Agreed....just not denim.

7Seconds, the look is good, though it really needs black denim pants...

Michiko, your date outfit is ~ le swoon!

CanadianLady, I love that outfit!

Because I haven't posted in a while and I got a compliment. Simple. Easy. And it's her..


You see Lunaryna Hallsbreak.
She appears to be a Faendryl Dark Elf.
She is rather petite in size. She has intense, emerald-striated pale grey eyes and flawless ashen skin. She has thigh length, ringleted pale white hair tumbling down her back in a mass of silver-tinged curls and corkscrews.
Her face is concealed by a flawless ivory half-mask.
She has a silver crescent moon tattoo between her eyes surrounded by deep black inked lacework, and a black deathstone stud in her left nostril.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a tiny carved ivory skull stud, a collar of thin triple-tined obsidian plates, an ankle-length white silk dolman, an elegant snow white poet shirt, a back-laced tightly fitted bodice, a hip-slung thin vaalin belt of bloodjewel disks, a plain white linen skirt, and a pair of white leather slippers.


Minus the damn crescent tattoo. Hopefully I'll get that fixed to where the lace-work isn't there anymore.

You see Lady Michiko al'Lunacen.
She appears to be a Half-Sylvan.
She is short in stature and appears to have come of age. She has long-lashed, expressive twilight blue eyes and smooth, creamy skin. She has long, silky raven black hair that flows smoothly down her back, curling at the tips to brush against her hips. She has a finely contoured symmetrical face, an upturned nose and wide hips. She has petite, upswept ears that taper to delicate points.
She is in good shape.
She is holding a pallid silver mirror framed with a twining pattern of eahnor sephwir leaves in her right hand.
She is wearing a brushed ebon suede cavalier hat, a choker of silver-linked alternating green and black kelyn discs, a side-buckled green suede jacket, a long-sleeved white silk blouse, a floral-motif eahnor ring, a pair of flared black leather pants with kelyn beading at the seams, and a pair of tall ankle-strapped dark green leather boots.


Back to hunting gear! It's all been seen before at one point or another.

All Ivas'ed out:

You see Jesae Jiin.
She appears to be a Sylvankind of the Lassaran D'ahranal.
She is shorter than average and appears to be in the bloom of youth. She has vivacious, bronze-sparked olive green eyes and sun-blushed fair skin. She has hip-length, champagne blonde hair that slinks down her back in glossy, sharply kinked waves. She has a delicately sculpted face, an upturned nose and slightly-curved, naturally tinged pink lips.
She has a faint curl of tattooed jade smoke at her nape that rises sinuously up her neck.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a jade-inlaid vivid ruby choker, a cropped black leather jacket with side-slashed sleeves, a high-necked white chiffon tunic embroidered with scarlet knot work along the hem and cuffs, a sleek jade ring, a svelte back-laced cincher of variegated matte and glossy eahnor scales, some slim-cut black linen pants, and a pair of cuffed ebon suede thigh-boots.

Ring and choker are Verrath designs, COLLECT THE WHOLE SET!

>look choke
The choker is crafted from immaculately chiseled rubies, their scarlet hues set ablaze by intricate accents of pale faenor. Dancing across the surface of the rubies like a wildfire are vivid green swirls of jade, each weaving a complex webwork of deeply curved whorls. The frenzied patterns coalesce at the very center of the choker, forming a languid wisp of green smoke that rises up to the very uppermost edge in a lazy, delicate fashion.

look ring
The sleek lines of jade which form the ring's smooth surface betray only a hint of the black jade beneath -- the thin veins corrupting the otherwise pristine, flawless paleness with their shadowy hues. The streaks converge upon a central point, swirling in variegated whorls that form a slightly raised platform within the center. Within the very heart of the ring, encased within the jade, is a pure red ruby swirling within like a wisp of smoke, its facets ablaze with fiery highlights of dazzling beauty.

You see Hadya Kha'Taymullah.
She appears to be a Human of the Tehir tribes.
She is short and appears to be extremely young. She has topaz-flecked dark viridian eyes and copper skin. She has very long, sable hair that falls in a lustrous curtain of thin braids to her thighs. She has a dainty face and a narrow waist. She has a jagged, scale-indented scar across her neck.
She has a tattoo of malachite ophidian tracery encircling her left eye, and an intricate tattooed malachite pattern that covers the back of her hands.
She is in good shape.
She is holding a round copper mirror framed with black lacquered poppies in her right hand.
She is wearing a copper-beaded linen headscarf, a deeply hooded pale raw silk burnoose swept with coppery tones, a scale-etched heavy bronze armband, a sleeveless tunic of mottled brown raw silk, a slender copper scaled corselet, a copper-swept bone bangle, a bronze-framed polished birch kit, some loose pale linen pants, and some intricate leather hide sandals.

l armband
A sinuous pattern of scales has been etched along the outer surface of the ancient bronze armband. Arcane runes and small snake sigils are worked into the armband at the edges of the scale pattern. A single emerald glimmers from the armband's back.

The armband is a gift from Lunaryna and Hadya loves it.

She isn't wearing her veil for a reason, today.

His face is concealed by a narrow-eyed expressionless facemask.
He is in good shape.
He is holding a cracked leather tome embossed with a golden crown in his right hand.
He is wearing an ebonwood silver-veined locket, a silver rune-embroidered black silk half-cape, a silver-framed crest marked with a scarlet pentacle on a field of grey, some deeply hooded silk robes, a high-collared indigo and silver bourde tunic, a thrice-wrapped cord of plaited lizard skin, a silver-laced rich ebony sash, some elegant ebon silk trousers streaked with silver threads, and a pair of black leather sandals.

Went for a very traditional look today.

You see Nilandia Liserna the Historian.
She appears to be a Sylvankind.
She is tall and appears to be youthful. She has softly sparkling, gold-flecked forest green eyes and smooth, creamy white skin. She has very long, golden-highlighted sunset red hair divided into two pairs of two tresses each, wrapped elaborately together with silk ribbons. She has a gentle and delicate face, a slender nose and slightly upswept ears that taper into fine points. She has slender hands with long, soft fingers and gently curving rose-red lips.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a delicately carved modwir talisman, a transparent silk gauze overrobe, a forest green silk bliaut accented with silvery arctic fox fur, a soft doeskin bracelet adorned with delicate ivory beads, and some leaf-hued raw silk slippers.

Talisman: An unfurling scroll is skillfully carved into the surface of a small disk of fine-grained modwir and painted gold, its form curling around the edge of the disk to form a border. At the center, five rings link together, each painted a different color: red, green, blue, black and white. On the reverse, a hawk is captured in flight, its beak turned to the heavens in a silent scream. Engraved into the rim of the disk in flowing script are the words, "Only with wisdom to sing to the stars."

Overrobe: Delicately shimmering silk strands have been woven loosely into the fine, nearly transparent gauze which comprises this light and airy garment. The fluidity of the fabric allows the robe to mold the wearer's silhouette, and when the material is in motion, it creates an illusion akin to the appearance of softly falling rain.

Slippers: Mimicking the hue of windblown leaves on water, the fine silk of these slippers is faintly iridescent in nature. A silvery sheen blends with the leaf-green hue to give it a soft quality, further enhanced by the thin argent threads used to create a gently swirling pattern across the fabric.

I'm not sure I've ever posted the bardess, but here she is in all her colourful and exuberant glory.

You see Cappyn Varra the Bard Laureate.
She appears to be an Illistim Elf.
She is tall and appears to be very young. She has captivating, thick-lashed pearly grey eyes and slightly blushing, silky soft skin. She has hip-length, tousled chestnut hair loosely tied back at the neck with a golden ribbon. Three thin braids threaded with amber beads rest freely on her shoulder, while her overly long and unruly bangs fall precariously close to her eyes. She has soft, wine-hued lips with a natural, delicate curve.
She has an amber sunflower tattoo on her ankle, and a thin gold bar in her right eyebrow.
She is in good shape.
She is holding a polished golden oak lute inlaid with deep golden topaz stones in her left hand.
She is wearing a brilliant yellow sunflower tucked behind one ear, a gold-etched instrument case, a multicolored patchwork silk coat lined with scarlet silk, a low-cut scarlet leather half-bodice laced with ivory beaded ribbons, an elegant gold thumb ring, an amber and gold charm bracelet, a gold-corded silken coin purse, a pair of trim ivory leather pants, and some heeled scarlet half-boots.

>l tattoo
Varying shades of amber color the center of the sunflower. The amber hues lighten from center to pale white at the edge of the petals, which curve around the ankle. An ivy green stem sprouts from the bottom of the sunflower and wraps around the ankle creating a band. A pollen-coated honey bee rests on one of the petals.

She is in good shape.
She is holding a round copper mirror framed with black lacquered poppies in her right hand.
She is wearing a smoky velvet burnoose draped in thick pleats, a light grey wool tunic with a wide side-slit hem, a slender copper scaled corselet, a copper-swept bone bangle, a bronze-framed polished birch kit, some layered loose cotton skirts, some black and grey linen leg-wraps, and a pair of black leather sandals.

So, bodysuit dispute aside, I went ahead and dressed the dhe'nar anyway:

You see XXX.
She appears to be a Dhe'nar Dark Elf.
She is tall and appears to be in the bloom of youth. She has tilted dark lavender eyes and ebon skin. She has hip-length, lustrous pewter-toned hair tightly braided with clusters of tiny obsidian beads that weigh heavily against her back. She has an angular face, a small nose and sharply-curved pointed ears.
She has a silver-chased deep ebony bar in the upper ridge of her right ear.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a silver-bound ebony leather harness, a loose ebony pelisson with flowing sleeves, a silver-caged luna moth pendant, some close-cut silvered ebon leathers, a striated wide silver wrist cuff, an entwined obsidian band, and a pair of ebony thigh-high boots with malachite-veined heels.

>l pendant (FWI transport item)
Strung on a delicate silver chain, and enclosed within a spherical cage of cleverly contorted filigree, is a fragile luna moth wrought from the finest faenor. Natural veins of darker green and grey sweep across the verdant wings of this beautifully crafted insect, the metal beaten so thin as to be almost translucent. The slightest movement causes the moth to tumble within its silvery cell as if fluttering in protest of its incarceration; the metals chiming softly against each other to raise the alarm.

>l leathers (designed by Martaigne)
Supple ebon leather, burnished unevenly with lustrous metallic dye, presents the illusion of tarnished silver as the base material for this suit of armor, tailored to fit like a second skin. A high collar, clasped with a carved malachite luna moth dangling from a silver chain, closely guards the neck like an attentive lover. Adjustable cross-lacing runs through silver eyelets down to the small of the back with no other buckles or lacing visible to the eye, relying on clean lines for aesthetics. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.

>l cuff (a token gesture towards Mularos)
At first glance the wide band of silver seems to be an innocuous piece of jewelry. Veins of malachite and jet-black obsidian have been inlaid into the smooth surface, adding artistic streaks of intrinsic darkness which hint at the more underlying sinister aspects of the cuff. Lining the interior are rows of tiny vicious inward barbs, each configured so as to leave the impression on the skin of having worn a thorny vine.
The cuff bears a small circular slot which looks like it would fit a gold ring.

Nilandia

New look for today! Nilandia's becoming more and more influenced by traditional Sylvan fashion lately, but it's been a lot of fun.

You see Nilandia Liserna the Historian.
She appears to be a Sylvankind.
She is tall and appears to be youthful. She has softly sparkling, gold-flecked forest green eyes and smooth, creamy white skin. She has long, golden-highlighted, sunset red hair that has a slender braid at the temple adorned with an amber-banded copper hawk feather faintly sheened with gold. She has a gentle and delicate face, a slender nose and slightly upswept ears that taper into fine points. She has slender hands with long, soft fingers and gently curving rose-red lips.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a gold-veined crystal modwir leaf, a flowing amber marbrinus cloak traced with bronze veins, a low-cut copper satin bliaut with long bell-shaped sleeves, and a pair of bronze silk slippers with sharply pointed toes.

Leaf: Rendered in precise detail, a fine crystal pendant cast as a modwir leaf falls from a hair-thin strand of silk, nearly invisible to the eye. The flawless crystal encases a webwork of warm gold veins, the leaf's skeleton closely resembling intricate filigree gleaming from within pure ice.

