Description

At last, it is finished! :D

Just a little promotional art for my otome visual novel project, Essence. Portrayed in a cartoonish style are all the eligible boys of the game, which is set in a post-apocalyptic world in which technology is so advanced that the souls of humans can be transferred into robotic vessels. These human/machines are called Essence Androids.

Alice, originally a human girl, wakes up in one of these mechanical bodies, having no memory of her previous life other than the world that existed before a virus, Blight, destroyed nearly all life on Earth. Only the sullen Cath, a hotheaded boy with extremely tight pants a knack for survival, appears to aid her in her journey to find her body and restore the world to its original state.

From left to right:

Cath. Alice's guardian and companion. Incredibly irritable and practical, but very protective of Alice. His in-game sprite: [link] Portrait: [link]

Linus's Band of Survivors:
Acer. A very cheerful and mischievous computer nerd. He can also be obnoxious but no one can stay mad at him for long. Portrait: [link]

Steven. An escaped experiment. After having his cells altered, Steven is detectable only by his sounds and the clothing he wears. Very compassionate and kind, he is also an excellent cook. Portrait: [link]

Daemon. An escaped experiment, like Steven. He is a plant/human hybrid. Keeps to himself due to an inferiority complex, though never hesitates to help out. Loyal and innocent. Portrait: [link]

Mak. A botanist and old friend of Linus's. He aids Linus in his search for a cure for Blight. Quite gregarious, Mak never passes up a chance to flirt, though his passion lies in gardening. He is Daemon's closest companion and constantly cares and tends to the frail boy. Portrait: [link]

Linus. The leader of the survivors. A mechanic/chemist, Linus is the most levelheaded of the boys and maintains order in the group. Though he looks rugged, he has a gentle heart and offers encouragement and kindness whenever possible. Portrait: [link]

Enemy:

Ivan. An assassin tasked with retrieving Alice and bringing her to Malware's headquarters, the evil organization that employs him. Ivan acts tough but is a bit of a ditz, constantly fumbling and spouting bravado instead of completing his work. He has a heavy accent. It really annoys Alice whenever he calls her 'girlie.' He also reeks of manliness in his hot pink tank top. In-game sprite: [link]


There are plenty more characters, but I just wanted to include the boys here. n.n Enjoy, and note me with any questions on the game! I hope to release the demo in the near future.
