Why does she look so different? You may ask. That's because this is her Jak2 incarnation, meaning she's two years older and now 16 >:3 I had to change a few things, as living in Haven definately changes people. For one thing, teh Tera's got an attitude now XD Comes from having to deal with Torn for one and a half years, I guess, since she works for the Underground now XD
The colouring of the main picture took FOREVER @___@ I worked really hard, getting all the colours to look right, doing all the shadows very carefully, working with the hair (two tone hair is a pain in the arse to CG properly) AND I actually managed to make the metal stuffs look like... well, metal! Thank the lord for teh reference pics, as teh Cass would die without 'em @__@. And even in her older form Tera is a ton of fun to draw. I donno why, she just is owo.
The colour key is more for my own reference then anything else, but I figured it'd be a good idea to put it on there XD Though I had to do it a bit differently because the way I did Tera's first character sheet wouldn't fit owo But this works well, I figure, because I know EXACTLY where each colour goes.
In regards to teh Tera herself, she's no longer the aodrably helpless, awkward kid from back in Sandover. No way >:3 Living in Haven, yah have to be tough, y'know? Oh sure, for like six months or something she refused to change or give up hope that either a)it was all a dream, or b)that she and Daxter would be able to find the others and head on back to Sandover. Luckily Tess found the girl not a week after she got there and took her in, otherwise the poor thing'd have been lost D=.
BAH no more spoilers XO All me gonna say is that she only got into the underground due to a certain special ability of hers... and now she's stronger! Yah, shutting up now... *cough*

Aw, he wants you to die. How sweet.]]>Character Sheet: Tera by HellCat666urn:uuid:330c3127-3a06-b0d3-f89d-5c430f4c34502006-12-30T17:41:59-08:00Well, her basic profile is on the picture, so I guess I don't really have to describe Tera herself to much. I will state this; I made her lanky/gangly and slim because I didn't want people to think she is a mary sue. I see waaaaay to many Mary sues out there in the Jak ficton, and I wanted my own character to be one who would fit in with the original characters of the series and who would not (ever) steal the spot light away from the main characters, aka Jak and Daxter themselves.
Also, I wanted to go for a different look. I usually draw fairly good looking girls, but this time, even though the characters cute in that awkward kind of way, she's not over-bearingly gorgeous or talented or anything. Tera can fight (kind of), but she's easy to dodge and block because she's pretty weak. She's fourteen! No normal fourteen year old is overly powerful (that I'm aware of...). Anyways, I have a whole fanfiction series in mind, almost a rewrite of the games with Tera in them. This is her design for the original Jak and Daxter game. I'll post up the designs of her for the other games once I actually start writing the fic and play the other games (I'm about halfway done Jak2 currently)
Just a bit of extra info on Tera, she was adopted by Samos when she was a baby, so she's never known her true parents. She's a very shy person, and she's terrified of lurkers because of an incident when she was very young. Tera can, for whatever reason, absorb small amounts of blue eco and use them the same as Jak can, but don't let her anywhere near a blue vent because it could and would easily make her pass out. Growing up with Jak, Daxter and Keira, Tera has a strong friendship with the boys but doesn't get along with Kiera much (conflicting personalities). She has a bit of a crush on Jak, but hasn't really done anything about it because she know's he's into Kiera.
I refuse to make Tera do anything a mary sue would do; they bug me and I see them way to often. I just want to have fun writing this and hopefully I won't get my head bitten off by rabid Jak fangirls in the process. That's all from me.