You see Meureii the Squire.
He appears to be a Half-Krolvin of the Rafi'kaes Klinast.
He is average height and appears to be very young. He has haggard stormy green eyes and sallow skin. He has raggedly cut, silvery-hued hair that is tied back with a simple black cloth, creating a solitary bundle of hair that falls down to mid back. He has a bony face, a long nose and a long scar across his left eyebrow. He has bluish grey undertones shadowing his angular countenance.
He has a regal gryphon with graceful outstretched wings and sharp looking claws tattooed on his neck.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing a pure argent armet padded with dark murray dyed miniver, a silver gryphon talisman, a tufted miniver-trimmed siglatoun mantle backed with argent sendal, an argent baudkins doublet hached with metallic threads, a gold-trimmed xenium scabbard, a sanguine siglatoun kilt with a dark murray corse of silk girdle, and some sable chamois leather botews front-laced and tipped with pure silver agelettes.

Talisman show: The image of a gryphon takes up the whole of the piece. The wings of the mighty bird are outstretched wide and the head is cast upward in a gallant pose. Caught in the talons of the avian creature are a series of rubies and a small, silver sword.

Gotta keep a few things in mind with this being a text game.

Accurately wording things can be good. Correct terminology, placement, materiels, etc.

Using words that just look wrong (siglatoun, baudkins, botews ) just make most people skip over you when somethinga little more easier on the eyes could have worked just as well.

No one is picking them apart. They are good, what I would say is, wearing so many obscure termed items that everyday people are not going to know, is in fact probably going to make them skip over you. I would suggest one or two uniquely phrased items per outfit, that's what I do...because then said item stands out.

I honestly think you were looking to get responses such as, "Oooh, that's neat, i've never seen one of those before!" I'm sorry if you didn't get what you were looking for, but no one was telling you that your items were wrong. They were merely telling you that when you use such obscure words that 99% of the population will need to look up to understand, it's not worth it because people will NOT go look them up. They'll skip over you and look at one of the million other people with alterations. And honestly, if you aren't dressing up to show off your outfit, then what's the point? You may as well hang out in your bedroom alone and strut in front of the full-length mirror for your own enjoyment.

I'm posting Aihan, since rarely is he seen in his more formal sylvan clothing:

You see Aihan Tha'enaketh the Pathfinder.
He appears to be a Sylvankind of the Lassaran D'ahranal.
He is taller than average and appears to be in the spring of life. He has silver-mottled, stormy blue-grey eyes and tanned skin. He has very long, tousled sandy blonde hair that has a slender braid at the temple adorned with a suede-wrapped grey goshawk feather. He has an angular face, a thin nose and long pointed ears.
He has a primitive spiral tattoo on his wrist.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing a petrified faewood torc set with a golden hawk-shaped amber, a variegated grey chainsil tunic, a sun-streaked braided leather satchel, some pleated grey chainsil pants, and some thin soled doeskin moccasins.



You look closely at Aihan, examining a variegated grey chainsil tunic. Tailored in a loose thigh-length cut, this chainsil tunic follows a traditional sylvisterai style with a keyhole neck and wide, flaring sleeves. Cinereous threads make up the warp, while smoky blue threads form the weft, woven into variegated hues of grey that become darker as they reach the crisp folds pleated around the hemline. An embellishment of exquisitely embroidered feathers falls from the left shoulder in a sporadic pattern, as if they were stirred by the wind and held firm with ebon threads.

You look closely at Aihan, examining some pleated grey chainsil pants. Dark as stormclouds at the waist, the grey cloth of these chainsil pants fades to the lighter grey of fog and mist at the hemline. Twisting verdant threads climb the folds of the fabric in delicately embroidered blades of grass, symbolically joining the elements of sky and earth.

You look closely at Aihan, examining some thin soled doeskin moccasins. Side-laced with sturdy hide cords, the thin soles of these sylvan moccasins are made to allow the wearer to feel subtle variations in the ground, allowing for better footing.

She has long, silky raven black hair that has a slender braid at the temple adorned with a suede-wrapped silver hawk feather. She has a finely contoured symmetrical face, an upturned nose and wide hips. She has petite, upswept ears that taper to delicate points.
She has a cluster of sleek eahnor rings in the ridges of both her ears.
She is in good shape.
She is holding a pallid silver mirror framed with a twining pattern of eahnor sephwir leaves in her right hand.
She is wearing a choker of feather-etched ivory and mistwood tiles, a silvery organza sylvan surcote, a gauzy emerald chainsil bliaut with knotted hanging sleeves, a collection of pale mistwood bracelets gathered by a loop of chainsil, a floral-motif eahnor ring, and a pair of supple silver kidskin slippers with narrow toes.


It's all been seen before at one point or another, I'm sure. But I LOVE that the off-the-shelf choker goes awesomely with her altered mistwood stuff. :D

He is taller than average and appears to be in the prime of life. He has keen, argent-haloed cobalt blue eyes and fair skin. He has jaw length, pale sandy blonde hair that has a slender braid at the temple adorned with a tertiary silver hawk feather. He has high cheekbones.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing a mist grey ora disk on a thin leather cord, an elegantly tailored dark grey velvet longcoat, an open-necked smoke grey linen tunic, an onyx-inlaid ora band, some obsidian marbrinus trousers veined with silver streaks, and a pair of polished dusky leather boots with silver toes.

As the original comment about the obscurity of correct terms, I wanted to say that I wasn't trying to pick apart your alters. Although that IS something you should expect on these boards if you didn't already.

Mostly it was just a comment on an issue that all fashionistas have had to deal with at one point or another. Do we choose what is correct or what is understandable by the greater percentage of the population? Even then, what is understandable isn't always wrong.

Really, it comes down to whether or not one made the alteration to be seen. If they're court clothes, I would guess that's a yes. When you want to be seen with a certain item, in certain clothes, with a certain look, you need to be sure that those who look will understand. Otherwise, it will give the point a complete miss.

For myself, when I was playing, I picked a middle ground. I picked words that I knew the other fashionistas (who pretty much all post on here) would understand even if the rest of the population with their boots on their hands wouldn't.

The words you chose aren't readily understandable to even most of the people who make it their business to dress correctly and well. Even I had to look up botews and siglatoun. Most won't put forth that effort and it's something all of those who care just have to accept, eventually.

This is not meant to be mean, as so much else can be on these forums. It is meant to help. No, you didn't ask for it. I offered.

