Wizard of Oz: Character Design

University Term Project - Wizard of Oz RPG remake. (module portfolio submission: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zos4G_g3rOe59X1E-Z9Q9Y-GhF7omZNa/view?usp=sharing).

For this project, I chose to set the reimagined world of Oz in a Cyber-Gothic* dystopian universe.
Cyber-Gothic*: the word Gothic here refers to the Gothic genre which appeared in the 18th Victorian century which involved both Architecture, Literature, and Art. It is not referring to the modern ‘goth’ subculture.

This is my character design for my Cowardly Lion.

The cyber-overlay is essentially a physical and visual representation of the characters and the world’s powers, very similar to holograms. In a game setting, this 'Cyber-Mode' can only be activated for a short period of time, but it would drastically increase the character's stats.
