Northern Iron - Creating Characters

The Northern Iron game I am creating contains a diverse and disparate cast of characters each one an example of the attitudes and ideologies of the three in-game factions. Some brief descriptions of the central characters that feature in the story mission are as follow:

Rachael Chadwick: The main protagonist of the game and pilot of the Weapon of Sass Destruction, she is a member of the Northern Resistance and is hoping to end the war between the Marauders and the Sons of Iron.

Anita El Draque: The leader of the Marauders and Crimson Teeth clan, a ruthless pirate who calls herself the pirate queen, she wants nothing more than to lead her men on the biggest bender across the world and to claim all of the best loot for herself.

Boozelord Huntley: The leader of the Nasti Moon clan and ally of Anita El Draque, hailing from Nottinghamshire, he has converted the entirety of Leeds into breweries and distilleries in order to provide almost limitless supplies of alcohol to the rest of the pirate empire.

Because the characters would not be physically appearing within the game, at least, not outside of their mechs, we needed a way to signify their appearance while they were speaking over the cockpit radios. To that end we created character profiles that would show their face that would appear in the corner of the screen when the character was speaking.

Below are various character concepts that are examples of the three factions.

Resistance Members

Sons of Iron soldiers
