Naga Fiction

[Misha]

ain't Nazjatar underwater?

 

[VeljkoM]

He's a magic gnome.

 

[Misha]

oh nooo... they have their underwater breathing contraptions X3

 

[VeljkoM]

Make a model of it first.

 

[Misha]

i don't even know how that looks like XD

 

[VeljkoM]

Maybe better some surface naga city?

 

[Chaos.]

I was thinking submarine. So we got a few gnomes as part of TCoRI. Any other ideas?

 

[Lore-Wolf]

cant you make a gnome that morphs into a naga or so?

 

[Chaos.]

That would be too wierd.

 

[VeljkoM]

Is it possible even? Also I hope will make a murloc slave camps.

 

[Lore-Wolf]

and if were gona make a cin it would be fun if every one makes a part it not hard its very simple actually

 

[VeljkoM]

What like a group work cin?

 

[VeljkoM]

Will it be one story or will each make scene?

 

[Lore-Wolf]

scene for one story ay?

 

[varsaigen]

im not too interested in actually making my scene :/ since I don't really have the time or knowledge to make it look good. I've kinda ended my WE days, and also, recently, my Warcraft doesn't want to play any maps >:

 

[Chaos.]

I dont want to make it either. I just want to help with the story line and ideas. I am working on the contest cine atm. So i dont have the time. But Lore-Wolf or whoever can make the actual cine. The rest of us will just give ideas.

 

[VeljkoM]

Var maybe it is because of patch 1.24? Its trade mark is to ruin good maps.
And I kinda have plenty unfinished projects so I kinda can't do it too.

 

[varsaigen]

yep. we can be co-plotters :3

Veljkom, ouch. THat doesn't sound like fun ): Is there a way to uninstal the patch? or possiblyt report it to the developers?

 

[VeljkoM]

No that is a good thing just ask Dr Good and that small group that uses Jass. This patch is what they have been waiting for. But you can use version switcher to have 1.23 and 1.24 version.

 

[Lore-Wolf]

but before i make any cin i need to finish my spore building you will know when its done

 

[Misha]

You could give to var the same patch you gave me VeljkoM. think it's a .22 version or so.. Oo

and Var.. there ain't another way than to reinstall warcraft and patch it with working patch =/

 

[VeljkoM]

This is better:
http://www.dota-utilities.com/2009/08/warcraft-version-switcher-patch-123-124.html
I use 1.23 but I have 1.24 at my disposal. So if you have 1.24 you can change version to be 1.23 and the other way around.

 

[Lore-Wolf]

k im ready to make a cin now done with spore http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/members/172521-albums1894-picture16785.html

 

[Chaos.]

Well first we need to agree on some stuff like the story line. Are we going to make a comedy or do something else? Whatever we decide, the story must include naga. Even if they are the villain.
We also need characters. If we are doing TCoRI (The Cult of Righteous idiots, which I personally love the idea) then i will design the gnome characters (discription, names etc..) There will probably be 3 gnomes chars. If some one else wants to add in some characters from different races then feel free to select a model and write a short description.

 

[Misha]

well if someone wants to use my vampire knight model... or naga models.... or my attachments models... count me in.

 

[Chaos.]

Your models are a must.

 

[Lore-Wolf]

great lets go brain storm

 

[Misha]

i suggest only two of my naga models x3 Lore-Wolf alreaddy used 'em all in the last cinem XD

Also there are models of varsaigen. they too can be usefull. he is a good modeler himself.

 

[varsaigen]

thank you. I've been wondering why I was being left out :<

 

[varsaigen]

the skeleton of a powerful demon is sealed in the claws of the Naga (claws hinting at their control. Likle "in the the palm of your hands") And, once opened, the skeleton awakens and begins trying to destroy the world once more? :3

 

[Chaos.]

So there is an idea for the main villain.

The skeleton has been locked up in a chamber that the naga have guarded for centuries. In a city in the middle of the maelstorm. Should we go with that or do you guys have a better ideas on a place.

