Player 1 (that’s you!), Vote now for your Metamorphosis character! The two winners will appear in the final version of the fighting game picture!

Click the little camera to see the character’s picture.

Also, a little surprise! Leave a comment if you are selecting the alternate costume for whoever you pick. You might be surprised with what comes out!

This poll will remain open for about a week and then we’ll go on to P2′s pick.

Here’s the characters and all their fighting styles

Qul – Two daggers; Fast offensive melee attacker, light weight

K’zink – Two slashdiscs; Fast projectile attacker, light weight

Lasc – Longspear; Medium-speed, long range melee attacker, heavy weight

Drake – Mechanogauntlets; Medium-speed versatile combatant, medium weight

Ianthe – Psychic power; Medium-speed magic attacker, light weight

Dirk – Bastard sword; Medium-range melee attacker, heavy weight, faster but slightly lighter than Lasc (First Appearance)

Pel – Newly unlocked and untested physical attacker! (First Appearance)

Alyssa — Newly unlocked and untested magic attacker! (First Appearance)

Marek – Newly unlocked and untested versatile attacker! (First Appearance)

All right, here’s your chance to decide who’s gonna face off against Dirk in the first ever Metamorphosis Brawl. Pick your character from the poll below! Same as before, if you want to see an alternate costume idea, mention it in a comment. And now I have to decide if Dirk gets an alternate costume or not. Remember: If you’re not sure who someone is, you can click the camera icon to see his or her picture! I believe you can vote about once every 24 hours. That’s how it worked with the last one. So let’s see these numbers fly!

Happy voting!

Today is the first birthday of Metamorphosis! To celebrate, I have a bunch of excellent and exciting pictures. First is the fighting game picture that I’ve promised!

The final results were Dirk and Qul and I drew them both in their alternate outfits. Dirk’s dressed in gladiator’s garb. Qul is wearing the sort of body paint he’d wear back on Ssilir. His clan’s totem is a razrak, a six-legged hunting cat found in Ssilirian wilds. The prominent members of that clan wear body paint that resembles a razrak’s fur. Ssilirians generally only wear clothing for ceremony because their habitat and their scaly hides remove the need for clothes as protection the way humans need them. Body paint became the prominent fashion style because of the large number of dye-producing flora in Ssilir’s rich biosphere.

In any case the above’s the results of the polls and the celebration picture from me to the Metamorphosis readers!

KiwiValkyrie also worked on an amazing birthday present for Metamorphosis!

It’s utterly amazing what she did and definitely one of the coolest things anyone’s made for this comic! Below are a few still pictures so you can get a clearer view of what’s going on.
