Description
Character Concept Art for a video game design called Book of Shadows. These are the mentors that help the player as well as teach him or her spellcasting. The player's character is chosen among The Coven . What remained unselected became sub-bosses during the player's story/adventure.

For awhile there was some promise this game may be made, but it wasn't to be. So I thought I'd share, as I've always liked the Frank Milleresk (is this a word?) style I used when I created these. This was done because it fit the dark-diggity-darkness mood of the design, and the images had to be black & white as they were to be put in a design document that had to be reprinted (cheaply) many many times. Anyway, who knows what the future may bring, the game may still get a chance after all!

For those curious:
Book of Shadows: Before being plucked from the night streets, you knew nothing of enchantments, charms, and hexes, but all that will change. Your eyes and mind will open to a world with no boundaries and wondrous possibilities, but first you must be freed from the clutches and schemes of a spell-wielding megalomaniac. Lucky for you, help comes in the form of an elderly Vodou Bòkò and his talking cat.

Book of Shadows is a third person 3D fast-action open-ended gaming experience in a world of guns and urban violence, however the most destructive weapon you will have available to you a unique real-time magick system that uses use a number of vocal chants and physical gestures to shape this force in various combinations to form hundreds of spell effects.

You will discover there is virtually nothing you cannot do, and your command of these abilities will be tested against demonic creatures, witch hunters, and other spellcasters of different world mythoi who seek your demise.

"Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law."
- Aleister Crowley, Liber AL vel Legis.
