Knightcrawler's Zelda 2 Sprite Pack Volume 1 (version 1.01)



Overview:

	This sprite pack contains all of the sprites that I (Knightcrawler) made to support Digshake's Zelda 2 Randomizer. The colors were adjusted with a tool made by Lufia (author of ROMhacks such as "Super Ghouls N Ghosts - Super Arthur"). Of course I love Zelda 2 Randomizer, but I want people to be able to use my sprites for other purposes if they want to.



Contents:

Zelda - The sleeping princess from Zelda II, not the princess who is rescued in Zelda 1 or any other incarnation. Zelda awakens Link.

Ruto - The Zora princess from Ocarina of Time. Ruto awakens Link.

Midna - The impish companion from Twilight Princess. Midna awakens Link.

"Crystalis" - The hero from Crystalis, who has no name. This hero awakens Mesiah.  In the Nintendo-published version of the game for GameBoy Color, he was given the name Simea.

Olympia - The mysterious Ygddroid from Etrian Odyssey III. Olympia awakens Kujura.

Dragonlord - The main villain from the original Dragon Quest. The Dragonlord awakens his wife/mate, who canonically exists but is never seen or described. Therefore, I designed his wife.

Miria - The protagonist from The Guardian Legend/Guardic Gaiden. Miria awakens Zelda because that's the default, and there are no other characters in that game series.

Yoshi - Yoshi from the Mario series. Yoshi rescues Birdo.



Permissions:

	Anyone and everyone has my full permission to use these sprites for any purpose, with the the understanding that I will be properly credited in any works you redistribute. Simple changes to my sprites (such as adding a beard to a character) does not make you the author/artist of these sprites, so please continue to credit me as the primary author/artist. You do not need my permission to redistribute hacks or other projects made with these files. This permission extends beyond hacks; you can make an AngelFire webpage with animated .gifs using these sprites, for all I care. Just as long as you credit me properly.

	Keep in mind that I do not have the authority to give you permission to use the characters; that privilege rests soley with the IP-holders for each character/property. Also, a few frames from the Miria sprite are only slightly modified from the original The Guardian Legend/Guardic Gaiden.



Version History:

Sprite Pack Volume 1 - version 1.01 was compiled on 2022-3-25 (March 26th, 2022). Ah, so I guess I should have tested the files before I inserted them. In 1.00, Zelda and Ruto's colors were incorrect, and Olympia, Miria, and the Dragonlord ONLY had colors, with no sprite. This has been corrected for this version, and I have tested all files. I apologize greatly for the error.

Sprite Pack Volume 1 - version 1.00 was compiled on 2022-1-1 (January 1st, 2022).



Version Pre-History:

The only new sprite made for this pack was Midna. The rest were available for years in Zelda 2 Randomizer, except for Olympia which was missed and as such not included in Z2R.
