Maintenance for the week of November 25:
• [COMPLETE] PC/Mac: NA and EU megaservers for maintenance – November 25, 4:00AM EST (9:00 UTC) - 7:00AM EST (12:00 UTC)
• Xbox: NA and EU megaservers for maintenance – November 27, 6:00AM EST (11:00 UTC) - 9:00AM EST (14:00 UTC)
• PlayStation®: NA and EU megaservers for maintenance – November 27, 6:00AM EST (11:00 UTC) - 9:00AM EST (14:00 UTC)

Is it just me- or did they use Lucy Lawless as the character design for Lyris Titanborn? ;o)

I can't unsee a blonde Xena Warrior Princess from the trailer version of Dark Heart of Skyrim?

    Have you seen an image of Jennifer Hale, though? To my mind, Lyris (both in game and in the trailer) looks a little closer to her voice actor. From what I understand, that's not an uncommon practice in video games.

    I completely agree.

    That was my first thought when I watched the cinematic... hey, it's Xena!!!

    I thought she looked just like a blonde Lucy, too. LOL! Xena just got a little taller.

    Funny … I know I am newly old (65) but to me Lyris in the "Dark Heart" trailer looked like actress Lindsay Frost (57) when she was in her late twenties ... not Jennifer Hale.

    But now we finally see that she inherited giants DNA. Confirmer by Gjalder, her father, during the quest "Daughter of Giants".

    Wish ZOS would revamp all the appearances of Titanborn to show the new giantess features.

    During the afternoon of Loredas, 6 Sun’s Dawn 2e578 a big piece of Aetherius fell to Nirn. It was the first major piece of Aetherius to fall on Nirn in more than five hundred years. It scattered around the world as millions of shards. It was rapidly documented by Lady Cinnabar of Taneth in her pamphlet Aetherial Fragments that "... when three shards meet, they re-form into a silvery prism by unknown process and confer the power unlocked by the merger to a nearby being." The Order of the Black Worm, commonly known as the Worm Cult, reappeared in Tamriel shortly thereafter and some of its members are avidly searching said shards.
    In the last week of First Seed 2e579, an arcane explosion occurred in the Imperial City — a night of storms, and trembling terrain. They named it the "Soulburst". That day Emperor Varen Aquilarios disappeared without a trace. His wife, Clivia Tharn, ascended to the Ruby Throne as Empress Regent under the guidance of the Necromancer Mannimarco. Ushering a time of increased instability within the Empire of Cyrodiil which finally grew into “The Three Banners War”.

    Don't get ahead of yourself.

    That was a cinematic.

    The in-game models are different in literally every respect.

    Yeah, like elves in trailers are just humans with slightly pointy ears instead, unlike in game where they are actually...well, elves.

    Those features aren't new.
    If you stood next to her, in-game, any time the two of you stopped moving, going all the way back to the first quest in the Main quest line (your first trip to Coldharbour), she was always a good bit taller than you.

    It's just more apparent in this trailer since it's a cinematic.

    Not exactly lookalikes, but I can see your point. Of course, Lyris is a lot beefier, with all the extra giant meat on her bones. :smile:

    I can see similarities in Lyris with both Jennifer Hale and Lucy Lawless in some clips.

    r8NdnX4.jpg

    Lyris' face is a little longer and slimmer like Jennifer's.
    Lyris' nose is a little wider like Jennifer's.
    Lyris' cheekbones are closer to Jennifer's than Lucy's.
    Lyris' has a more sculpted bone structure kind of like Lucy's - stronger jawline and wider chin.
    Lyris' eye shape is like Lucy's.
    Lyris' eyebrow height and shape is kind of like Lucy's.

    Lyris's nose is shorter and her lips may be thin but her cupid's bow is wider - unlike Jennifer's and Lucy's.

    Frontal view though - I don't know.

    So to answer your question, it's just you, or rather you see what you want to see.... Like how people see images in the clouds... or the see faces in designs of things where none were intended.... it's how the brain is hardwired to look for things that seem familiar.

    Combine that with feeling Commander Sheperd has somehow assumed direct control over a Nord in game. Lyris never really fit in for me.
