Gothic London: Oisín Moore

The 'Gothic London' project is a game design project I'm working on. It features a steampunk Victorian London that has been taken over by an alien fungus that effects medium and small sized mammals. The fungus arrived on an asteroid that crashed into London.

Affected creatures act like 'zombies' and will eventually evolve into a less recognisable, adapted version of the fungus.

Humans have had to adapt to survive the onslaught of flesh eating zombie mammals. This means being inventive and creative in finding means to protect ones self.

This character was a tailor. He carries a satchel full of his old equipment, a tape measure slung over his shoulder that he could use as a lasso to pull enemies in closer, and a set of tailor's scissors (pulled apart) to use as daggers against anything that might hurt him.

The prosthetic limbs are equipped with spikes at the top of the shins to give an effective and painful knee in the ribs to anything that gets close enough.

His goggles feature three magnifying lenses on one side (which used to be for close up needle work) but now serve to protect his eyes from debris.
