Iris Havengard Current Progress - B-Run - 09-20-2016 Meet Iris. - "Hello" Iris was our community-created character from the 15th-Man Project. And she was unfinished. But that's okay, because we are bringing her back to lead out the Full Roster Hack! This is where she stands so far: Concept: 15th-Man Project Wrote:The Implacable Experiment Bakcstory: 15th-Man Project Wrote:The Betrayed Young Citizen Design: 15th-Man Project Wrote: Ability (Fuse): 15th-Man Project Wrote:She would "Fuse" with an esper. I guess it could be with the equipped one, or within a list of 6-8. The esper could appear behind her, like with sketch. Thereafter, a second battle menu appear, like with "control", and she use ability related to the esper, not necessarily the spells she gives. Like Gau, she would gain status ailment and elemental resistances of the esper. Part of her pallette could change depending on the esper with a custom status ailment. However, before we get cracking on this, there are some things to discuss... namely, is this the exact starting point we want to use for her? We have this opportunity to redo or revamp a part of the character before moving on, so we need to address that now before moving forward. What are you thoughts/impressions of the character? Should one or more things be tweaked/changed outright? I will say that the ability, as it's described here, turned out to be mostly unfeasible, which was part of the reason the project stalled last time. As much as I'd love to make a brand new ability with all the bells and whistles listed here... it was a little too large a scope, with many many too many options. I think at least this will need to be tweaked if not changed entirely. But I want to hear from you guys. So vote above! Happy Hacking! RE: Iris Havengard Current Progress - FF6_Lover - 09-20-2016 I like that Sprite and Potrait, if you did it great job , but if someone else did it, still good job man, I'd love to see her with her history, abilitie and stuff........ RE: Iris Havengard Current Progress - Lockirby2 - 09-20-2016 I like the concept and design as they are, and don't really want them changed. I feel like I have a pretty strong mental image of who Iris is supposed to be, and changing that now isn't something I want to do. If we change her design, I think it should absolutely not be changed to be more attractive in any way. I feel that this is rather core to her character. I'm a lot more open to changing her ability though. The original ability was perhaps a bit too ambitious, which probably came out of the fact that the brainstorming session and subsequent vote did not attempt to limit the abilities to something that could be implemented within reason. I voted for both modifying and creating a brand new ability, since I'm not really sure what should be done with it (perhaps nothing, if somebody actually thinks they can do all that).

The Iris sprite and portrait were done by Sutebenukun who used to be an admin for the site.

I agree about her character, I got sort of attached. Here's a thread we had for discussion for her that is an interesting read: https://www.ff6hacking.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=2363. Once we are ready to move forward, I might move that thread over here or make a new one. RE: Iris Havengard Current Progress - madsiur - 09-20-2016 I voted to leave her as she is. The only complain I had in 2013 was that her ability was too complex to code but if it's doable now or a variant of it is possible then it's all good. We must not get discouraged and drop this because we aim too high. RE: Iris Havengard Current Progress - JWhiteLXXXIX - 09-20-2016 itd be cool if you could add an alternate sprite for walking right due to her asymmetrically that's my only gripe RE: Iris Havengard Current Progress - FF6Fanatic - 09-20-2016 Glad to see this project starting to roll once again. I'm of the same mind as LK on this, I enjoy her design a lot, and the backstory offers plenty of interesting possibilities. The character itself is great, but I'd change her ability though. I was kinda undecided between "brand new ability" and "change her ability" options, but voted for the latter. I think before we scrap Fuse we should try to rework it, at least. RE: Iris Havengard Current Progress - m06 - 09-21-2016 So Iris inspired me to write a song: http://picosong.com/TS9X/ I like her story and look. I hope you like the song (the recording starts a little late).

Sounds tragic, which makes sense with Iris' character. Nice work. RE: Iris Havengard Current Progress - B-Run - 09-23-2016 I'm seeing a lot of support for altering the ability. Let's talk ideas. With the idea of "fusing" herself to an esper... what's something we could do that wouldn't be quite so over-the-top? |
