Game Synopsis
Aetherial is an open-world, sci-fi fantasy, adventure game that takes place within the three planets of the Aetherial solar system. Within the solar system, an abundance of magical creatures and beasts reside, possessing magic through their body. Unlike most magic creatures, the Luvi are the dominant race within these realms, those whom do not possess magic within their physical form. The story follows a young Luvi travelling to explore the biology of magic. Joined on their adventure is a young, ancient beast known as Numana, a rare but powerful creature who develops an unshakable bond with the traveller.
Default character design for Tiberius and Flit.
Protagonist: Tiberius
Species: Luvi
Species: Luvi
A curious, wandering Luvi travelling across the planets in hopes of learning about magic and the creatures of Aetherial. Externally, a hardy character with a fighting spirit when loved ones are in harm's way who has a tender spot for the creatures. Internally, playful at heart, youthful and optimistic spirit, believing every living being serves a purpose in the universe.
Tiberius is fascinated with the biology of magic within creatures as opposed to the art of magic as a wielded power. After saving Flit and caring for him, Tiberius developed a playful bond with the Numana, often communicating through banter.
Sidekick: Flit
Species: Numana
Species: Numana
On the younger side of the Numana, he is very reserved and fearful of the Luvi much like a predator. Flit is very slow to trust, and timid on the surface. Once you've gained his trust, he proves to be loyal beyond limits. Flit grew to be more expressive and open upon getting rescued by Tiberius.
With Tiberius, he is a vibrant, loyal, and mischievous companion with a sense of caution. In times of trouble, Flit's loyalty will shine brightest, fiercely protective of Tiberius and quick to defend. The two friends communicate via telepathic abilities that Flit wields, often giving the two a greater advantage during combat
