In my thesis project, I chose to revisit a character I had created in my Sophomore year here at MECA The bird character I chose to make into a costume is named Po! He is apart of a 3-person adventure group with his two friends Bardana (sassy reptile rogue) and Hikori (Yak-man warrior). Po plays the role of a bard in his group by supporting his friends as they continue their adventures. Po's design is heavily influenced by my own personal interests in mythology (specifically the Tengu Yokai) and more recent interpretations in Dungeons and Dragons Kenku characters.
