Meet Mel

Posted by amaranth on 04-Nov-2008 (12275 reads)

All of the writing for Aveyond 3 is finished and Shaz and I are about to go into full-force development.

The official title is Aveyond 3: Lord of Twilight and there are seven lead characters. Before you ask, yes Te'ijal and Galahad are back, and both characters are central to Aveyond 3.

We will talk with Te'ijal and Galahad next week (ahem, go along with me here).

In the meantime, I have an exclusive interview with Mel, our leading lady in Aveyond 3.

Interview with Mel

Where are you from?
Harburg... for now.

How old are you?
17 I suspect.

What do you do for a living?
Mmm... Do I have to answer that?

Yes, you do...
Fine! I'm an er... Rat catcher.

Have you ever eaten a rat?
Of course not, that's disgusting! Okay, maybe I tried one once... Dreal dared me.

Who is Dreal?
None of your business!

The Thais Times recently wrote that you are the scion of Mordred Darkthrop, the most wicked sorcerer in 400 years. Is there any truth in that rumor?
The freaky mad man who died 100 years ago? If I were, I wouldn't be chasing rats. Hey, you wouldn't happen to know a way in to his old mansion on the hill would you?

No, sorry. Do you believe in vampires?
Vampires don't exist, everyone knows that.

Mel is SO not like I expected her to be appearance-wise, but now that I see her "in the flesh" I'm sure she'll fit right into her role I can't wait to hear what Te'ijal and Galahad have been up to for the past few hundred years...

And the last part sounds freakily like Galahad for some reason XD Seven lead characters, huh? There are usually eight, but meh. Unless Te'ijal and Galahad count as one, since they're married (jk jk XD). @Heimdall: Amanda did say "leading lady", didn't she?

How can you not love anything or anyone going by the name Twilight. (wink wink) I can't wait for the other interviews! Oh and I love the last answer "Vampires don't exist, every knows that". She's in for a shock.

Think this is what Jack and Vel would say.. And looking forward to the other character's interviews. 'Specialy Te'ijal's and Galahad's~~

Administrator Joined: 2008/1/28 From: Gold: 6742	Re: Meet Mel it doesn't matter who Mel's mother and father are. Vel was an "ancestor" - could be grandmother, great-great-great-great-great grandmother, whatever. IF Mordred Darkthrop was also an ancestor of Mel's, and was the most wicked sorcerer in 400 years, we can probably assume this takes place several hundred years after AV1, which took place sometime after AP. (I'm not basing this on any "inside information" - just what's in the interview; also assuming the most wicked sorcerer BEFORE Darkthrop was Ahriman, who was dealt with in AV1). So there have probably been about a dozen generations or more between Vel and Mel. Don't hurt yourself thinking about it

Amaranthian Joined: 2008/2/19 From: Gold: 633	Re: Meet Mel Maybe Mel is chasing rats cos she hates Mordred Darktrop, denying her origins. We should not bother her , she’s not so feminine for my part. Maybe she is Lord of Twilight for the beautiful view of a day, at the end of the adventure to go to sleep. There are 2 interviews for the moment, isn’t it?

Remember, that it's mentioned a few times on the site that Mel is a thief, which isn't exactly you want random strangers to be aware of. And I'm pretty sure she's aware of her own personality...

Amaranthian Joined: 2008/2/1 From: Gold: 749	Re: Meet Mel I doubt that. I quote "he's probably doing time somewhere". So he's probably dead or had some sort of curse cast on him, again. Either way, it's unlikely that he'll appear in this game. (Amanda mentions that Mel and Te'ijal will be the main characters of this game and the next. Av3, Av4, and Av5 will be a trilogy)

She'll have a shock when she meets Te'ijal. Te'ijal's pretty open to telling people who are dumb enough not to relize she's a vampire that she is one, so ethir Mel's gonna be shocked or think Te'ijal's psyco. Great interveiw.

Amaranthian Joined: 2008/2/1 From: Gold: 749	Re: Meet Mel Er, seeing how he doesn't have a faceset, I'm going with no. How I'm sure, go to this: http://familytrees.genopro.com/aislingyngaio/aveyond/ Aisiling made it with public information, so whatever's public or mentioned in-game regarding the characters, she adds it there. If you want to find the playable characters go check Mel, Edward Pendragon, Lydia Rupert(Not Lidia Perry), Stella(In the 'no surname column'), Te'ijal, Galahad, and Ulf. You'll see what they look like there.
