(SCAPE) Stock Character/Art Portrait Expansion Project

While I was working to develop a module with my friend some years ago, I spent a couple years scouring the internet for generic portraits to be used for people's player characters in NWN. I wanted people to have more choices in representing their characters which are accessible to more of their fellow players, and so paid great attention to variety, erring on the side of visual quality. The result was a rather fat portrait pack. (503 portraits)

The portraits are organized in bundles by theme and gender. So, first you'll see "common folk" female portraits, then "common folk" male portraits, then "nature folk" female portraits, "nature folk" male portraits, etc. This is so you can skip to the most likely theme for your character and then look only at the desired gender's portraits. I also figured that looking through a huge block of all the male portraits or all the female portraits would be mentally cumbersome.

I always found options for Dwarves, Gnomes/Halflings, ebony-skinned and elderly humans, and Half-orcs to be woefully slim. So, you will find these categories among others. Hopefully that makes some people happy.

Here is an index of the categories, in order of occurrence (alphabetical filename order), with female portraits always coming first:

Civilian (The most general)
+Old (For the advanced in age)
+Ebony

Druidic

Dwarf
Elf

Evil (Not always! But they sure look the part.)

Gnome
Halfling (try to spot the difference)
Half-orc (optionally, full orc.)

Knights (Mostly heavily-armoured noble-looking people, but also the rapier/duelist types.)
Magi
Rogues

Easterners

Warriors

Genasi
Drow
Goblins
Kobolds

Guide to the categories:

Essentially, the categories with class archetype names are likely to have some kind of equipment or other clear tools-of-the-trade, or a pose indicative of that archetype, whereas Civilian portraits focus on simple images of the face, and racial portraits are self-explanatory.

There is the possibility that some of these portraits overlap with some portraits you already have, making them redundant. However, (unlike the massive CCPE, from which this pack partially draws) these are all organized with unique names (with components to the file name to categorize them, e.g. "Enox" "Civ" "f" "Arm" "H" ; Enox [portrait pack prefix], Civ [Civilian, the theme], f [female], Arm [some note characterising that portrait], H [the file's portrait size]. So, the file would be EnoxCivfArmH.TGA . Another example is EnoxDrufFeH.TGA (Enox, Druid, Female, Fe[ather])
