Rise of Third Power (R3P) is an indie game developed by Stegosoft Games on the RPG Maker engine. During the creation of their first game, Ara Fell, the idea behind R3P was already growing within the creator's mind. When CDS approached them regarding any character design or CG work in 2016, they decided to work with us to develop the character designs of their next game. 

Provided with a bunch of old character design and pixel art (which won't be posted online here), CDS set off to do up modern character designs for them. Due to the distance of time between when we first started and the Kickstarter, the final versions of the character design will differ between what we've delivered and the final ingame version. The character designs shown here are the original ones that was completed back in 2016.

Age: 39

Weapons: Pistol and saber.

Outfit: Pirate coat and tall boots. No hat or eyepatch.

Hair: Brown, medium to long in length. Some facial hair.

Personality: Fought in the Great War years ago. Retired, became an alcoholic, took up piracy to pay the bills. Likely has visible scars. He's often kind of annoyed by what's happening around him. Kind of character that smirks a lot, or makes a rude comment while grinning. Based loosely on Spike from Cowboy Bebop.

Age: 19

Weapons: Dual daggers.

Outfit: The outfit included in the concept art for Corrina is pretty close. She comes from the desert, so she dresses light, and her skin is tan.

Hair: Blond, short and cute.

Personality: Grew up after the war on the streets. Feisty attitude. Short temper, loves adventure. Based loosely on Lina Inverse from Slayers.

Notes: The final version of Corrina within the game has been changed to have a more tan complexion. Her costume also comes with sleeves now.

Age: 17

Weapons: She doesn't fight on her own, but when she's forced to early in the game, she's given a rocket launcher!

Outfit: Begins the game in her royal wedding dress, but is given adventuring gear later.

Hair: Brown. High ponytail.

Personality: Sheltered, stuck up, never been out of the castle. Talks down to people a lot (but it's used in a way that's supposed to be funny, rather than mean). Has a good heart, and eventually comes to like the other members of the party.

Outfit: Similar to this.

Here is the final character designs that was unveiled by Stegosoft. They asked us if they can make edits on their end. Something which we don't really mind since it's their characters! After all, we did the character design one year before. Since then, there might have been changes to the story that require new edits to the original character designs.
