Field notes
Preset examples include African Warrior, Yoruba Warrior, Dahomey Warrior, FRSC Officer, and Wasteland Survivor. The page says its character base comes from the CC0 MakeHuman dataset, with 900+ morph targets, 20 photo-based skins, and detail levels from roughly 5,000 to 120,000 triangles. It also identifies a sample third-person shooter set across Ibadan, Abeokuta, and Old Oyo, whose player character it says was made with the tool.
