Mesoamerican Fantasy Warrior Character Design

The main character of my Mesoamerican fantasy personal project.

The idea was for this character to be in an ARPG/Metroidvania-type game. The armor is loot gained by defeating certain enemies. Some armors provide special moves, as seen on the second page of this project.

He wields a Macahuitl-style whip sword, named "the Serpent Sword," that can perform different special moves depending on armor or skills gained through gameplay.

Inspiration for this project includes video games like Diablo, Chrono Trigger, and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. As well as anime such as Saint Seiya, One Piece, and Dragon Ball.
