No Longer Human

Description

Getting your own limbs hacked away, replace it with the bulkiest cyberwares, so you can escape the abomination that is tied to your soul... albeit it means losing what makes you human.

This is Glory from Shadowrun: Dragonfall. She is the team's combat medic, who is ready to tear enemies apart or patch up her teammates.

Now maybe the first thing you noticed is the huge arms-body-legs misproporsion, and that's *INTENTIONAL*, haha. She was designed that way and I love the distinction.

Among all of your crew in the game, her background story is the most tragic, IMO. And very possible too (that's one quality I love from Dragonfall).
The limbs-hackaway made her losing her soul, numb, and it's really satisfying if you could help her find the human inside her. Harebrained Schemes or HBS - the game dev - made every slightest change of her expression noticeable. I never feel so happy making someone "subtly smiles" like the way I did to Glory. ^_^

To think how persistently nosy I have to be to get that ever-slightly changed expression............

Love this game to bits! :cuddle: And how you drew her, with off proportions and all that. Great job! :thumbsup:

Think of this for a minute: If your character is awakened, you can scan her astral aura pretty much from the beginning. She'll get suspicious and ask you if she's got something in her teeth. If you confirm this to buy some more time, she'll eventually just stick a finger in her mouth to rub it off. YOUCH! :doh:
