⛩ Samurai hunt idea ⛩

Discussion in 'Off Topic' started by shogun_, May 24, 2020.

  1. Now I know people enjoyed the crypt hunt I’m pretty sure it was a Halloween hunt I’m not quite sure bc I wasn’t active at that time but I’m certain people enjoyed the rewards they got as people are still trying to get the furni and the avatars that were in the box.

    I’ve created a base for the hunt with drawn pictures at the bottom of the post. Yes I am being biased with Japanese styled furniture and avatars, but with the small details that go into the avatars and furniture I’m sure people who aren’t even familiar or are interested in such hunt will enjoy at least one of the things that would be in the hunt. I’m sure the people will love the hunt as it portrays the evil/ demons, aggressiveness and the peace that’s shown in the war for a split second, I want people to feel that when they get items from this hunt.

    Alright now I’ll describe what’s going on in the images below as I’m not familiar with this forum system, also I’m sorry for my bad drawing, haven’t practiced for years.

    avatars

    Female -
    - hybrid of human and demon/Oni

    - skin is human but the muscle is different colour, bleeds red blood but changes colour when exposed to the light generated by her powers (orb, middle of horns)

    - beads around her neck is large prayer beads, dark brown with clear visibility to the woods circular pattern.

    - shoulder armour has been detached from the rest of the samurai armour. Preferably dark red with a black outline

    -gauntlets has also ben detatched from the rest of the armour (same process as the shoulder armour.

    -hands are black gloves with semi thick daggers (kind of like knuckledusters but this one would inflict knife damage as well as the blow of the punch)

    - Torso it’s a regular torn tshirt for increased sex appeal. Going lower is her obliques followed by abs that have been cut and are bleeding.

    - left upper leg has a little attached pouch that has been added for style reasons, continuing lower is a samurai dagger bandaged onto her leg (couldnt draw a knot so left it as one continuous line.

    -Right upper leg is fresh bandage mixed with some torn and bloodied patch bandage. Continuing to the lower part is her calf muscle to where it’s been cut and bleeding.

    - pants (clothing) some tight spandex for additional sex appeal

    - feet. Normal appearance with wooden geta sandals.

    -head
    -horns should come out almost like antlers (from the side) texture of horns would be “cracked sand texture” a bit like magma too and it would ease up to the bottom of the horns where it’s a bright shiny red (this is so it gives the effect of where the orb is generated is burning her horns.
    - hair black possibly with hints of red strings as an effect from the horn particles mixing in
    -eyes human shaped (not like the image triangular) however the inner eye like the iris should be like a lizard vertical slit but a slightly wider version to show the hybrid of the design.
    - teeth, fangs literally just like vampire, teeth should be on the clean side no one enjoys dirty teeth.
    -nose, jaw, cheeks, ears should all be normal, compared to the closest average human but put to a sharper side as it’s a hybrid. Sharper jawline, ears etc, nose has to be just normal or the character will be ugly ugly.

    -cape it’s a regular cape, (design adventure) isn’t required for the character.

    -swords 2 special katanas with the signature clay pattern however the other one should be a more sharper rigid pattern just so they look different.

    -preference for the light source to be the orb (obviously) and like I said the blood reacts to the orb and changes colour so some blood patches would be in a different colour and then other patches would be a regular dark red but maybe there could be a spill on the floor showing the gradient of the two colours which I think would be cool and it would provide some players with insight of what’s happening rather than them thinking it’s a design error.

    - Male

    -head
    -helmet is a traditional samurai piece of armour with an ornament
    -mask. This mask has broken about 1/3 off to expose the face. The mask creates a dark shadow void for the eyes and create original oni/demon teeth
    -face has a large scar going diagonally up to the left across the mouth which does that it’s stitched up, inspiration from scare crow, it’s important to give the feeling that it’s tearing off the lips and diging deeper into the skin with the few threads that are there.

    -neck accessory it’s a compressed neck armour consisting of 8 iron prices being held up by a string of leather

    -torso there’s only one piece of clothing for the arms and torso which is the monk styled robe which is torn open and torn on the edges, better of this was really baggy to really express the wind blowing against him. There’s nothing under the robe which exposes his human skin (abs and chest)

    -hands are covered in traditional samurai armour

    -legs left upper leg is exposed to show that he is heavily armoured with samurai plates running down his thigh, continuing lower he has shin armour covered by bandages to keep it in place
    -leg right is copy of left leg just covered up by the robe

    -feet are typical samurai shoes

    - swords, there are 5 swords in total all regular sized katanas. All swords give off power and its shown by the aura around them (it’s very important to have a very subtle change of rainbow coloured blur and other darker colours to represent the aura otherwise it can look very childish or just excessive. From the first sword I tried to represent the surge of power that comes with the blade as it’s getting drawn.

