The detailed working sheet behind the record: silhouettes, head studies, costume explorations, materials, and equipment. Record 001 presents the character; this sheet specifies it.

AF-CHR-001 / CANONICAL CHARACTER-DESIGN SHEETPRODUCTION REFERENCE
01

Silhouette

Recognizable before detail: a practical traveling figure whose shape remains readable in rain, dusk, conversation, and combat.

02

Clothing / materials

Layered natural cloth, worn leather, quiet metal, repair over ornament. Every surface should suggest use, weather, and distance traveled.

03

Equipment

A bounded kit. Tools and weapons belong to observed needs, not visual excess; additions must earn a place in silhouette and play.

CHARACTER PRINCIPLE

A self authored through consequence.

No forgotten royal blood, no visual shorthand for destiny. The Wanderer becomes legible through the record of what they noticed, believed, promised, and did.

PRODUCTION STATE

Reference established. Implementation open.

The canonical board establishes silhouette, materials, and equipment direction. Animation and in-engine validation remain open production work.