She appears to be a Faendryl Dark Elf.
She is rather petite in size and appears to be in the spring of life. She has impassive, slate-ringed fog grey eyes and flawless ashen skin. She has thigh length, straight pale white hair loosely styled with a set of carved bloodjewel hairpins scattered throughout. She has an aristocratic face accented by dark cerise-tinted full lips, and a series of harsh white scars marring her forearms.
She has a silver crescent moon tattoo between her eyes surrounded by deep black inked lacework, and a black deathstone stud in her left nostril.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a pair of wire-framed spectacles, a fur-lined sanguine silk pelisse, an inlaid obsidian skull symbol, a trailing obsidian silk kirtle swept with sanguine hues on the long layered sleeves, a dainty raven faille reticule, an onyx-beaded urnon chainlink handflower, a hip-slung thin vaalin belt of bloodjewel discs, a pair of sheer thigh-high silk stockings with a lace border, and some delicately pointed black leather poulaines.


Hairpins : Spun silver pins are topped with deep sanguine bloodjewels, each perfectly carved into the shape of a skull. At the tips of each pin are small obsidian caps to prevent harm when worn, and delicate thorn designs trace down the posts in a sinuous pattern.

Symbol (4winds transporter) : Wrought from a piece of brushed silver, the symbol is plain in its design of a cracked skull. Inlaid into the forehead is a single piece of carefully carved obsidian, running from the top rim to between the eye sockets. On the reverse side silver is swirled over the image of winged dark elven woman. Elegant script is engraved along the outer rim of the backside, in a circle around the depiction.
In the Common language, it reads:
For Him I serve.

Pelisse : Crafted of dark sanguine silk swirled with veins of twilight hues, the pelisse falls in such a way as to rest below the hips of the wearer. Lining the interior of the hood and down the front is deep black fox fur, accented with flourishing silver embroidered thorned vines along the hem and hood. Small obsidian buttons fasten the garment down the left side, each etched with the image of the crest of House Faendryl.

*Still working on fixing the features, but eh.. It's getting there.

Speaking to Treeva, Selandrine asks, "You want me to take the padding out of your corset?"
Selandrine chortles.
Speaking to Treeva, Selandrine asks, "Reached puberty, then?"
Speaking in Elven to Selandrine, Treeva asks, "You dont think anyone will notice a bit less in the way of curves do you?"

Selandrine removes some balled up tissue from the corset and tosses it behind the lectern.

You see Lady Michiko al'Lunacen.
She appears to be a Half-Sylvan.
She is short in stature and appears to have come of age. She has long-lashed, expressive twilight blue eyes and smooth, creamy skin. She has long, silky raven black hair loosely styled with some silver-set amethyst hairjewels scattered throughout. She has a finely contoured symmetrical face, an upturned nose and wide hips. She has petite, upswept ears that taper to delicate points.
She has a cluster of sleek eahnor rings in the ridges of both her ears.
She is in good shape.
She is holding a pallid silver mirror framed with a twining pattern of eahnor sephwir leaves in her right hand.
She is wearing a thin black velvet choker, a silver-pinned black silk cloak, a royal purple silk corset, a silver bracelet strung with a fall of tiny crystal stars, a floral-motif eahnor ring, a black taffeta skirt with tints of rich purple in its pleats, and some low-heeled ebon silk slippers.


It's all been seen before relatively recently, but I :heart: the hairjewels and choker especially.


Hairjewels: Several dark, deep purple prismatic spears radiate outward from a central point in each hairjewel to form this crown-like collection of amethyst crystals. Each spear shows the deepest color in its interior, fading gradually to clear crystal on the outer edges. A setting of silver encases the jewels, with delicate braided strands of silver connecting each one to create a web-like appearance over the hair when worn.

Choker: The choker is nothing more than a thumb-wide piece of black velvet designed to be worn snugly around the neck. A single silver hook and eye closure adorns the back, the muted silver nearly disappearing in the embrace of the plush fabric.

He is shorter than average and appears to be time-worn. He has piercing ice blue eyes and fair skin. He has long, flowing silver hair tied back in a ponytail with sweeping bangs that fall over his left eye. He has slightly pointed ears.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing a deep black leather manteau with scarlet silk lining, some flowing black silk robes embroidered with falling cherry blossom petals, a raven black silk sash, a pair of billowy black pants, and some black leather boots with scarlet silk lining.

Sash: You see a raven black silk sash made of fine silk and decorated with masterful skill. Wound securely within lengths of the sash and positioned to be worn on the left hip, you see two fine scabbards set together. The first, a richly engraved dark lacquered scabbard, is set slightly forward and lower than the second, a gold-inlaid dark lacquered scabbard. Both are angled for a quick draw in combat.

Thanks! I'm not extremely thrilled about "billowy" either, but not many of my other pants fit that kind of look (and I'm content with it for now). But I also didn't think many people would take notice of the gold, since it's in a show, so I stayed kind of one dimensional with the shades of red (from the scarlet and cherry blossoms).

A slight wardrobe change, due to their getting wet in the penguin pool/slide in Icemule... and then a ring trade-off, for reasons yet unknown on her end!

Ring: Elegantly wrought of a luxurious blue imflass, this signet ring bears the precise markings of expert craftsmanship. The richly appointed band is molded to resemble two wings coming together at a stone of pure faenor. Etched into the faenor itself is the crest of the family Ranshai: A raven perched within a crescent moon, its head tilted as it gazes into the distance.

hi

You see Yaps Snappy the Hoodlum.
He appears to be a Malghava Halfling.
He appears to be young. He has sleepy green eyes and freckled skin. He has raggedly cut, unkempt dark brown hair.
He is holding a halfling-sized threshing flail in his right hand.
He is wearing a rusty bucket helmet, a blue silk neckpouch embroidered with a halfling gardener clenching a shovel, a halfling-fitted blue cloak splattered with specks of mud, a tiny wooden trowel pin spattered with dirt, an extra small pair of mud-caked gardening gloves, some small mud-stained coveralls, an extremely blunt shovel, a vultite-link halfling chain shirt, and a small rusted watering can.

>look threshing
On closer inspection, the flail appears to have spent a lot of time engaged in battle and weathering the elements. Encrusted with dried soil, you can barely make out the hilt's engraving, the letters "H.D.S." You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.

>look helmet
Dented in numerous places, this rusty bucket is in such poor shape that it is doubtful it could even be used to carry water, sod, or seed. It appears that someone has gone to great pains to instead make it function as a helm. The front has been cut away to accomodate a hinged visor, which appears to be crafted from old gardening spades, with two slotted openings to allow the wearer to see. The bucket's rope handle has been cut at its midpoint and fastened with a rusty iron buckle. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.

