Amazon Brawl - Hardcore Edition; new Character

Before I get to the juicy part, a quick update on my schedule. I have finished all basic animations for the new characters (idle, movement, Hit-animations) and I plan to finish all basic and special-attacks sometime in November. I have the first week of November off from work, so hopefully I can get a bit more done in that time.

After that will be the long and tedious process of making the new characters compatible with the existing Grapples and Sex-Animations. I can already see the amount of copying, pasting, aligning and timing ahead of me. It'll surely take some time - but to be honest at the moment I can't really imagine exactly how long. Maybe it won't be so bad. I'll just have to see. But I plan to finish that before the year is over, so when January comes I can start on the new Sex-animations. More on that when the time comes.

For now I want to talk about the second new character I want to add: Fione

There were a few things I had in mind when designing her. I wanted to add a character with a blue color scheme. That wasn't so difficult to achieve. But finding a gimmick for a character that works both as a fighting mechanic as well as a Sex mechanic (and something I haven't used yet) turned out to be more difficult than I thought. Out of the 4 new characters I probably spend the longest time thinking about her role; she changed designs and fighting-styles quite a lot, but eventually I found something that went 'click' and I'm very satisfied with that.

I haven't really settled on her backstory yet, so I'll post that at a later date. For now I'll give you the design and the rundown of her fighting/Sex-style.

Fione fights using the beads that are wrapped around her wrists and ankles. They aren't just some ordinary beads, though. Using ancient magic invented by the Elfs, Fione is able to magically infuse them. They can be used as projectiles and - fused together - as a melee weapon. Their most important function however is their use inside her opponents body. By altering their size and shape Fione can insert them into every orifice of her enemy and assault them from within. This will also include sounding.

Maybe that won't be everybody's cup of tea, but I'm sure a few of you might enjoy that. And it's something new for which I want to try (I did have one sounding animation in Melly I think, but that's a few years back now, so it doesn't count).

Tell me what you think!
