Well I wasn't able to find a thread for this, let alone find the wallpaper I saw the other day again, but all 6 of the Priests of Ys were drawn and I have yet to see them anywhere in the game save for Fact of course. This is the closest I've been able to find pertaining to the artwork of the priests. homepage1.nifty.com/sugimo/falcom/Ys/ys_chr_9.htm#6sinkanI was wondering if Falcom simply made that artwork to fill the game in more or some other reason. But I can't imagine it'd expand the game universe considering it was by mere chance I actually saw it while looking for some Ys Origin wallpaper. On a sidenote, I wonder why Falcom enjoys the Fact's and Toba's so much, both families have the most known members of any of the priests lineage. |

Well what do you know.. it was at Falcom all along. =/ After watching the opening intro, I noticed the priests this time. Here I thought they weren't anywhere in the game and were merely wallpapers. |

Links don't work Floofy. I could use a picture of Fukt though.

So what were you expecting this whole time?  They're 6, old priests... IMO, they look pretty cool for a bunch of old wise folk. Definitely a lot better than what they used to look like according to the old art we had of them (not sure where I saw it, but you guys know the art with the mohawk dude and all that, right?). I mostly like the character art for Origin, but it's a bit disappointing that the wallpapers couldn't have been as cool as the ones for AoN and OiF... all of the Origin ones are just character art on the same background over and over. It likely seems that way because Toba and Fact has been the focus since the first Ys game, as the characters with the most focus were Tobas and the main villain was Dark Fact. |

If I'm not mistaken, the freaky mohawk man is probably Messa... Boy, did that one improve with the gender reassignment.  ;; |

haha... I'd really like the artist's comment on that character art some day... I mean, I just don't get it! Japanese anime is known to get characters insane hair, but why mohawks specifically? It's really just the 3 with the crazy hairdos that bring up questions, really... the other 3 are alright. The one on the far left in both pics is probably the best... it's Fact, isn't it?

Those priests looks like the serious people who make harsh decisions and could sacrifice anything to save Ys. Even the lives of their loved ones.

No surprise, with Origin.
Either way, I need to find a better picture of Fukt, or render that one out and increase the quality.

I find Dark Fact(Fukt) pretty attractive. Why did he have to go all evil??? T_T
Seriously, what happened to make him go bananas???
