Okay as stated in my journal, I would work on my RPG artwork some more...
So I decided to work out a few designs for a special race, the Pakoh (just like the plural of ninja is ninja, the plural of Pakoh is Pakoh). They're sort of a midget folk which isn't growing any taller then +- 1 metre, but have a lifespan which twice as long as a human's, and always retain a youthful look (they never seem older than 40).
They're sort of a forest folk who live secluded, but with the new rise of unspeakable evil (dun dun duuun!), they decide to unite with the Union (grouping of various different races such as the humans and the elves) to protect their beloved kingdom; so they may live up to their duty as the Servitors of the Forest.
Only a few Pakoh have ventured out into the unknown world beyond the forest so far, but with the newformed Union and open boundaries, many of the Pakoh begin to travel out into this new world. This also provides a new income with the sale of exclusive spices and items only to be found on Pakoh ground...
Though, the Pakoh are not allowed to venture out into the forest until they come of age, which is, as humans, 18 years. Before that, they are considered as Novices, allowed to study the various kinds of jobs and become specialized in one of them.
Pakoh do not possess a well-rounded physical strength, but with their small build, they remain a swift and agile opponent which makes them good thieves and assassins. Their commitment to Gaia also gives them a great magical advantage, the source of their very nature... Bows are also commonly used, but they will remain limited to hand-crossbows and light bows...
Now the image itself! The first image is a Pakoh Novice. See how small his hands are? They cannot carry heavy swords at all!
The star on the top of his head resembles the period of the day he was born. Stars are for during the night, a sun resembles during the day. The moment of their birth is important, for it affects their eyesight... Night-Pakoh have a great sight during the night, but they need sun-glasses during the day, OR special sunblocking contacts.. Likewise for Day-Pakoh, they need night-vision goggles during the night.. OR again, contacts..... Though, most of them would sleep during the night...
The one at the bottom is one of the Warrior class. It requires a lot of guts and determination to become a Pakoh Warrior, but it strengthens their bond with Gaia, and allows them to tap Gaia's energy into their physical being, making them nearly as powerful as a human warrior...
Phew, I talk alot ^_^;; I will make new Pakoh soon!
PAKOH PAKOH PAKOH!
Great design, it's like Daxter meets Link! love the expression designs and the entire Pakoh concept (i can see like a tribal song being sung with "Pakoh Pakoh" in it lol that's a funny name)
Oh wow! That's got to be the cutest character ever I love the outfit and weapon on the warrior.. It's all so well planned out Very beautiful. Instant +fav
The whole Pakoh race looks like that I'm gonna finish the pencil draft of the "Advanced Class" for Pakoh Warrior soon, so check the other ones as well in the meanwhile.. if you feel like it
