Naja
Naja is a cross between a Kell and farmgirl, with a new texture map
to make her a spectacled cobra woman. This model has found its way into
the Abstraction siegelet, among others.
The real Spectacled Cobra (naja naja) has
two linked rings on the back of its hood, like on hers, and two dark spots
on the front. I decided she would use her markings as a lure for the unwary
male.
The intent was to make her playable as a character in the base DS game (Single- and multi-player). Of course she can't equip boots, and I don't want to do all the helmets, so I'll not let her equip those. Armour may be plate only, as she already wears scale!
I ended up making all the armor for her, as it proved too much
effort to write a skrit to select the armour, and to compensate for the
lack of the lesser varieties. You can now
download a dsres and try her out
for yourself.
When Legends of Aranna came out, it added two new armour meshes, and a
few new helmets. While Naja does not wear the helms, she does need a
dummy mesh to accomodate the process of attempting to equip one and rejecting
it, so there was quite a lot of extra work to do. I took the opportunity
to add some alternate skins at the same time as the other changes.
Thessic armor. This is the most gaudy of the new a8 armours.
The new alloy plates. Utraean and Chitterscrag armours are the same mesh
with different textures.
The tan skin variant. Grey and green ones are shown elsewhere on this page.
