Background story:
▪ born as a high-technology Halloween product for kids. But a genius engineer adjusted the software and breathed life into this rag doll.
▪ Originally designed to be afraid of sunlight but now is aware of that it doesn't burn her skin.
▪ Can’t drink blood. (Because she's merely a doll.)
I wanted to create a vampire character, and what first came into my mind was a fluffy and smooth image for a 3D model, rather than a common powerful, fearful, alluring vampire. I got to create a background story of why this vampire has a fluffier image and what kind of movement she would have when she gets to act around. That's how she became a Halloween ragdoll, reprogramed by a genius AI engineer.
