From The Mana World

This article contains information for Artists working or interested in working for The Mana World

This article is currently only a proposal

The features or design guidelines described in this article are only a proposal made by one or some persons. It has not been evaluated or accepted by the core development team yet. Feel free to add your personal opinion about them or make counter proposals.

This page is intended as a whiteboard for graphic developers to post their creations.

I prefered the word creature over monster because I pretend to aglutinate every living being which is not a player nor a NPC.

I will suggest a standard questionnaire with a number of characteristics you should provide. If you don't know what to put on some of them don't worry! someone will fill the gaps with his/ her suggestions.

Please, when suggesting other data add a comma and your suggest. Do not erase or alter previous work.

Feel free to suggest more fields. --Pajarico 21:03, 12 April 2006 (CEST)