>look coveralls
With mud plastered wholesale across these diminutive coveralls, they are certainly in an advanced state of disarray. Some unintelligible words can barely be discerned through the muck, stenciled across the bib and apparently reading, "Y-ps Snap-y" along with the letters "H.D.S.". A patch -- shaped like a shovel -- has been sewn onto the breast pocket.

>look shovel
This shovel appears to have seen better days. The scoop has a large fissure running down its length and looks as if it could break off at any moment. The slender maoral handle is severely cracked and splintered, further attesting to its misuse and poor care. A leather strap is attached to each end of the handle, allowing it to be slung over one's shoulder.

>look can
Signs of neglect and abuse are evident on this small watering can. The bottom of the container is coated with gooey brown sludge, while flakes of rust peel from the body and spout. Slopped crudely on the side of the can, in thick black paint are the words, "Yaps Snappy."

The delicate band is formed of pure crimson eahnor and features a solitary, flawless round-cut swirling aetherstone caged in tendrils of eahnor filigree. Barely noticeable as it encircles the exterior of the ring are a series of etched wave-like runic elven sigils.

A change from the black and green she's been sporting lately...

You see Lady Michiko al'Lunacen.
She appears to be a Half-Sylvan.
She is short in stature and appears to have come of age. She has long-lashed, expressive twilight blue eyes and smooth, creamy skin. She has long, silky raven black hair that flows smoothly down her back, curling at the tips to brush against her hips. She has a finely contoured symmetrical face, an upturned nose and wide hips. She has petite, upswept ears that taper to delicate points.
She has a series of intricately etched slender silver rings in the ridges of both her ears.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a wide silver choker inset with star-shaped sapphires, a high-collared deep blue silk cloak, a cowl-necked cobalt silk tunic with long flowing sleeves, a mosaic-inlaid thick silver cuff, a floral-motif eahnor ring, a pair of snug ivory leather leggings open-laced down the sides, and a pair of slim cobalt leather half-boots.


Cloak: Fashioned from deep blue matte silk, the fabric of this cloak falls in graceful folds to a three-quarters' length. A trio of slender silver chains clasps the high collar, fastened together with a rose-cut sapphire brooch.

Cuff: The heavy cuff is sectioned into four jeweled scenes. The first is a spider formed of garnet shards, nestled within a web of silvery veniom. The next features slivers of tigerfang crystal resembling a clenched fist, edged with sanguine eahnor. Strips of near-translucent onyx create the hazy image of a figure in shadow against the backdrop of silver for the third scene, and the final segment holds tiles of green jade inset into a lifelike raven, its head tilted as if gazing into the distance.

Ring: Endowed with a twilight-lavender hue, a princess-cut shimmarglin sapphire sits in the central fitting of the eahnor band, its surface carefully etched with a fully bloomed stargazer lily. Cradling the gem in a gentle embrace, a thin inlay of shaded imflass foil is molded to resemble a bed of pale pink roses. An alternating series of tiny ivory honeysuckles and aubergine violets are engraved along the length of the band, creating a pair of twisting floral chains.
There appears to be something written on it.
In the Sylvankind language, it reads:
Yesterday is gone. Today is eternal.

Boots: Faint silver tracery adorns the fine cobalt leather of the half-boots, swirling upwards in delicate whorls from the sole towards the ankle. The short rounded silver heels are slightly tapered, adding a touch of feminine grace to the footwear.

>l coat
Formed from thick beige wool, the style of this coat features a high collar and waist-length bottom hem. Austere, and yet tailored to taper inwards at the waist to better suit a female form, the coat fastens down the right side with a line of smooth glimaerstone cabochon buttons. Lining the inside of the coat is layered silk dyed a dark brown.

>l neck
Beautiful tiny black pearls gleam vibrantly and reflect a rich golden hue when tilted toward the light. Perfectly round and flawless, the pearls are strung together tightly with thin silk black thread. The necklace consists of four tiers, each one falling at different lengths down the collarbone. The last tier gathers together at each side to hold an elliptical piece of carved black moonstone.
The necklace bears a small circular slot fitted with a scratched gold ring, which is encircled by a slender dial bearing five peculiar runes.

She is very tall and appears to be youthful. She has slanted, feral ebon-traced viridian eyes and soft, ashen-toned, impeccably blanched skin. She has long, pearlescent white hair pulled back from her face in a finely-woven braid, leaving the rest to spill gracefully down her back in a curtain of radiant iridescence. She has an angular face, a straight nose and high cheekbones accentuated by sharply contoured, upswept ears. She has full, naturally incarnadine tinged lips.
She has a delicate elven crest tattoo on her thigh.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a star-carved alabaster ferroniere strung from a trio of platinum chains, a softly flared robe of tone-on-tone cream bourde lined with ermine, a sleek high-collared gown of ivory viper skin with a plunging keyhole neckline, a series of carved alabaster and dark heliodor bangles, a platinum signet ring, a hip-slung girdle of polished alabaster disks, and a pair of sharply heeled albino viper skin sandals.

Nilandia's current hunting outfit.

You see Nilandia Liserna the Historian.
She appears to be a Sylvankind.
She is tall and appears to be youthful. She has softly sparkling, gold-flecked forest green eyes and smooth, creamy white skin. She has long, golden-highlighted, sunset red hair that has a slender braid at the temple adorned with an amber-banded copper hawk feather faintly sheened with gold. She has a gentle and delicate face, a slender nose and slightly upswept ears that taper into fine points. She has slender hands with long, soft fingers and gently curving rose-red lips.
She is in good shape.
She is holding a silver-capped faewood runestaff in her right hand.
She is wearing a delicately carved modwir talisman, a hooded green spidersilk cloak with subtly-hued embroidery swirling along the hem, a fur-trimmed tan leather satchel, a loose dark green silk tunic with a square neckline, a soft doeskin bracelet adorned with delicate ivory beads, some wide-legged flowing chainsil pants and a pair of emerald leather boots trimmed with lustrous mink.

Talisman (altered giftbox item): An unfurling scroll is skillfully carved into the surface of a small disk of fine-grained modwir and painted gold, its form curling around the edge of the disk to form a border. At the center, five rings link together, each painted a different color: red, green, blue, black and white. On the reverse, a hawk is captured in flight, its beak turned to the heavens in a silent scream. Engraved into the rim of the disk in flowing script are the words, "Only with wisdom to sing to the stars."

