legend tells of a mythical guardian that kept watch over the magnificent stone temple of Aütra à oreas. For centuries, the guardian had watched and listened for any sign of attack or infiltration. But alas, as time went on, and the roots of the great oak trees twisted and snaked their way through the aged halls of Aütra à oreas, the vigilant giant slowly fell into a deep sleep. Only a true warrior can awaken the stone golem from his ancient slumber.

There are a few reasons behind this skin. I'll just ratchet them off on this little list:

1: I had been checking out some of Danori's and y a n's skins. 2: I had been reading tutorials on picking colors for pixel art. 3: I wanted a challenge.

So I decided to challenge myself to see if I could make a cool looking skin using a palette of seven colors, and only seven colors. Lo and behold, a few days later, this was created.

Side note: the shading style that I used in this isn't permanent, only for this skin :). Oh, and the "Ã " in "Ã oreas" is pronounced like "ss". The more you know...

Neat idea Knoble, the skin looks great for having so few colors! I was inspired by your challenge and took it upon myself:

Check mine out!

Do I have permission to use this a villager skin texture in an adventure map I'm making? You would be credited, of course.
