An Odd Mix (Introducing Salt and Pepper)
Salt Meet Salt. A young inter-galactic bounty and treasure hunter. He is determined, capable and generally calm.
His past is unspoken of, and all that is known is that the Galactic Agency of Artifact Safe-Keeping took him in when he was young and raised him to be a treasure hunter, although he often takes bounty work as well.
He never got along with other Hunters, and is extremely effective when working solo. Pepper is the only companion he'll have by his side. Currently on a task given by the Agency, while on his way to the agency after recovering the Crystal of Light, his ship crashed on Erospoth. The reason for the crashing is unknown and he's fallen into a 10 year coma.
(This is WIP, and in no way shows the finished version)
Pepper
Pepper is Salt's loyal companion, and they've been through a lot together, although they've only been together for just over a year.
She's quick-tempered and hot-headed and can act out of pure instinct, especially when she shouldn't. This particular trait of hers has gotten Salt and her into a lot of trouble so far, but it's gotten them out of far worse situations too.
Pepper has the peculiar ability of morphing into just about any shape or form, serving as a weapon to Salt amongst other utilities. It took a while for them to get along, but now they've got each other's backs, no matter the situation.
(We'll soon have media to show off about Pepper!)
The Duo
Salt met Pepper while recovering an ancient and very specially designed vial containing a liquid that was said to desintegrate anything it touched, even the very fabric of reality(That's what the tome said!)
After recovering the vial, Salt found a device with a simple button on it. By pressing it, he awoke Pepper, who couldn't remember anything from before the last time she was awake, if she ever was.
Even though they've only met a year ago, they've been through quite a bit together. From recovering ancient artifacts from planets in the far reaches of space, to recovering(ahem! stealing!) artifacts from certain galactic-emporer's secret vaults(Technically, it was stealing, but it was all legal.. kind of. Pepper swears it... and so does the Agency that tasked them with it!).
They've found themselves in some odd situations, and explored things by themselves. They also occasionally take Bounty Contracts, and it took them a while until they got the hang of it(or each other).
Closing Up
We're currently working on getting as much info about the Faded World Episode as we can possibly share, and it's coming along very nicely. We're not showing things on a bit-by-bit basis just yet, because we want to have a lot to show off when we do, soon. To be honest this is what we're expecting when we say *soon*: We're working on getting a playable Alpha version which we'll then use to show off major features we have planned. This Alpha version is scheduled to be ready within a week, and then we'll just need to play around with it, see what we can do and what we can't, what we can show, and what's not ready just yet. In April we also plan on releasing some promotional Alpha Footage, more Concept Art pieces, and start an Indiegogo Campaign to get the budget we need to register needed licensing(more details on it *soon*)! Up to a couple of weeks ago our pacing wasn't as fast as we would've liked, it was going a little slow, but now it's going much much faster. Every single day we see and hear something new, something that builds on and grows the Faded World Episode, and you're a part of it!