Satchel (for holding healing props): Supple panels of a light tan doeskin form the front and sides of this wide satchel, looped and sewn with precision craftsmanship into a series of many small compartments around the edge. A glistening smoky umber swathe of fur serves as the flap, the grain of the fine hair arcing perfectly in symmetry with the design. Dangling from the corner compartment, a slender length of acantha stem pokes through the stitching.

Runestaff: Doeskin wraps several times around the staff, forming an intricate braid pattern to serve as the grip. Sinuous rivers of thin silver inlay run along the wood, slightly shimmering when light strikes it. Capping the staff is a silver disk inlaid with a ring of five stones of different color. The silver of the disk melds with the silver along the staff, as if it were the source of the rivers of silver inlay.

I made the boots myself using materials from the 2006 EG. The bracelet is an amulet holder.

If she needs to wear armor, she wears a bodysuit of subtly shaded leathers: Verdant silk laces spiraling down the back draw the leather tightly about the voluptuous curves of the feminine form, highlighted by sinuous gold and silver tracery. Numerous faint green hues slide into each other, creating a soft variegation to mimic the play of light within a forest at day.

Oh, and btw:

You are wearing a trio of thin opalescent vaalin rings in the ridges of both her ears and some tattooed stylized wings.

I'm sad it doesn't say nothing special!

Eh, might as well show the tattoo, since no one ever sees it: Jagged black lines sweep across Michiko's back, spanning her shoulderblades and coalescing into stylized wings. Vibrant scarlet and orange hues tease at the feathered edges, providing a stark, burning contrast against her creamy skin.

My Imperial all gussied up for the ball

She appears to be a Human from Honneland.
She is average height and appears to be very young. She has large pale grey eyes and powdered, alabaster skin. She has long, opalescent white hair twisted into an elegant coronet save for a few tresses that spill to the hips. She has a heart-shaped face and a button nose.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a slender wing-etched white gold circlet, a choker of feather-etched ivory and mistwood tiles, a pure white samite gown beaded with crystal in feathery swirls, an elegant diamond-clasped handbag, and some lustrous ivory silk slippers.

Hair is an altered wig, the gownis a nalea the rest is off the shelf.

I love, love, love that Nalea. It's so pretty in its simplicity.
Here's Michi's ball outfit! Jaysehn had the gown made for her during the Winterfest caravan to go with the original eahnor ring.


You see Lady Michiko al'Lunacen.
She appears to be a Half-Sylvan.
She is short in stature and appears to have come of age. She has long-lashed, expressive twilight blue eyes and smooth, creamy skin. She has long, silky raven black hair arranged in an intricately twisted roll at the back of her head and held in place by some glimmering ruby rose hairjewels. She has a finely contoured symmetrical face, an upturned nose and wide hips. She has petite, upswept ears that taper to delicate points.
She has a cluster of sleek eahnor rings in the ridges of both her ears.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing an onyx and ruby-beaded choker, a high-waisted ebon damask gown patterned with raised eahnor-trimmed rosebuds upon the trailing skirts, a floral-motif eahnor ring, and some low-heeled ebon silk slippers.


Hairjewels: Tiny faceted rubies secured with needle-thin silver clips comprise this set of hairjewels. The rubies have been cunningly cut into rose-shapes, though each blossom appears to be in a different stage of life. An examination of all the jewels reveals everything from a tiny rosebud to a rose in full, resplendent bloom.

Slippers: Lengths of ebon silk crisscross over the top of the slippers to the sole then extend to wrap around the back of the wearer's foot. A trio of rose-cut rubies clasp each slipper at the ankle and the delicate soles give way to subtle silver heels.
There appears to be something written on it.
In the Common language, it reads:
A step above. ~Dreltin.

I just pretend the writing is on the soles, otherwise I think they would look silly with writing on them!

Everyone is looking so pretty. Here is Ahma's outfit for tonight:

You see Ahmarante Angrave.
She appears to be a Human from Honneland.
She is average height and appears to be in the bloom of youth. She has refulgent hematite-hued eyes and fair skin. She has shoulder length, glossy brunette hair drawn back from her face and bound in place by a lustrous silver filigree diadem set with an intense red triskelion-cut bloodjewel. She has an angular face, an upturned nose and thin eyebrows.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a tall ornately laced collar, an amaranth dupioni overgown with half-split floor length sleeves, an ebon kirtle laced with crimson silk ribbons, an intricately woven wrist-cuff of coiled black silk ribbons and amaranth, and some slender low-heeled ebon silk slippers.


J>look collar
Glossy ebon silk ribbons flow through the ornate corset style lacing adorning the front of this fanciful neckpiece, which by its proportions is meant to embrace a slender throat. Tiny glimmering bloodjewels decorate a network of gossamer-fine ebon webbing. A series of upright, evenly spaced silver splines provide support for the decorative weave held betwixt them. Droplet shaped gems of the deepest sanguine hue trail from the end of each ribbon.

Definitely agree. Lots of people dressed so well.

Here's Nilandia from tonight, dressed in snowy white with electrum accents. (Yay electrum!)

You see Nilandia Liserna the Historian.
She appears to be a Sylvankind.
She is tall and appears to be youthful. She has softly sparkling, gold-flecked forest green eyes and smooth, creamy white skin. She has long, golden-highlighted, sunset red hair drawn back from her face and bound in place by a spiraled electrum circlet set with an orb of crystal clear sapphire. She has a gentle and delicate face, a slender nose and slightly upswept ears that taper into fine points. She has slender hands with long, soft fingers and gently curving rose-red lips.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a long spiraling chain of electrum links, a pure white satin silk pelisson lined with snowcat fur, a frosted white sideless gown of layered silk satin, a gauzy bright white cotehardie, a diagonally hip-slung belt of electrum links, and a pair of pearl dupioni silk pointy-toed slippers.

Back to the safety of the guild and alchemy given the current Grimswarm disruption, so decided to change her out of her usual day-to-day Priestessly garb.

