The former captain of the space guard ship became a pirate after he took possession of the modular time system for his spaceship, which supports travel through the centuries. He defeated many monsters on the way to his only purpose – parts of the lost Holy Grail, which gives its owner the energy of immortality. Few people have seen him, the person is full of legends, some of them say that he collects trophies from every beaten creature, others say that he fought the monster and lost his limbs and some vital organ, but some rumors even told that it’s him who was born by the monster… you decide what to believe 🙂

Requirements:

• The character has its own characteristics, so the clothing design should reflect them and also the lifestyle on a spaceship in outer space. The outfit style must be sci-fi or a sci-fi and fantasy mix. The face shouldn’t be covered.
• Design and color solution should be concise and distinct. Especially suitable for the aesthetics of players aged 18 to 26 (such as students). Try to avoid targeting a younger age. But it should not be designed with heavy RPG equipment.
• The design should be explicit and convenient for 3d modeling as well as promo concept art.

Visual style may vary from stylized (Overwatch, Valorant, etc.) to semi-realism (The Witcher, Diablo, Dishonored, etc). We provided some references for stylization, detail and polishing range level.
