Ladies and Gentlemen, in celebration of Eliza's entire basic move set being revealed, I am mildly pleased to announce the WIP Archive entry has received a MASSIVE overhaul to have everything properly identified to make navigation easier and let people know exactly what they are seeing. I concede the order might not be the best... (.__.)
Work is still not over, though. The next part will be to add Wikipedia links to the cultural and mythological ancient Egyptian references that are present in her move set. Help in this part would be welcome.

You are truly doing the lord's work, Balder. <3

I'm liking what i see so far for Eliza. I love playing characters with good normals.

Yeah, Parasoul and Eliza are gonna have some insanely good coverage for each other with how good both of their sets of normals are. :D

So, remember when Persona said Eliza had a DP, and that it was really unique?
I think this is it. I think it might act like A.B.A's key grab, and will transform Eliza into Sekmet on hit or something

I can see that, but to balance it and force players to use the mode wisely there must be a cost. Perhaps that mode eats red life, but returns it if you use the same move to return to Eliza mode; if you run out of red life without connecting with that attack it cancels what ever you're doing and forces you to return to Eliza mode (long recovery frames is a must). It could work very well if she has moves that give her red life (already planned iirc) so it would end up a lot like ABA's command hit-grabs.

Everyone's chipping in. I can't take all the credit. (__)

Poor girl has never been the same since the color change.


Side note, Mike Z mentioned in the latest Salty Update topic that Eliza's stage is named Bath of Tefnut.
Incidentally, the stage has been designed by Willy Hwang, right? I should add it to the art compendium....
 
Oh, man, I didn't see that. I have to see it.

Maybe the animation isn't done yet? It's colored though so i'm unsure.
It's missing the tablet that acts as her shield and a barrier for Sekhmet to push, there'll be different engravings and it looks like they weren't implemented yet.

Her eyes look different in that picture, someone posted a slowmotion video a page or two back of the Salty stream, her eyes look really strange during the animation, the blue in her iris isn't colored in and it makes it look incredibly creepy.
You mean this? Because they do look pretty blank and lifeless.

Edit: Curses beaten

As you can see at this point in the block you can tell she does not like the touchy (if you listen carefully you can hear Eliza think "No this peasant didn't")
Oh shit, I'm actually getting uncomfortable looking at that.
 
Lol, Yeah I thought it would be a cool, "imma whoop yo ass" look but its just plain....creepy fish eyes...maybe that isn't the finished animation...-cough-
 
First thing I thought was cat eyes when I saw them in slow mo. Still creepy though.

Albus! Horace! Didn't I make it abundantly clear that this is a "hands off" show?!
(That glare is soooo directed at them. Or the player...because it's also YOUR fault!)

Anywho, rewatched the stream archive to comb it for the missing unarchived goodies (block and push block) and "caught" this one by accident as I'm kind of a Slowpoke with hitting the PrtScr button. -_-"

Hey you can rip on DDB, but don't rip on Annie. They're all Alex Ahad's babies, he wouldn't like what you're saying.

For the record Eliza is way older than Annie.

This eyes are the Sekmeth ones, no? Maybe is intended, remembering the push block (Sek goes out and Elisa becomes "eyeless")
 
Kinda reminds me of Nemisis's blocking animation in MvC3 where he basically just stands there and shrugs everything off.
 
To me they're representing the full black pupils of the egyptian frescos.

It's a detail I really love.
This character animation is full of culture and gore details, she's a masterpiece by herself.

Yeah, it does look to be intentionally designed to look like those. Guess I just never noticed the semblance until seeing an image side by side with the in-game shot. You're probably right on that one and I agree I kinda like it too honestly. :D

To be honest it's hard to tell exactly how it'll work when it's able to hit opponents since there's no hit boxes applied to it yet.
This is Skullgirls we're talking about, aka the game who used to have such accurate hitboxes they had to change them so combos would work.
Unless you mean properties, then we got no room to speculate.

Yeah, I heard they had to tone down how good they were with the hitboxes.
I think it was Alpha-version though?

That accusation juxtaposed to that confession has left me in a unsurmountable loss for words.
But I will state my disagreement with your estimate of the approximate age her appearance gives. Nadia's 20, Parasoul's 25 and Val's 27 and I sincerely doubt she's meant to look similar agewise to Parasoul, let alone Fortune. I say late 20's at tops.

We'll see when the official profiles are added...maybe by 2018 (I mean, Squigs and Ben don't even have theirs on the site yet).

Squigly recently had her's leaked.

But yeah, with Alex's information of her having a career for 20 years, I think she's definitely meant to be like 36ish? at the earliest if she wants to portray herself accurately.
 
What I thought would be a special ended up being her standing HK. This is looking like my kinda character.