You see High Lady Rohese Bayvel-Timsh'l the Priestess.
She appears to be an Illistim Elf.
She is taller than average and appears to be of a tender age. She has silver-lashed misty grey eyes and silky smooth, fair skin. She has lustrous, hip-length silver blonde hair bound into a twisted infinity knot by some twisted platinum hairsticks. She has naturally glossy, rose-pink tinted lips. She has refined, youthful features enhanced by a flawless complexion and a pair of dainty pointed ears peeking through her hair.
She has a cascade of tiny silver stars tattooed over her right eyebrow that fades into her hairline, a ring of silver stars tattoo on her neck, and a tattooed symbol of Lumnis on her ankle.
She is in good shape.
She is holding an ancient black leather tome in her left hand.
She is wearing a tufted pale grey rabbit fur mantle backed in charcoal satin, an elegant choker of silver-linked discs of pure onyx, a platinum-girdled twilight blue chainsil bliaut, a drawstring grey satin purse wrapped in onyx lace, a platinum wedding ring, and some open-backed pale grey silk sandals with slender mistwood heels.

>l tome (supposedly once belonged to her father)
This weighty tome has clearly seen boundless years of use, yet weathered the test of time. The words "The Bayvel Codex: An Indepth Study of Alchemy Formulae" can still be made out in a fine script along the cracked spine, whilst the once vibrant silver stitching binding the front and back covers is now faded and frayed. A myriad of thin, brightly colored ribbons protrude from the top of the fragile, white vellum pages, serving as page markers for what must be considered particularly significant notations.

Thank god for playershops. Just had the seer-stone done and needed an outfit to match.

You see Jiarine.
She appears to be a Nalfein Elf.
She is shorter than average and appears to be immature. She has thick-lashed brilliant cyan eyes and alabaster skin. She has chin length, silky coal black hair with longer layers of fiery gold and umber framing her face. She has sharp pointed ears.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a twin-stranded red gold seer-stone dangling a molten red fire agate cabochon, a luxurious golden fox fur collar adorned with a jeweled pin, a supple russet suede longcoat cut to flare at the hips, a gold-trimmed tawny silk tunic, some fluid tawny raw silk pants, and some ankle-tied brown suede sandals.

I hate gold, myself. So I never make any of my chars wear it. However, I buy shit at festivals that are gold so I might as well put it to use.

Everything is off the shelf save for the robes, and the talisman and ring, which Aetheri designed.

You see Jesae Jiin.
She appears to be a Sylvankind of the Lassaran D'ahranal.
She is shorter than average and appears to be in the bloom of youth. She has vivacious, bronze-sparked olive green eyes and sun-blushed fair skin. She has hip-length, champagne blonde hair drawn back from her face and bound in place by a carved polished ivory diadem set with a claret-hued gold-centered blazestar. She has a delicately sculpted face, an upturned nose and slightly-curved, naturally tinged pink lips.
She has a set of curled golden hooks in her left eyebrow, and a faint curl of tattooed jade smoke at her nape that rises sinuously up her neck.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a thin-veined dark oak leaf talisman wrought with a tangle of dark crimson, a trio of layered raw silk robes split up the backs to fan out into sharply trailing points, a long-sleeved linen tunic dyed a rich dark gold, a delicate eahnor promise ring, a lattice-woven raw linen bag, some cropped pale ivory chainsil pants, and a pair of pointy golden slippers edged with tiny jewels.

You see Dhask Zelgideon the Pirate.
He appears to be a Human from Chastonia.
He is of average stature and appears to be young and robust. He has hollow-looking black eyes and subtly tanned skin. He has slightly longer than shoulder length, unruly midnight black hair matted together in erratic wiry locks. He has a lightly stubbled face and a jagged scar across his right cheek. He has a long, ragged goatee that has been braided unevenly.
He has an inked gash on his neck, several tattooed coins in between the knuckles of each hand, a shoulder-to-knuckle series of lich qyn'arj tattoos on his arm, some tattooed serpentine scales on his finger, some tattooed serpentine scales around each eye, a series of curved black enameled claws in his left eyebrow, and a trio of obsidian-inlaid bone loops in his lip.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing an ebony leather tricorn, a high-collared ebon leather coat, a coiled steel and bone disc, a web-coated leather harness, a rum-stained yellowed linen tunic, a dull silver skull ring, a trailing dark red silken sash with several hilts peeking out, a scaled ebon leather loot bag, a claw-like leather tube, some black linen pantaloons, and a pair of wide cuffed leather boots.

And for the shows on a few of the items:

Tricorn - The black leather hat is pliable, with softened seams and a flexible, tricornered shape. Save for the small embossed image of an angular serpent skull and crossbones stamped centrally on the hat's front, the expanse of dark leather is unadorned. The look is timeworn, but serviceable.

Coat - Matte black mithril buckles secure the coat up the front and down each sleeve, each slightly concave to lie flat against the coat's leather body. Rivulets of crimson silk curl along the cuffs and wind down the lapels, the dark hue barely visible against the darker black. Slight rips and tears in various states of repair riddle the garment, while twin dull obsidian clasps draw the high collar upright to frame the wearer's face.

Disc - Thin layers of steel curved through a hammering process form the coils that comprise the disc, creating the image of a serpent. The steel is faintly sheened with a combination of malachite and ebon hues to lend the scales etched upon the surface a realistic appearance. Two flakes of onyx create eyes upon the head of the reptile as it curls upon its slender tail, and just within the mouth a hollow is formed. Two slivers of preserved bone form fangs that appear to be designed to cradle something inside.
The disc bears a small circular slot fitted with a faded gold ring.

Tunic - What once could have been a dashing white garment, the heavily stained tunic is quite a mess. Despite having a loosely designed cut, a row of matte black mithril buckles are fitted along the sleeves as well as the front of the shirt. Slight tears and rips cover the entire garment, some having been stitched up, while others droopily hang open. Several small pockets are sewn into the lining of the cuffs and waistband, their presence betrayed only by narrow openings in the fabric.

Bag - A single red steel buckle clasps the bag, cast into the shape of a serpent's head. Its maw gapes open, fangs extended to double-puncture a thin, belted strap. The leather body of the bag is embossed with a pattern of undulating scales.

Tube - Crafted from aged and blackened leather, the claw-like tube is very small -- the leather is time-worn and rubbed shiny in many places. A banding of alternating obsidian and wyrwood rings circles its center, and discreet runes have been stamped into its body. Talons dangle from the wickedly curved ends. The leather of the cylinder appears strained, as if containing far more weight than its size would imply.

