Kelemvor, God of the Dead
High Poly and Low Poly game assets.

Project: Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer
Developer: Obsidian Entertainment
Publisher: Atari

Kelemvor is covered in a darkly robed hood adorned with ancient decor. His famous cat's eyed emerald belt was also included. His face is covered in a shiny death mask of his face from life. Although seen only briefly in the game, it feel this character is still a cool figure to have worked on.

Kelemvor is the new god of the dead, surpassing Myrkul in reign. This creation of this character was a very interesting one.

When first approached to do the new god of the dead, a flood of ideas came to mind in terms of how to best execute this character. Instead, I was shown a picture from an older D&D image and told to model exactly that. After creating the assets for this, I later learned that this was incorrect and that the image I was shown was what he looked like when he was still alive :x

I revisited the model with the correct description, reusing as many of the older assets as possible and was able to achieve the a look that everyone could be pleased with.