 

[Chaos.]

Yes, we will need Var's models too. Especially the lurker. It would make a funny scene.
Idiot - "Oooohh shiny light."

 

[VeljkoM]

That reminds me of the captain Le Chunk the undead pirate from Joes quest (and rest campaigns by Mad mapmaker).

 

[Chaos.]

The evil skeleton is over-used, but we can role with it until we think of something better.

 

[VeljkoM]

Var said that naga skeleton is easy to make.

 

[varsaigen]

if you ahve the ability to transfer the anims and the skeleton, its simple. Otherwise, you could replace the naga mesh with geomerged bones. :/ That is one way to do it :/ simple texture too lol dragon bones :3 perhaps make a second one with a crystal like the frostwyrms have

My idea for the demon would likely be a skeletal Magtheridon. :3 If done right, it could looks absolutly epic!!!

 

[Chaos.]

Evil naga skeleton definatly hasnt been done before. If someone could make the model for this cine then that would make an epic villain.

Story

He betrayed the naga long ago. He became extremely poweful and tried to kill the naga so they had no choice but to imprison him. For Centuries he was locked up in a chamber. but could never physically die. Adventually his flesh began to whither away until only his skeleton was left.

But a skeleton Magtheridon would be pretty cool aswell.

 

[Silverfish423]

Maybe he could be a servant of a powerful Naga Death Knight that managed to rebel and goes on a journey of his own for self examination to figure what his existance in this life means.....hiss?

OK, you know what, MY IDEA. i wanna make my idea into a campaign after i finish my scourging of azeroth map...wow...i am really interested in making this...lol

 

[varsaigen]

i dunno, Chaos, your making a Giant Demon Naga pretty convincing..... lol massive skeletal Myrmidon :3

Similer conept is the Hakkar the Soulflayer basically, his bony avatar, but a naga instead

Going to need epic eye flames for the skeletal naga..... and its going to be pure bone? or perhaps a bit of crystals growing on him? or whatelse should we add? :3

 

[Silverfish423]

wat is with all of these conspiracies about naga imprisoning other naga because the naga tried to kill other naga.....i think you guys are having fantasies about overthrowing the queen....hiss...!!

 

[Chaos.]

Crystals growing out would be freaking epic. It would be like an undead version of my elders char.

 

[Silverfish423]

wat about blue cracks in the bones? so it would look like the skeleton is going to explode from the energy contained within the skeleton. then the dissipate animation could be him exploding.

 

[Chaos.]

That sounds pretty sweet aswell.

 

[Misha]

LOL.
if i were to make the bone naga.. who then would animate him to explode on death?

 

[Silverfish423]

you could use the animation from the Obsidian Statue.....it dies by shaking and exploding open in a flash of energy and pieces of it lay on the ground.

 

[varsaigen]

bit hard to animate ): I guess simply turning into blue energy particles would be enough? (the body writhes as the blue particles drift upwards and disappear. Simply put: the shaman's death anim idea )

as for a conperacy against thequeen? well, one possible reason would be that females are the leaders of society ): they are the most common magic users, and t emales are set up as warriors instead of an equal chance for magic ):

 

[Misha]

shaman death on a naga? You'll get a naga statue var. 8(
naga bones are incompatible to that anim

 

[varsaigen]

i was talking about the effect, not the actual anim transfer D: you DO know what the shaman's death looks like right? He has particles rise from his writhing body and his body collapses on the ground.

 

[Misha]

yeah, but those particles are nothing without the anim, and believe me i tried '~'

 

[varsaigen]

well, it is possible we could rig the mesh to the myrmidon's bone structure, and grant it the special anim for it's death :3 and just transfer everything else except the death and decay anims

Or, we can just animate it from scratch I'm sure that I can find a way to animate the slithering now. I am seeing it clearer and clearer now how the Blizzard model moves :/
