The first when the scan models for each character had been selected, as this informed what each Tanta would look like, and the team adjusted the designs to match the models accordingly.

Because they’re two major boss characters, their very essences and virtues are also woven deep in their actions and the types of magic they use.īringing the Tantas to life, from concept art to full 3D models, was no small task, and the art team shepherded each design through three major evolutions. Gold ornamentation is present in both Tantas’ costumes, which represents their magical properties. Despite Tanta Sila and Tanta Prav’s different looks, it was important to the art team that both Tantas sport dresses with unique lines and elegant decorations that are more modern than traditional medieval European attire, bringing in that mix of modern and fantasy elements that run throughout the entire game. Matsuzawa also added, the team envisioned her as being unyielding in her own suppression, so she was given a restraint-like outfit that is a resolute blue. Now she is a callous executioner with a warped sense of justice, trusting only in her own judgment. Being the “Tanta of Justice” who administered Athia’s judicial system before the Break, she judged right from wrong with her uncanny ability to perceive untruths and brought order and peace to Athian society. While Tanta Sila faces her enemies (Frey included) with brute force, our newly unveiled Tanta Prav takes a decidedly different approach. For example, for Tanta Sila, who represents the virtue of strength, Matsuzawa envisioned her dress flailing as she loses herself in battle, so we went with a flamenco dancer-esque dress and an aggressive red color thematically. The color choice for each Tanta was important, too, as we wanted this to signify the corruption of the virtue that each Tanta represents. We have an amazing team of designers at Luminous Productions who worked on each of the Tantas. But, unfortunately, she has now become a cruel despot who trusts nothing but her own skill in battle, mercilessly eliminating any and all who offend her. She fought on the front line, displaying unparalleled prowess in battle, and was revered by the people for it. Tanta Sila is the “Tanta of Strength” who once commanded Athian troops to protect the land from outside threats. The Tantas were a central theme of the game, so it’s not a stretch to say that all the art in Forspoken was designed around them-their virtues and their corruption, their beautiful, yet terrifying, appearances. The art director on Forspoken, Yuuki Matsuzawa, played a critical role in conceiving the concept of the Tantas at the beginning of the project, which has remained consistent throughout development. Nailing the design concept of the Tantas was key to establishing Forspoken’s entire look, feel, and tone. Played by The Walking Dead’s Pollyanna McIntosh, you can see Tanta Prav in action in the latest trailer for Forspoken, which premiered at The Game Awards earlier tonight.
We’re excited to unveil the second and very wicked Tanta who stands in Frey’s way: Tanta Prav. Unfortunately for Frey, there’s no going back home to New York without defeating them first. But after being accused of trespassing on her territory by Tanta Sila, Frey becomes an enemy in their eyes. As the most powerful sorceresses in Athia, they pose a dangerous threat to Frey.īeing who she is, when Frey first arrives in Athia, she has very little interest in the Tantas. However, without warning, the former protectors mysteriously became oppressors, becoming aggressive and hateful. They were once beloved by the people of Athia, who enjoyed lives of plenty under their guidance. Each embodies a different virtue and possesses a unique strength. The Tantas are the former rulers of Athia.
