Several years back when Andy wrote the first few scripts for Midieville they looked much different than anything we have on the website. The stories were meant to be full 10-20 minute animated adventures following a trio of creatures sent on quests by the king. Those three adventurers were: Marvin the blue wizard, Gidju the dragon and Xilva the elf. Though when we started making the Midieville shorts they were mostly just a way for us to cut our teeth in animation and served as tests for things we wanted to try out. For logistical reasons, the lovely Xilva was cut from those and we just never found a good story point to add her into the fray... until now.
Now that we're taking the world of Midieville and putting it in our upcoming Nintendo Wii U game, Of Mages & Pages, Xilva has a place in the land of Midieville once more. So, I present to you a peek at one of the oldest and most neglected characters from the 3twins wheelhouse, Xilva the elf. This concept drawing comes from S. LaDon Ware. Xilva will be joining our heroes at some point in the game and finally take her place next to Marvin and Gidju!
