Priestess of the Blessed Glim

Priestess of the Blessed Glim.

The final character design for my personal project.

Dea is an apprentice priestess of the Blessed Glim. They worship the Blessed Glim as the source of all life.
After they finish the studies, the apprentices are tasked to venture the world on collecting as many maleficent filled souls. Based on their amount they become more powerful.

The finalized idea. Colourful yet strongly with a gothic style fitting my dark fantasy project. 
I wanted to make her stand out from the other character.

The graphic sketches flow from preliminary to finalized idea of a sketch.

Object exploration. 
The knife is used as a sidearm in case her soul is not strong enough to summon.

The lanterns are divided in two:
- The primary one (Right) which she mainly uses it to summon her minions.
- The secondary one (Left) which are considerably small enough to throw as projectiles for the purpose of damaging or immobilizing enemies.

Monster design. 
Candle like minions made from her soul igniting an never ending wax. 
The minions are ranked from smallest to largest based in consumption and strength.
