Whee, look’t what I doodled very recently. Crappy job, I know, but at least it means I’m getting a certain feeling about Keth. Which is a very good thing. I should redraw this thing later on, so just putting a quick scan of it here. How I hate drawing in the train, really. Bleah.
I’m less and less tempted to keep the “assassin” idea… I should better go in a completely new direction, cause said direction looks better to me. I’ll still keep the combat thing, but rather going with melee combat rather than ‘marksman’ or ‘sniper’ or whatever. Won’t prevent me from doing assassination jobs if needed in a more or less near future, and it seems more logical, to me, that Keth began learning melee combat at first. Why? Well here’s my way of thinking. I’m still planning on having ehr come from Coruscant… I like the ‘cyberpunk’ feeling it has to it in the first episode, really… and I suppose that on a planet like this, with the Senate, the Empire, all the political stuff that were, is and surely is to be around, law regulation about owning weapons must be quite tight. That’s only a supposition, of course. So, in my mind, it looks much more likely that Keth – as a kid making her ‘first steps’ in an underground, criminal world – has begun to make her way in such a world using what she had under the hand, ie, knifes, shards of glass, whatever. (Shards of glass. That really looks like Raven, now I think of it.) Whatever weapon on which it’s easier to lay hands, when alone and not without many contacts at first, than a blaster or a rifle. Unless no licenses are needed for these, but I can’t extrapolate too much, knowing naught about Coruscant’s laws. Heh.
Besides, I have to admit that the blade-wielding thing has always had my attention, whatever the game or the time. Not the lightsaber thing, but rather the twin-blades wielding stuff. So I may better take what I like and go the brawler way to begin with. Maybe I won’t keep the bounty hunter idea in the end. Maybe I can develop skills in both combat type skills – melee and ranged – and go this way after all. Would be funny to have the whole gang of Lil’ Bros run after people, also. Maybe I’ll have Keth evolve in such a way, once in game, that she’ll become something completely different than what I had planned at first. I’m not sure yet, and it somewhat makes things more interesting.
Hmm. I should now think a little more of her family… of her origins, of the events that made her the way she is now. The criminal way of life sounds well and all for me (heh, adn needing money to spend on jet-bikes… damn, hahaha, I like this idea!), but I still think I could add something more to this. Maybe a parent, or a friend, that would have dragged her into ‘the Underworld’, even if not directly. I need to think about my idea a little more though… it’s not very clear yet, but I sense it growing, more and more, in my little head… Surely I’ll write about it in… not much time. I know myself, huh. I’ll probably change the ‘Hunter’ thing I’ve written here, I’m not sure I can keep it this way, yet I still like the ‘feeling’ it had to it.
An’ it’s more an’ more likely gonna end in Jen-speak ‘gain. Dammit, some peeps are really gonna kill me fer makin’ a helluv’eir lives *winks*
