Description
Most of you will have no idea what the freaking heck this is fanart of, yet it is a fancomic nonetheless.Septerra Core was an RPG that was around about five years ago (around the time my little brother was born, that's how I remember-- Ted was playing it when Mom told us she was pregnant.)
It didn't do very well, unfortunately, even though most of the people who played it loved it, and the studio that made it went under. (I think it might have had something to do with advertising, and it being the wrong time for a story like that, somewhere in that region.)
Anyway, in the game there's this part where Maya, the main character, has to disguise herself as a slave girl to sneak into one of the badguys's lairs. (This is to help out the most recent party member, Lobo-- that robot guy up there.)
In order to change, she goes into this crate the player can't see into-- and suddenly the other two party members turn around, away from the crate.
XD Somehow that struck me as extremely funny, especially since the third person I had chosen for the party at the time was Araym-- who is a pervert. Lobo and Araym are actually buddies, which is why I had chosen him in the first place-- a few subquests in the game revolve around party members randomly attacking each other when they don't like each other during battles, and I didn't want to worry about it. (Besides this, I always had an inordinate fondness for Araym. He's a redhead.
)Don't ask why I've been thinking about Septerra Core after all this time-- sometimes that happens to me-- but I wonder how the creators would feel if they knew that one of their more timid forum members still did fanart of the game? XD

The best storyboard of all the games in the world is Septerra's, but the lazy fools can't make a remake for it, still it would be the best game ever. I love it since I was a little brat
On my fanart, Araym is more perverted as you expected, trust me
I would see the elaborated comic with pleasure, if you would do it ^^ Keep playing! Keep drawing!

Just finshed (re)playing it, and that's how I always imagined that scene

Oh yeah, I remember that game ^^
It was difficult and took a long time to solve, but the ideas they had for this game's story were actually pretty good (although the dialogue before battles were sometimes pretty silly)
But I still think this game is underappreciated.

I was always very fond of the art and worldbuilding, which was very original despite that aspects to the game were very much homages to Japanese RPGs.
I still laugh when I think of the look on Maya's face when punks hit on her. And then the one bit on Shell 6- "Okay, that's IT!" "Uh oh!"
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, that one was good
No, I thought of the recurring exchanges with these two generals of Doskias. In the german dub, they were sometimes quite random.
Like you, I always loved the worldbuilding: the little pieces of mythology and the designs and describtion of the creatures... it was carefully made, and the story had mature and complex issues. Especially Lord Doskias was a very hate-worthy but still great villain.

You captured the attitudes of these two characters in this sketch. They were my two favorite people from Septerra Core.

I played this game before any Final fantasy game and if it wasn't for this game I never would have been addicted to rpg type games! I just got a copy of it ordered on ebay and can't wait to start playing it again. I think my next fan art will be of this, but Badu and... Lynda I think her name was...

LED!!! That was her name!

:3 Thanks for the comment.

Sir, love the fan art and love the game. Played for about a week. I read an FAQ to see where in the game I am(how far)... turns out I'm half way. >.<
It's still on my HDD. I'll finish it one day.
One thing I did notice, which is kinda funny. When Maya tryes to explain the story so far. It sounds so corny. :3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It is corny but with love. X3
I'm somewhere in the middle of my second run-through, actually. I randomly found the game again and had to spend some time with it.

its cute, but the full veiew doesnt work at all

Heh, we recently re-played the game with my sister - until the cruel cathacombes part. I always wondered what happened to Araym' s storyline; we couldn' t have killed the Duke at Outlaw Canyon, right? There would have been some other dialogue than Selina' s help, right? >_>
Anyway, Araym was the most amusing character of the game.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
hum... This got even Older now, it makes 7 years since the release. Nonetheless I'm playing it now and that's why I found it.
Araym isn't a pervert. Anyhows I still think that when I reached that part (I was using him too, because he was needed to unlock Lobo) I'm pretty sure that he might have peeked. I mean, who wouldn't?
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Lol, I think you've got them really well.
I, too, loved it and it is really annoying how little fanfic or fanart there is for Septerra Core.
Hmm, got to start playing some time again, just for old times sake ....

