Hey there everybody. \u00a0We’re still getting acclimated to life without Kickstarter, but that doesn’t mean there’s ever any time to relax. We’ve got books going out to new fans, we’re cleaning up our old catalog, and we are of course writing new material as fast as we can. In fact, word has it there might be a new State of Tellest blog post coming right around the corner.<\/p>\n
But I digress. \u00a0That’s not why you’re here today. \u00a0You’re here to see some awesome new concept art, courtesy of our artificer, Azot.<\/p>\n
Just as before, Azot has put in a lot of work on two pieces of Tellest history. \u00a0Both of them are part of Kaos Kreegan’s ensemble\u2014at least as far as The Bindings of Fate<\/em> is concerned.<\/p>\n We’ll start off with the Iron Kiss, which is the item Kaos had for far longer. \u00a0It’s a leather glove with magnetic properties, making it capable of unlocking just about any chest or door he comes across.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n As always, we should remind you that Azot’s art is highly stylized. There’s a good chance that the artifacts our heroes would use are probably a little more mundane looking than these gorgeous pieces, but what’s the fun in that?<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n As you can see here, things are coming together great. \u00a0The Iron Kiss is one of the favorite items that Kaos relies on. \u00a0After all, it’s not all that entertaining getting to a treasure chest and not being able to see what’s inside.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Here’s the final look at this awesome artifact. \u00a0I love the extra flourishes that Azot put on the piece, like the trim, the lock symbol, and the little dice-looking pattern there at the bottom.<\/p>\n After that, let’s move on over to one of our former main character’s new pieces of equipment. \u00a0This is the Ring of Amplification, which\u2014as its name implies\u2014empowers something. \u00a0But what? \u00a0Well, as of now, it only works with the powers of someone who is what we call a Child of the Stars. \u00a0There are only a few of them who have been revealed in the series, including Kaos Kreegan, Essex Cayne, and the stranger known as Azura. \u00a0But things are known to change.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Here are some early sketches of the artifact. \u00a0The symbol of the starchildren is a black sun around a blue triangle. \u00a0Azot also gave us a version that was a little less accurate in case we wanted to mix things up a bit.<\/p>\n
