As some of you may recall, I am a fan of the world of the Intergalactic Truckstop, a comic created by Chaz-GELF, and I have created three fan characters set in that world; Jasper, Saar and Enigma.
Well...I have more.
Some
time ago, I was wondering about a group that could exist in the ITS
world, and I started to come up with ideas and concepts that could be
fun to play around with, so here are some concept sketches for two more
characters.
Firstly, there is Captain Adam Nebula, the human
captain of the cruiser 'Atlantis'; mysterious cruiser that no one seems
to know anything about. He is part of a four-person team that would like
to call themselves mercenaries, but are pretty much a group that is
willing to do almost anything to make money, whether it's hauling cargo
or such. This means most of the time they're glorified cargo movers, but
have taken the occasional dangerous mission.
Again, good practice at drawing humans, and I never developed a proper bald character before, so it was good practice.
Nebula is kind of an interesting character; back in the day when I
started to use the internet and started role-playing I didn't really
develop Dorgan or Bahamut, so I came up with the character name
'Christopher Nebula' for a sci-fi based character. Since Adam shares a
lot of similarities, I decided to give him the Nebula name as well, kind
of letting the name live on.
Next up is K'Ral, the Quargon gunman and weapons expert of the team.
K'Ral has been friends with Nebula since the beginning of their
space-faring adventures, a Quargon that is very familiar with all manner
of weapons (I kinda of think of him as the 'Garrus' of the group in a
way). He has stayed with Nebula when they started up their business and
has stuck with him through thick and thing. He loves getting a chance to
tinker with the team's gear, but spends a good amount of his time with
his own gear of the weapons on the ships. (Mmm...calibrations.)
It
seems that when I come up with sci-fi themed teams, I always have one
weapon's expert, and he's always a reptilian of some kind, so it was
very appropriate for K'Ral to follow the same. He is based off another
character of mine that worked off the original Nebula concept, so this
really just works hand in hand.
