Traducers Pt 3, Executioner

I still have a lot of work to do with the Corruptor class but I thought I would move onto explaining the Executioners. An Executioner may look very similiar to a Corruptor, they both share the same body characteristics and black attire wrapped with belts but they do have some major differences.

Executioners lack "corrupted arms," the tentacle like hands that spring from their back. Executioners care less for dark magics and rely more on technology.

Executioners also carry a weapon called an Amplifier. Some Amplifiers resemble handguns while others look like massive cannons. Both versions focus Myonic energy out of a special gem called a Rayon.

Because of their agility and stealthiness, they are considered to be the kings top assassins.

Myonic Energies

I would like to share my idea of the effect caused when Myonic energy is used. I still want to focus on the characters, but I feel the energy is as much apart of them as their robes.

Although this picture is still in the early stage, I feel it is becoming more distinct. I want it to have a dark lightning feel. I keep seeing a bright blue glow within the dark matter. Expect to see an update tomorrow.


Art Update:
At this stage, the image is a little more choatic than the usual. Like I said earlier, it was just a way for myself to get the idea out of what Myonic energy will look like. I envisioned a black cloud that moves like flowing water ( those are the faint grey lines). The actual Energy is portrayed as lightning. In the future, as I grasp the concept more, the art will be more refined. When I introde the weapons used by the Executioners, they will be a kick back to the clouds.

As always, I hope everyone enjoys it so far.

The book of the Futures

Daemonican is based around three items called the Demon Relics. Long ago, three wizards locked themselves inside a tower. For Centuries they studied to find a spell of immortality. They cooperated with the same vision until greed, power and selfishness destroyed their friendship. They backstabbed one another, sabotaging each other's attempts at discovering a holy grail until finally they locked their fates and physical being inside seperate tomes. Cursed forever they were sealed inside three books; Pasts, Present and Futures. Still able to speak, their face is spokesman for the very book are fused in.

Inside his depressing Kingdom of East Edingar, King Rejak CI (The One Hundred-First King), sits in misery. He inherited the Tome of Futures, a book that has forever cursed him and his people. The book, much like a fortune seeing ball, allows the viewer to see their future at a gamble. The price, as King Rejak and many Traducers found, twists minds and causes insanity. Some look at this as an advantage and use the book's power to discover new weapons, technology and magic improving their abilities to provide protection to their very giving king.

Traducers Pt. 2,The Corruptor

Corruptors can see deep into their victim's soul, manipulating their darkest thoughts and turing it against them. Corruptors are also masters of using an energy source called Myonic.

Myonic energy takes the shape of many different things. It allows any Corruptor the power to summon a dark cloud that envelopes their prey and surges them with extremely lethal jolts of energy.

Before being twisted into a Traducer, these Royal Guards practiced dark magic. It is believed that the arms growing from their back appeared because of the magic dwelling inside them taking a living form. It takes much discipline for a Corruptor to control them.


Art Update:
Although he's not Corruptor, I did a sketch during lunch today. This is an example of a Executor. They use the same Myonic energy as a Corruptor but they focus it through their technology. I will go over them in a few days.

Progress Continues...

I didn't expect to spend the day looking for a decent slide show program that would work with Web Albums. Sometimes I wish I was a programmer... Ok well not the WHOLE day, I was able to get my Picasa account setup and a few images uploaded. I have more art but I would like to rework them first.

Art Update
I really like the current Traducer I'm working on, going to clean him up and hopefully post it tomorrow. It's a hard transition for me to clean these images, I really like how gritty the original looks.

The Traducer Pt. 1

So far, they are one of my favorite classes and a lot of great ideas have snowballed from their concept.

Basically the Traducer is a Royal guard for the corrupted King Rejak. They exist to protect their king and his treasure. They find sanctity in combining futuristic technology with their own dark powers. Characteristically, they sport lanky bodies (especially their arms), dreaded hair (usually up in a ponytail), robe-like garments wrapped tight by belts, and some glow from gems infused into their bodies.

Their weapons compliment their style very well. I'll post a few weapons in the future, but for now I'll stay focused on the characters.

Daemonican and other Oddities

To keep myself focus on art, I've decided to blog the progress of my ideas for a game called, Daemonican. I hope to upload a few images and add a little more details of the story each night.

Please ignore my poor use of grammar, I'm an illustrator not a writer. Enjoy
