Forget imported sci-fi. I design characters born from our own urban myths, smog, and daily hustle. These are the faces of a new Indian folklore.

A portrait of a Yuntryodhā, a warrior-engineer from the MahaMachinist Nation. I create detailed character designs that fuse mythological aesthetics with sci-fi hardware, perfect for hero characters in games or films.

A female Yuntryodhā, showcasing the powerful and diverse inhabitants of the worlds I build. Her design combines traditional attire with heavy mechanical prosthetics, telling a story of strength and sacrifice.

Another female Yuntryodhā warrior, this time with a different set of augmentations. I develop variations in character design to create a rich and diverse cast for any narrative project.

A Yuntryodhā armed with a futuristic weapon and backpack machinery, ready for exploration or combat. This demonstrates my process for creating fully-equipped characters for action-oriented stories.

A Yuntryodhā with unique, bus-like headgear, showcasing the more surreal and imaginative character concepts I can develop. This kind of design is great for creating memorable, non-player characters (NPCs) in a game world.

A pilgrim in a heavy-duty red ceremonial suit. This design suggests a more industrial or protective function, adding another layer to the story of their pilgrimage.

A female Yuntriksh pilgrim, showing that these roles are not limited by gender in the worlds I create. Her design incorporates both traditional and futuristic elements.

About Characters & Creatures of New Indian Folklore

When I design a character, it is not just about the look; it is about the lore. Whether you need a Rākbhoot for a horror film or a squad of Yuntryodhās for a game concept, I build them with a backstory that fits our specific brand of Indian dystopia. If you have a half-formed idea for a creature that needs to feel real, we should talk.
