This is Merrow (a NPC). You'll meet him in Act 3 though, but I got it colored today so wanted to show him

A very cheery guy, this Merrow. I can totally see him having a good laugh while his victims walk a plank...
However, the ship in the background... maybe I am taking all this too seriously ... but this is a prime example of mixing various periods: The steering wheel in the bow, inside a glassed room is something which came up somewhere during the industrial revolution. The rest of the ship, and especially the weapons, are in the typical "medivial+magic" fantasy setting, clashing quite heavily.

Ah I didn't know about that. However, since is fantasy I think is fine. In Steampunk fantasy we have steam machines that never existed in our world for example (or variations of those).
Anyway, here's another image from one of the other sidequests:
The group looks like the medieval version of The Green Lantern Corps. o_o

So will even the druid be holding a sword for this part of the story? Also after seeing all theses different outfits I have to ask will we be able to choose the outfit we like best after completing the game once and wear it during at least the side quests.

Those outfits are only a cover for a specific quest

Decided was better to give players some idea of where the party is actually standing in the dungeons

Merrow's spot on! Just as I imagined him myself!
SPOILER ALERT!
Merrow's going to be the love interest of one of the playable characters in the game, but I'm not telling for whom...

Ooh, is it going to be a love triangle with Rowinda and Vaelis?

Why is Althea's insigina on the other side of everyone else's?

Because she's Mirror!Althea from Mirror!verse.

Yes it's awesome indeed It's my favorite character of the 3rd act
Why is Althea's insigina on the other side of everyone else's?
Haha yes I just mirrored horizontally the sprite to add variety, but the image/texture is the same (since is used only in 1 PART of a quest, not worth doing two unique images).

Little confused. Is Shea at the orange arrow or in the room above?
jack1974Jun 19, 2014
In the room, in the game is clear since your own portrait is not clickable/doesn't display any tooltip.

I keep thinking Shea's icon looks like a plastic badge :D
Vote Shea for the protagonist twin! Lower taxes and more quality pelts in your traps!
got another nice background finished, the Gran Mogul palace. Riley's charm seems to be working... (in reality, after that scene he's chased by half the guards )
