Character Design: Chanta Fey Part III

2D Turn-around:



2D turn-around for Chanta Fey (character design assignment, category - cute & cunning). Yeah, that's a LOT of turns. LOL~ But it was in the requirements so I can't do anything about that. She's a neo-futuristic hacker and that's actually a laptop bag she's wearing around her waist.

---

Background Story:

- Chanta hacked into a highly classified government network in search of some leads regarding her brother (Milo Fey) who has mysteriously disappeared without a trace for nearly 6 months, and unwittingly stumbles upon a clandestine government-military project involving time-travel/dimensional-crossover by ripping a hole out of the fabric of time and space.

- She discovered, after much researching and skimming through complex algorithms, that if the project were to be continued as planned... well, it's suffice to say that something was bound to go terribly, terribly wrong and that if it is not halted, humanity itself could be potentially wiped out of existence (it's always this, isn't it?). Of course, it was highly unlikely that the mad scientists under the strings of the government had overlook something as crucial as this, so she concluded that they simply 'turned a blind eye' and persisted against their better judgements (as most officials tend to do).

- Naturally, being a somewhat 'normal' citizen, Chanta couldn't care less whether or not the fate of the world hangs in balance. Her only priority was in tracking down her bro's location.

- It wasn't long (overnight was more like it) before she was declared a 'wanted' outlaw and was forced to leave her shabby apartment and into hiding with pursuers hot on her trail.

- She soon discovers that her bro's disappearance was tightly linked to the project and that he may in fact be stuck in the past or worse, in the past of some alternate plane that's different from her own (Haha, my fondness with parallel world themes is hard to curb).

- At the same time, she begins to receive strange, encrypted messages and clues left in places often frequented by herself and her brother which lead her to believe that in some ways, her brother was trying to reach her from wherever he was. And thus, begins her relentless search for her only remaining family as she attempts to dodge government agents sent to hunt her down.

Oh, I know it's a pretty common storyline...

More to come in Part IV. [Part I / Part II]