There's much time since I saw any fandom about Septerra Core. It's a shame, cannot be the best rpg ever, but has a good story and charismatic npcs.
Like your little comics, Araym really was a scoundrel, huh, ^^
I remember of an old fic in ff.net with the shipper Araym/Maya...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, it wouldn't have been me that wrote it, because I never wrote fic for SC, but I loved the pairing. XD
Actually I started a club here for it, at (if you haven't happened across it yet) and a link to another person's site there if you've a hankering for more SC stuff anytime soon.

Gwah? You've played Septerra Core? Wow, small world. That game really does need more love. I'm always surprised to actully see someone who's heard of it. It's really fantastic game. I've much love for Lobo and his wonderfully designed head.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
XD Yes, Lobo's design was awesome, and in fact a lot of my design ethstetic was just a bit influenced by SC.
There ought to be a DA club or something for it, except that if I joined I'd never do anything.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I agree, there should. the best I could do for it is... drabble-fics, but hey, it'd be there

... SEPTERRA. Man, this game needs more love. ^__^
Seems like the more obscure a fandom is the more insanely difficult it is to find decent fanart of it. Sketchy as this comic is, though, it's better than most Septerra stuffs I've managed to find on dA. I think you captured the essence of Araym and Lobo perfectly. Especially that last panel. XD

(bows) Thank you very much!
Yes, the game REALLY needs more love.

i like it, and i loved the game, well the story at least

XD I know, a lot of people were annoyed with the battle-setup and how long the loading often took.

Okay someone else from the Core Forum Boards? Can I ask who you were? I'm horribly curious about that now. Still it's nice to see there are a few other fans left out there. The comic gave me and several friends who are still fans a good laugh and I love the pose of Maya in the second pannel for some reason. Also the antics of Lobo and Araym are just so ture to the charactrers.
I'd love to see a follow up with Araym oggling Slave Girl outfit Maya and the result which likely would include someone casting hydro attack on him to cool him off >D

XD It's been a while, (loong while) but the name I usually used was "The Blonde Menace."
I was sort of the shy one, if I remember right. (And the boards might not've been very active when I was on there, either.)

Wait I vaugely recall you I went by the handle Knightman99 at the time I was there I wrote a horrible fic. Which I stopped when I realised it was bad. Anyhow whatcha up to these days? Ironically I'm getting people curious in the game to this very day XD Got a friend the other day to get it and he's playing it now >.> <.<

Mmn, not so much really... I've got a webcomic called The Law of Purple ([link] ), I'm in college, yadayada...
One of my personal dream projects would actually be to adapt SC into a comic, mostly because I like the story so much, and the game really did help define my own art style. (And one of my more long-shot dreams would be to sell it, but somehow it doesn't seem so far out there as to be impossible... just convince the guys with the copyright right now, methodically hunt down and kidnap the people who worked on the game... X3)

Ohh that's neat still though the ending irks me to this day it was ratheranti cilmatic imho. But enough of my griping anyway if you wanna drop me a line and chat a bit? Do you us AIM by any chance?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Mmn, I liked the ending alright, but there were loose ends I needed tied up. What happened to Maya? I'm fairly sure she was that Watcher, but were her wounds that serious or did she become one years later? Where the hell was Tory? (why do I care about Tory?!) What about Corgan, now that he's all hung up on someone he can't be with like he wants to be? (Shrugs)
Someone on the boards answered that once, but I think it was Xeno, who may have had more insight as a beta, but his answers sounded like he was just pulling it out of his butt to get people to stop asking.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Honestly I think it might have been better for Corgan to become a watcher so he could be with his love.
Tori? The little punk is likelt causing trouble still to this day and who knows about when Maya became a watcher my view's it happned when she was close to natural death. I mean the girl did deserve to live a little with all the stuff that happned to her. I think I recall those too... and I agree with ya. Do you still use EMAIL at all I got something you might like to take a look at that two friends of mine did but they don't use Deviant art >.> <.<
