Tasha, Tasha, Tasha... She feels like Helen of Troy at the moment, lol. The face that launched a thousand ships.
When I created Tasha, I wanted her to not be all over Atlas like most girls are all over the MC in Harem games. She had always been with Zyair in my mind, so it wasn't hard to do so.
Besides being Atlas' best friend, she also needed to have a significant role in the Realm as I wanted her to be influential. She needed to be more than a pretty face. It was vital for me for her character to have depth. That's why she is in charge of the Terran Special Forces.
She has a life and dreams that don't revolve around Atlas because she's her own person. Tasha wouldn't be the Tasha you know if she were not with Zyair. I understand that many players would probably rather Tasha wasn't with Zyair, but the way I've developed the story and characters in my mind, it's crucial that they are together.
Tasha is sweet and caring to her friends, but she can also act coldly and without mercy if needed. She doesn't know how to compel people without frying their brains because she never really bothered to learn how not to do so. It's a long, tedious process, and her father always told her that it was useless to know.
Her father, Konstantin, is well known in the Realm as "Lucius' Beast". Many view Tasha as sweet despite her role, so it's surprising for them to learn that Lucius' Beast is her father. We will explore this further in Tasha's optional path.
As I briefly noted in the Zyair character post, I had only planned to have Tasha and Zyair in the First Realm. However, Jay loved them so much that he wanted them to have more importance in the whole story. I think that initially, after update 5, we wouldn't have seen them again. Jay petitioned hard to have more of them, and I'm happy that he did. Now Tasha has a whole optional path that will start in Realm 3, where we will learn more about her and her work with the Special Forces. If the game is successful, it will also introduce us to characters that will be in one of the games I plan to release after The Seven Realms… But I have to finish TSR first, lol.
Character Model:
For Tasha's model, I wanted someone short and voluptuous. Someone confident in her sex appeal who knows she's hot without being arrogant. I also wanted her appearance cause opponents to not to take her seriously at first but then regret it when she kicks their asses. I think I managed pretty well.
We will be providing the preview image used for this post to Patrons (Second Realm Supporter and up) as a 4K wallpaper at the end of the month.
Let me know what you think of our girl!
