Now that 0.4's out, time to work on 0.5! *Groan*

Well, maybe not 0.5. Maybe 0.45? I dunno. Basically, I'd like the next content patch to come sooner, but beats me what to number it.

Anyway, this is Priya Nashurma, the valedictorian of Putnam Academy, or whatever it's called, haha (in the original interactive, I ended up calling it 'Solo' High, because it's a generic high school setting). In the original material, she ends up being the central character of a crazy arc spinning out of Jamie's story; it's a beautiful, unfocused mess, lots of mayhem and mass glutton, but lord is it unfocused. And I wrote most of it! This is me trying, again.

While Priya's base sprite design came easy enough (basically a fusion of Nanette's sprite proportions with Jamie's outfit), converting that into a portrait was a STRUGGLE. The second picture has a lot of redundancies (and one very lazy attempt) but I basically made 4 different faces for Priya as I tried to nail her look. And each face (excluding the very Bad one) took more time than I'd care to admit... Because, um, art is hard, especially for a Not Artist like me.

Priya is the last(?) of the pear-type fatties one can recruit. Currently thinking of making her only recruitable if you have Jamie... partly as a reference to her arc origins, partly to give Jamie-runs more content. But I've already written in-game that Phoebe and Priya know each other... Ugh. lol.

Again, the struggle.

That's all for this time!
