## Concept / Design Notes

### Backstory

In this tumultuous banquet, become the eternal warrior and trapped beast of the goddess! Veneda's dream will be presented in front of your eyes, why not indulge in this and accept the redemption of pain and injury?

***A coastal town, a Colosseum waiting for warriors***

***Late night visits, fugitives seek asylum***

In the poster, the "psychologist" in the center - the Feathered Cloak stretches out her left hand to welcome the visiting warriors. The illumination of the lights makes her more glorious and holy, and the lord in yellow - Parasitic Shroud stands on the poster on the left side, under the hood, it is difficult to identify the real body. The batter - Seditious Bindings is holding a weapon and sitting on the right side of the poster. His slightly lowered head seems to be planning some big event. Below the poster, the moonlight casts the visitor's shadow on the ground, and it can be vaguely recognized that he is the patient - The Fugitive.

***Standing empty seats, fighting to the death for "glory"***

"Psychologist" - Feathered Cloak wears a gold-and-white tulle skirt, a beautifully embroidered cloak, and a light gray-blue feather shawl that is luxurious; the cloak buckle is inlaid with dazzling diamonds, and the necklace has blue gemstones Echoing the emerald-like eyes, it seems to contain infinite mysteries, making the watchers immersed in it unconsciously, unable to extricate themselves; the golden crown on the top of her head declares her absolute rule over this small coastal city, no matter when the sun rises, It was still after sunset; the waist was full of weapons such as axes and awls. Although the materials were precious and the workmanship was exquisite, they still formed a sharp contrast with the gorgeous clothes. She reserved enough seats for the warriors who came, and under her benevolent punishment or malicious jokes, the warriors would all fight to the death for "glory".

In the character display interface, the "psychologist" - Feathered Cloak descended from the sky holding the holy light in her hands, but after opening her hands, black feathers fluttered, covered with purple awns, and then the phantom of the patient - The Fugitive appeared, interacting intimately with her. During the chase, the azure blue feathers will slowly fall down with her movements.

The banquet begins, and you are invited to sit down! In the arena, fight for the female city lord!

### **Design Idea Plans**

"The defeated king strayed into a mysterious town on his way to escape. He thought he had come to an utopia, but he witnessed an incredible curse after sunset. Unconsciously, he gradually became one of the female city lord's toy..."

The package of the Patient and the "Psychologist"'s essence are inspired by Norse mythology and the legends of Vineta. The story of the essence takes place in the legendary city - Vineta. The people here have been punished by God for their decayed and turbulent lives, and the city has been sunk into the bottom of the sea, appearing once every 100 years. In the story, we hope that the "Psychologist" will play the role of a strong, elegant and powerful woman. The Patient's temperament is weak, but because of his relationship with the "Psychologist", we hope that the two will not only have the temperament that fits the role setting, but also produce the sense of impact and collision in the essence of the story.

"Psychologist" - Feathered Cloak is inspired by the goddess Freyja in the Norse mythology. In the mythology, Freyja wears a long skirt and a feather cloak. She is the god of love, war, and magic. After each war, she takes half of the warriors who died in battle to her palace. The warriors are awakened and will duel at the break of dawn every day. Their wounds will be restored at dusk and and will share the feast prepared by the goddess. Different from the mythology, Feathered Cloak is a goddess with a stronger desire for control and aversion to taste. She puts those who have been addicted to war into endless battles and puts every prey she was interested in her control.

### **Design Idea Sketch**

We took Freyja, the goddess of Norse mythology, as the source of inspiration, and designed the direction of the sketches of the two female lord of the town. These two directions are not in line with the image of the noble and elegant female lord of the town in terms of temperament, but the clothing of the second version will be closer to the setting of the background, so we made an adjustment on its basis.

The second version of the sketch has a significant improvement in her temperament, and her clothes are more elegant, in line with the background setting. So we continue to refine on its basis, enrich the details, enhance the refinement, and finally completed the design of Feathered Cloak.

### **Model Details Description**

1. The female lord of the town has exquisite makeup, and her jade-like eyes seem to contain infinite mysteries. The golden crown above her head symbolizes her absolute rule.
2. The exquisite and luxurious necklace echoes with her emerald-like eyes, and also shows her identity.
3. Her waist is full with weapons made by precious materials and sophisticated craftsmanship.
4. Wearing a gold-white pattern semi-permeable tulle skirt, a cloak with a beautifully embroidered pattern on the outer cover, and a light gray-blue feather shawl that shows her luxury.

### **Showroom Interface Design**

"Psychologist" - Feathered Cloak holds the holy light in her hand and landed from the sky, wearing a long skirt and a feather cloak, with a powerful and elegant aura.

After opening her hands, black feathers flew wildly, shrouded in purple light. This goddess with a strong desire to control, wanted to make every prey that interested her into her control.

The female lord of the town is dressed in gorgeous clothes, and the gems on her necklace are shining with blue light. The golden crown above her head and the whistle she holds in her hand are all symbols of her supreme power in this small coastal city.

Patient - The Fugitive's phantom appeared, interacting closely with her. This is her own warrior, and will become her own trapped beast.

### **Custom Lobby Model Design**

"Psychologist" - Feathered Cloak's hair and shoulders are covered with special effects of the starry sky shining light, and she will emit gray-blue feathers and blue light particles when she walks. If you look closely, there is also a faint light streamer on the crown.

### **Interacting Effect**

The interacting effect Easter egg of Feathered Cloak and The Fugitive will show a rainbow-colored ribbon, inspired by the Rainbow Bridge  (also named Bifrost) in Norse mythology.
