It also serves as a perfect accessory for the dForce Royal Sun Wardrobe and Royal Sun Updo, accordingly, the set also contains suitable material presets in the Royal Sun color scheme.
There are several ways to use the dragon staff. There are 3 types of internal sparkles (single, small group, and a larger group) that can swirl inside the sphere, a smaller group of sparkles can fly around the sphere, or a larger mass of sparkles can even take on the shape of a dragon.
The spirit of the dragon comes to the aid of its wearer in the form of VDB, which can even be sent to the enemy. After the staff reflects on the wearer, it can take on different colors, like the orb, sparkles, or even the spirit of the dragon. To this end, the set contains various presets.
Sparkles can appear mainly in cold, warm, elven, and magical colors, but amber and fire can also be found. Hierarchical material presets help us not have to search and choose what we want to change, but to be able to use the sparks without the staff, there are also separate material presets for changing both the color scheme and the brightness on any of the sparkles (you have to select the sparkle for this).
The spirit of the dragon can also take on the usual, cold, warm, elven, and magical colors, but in addition, the colors amber, azure, fire, scarlet, and turquoise can be found in its repertoire. In addition, the VDB itself can be changed (2 variations) and there are 6 ways to style the emission.
There are 3 sets you can load. The staff itself only. Selecting this, you can apply any of the needed elements, they will be smart-parented to the sphere (orb). There is a set with the Dragon, where the Dragon hugs the Sphere. (the back claw will change its position automatically) And the FULL Set, which includes one of the inner sparkles (small group), the sparkles around the sphere, the dragon sparkles, and the spirit of the dragon itself. (Hide or remove the parts you don't want to use)
7 Hierarchical Material Presets help to change the staff with the dragon, you can also change the handle, the spheres, or the dragon itself as needed.
There are 2 types of the Spheres. One is the "Frosted". This includes an inner glow (Sphere Energy). With this, the inner sparkles are not useful, but there are 9 material presets to change the Energy Strength to make the glow stronger or weaker.
To use the Inner Sparkles the way intended, you have to change the Sphere material to the other style … Sphere for Sparkles (4 options) where the inner glow is turned off and the Sphere itself is more transparent.
To facilitate the use of the staff, there are 6 wearable presets for Genesis 8 Female (Left and Right), Genesis 9 (Left and Right), and because of her stature, Elora Taiyou (Left and Right). The hand poses are also included.
I know that's a lot of information, but don't worry, a reminder is available from the Content Library or Smart Content inside Daz Studio.
