[KS Update] Morning Update – September 19th 2013

Today’s “mid-stream” update is brought to you from my couch, since my reliably, unreliable back has decided to repay me for working in a twisty little passage attempting to fix some video equipment in the house. As such, this update is centered on one thing, and one thing only Vasili, the introduction of the first “To be a…” tale for Camelot Unchained™. Like our race concepts, this class is not set in stone and it serves to introduce a possible class for our game and to spur discussion on our forums regarding it. We intend to unveil more class concepts during the next two years than the game may launch with (depending on stretch goals of course), so today we start down that path.

Today’s class is the HelBound™ and as the word Hel would suggest, they are a Viking class. Members of this class have sworn allegiance to the “Greater Power” Hel and they would fill the role of a “healer” class for the Viking Realm. However, as the story lays out, they are much more interesting than just a plain ole healer. Oh, and as to what a Greater Power is and how Hel fits into our world, you’ll just have to read the story to find out. There are lots of dangling bits/hints (and a few participles too I’m sure) and we’re not going to fill in all the blanks just yet. We’ve got lots of nice shiny new concept art as well, including some cool looking weapon concepts to go along with this class concept. You’ll also notice that we’ve included some basic armor concepts for the class as well. As always, these are all very early and rough concepts; especially factoring in how much our artists accomplished in a little more than a week!

Lots more text and concept art in the update, clicky clicky.

Loving the concept and the artwork!
