Main characters- Artwork and introduction

Hello!
Now that I've finished off the secondary character Baldwin, I feel ready to introduce all the characters to you.

I will begin with the main protagonist- Matilda.


Matilda is the main character in Aterweald II and the player will be playing as her most of the time.
She was born in Barrowstead- a fairly big town, somewhat close to the eponymous Aterweald.
Although she was staying in Barrowstead for the most of her life, she is adventurous type of a woman. She is longing for adrenaline.
 In Aterweald II, Matilda is engaged in the story as she meets a member of a secret society of witch hunters which are investigating the Aterweald case.

Now I shall continue with the second protagonist- Baldwin.


Baldwin is a secondary character in Aterweald II, yet the player will periodically take control over him.
He is an inflated man who is pretty much Matilda's opposite type of a character.
He does not want any adrenaline in his life but his fate is much different.
In Aterweald II, Baldwin happens upon a very unfortunate series of events after which, he ends up in the dungeon of the Ses' fort. For the rest of the game he will be desperately trying to escape it with not even caring about the mystery he was drawn into.

And now last, but not least- Ses


Ses is the main antagonist in Aterweald II.
He is a fantasy deity which represents the sunlight. He lives in a fort, hidden inside a system of caves north of Aterweald. 
 Although his superior powers, Ses is unknown to the world. His only worshippers were a few so-called witches which, at some point, had their souls bought off from Ses. In exchange he gave them magical powers.
 Ses possesses the power to transport people, or anything else for that matter, to a parallel world named
Nac'ba.
 Nac'ba is Ses' world. A world of nothing. No time. No life. Nothing.
Nac'ba is a infinite desert. However, Nac'ba appears to be much older than Ses itself. Ses merely inherited the control over Nac'ba from his ancestors- The ancient ones which do not appear anywhere in the game.
I will explain more about Nac'ba in some of my future posts.


I hope you find the characters interesting!

Bye!
