Art and sprites for Meri and Kulta!




My intent is to give all of the kobolds different body shapes. For example, Meri is bulkier than Miel to reflect that she's a melee fighter, but she isn't as heavyset as Kertu (an armored fighter) and is in better shape than Ajatta (an old woman who fights with mental powers, not physical prowess). Kulta has a very generic "heroic" silhoutte with broad shoulders, thick limbs, and a tapered waist which reflects his do-gooder personality and makes him look different from Veitti who is also orange and physically fit but has a more lanky build. All of this, of course, is a massive joke when you consider that the kobold sprites (as demonstrated above) are all recolors of each other with different clothes pasted on, but it's a neat little exercise in character design nonetheless and will surely get quite difficult when there are eventually 40+ characters.

I also increased the radius of Kulta's healing aura to 2 tiles as it just wasn't terribly useful when it only affected allies directly adjacent to him.
