, maybe something to do with a flower, flower in the hair or a flower pattern on the armour.

Her boots look a bit large and manly to me. Maybe make them a bit more slender and maybe add a small heel? That would definitely make her legs appear more feminine.
Something like this: ![]() Or even this: ![]() More heel = more feminine but also less practical ![]()

. . . I posted a reply HOURS ago! What happened?! ;_;
Anyway... we've had trouble finding a suitable reference for front-view girl boots that are practical and don't have tons of heel. I'd take a picture of mine... but the only ones I have that aren't heeled are rain boots and therefore thicker like the ones in the picture. If you have any idea where to find some front-view boots, please let me know. Thanks for the advice on boots you've already given though, Arggy. How are you doing these days?Mickychi, thanks for your input! A flower in the hair wouldn't be quite practical enough for Alicia... but some kind of flowered design would definitely work for the armor. Should it be on the whole thing or just border the neck and middle?

Doing just fine, thanks!
![]() Here are links to pages for the above boots. They give front, back, and both side views of them, so you can see them from all angles, which might help. http://www.mycolorfashion.com/201008/ ... low-heel-boots-black.html http://www.mycolorfashion.com/201008/ ... mid-heel-boots-black.html I guess the main thing is to not angle out too much when you reach the foot. Just keep it in line with the leg, to maintain an overall slender look.

Where, on the armour maybe across the neckline and one half of the armour, or maybe as trimming edges. Depends what you think will look the best.

Daniel has stepped down from his writing position due to a heavy schedule so we have up to three writing positions available if anyone's interested.
Also, feel free to ask any questions you have about the characters, story, features, etc. ![]()

What does the writer have to do anyway?

Writers help with character profiles and dialog as well as sidequests. They'll also brainstorm with me to develop the actual story. Especially the bits that are caused by character choices.
I'm writing the story first as a linear novel and most bits of it have already been set but the assistant writers will be helping me decide on side storylines that will lead to the alternate endings. Also, writers will be reimbursed for their time. Brent Anderson has joined the team as a spriter and animator!

Alright, we've decided that it'll be best if agas draws Russel and comes back to Alicia afterward with a fresh eye. We'll probably be changing some of the facial structure to make it a bit more feminine. We'll definitely be narrowing the boots some more and trying to embellish the armor a little but there are some concerns about making it too busy. Adding to her bust isn't really practical in an armor sense(and Alicia's all about practicality... she'd bind her breasts closer to keep them more protected were she about to go into battle) so that will be a last resort.
Samy/MetalRenard has finished the main theme and given it the fitting title The Wandering Dream! Finally, please check out my latest blog entry for a more in depth update. I've got some information about the Kickstarter project--which I hope to start the last week of May--as well as a sneak peek at the script! Comments on the blog can be given here or at LS. ![]()

Just letting everyone know that there will be some fairly big changes to the OP in the near future--including the addition of sprites! If you want a sneak peak, check out my latest blog post for a teaser of Blaise's sprite. Already, you can tell a major difference between Magin's sprites and those of the various RM RTPs.
I plan to have our Kickstarter project running by the end of the month so keep an eye out for any announcements regarding that.

Just thought I'd update you guys a little bit. The Kickstarter will be launched on June 1. By that time, we plan to have at least one direction of Blaise's sprite completed and the story/origins sections will be greatly updated that day as well.
In the hopefully near future, the layout of this thread is going to change quite substantially. In order to provide more information without blinding you with a wall of text, I'm going to compile information into image-based text modules. This will, of course, mean that this thread is going to become image heavy... but for those of you who cannot handle a lot of images, legacy-studios.org will still host a primarily text-based run down of the same information. One thing this new layout will allow is the inclusion of character profile pics and sprites within the same area as the character bios. The image section of the character profile .gifs will look a bit like the image below. ![]() . The weird looking areas will be filled in once the artwork for the grown-up version of Blaise is complete. The standing sprite is the real version of the coloring. The rest will all match once Brent is done. I wasn't specific enough about what kind of coloring I wanted at first. ![]() If you want any more updates, feel free to check the latest blogs. There's a sneak peek at Russel's profile picture. ![]() Please ask any questions you have for me or the rest of the team!

I have updated the first page with the "improved" version of the origin/mythology summary; I'll also include it below. A less-condensed version is available in my weekly blog and even more will be revealed in-game via easter eggs(such as books and random NPC conversations) and important cut scenes.
The First Monarchs say that watching the world’s birth was like watching a painting stretch across a canvas without painter or brush. They were born with but not of the world and, as such, were able to witness its birth... and wield gifts of great power. One of these represented the physical embodiment of a door which held close a portal to another world; his name was Coeus. When he died, that door opened and allowed free passage between both worlds. While at first this free passage seemed beneficial to both worlds, the First Monarchs gradually realized it could lead to their world’s destruction. With great sadness, the Monarchs slowly barred passage to different types of people until only humans with open minds, untouched by cynicism and darkness, could pass between the worlds. Fearing that the common folk of their world would turn against them for this limitation and weary of the responsibility, the First Monarchs cast aside their throne and disappeared into the mists of history. Some of their descendents know of their ancestry and bear it with pride... but most descendents were left in the dark of even their parents’ parts in the world’s history.
