Description
The Sentinels of Eblon have the most technologically advanced civilization of all of Codorus. They have found a way to crystalize raw mana into a material that rivals the strongest metals.However, the process of creating the material is a bit lengthy, and so these powerful weapons are only given to those who prove to be champions of Eblon.
---
A set of weapons from my original game world, Codorus. Most are self explanitory, but the Gauntlet and Focus band are a bit unique. They act as enhancers and alter the way that other weapons work.
time: ~20 hours over 3-4 days
tools: Photoshop CS5, wacom tablet
notes: updated this from the previous version. Removed the mana rifle completely and redesigned the focus. Snazzier layout and such too.
Edit: changed to wide format. lol I'm so indecisive.

if your oc is anything like mine, then that is the minimum number of weapons to carry at one time

Haha, if your OC has that many weapons it's amazing they don't fall over on their face.

You would be surprised at how resourceful I am when it comes to space and weight. These weapons you have here are very easy to make compact and fit snug within or around clothing.
Infact, there is an old pole hammer and pole axe that I haven't submitted on DA. I will do this soon.

They're used in a lot of fantasy games as a spell-amplifier used in the off-hand weapon slot. It's sort of like a shield or something for a warrior but for a mage.

Wow, this is a beautiful set of weapons, I would definitely choose the compound bow, the daggers or the rod.... Does "mana" come in different colors?
π: 0 β©: 1
It does! Mana can be crystalized into any color but primarily comes in bright hues.

Awesome job! I have one question: What does the 'focus' do? O.o
π: 0 β©: 1
The focus is used by spell casters as a physical element that can channel their magic in different ways.
It can take any shape, a crystal ball, a book, a flower, a ring. It's a pretty common weapon class in video games, sort of the 'shield' for the casters.

These are very well done, especally with the programs used. What are they made of? PS:Also would you mind if i sprited them?
π: 0 β©: 1
It's a material called manashard. It's crystalized magic-force, basically!
Sprited them? You mean recreate them in pixel-art?
π: 0 β©: 1
Sure, absolutely. I'd be interested in seeing them if you do it!

These are still one of my favorites! I have one odd query again though. Does raw mana shard come in different colors? or could it potentially change based on the weilders personality?? Cause that would be amazing ^_^
π: 0 β©: 1
It comes in different colors, yes! Black and blue is the primary color scheme for the Sentinels, so that's what I drew it as, but you could absolutely order a sword in yellow, green, purple, etc! It doesn't change based on personality, but that's an idea for another set.

I would definately want a set in forest green. Likely The great sword and a pair of hand axes for me ^_^

Impressive. However I feel as if you are missing the in-between of dagger and longsword...
π: 0 β©: 1
Hmmm, that's a fair point! Any ideas on what would go in that space? I suppose there could be a seperate "shortsword" skin., maybe something similar to a gladius?
π: 0 β©: 1
That would be up to you. You did a great job so far
