Memorie
I've been slacking off a bit, due to the lack of motivation to continue. I haven't given up this project, but I did attempt to get Emil.... kind of finished, for a field sprite. I dunno. I probably should've used CharGen Extended for the base, then the Game Character Hub (Portfolio Edition) for any pieces not in CharGen Extended, then do the touch ups with Paint.Net. But here's what I did for now.

The direction that she's facing in this preview image needs a bit more work. It looks like the topmost part, which is her shirt part, is higher than it should be. I'll probably move that down a pixel or two to make sure it fits more.. I was also thinking of adding glasses to the sprite, but I didn't want to. She does wear glasses in present day, so if I manage to make an image that features Emil, she'll be wearing glasses. Eventually, I'm gonna make a copy of the finished version of Emil's sprite and add a little object on her left hand that'll resemble a device she uses, as I mentioned in her little character bio a few posts back. For now, I am gonna focus on fixing the sprite a bit.
In other things, I thought I'd make a bit of information of about a few races, which was kind of inspired by Bounty Hunter Lani's Tidbits about Summons and Summoners for Destiny of End.
Magi
Normally, they look like your typical fantasy elf. Magi can utilize their own Mana to cast magic. Usually, they hide in woodland villages away from the prying eyes of the other races, even from their halfling counterparts, however it's known that a few Magi did marry someone of a different race. The magi are known for being very agile, and magically efficient in combat. Sadly, they aren't that strong of a race in terms of physical strength. As for their lifespan, a Magi can live up to about 500 to 600 years. That's quite a long time. In Memorie, there is one Magi, named Ovelia, that Emil meets in the side story, that helps out for one part or two, but she never goes into combat. Ovelia is traveling around the world for something, but I'm not gonna spoil that. Her motives will be revealed in the side story.
Half Magi/Halfling Magi
Normally cast aside, the Halfling Magi are actually pretty powerful depending on the other half. The most common Halfling Magi are ones that are half human. The halfling has half of a lifespan of a normal Magi, and their growth is as that of their other half of their race, but the aging will slow down when they are about 15-16 years of age. Like Magi, they can use their own Mana to use magic. However, this comes at a cost. Using too much of ones' mana can result in a very deep sleep to recover the mana they used up, some individuals called this deep sleep "Mana Deprivation". It's possible to delay the Deprive, but only for a little. Using Mana Potions can recover from Mana Deprivation very quickly, or the natural way would be to let them rest until they wake up themselves. The Half Magi are pretty durable, and they are almost practically immortal, excluding some things, like dying of old age. If a Halfling gets killed off, before dying of old age, Their bodies unconsciously react by creating a Remnant, which will be covered after this race, the halfling also hides to prevent further damage while the dead body is not only getting repaired by some mysterious force, but also to revive as soon as their wounds heal. Once the Remnant returns to the revived halfling, the halfling regains consciousness, and continues their life, as if they weren't ever killed. Though they might be wondering how they got to where they woke up. They also have a kind of "Super Saiyan" form as well. This is called Mezeme..... because I couldn't think of a different name. Their hair doesn't go straight up like a Super Saiyan though, and the visual is a bit different too. Visually, they are cloaked in a glowing aura. There are many colors that indicate how their Mezeme form was awakened. For example: Blue meaning that they had experienced sadness to their breaking point, or they lost someone very dear to them. Other than that, the Human/Magi Halflings are stronger than the other halflings, and the original races they are half of. They also get the benefits of both race halves. Kita, Akiko's (adopted) younger sister, is a halfling (Magi/Human). However, for this game's sake, she won't go into Mana Deprivation.
Remnant
Remnants are pretty much a "temporary body" of a Halfling Magi. Upon first created, they have amnesia, and they start to remember the reviving halfling they were created from over time. They can use magic like Magi, and they don't have any kind of special transformation or form. Their appearence also differs from the halfling they were created from.... with magic. Usually this difference in appearence is a change in hair, the hair color, or both. Eyebrows count as hair, but they remain the same look as the reviving halfling. The Remnant also has the same gender, body type, and face as the halfing they were created from. Depending on how the remnant is treated, they could be their own person. When they remember everything, they have to choose to go back to their, now fully recovered, halfling, or continue their own life. Normally they choose to return to the fully recovered halfling. The Remnant has no lifespan, but they can die, thus also preventing their reviving halfling from being fully revived. If the halfling they returned to gets killed again, they don't get amnesia the second time around, and will go about their life until the halfling is ready to continue again. So yeah, it's kind of like having a second life, or something.
Alright, I made this way too long. So I'm going to end the post here.
