Description Thought I'd take a break from doing so much Pokemon art and take a step back. This was something I did today in honor of one of my favorite games, Phantasy Star Online.

To tell the truth, about five-six years ago, I had the intention of doing a full-length fan fiction using the characters shown, who are all characters that I made/encountered in the game. I have no intention of doing it anymore, but I'll be glad to share who's who in this pic.

The characters are:
-Dhibes (the central figure)-the intended protagonist. Dhibes is a RACAST (something of an Android Heavy) with no recollection of his past before being on Pioneer 2. He is among one of thousands of Hunters who answer the call to investigate the explosion that rocked the surface of the planet Ragol. Armed with powerful long-range weapons, like the Anti-Android Rifle, Dhibes hopes to not only learn the mystery behind the great explosion, but also to recollect his memories of the past.

-Madhu (the Floating orb next to Dhibes)- Madhu is Dhibes's MAG- a mechanical assistant made for Hunters- made to serve Dhibes. Madhu offers great support in battle, even giving Dhibes the power to use powerful techniques called Photon Blasts.

-Sleet (the figure on the top left) A joker and an upbeat FOMAR (a human spellcaster) Dhibes meets while investigating Ragol. Sleet dreams of being able to fully explore the surface of Ragol, and perhaps build a home. Armed with powerful spells and staves, Sleet can a force to be reckoned with upfront or afar.

-Zanji (figure taking up most of the right)-A HUCAST (an android hunter) who runs a bar on Pioneer 2. Zanji has been around for quite a long while, often actin as a voice of reason for bar regulars and anyone he meets and associates with. Though soft-spoken and reserved, Zanji is a powerful upfront fighter, armed with the Greatsword Zanba, the Katana replica Agito (AUW 2001) and a Kaladbolg laser saber.

-Ami (the girl on the bottom left)- A young Newman (a genetically-enhanced human) girl who sings at Zanji's bar, she was raised from an orphaned youth by Zanji himself. Sleet has a crush on her, but because Ami was raised by a CAST, She has trouble associating with humans or other newmans. In fact, she had developed something of a "CAST-fetish", which causes her to become enamored by Dhibes rather than Sleet, though the CAST is aware that relations between him and the girl could never be possible.As a Hunewearl (Female Hunter Newman), Ami boasts good technical power and great speed, using weapons like her Twin Chakram or Photon Claw to augment such properties.

NPC characters:
-Rico (the figure just above Dhibes)- Also known as "Red Ring Rico" for the red ring armlet she wears on her arm, Rico was a well known figure who was among the many from Pioneer 1 that disappeared from Ragol's surface after the explosion. She seems to play a key role in Dhibes's memories.
-Heathcliff Flowen (The figure behind Zanji)- Flowen was the Deputy Commander of Pioneer 1's Military force when the vessel arrived on the surface of Ragol. By the time Pioneer 2 arrived in Ragol's atmosphere, reports came in suggesting that Flowen had died...
-Kireek (the figure beneath Dhibes)- A HUCAST from Pioneer 2. Much about him is shrouded in mystery, save for the weapon he carries: A cursed scythe known as the Soul Eater. He seems to have a special interest in Dhibes, particularly his 'soul'.

EDIT: Decided to ink it and do it in color.

I believe there's also a PC version of this game, and some of the Phantasy Star Universe games too, if you're interested.

Nice PSO collage. It would have been interesting to see more of the PSO universe expanded by branching side stories-- but this artwork is plenty. Nice to see Flowen, Red Ring Rico, and Kireek-- although the placement of Kireek looks kind of odd being shaped and defined by the contours of Dhibes's legs.

Yeah, I'll admit, I wasn't doing a lot of thinking when I placed Kireek there