    -my view. I tried to create this character where he’s in a stance of drawing the sword thus the bent leg, this character was kind of an inspiration from one piece (zoro) just having insane amount of swords on one person, another inspiration would be from the show naruto (madara uchiha) and finally inspiration from scarecrow the batman villain. im also not quite sure how the swords are held up, I was originally planning to have a medium thick rope around his waist and chest to hold up the swords.


    Furniture
    29 ec - 3 piece sword wall stand (different shaped and designs of each and the bottom one is a butchers knife/ machete styled sword with my name signed in small letters

    19 ec - 2 ninja stickles modified. The one going diagonally up to the left with the face was meant to be a dragon ish biting down on the back of the blade and the one going up to the right is just a custom build with a small ornament on the back of the blade

    199 ec - hammock bed with criss cross pattern made from straw and a animal pelt as a blanket 1/3 falling off the hammock, pillow is different animal pelt stitched together with feathers inside.

    19 ec - wallpaper (wip) I wasn’t quite sure about the wall paper preferably traditional Japanese indoor paper and wood interior with a clear cut from a sword swipe to indicate a battle held indoors.

    29 ec - my attempt at a skull but the idea is to have a ogre skull with fangs for teeth and fire coming out of the eyes. This will be used as a lamp.

    19 ec - floor (also wip) preferably a traditional straw carpet

    99 ec - rug rolled down with a raw straw texture and pattern.

    39 ec - coffee table is my attempt at a temple dog statue (head) with a medium thick glass pane.

    (Shelf items)
    Top shelf item - special long blade (just blade no hilt etc)
    middle shelf item - bonsai tree
    Bottom shelf item - wet stones for sharpening swords there are 3 different wet stones 2 are stacked on top of each other with the other stone next to those two. There should be water leaking off the shelf to indicate some sort of use of the stones.

    - shelf it self is a regular dark wooden colour with clear marks of sword swipes across the side of the shelf to a cut on the middle shelf stand, broken off shelf with some scratches.

    499 ec - pet is a viper preferably albino wrapped around a piece of wood

    19 ec - Should be the long bow, this is an excessively long bow mounted diagonally with leather bolted into the wall. Arrows along side it being held up by its strap ( I didn’t think that far ahead and I was meant to create a hanging effect of the arrows)

    299 ec - table is a very large sword impairing a man who should be more diagonal. He’s sliding down with clear blood stains on the sword (should be some on the floor too) also the floor shows a clear broken part to where the sword was impaled into. (Man is wearing samurai armour , no sign of powers on him)

    999 ec - 1st idea cherry blossom tree with a Shrine statue in the distance with a clear path leading to it and a man standing under it with their sword drawn
    - 2nd idea is just having a full samurai armour stand

    49 ec - plant two pieces of bamboo growing

    39 ec - window item (wip not quite sure about that one possibly more weapons or some sort of quote written on the wall by scratches.

    69 ec - chair very weird chair game of thrones styled. Chair is made from like 80% katana blades I tried adding skulls for hand grip and a bear pelt with paw to sit on

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] Thank you for taking your time to go through this poorly sketched hunt idea. But I do actually believe if it’s created with the right colours and in-depth feeling, the people will love it. Dm me or wall me if y’all wanna chat about this sort of stuff or anything I’ll be on.

  2. It’s cool that you put so much thought into this...but we do have a thread for posting Hunt ideas here.

    We had a Japanese hunt over a year ago, but this is different enough to be a new hunt I think. With the exception of the above bed, since it’s almost identical to an item from the aforementioned hunt.

  3. Very well thought-through. Thank you for posting this as a thread so I could actually find and read it rather than putting it into that insular thread which is meant to prevent spam of low-effort, poorly thought-through hunt ideas that don't deserve to be threads all on their own.

    I am looking forward to this.

    Watch them butcher it and make it inaccurate, though.

  4. Oh I had no idea they had that sort of hunt. As goes for the bed I thought I would try something more traditional like sleeping mats or a hammoc but thank you for the support 🤙🏻
