Hroth Charr sprint

Replaces the forward sprint animation, available for masc and fem Hrothgar!

Heliosphere

(extra WIPs under the cut):

I had been wanting more feral Hrothgar since they were announced... and fell down a rabbithole figuring out animation rigging and such, the biggest thing that made me go "this might be possible" is learning Inverse Kinematics constraints, so from there I took a look at the vanilla Hrothgar M sprint to see if I could modify it to follow the Charr (Guild Wars 2) sprint!

I keyframed most of the movement based on this reference:

without the digitigrade legs and the pronounced, long shoulder bones though, it doesn't quite match up all the way, but I think it looks alright. I might go back to fix some things (notably skirt movement and there's a slight jitter part way), but right now... that's really the first time I've finished an animation cycle, and I'm really proud of how it looks!

here's a bonus gif of Vahris with the run. It's really cool how similar they look to that Charr haha

and here's Vira with it! (Femhroth are super leggy in comparison)
