During the years of work on Fatherdale, many good things have happened to our team: two happy weddings, half a dozen graduations, improved scores in bowling and time records in biking. Above all, we've kept the spirit of adventure alive and kicking, grinning and swearing, binding us together and giving a consistent good mood. The secret is simple and yours for asking: all these months we've been staring at the different images of Fatherdale :). To share it with you and to rise your own cheers, following are some of the finer examples of the desktops made by the team for its internal use. Hope you enjoy the style.
Red Deer. A swamp full of lost hopes and a wind full of sorrow: welcome to the Banned Forest. A place that holds the long-sought answer to Fatherdale's riddle — but will demand a steep price in exchange. A regular party wouldn't find a way through, a hesitating soul would be corrupted... Buriak, son of Master Emin, is one of the few strong enough to enter the grounds. Red Deer, Buriak's bow, is a weapon that can deny the dark whispers of Forest. 1024x768, Deemon's interpretation of a still from episode movie and a detailed render of Michael's bow and quiver. More stills from the Fatherdale movies here.
The Sanctuary. As you travel along the unknown trails of Devil's Forest, you might discover a place where all evil is banned. Here, in the heart of the darkness that slowly closes around Fatherdale, lies an untouched sanctuary to restore your mind and body. A place where you could stay forever — yet a place where you can't stay forever. 1024x768, a still from Deemon's opening movie. More stills from the Fatherdale movies here.
Guardian's Glory. A silver-plated helm and a battle spear bearing the colours of Buriak, a fine Guardian of Kozelsk and one of the best bonus characters you might encounter. Deemon's interpretation of a still from episode movie and a detailed render of Michael's inventory. More items here.
Master Nemir. Nemir is the man of his own, an independent leader you can't plead or threaten. But don't envy — he has his own destiny, and it is grim enough. 1024x768, a detailed sketch from Masha. Read Nemir's bio here.
Wanderlast's Wrath. Wanderlust sword is a blank card, just like its owner Master Nemir. Both hold the power, both travel in uncharted waters, both can bring the long-sought salvation or a death painted in crimson. 1024x768, Deemon's interpretation of a still from episode movie and a detailed render of Michael's sword. Read Nemir's bio here.
Citadel's Call. Crimson Citadel pictured during the Battle with the Unknown when its last call for help summoned all of the Heroes to witness the last moments of struggle and the coming Exodus. 1024x768, a still from Deemon's opening movie. More stills from Fatherdale movies here.
The Gathering. Peroon's Circle, sanctum sanctorum of the Valley. The battlefield for the final encounter where Reinar meets his fate. The face of the Enemy is revealed for all to see. 1024x768, a still from Deemon's opening movie. More stills from the Fatherdale movies here.
Marten Opal'. Marten is not a Guardian. Marten is not a peasant. Marten is not a regular vermin, and hardly a normal mercenary. Marten is Marten — dangerous, unpredictable, cruel and damn lucky. 1024x768, a detailed sketch from Masha. Read Marten's bio here.
