Activity 5: Design characters

1 Alisa (Ice Queen)
Backstory: The setting is in a fantasy world, and she is the queen of the Ice Land.
Personality: A very cold, cool kind of character. She rarely smiles and when she does, it is hard to tell. Part of that reason is because Ice Land is so cold people’s faces freeze.
Special Skill: She can create ice and snow however she wills.





2 Timothy (Drunk)
Backstory: Wanting to get rich quick, he began an alcohol business and spent all his money in investing it. However, his business fails and Timothy was left a penniless drunk man.
Personality: Although he experienced bankruptcy and business failures, he does not learn from his mistakes and keeps on wanting to hit the jackpot quick. He has a short temper and is impatient.
Special Skill: Throwing alcohol bottles




3 Bryson
Background: A warrior to protect the emperor. The setting is in a fantasy type world, which one emperor rules all. Although Bryson is one of the top warriors in the kingdom, he actually despises fighting. He wishes to stop combats but peer pressure is just too strong for him.
Personality: Looks tough but is actually a scardy cat. He likes peace than war, and has a weak heart because he cannot stand up for what he believes. He is more of a background character type individual, and follows the crowd.

Assignment 2: Character Concept Sketch

Character Analysis
Leanne Liu

My friend Katie’s (pseudonym used) character stands out. She is a very cold person, and does not show much emotion. Her smiles are somewhat forced or otherwise, small. Compared to other people, she definitely has a colder air surrounding her, almost like an ice queen. Although she is pretty, she does not smile often so she only has a limited number of friends. She speaks in a smaller, huskier voice than I do, and generally does not talk much. People have a hard time trying to understand what she is thinking because she has a poker face on at all times. Katie is so far the perfect ice queen character I have seen, and her cool personality stands out from people I know.

Don’t Look Back Response
Leanne Liu

1 This game relates back to the Greek story of Orphesus because the basic concept overlap each other. In this game, the main character stands in front of a grave to begin, which is most likely a reference to Orphesus’s dead wife. Then the character moves through a field based on red color, connecting to the underworld in Greek mythology. The biggest connection is the fact the floating woman disappears when the main character turns back. In the Greek story, the wife disappeared after Orphesus looked back.

2 The game developer Terry remixed or modernized the story in his game by giving the main character a gun to fight the spiders, bats, and other monsters he faces along his journey. The original story takes place when guns did not exist, so the battle aspect modernized Terry’s game.
