Chaos Wastes - The Citadel of Eternity
The Citadel is a metaphysical space that doesn't follow the laws of nature.

The very first blockout of the CItadel set. We needed a huge variation in verticality to suspend indoor spaces in mid air.
This allowed us to build nested play spaces at varying sizes.
Module concepts were created for every part of the Citadel set.

I did little animation mockups to show how the Citadel can assemble before the player.
An earlier concept of the Citadel, where it was still intended as a physical place.
The Citadel of Eternity is the culmination of the pilgrimage in VT2: Chaos Wastes. We wanted to create something that's reminiscent of the Arcane Sanctuary from D2 and Anor Londo from Dark Souls. The Citadel is a place of order that resists the warring influence of the Chaos Gods and might offer a path to salvation.