Pantaloons - The pantaloons are dyed midnight black and meant to be worn very loosely. Ragged tears line each leg from the knee to the ankle, some are patched up while other loosely hang open. Two discreet sheaths are tucked away upon each thigh, their existance not hindering the wearer at all.

Boot - Fastening the calf-high boots are numerous blackened steel buckles, dark in hue as the rest of the supple leather uppers. Soft ebon suede is cut to fashion the soles, which are stitched together with no potentially clicking tacks or metal pieces.

And here are some props he has.

a one-eyed black crow charm - A little smaller than a live crow, this bird closely resembles the real thing. It is covered with sleek, soft black feathers and has a split tongue. A vertical scar mars its face where it's left eye should be, but the socket is empty. A tiny steel tag dangles from a chain on its right leg that reads, "Task the crow!"

That’s his best friend.

a small coiled horned viper – Snake Wand

Another pal of his.

a furry monkey pin crowned with a cap of mangy brown hair – goat pin

And lastly, some gear he switched out depending on the mood...

a massive leather back-scabbard

The scabbard is made from black leathery hide and designed to hold a large weapon. A crest of Chastonia has been stamped on the outside of the sheath, but is extremely faded. At the opening, three thin strands of matte black steel encircle the scabbard, while the tip is capped with a chunk of obsidian.

(contains his chain spear)

a specter skin baldric

An eerie green color permeates the nearly transluscent fabric of the scabbard. The seams of the piece are completely absent, and the apeture for the weapon seems to be woven into the material.

(for my black ora weapon, has a script when you remove an item that makes an eerir noise.)

a blackened leather helm

The helm is well worn from years of use and combat. Runes have been inscribed upon the helm in a form unrecognizable today. Sinister dark eyes upon the helm look through you almost as if they could peer through your clothing. The feeling is eerie.

(Thief's Helm)

Anyways, anything I should cut down on? Also, can I add more stuff?! I like lots of stuff...

Oh and I do like to wear enhancives when I need them... I have like 7 of those...

02-12-2008, 02:50 PM

02-12-2008, 02:52 PM
Hahaha. Yea, I'm a bit pissed on how the tattoos all show, but they are a must! He has his whole back done, hist chest done, his waist and TWO morphing roaming tattoos. I actually removed like 5 of them the other day. His inked gash on his neck is pretty sick, I should post that...

Dhask's Tattoos

an inked gash on his neck - The tattoo appears to be a fist-sized opening on the left side of the neck. Detailed images have been inked into the flesh, that at a first glance appear to be a real wound. A depiction of a horned viper slithering out of the wound, accompanied by several spiders has been inked around the gash.

a series of odd markings on his chest - Detailed inking spans his entire chest, starting at his collar bone and ending at his waistline. Resembling oddly shaped runes of unknown origins, the series of markings interweaves with itself in a variety of darkly hued colors interspersed with bright colors. The contrasting bright and dark colors combined with the careful interlocking of markings creates a shadowy effect across his entire chest.

a hideous lich qyn'arj tattoo - morphing tattoo

an intricately inked tattoo on his back - Incredible ink work spans the entire back. Interlocking symbols of Zelia, Eorgina, Onar and Luukos are set in sort of a diamond-shaped pattern upon the flesh. Misty tendrils of black and purple surround the symbols in an irregular pattern.

a red-eyed ghoulish vamp tattoo - Other morphing tattoo (a vamp is a sexy bitch, just FYI).

Those are the hidden ones that aren't on the description above.

You see Lady Nauriel Tar'Argien.
She appears to be an Elf.
She is very tall and appears to be youthful. She has slanted, feral ebon-traced viridian eyes and soft, ashen-toned, impeccably blanched skin. She has long, pearlescent white hair twisted into a high, neat bun and held in place with some tri-cut black diamond hairjewels arranged in a spiral design. She has an angular face, a straight nose and high cheekbones accentuated by sharply contoured, upswept ears. She has full, naturally incarnadine tinged lips.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a set of ebon ora-mesh backsheaths, a hooded ebony lace duster lined with silvery satin, a sable damask half-bodice caught at the sides with silver hooks, a despanal-set filigreed ora bracer, a platinum signet ring, a hammered silver disk girdle, a pair of hip-slung sleek ebon basilisk skin pants, and some black leather boots with tall flared heels.

>look bracer
Black leather has been molded around grey ora, leaving only the edges of the metal visible. A myriad of argent tracery flits across the bracer's surface, creating tendrils of intricate filigree that converge at the piece's center in a flurry of delicate ora leaves. Blossoming from within the nest of leaves, a rose-carved dead despanal glimmers, its dark ensanguined depths alight with tenebrous fire. Silver veniom cord laces the bracer secure, its entwined length wrought in the likeness of barbed vines.

I'm always amused by half-bodices. Like Avidleigh's player used to say, which half is it?

Blushy
02-14-2008, 06:32 AM
It's the left half.

Anyway, this is what my guy is wearing now. I like the image of the sheath strapped to each thigh, but I'm worried that it takes up too much space. The tattoo used to be much more appropriate than it is now, but he's keeping it anyway.

He appears to be a Human.
He is shorter than average and appears to be an adult. He has dark-rimmed blue-grey eyes and pale skin. He has short, shaggy dark brown hair. He has a weathered face and a freckled nose. His sun damaged skin is accentuated by the rugged texture of his weathered and beaten features.
He has a blushing pink pixie tattoo on his arm, and a faint silvery mark on his wrist.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing a dingy red bandana, a black skull and crossbones stitched eyepatch, a heavily worn black wool cloak, some battered red vultite chainmail, some red puma hide fingerless gloves, a black leather climbing pack, a crimson leather belt, some scuffed black leather trousers, an elegant red leather thigh-sheath, a slender oilcloth thigh-sheath wrapped in rawhide, and some buckled black leather boots with bright red heels and soles.

>l my cloak
The sun has faded the heavy black fabric of this cloak to a dull grey across the shoulders. Although years of abuse have left it heavily patched and frayed, it is still a sturdy and servicable garment.

>l my chainmail
The links of this short-sleeved chainmail shirt seem to have at one time been enamelled a brilliant red color approximating the luster and hue of eahnor. Ravages of time and war have dulled the shine considerably, while numerous nicks and scratches mar the enamel revealing the silvery vultite beneath.

>l my trousers
Time and years of use have tarnished the eahnor buckles and rivets of these trousers. The leather is worn and scuffed on the knees, seat, and oddly enough the shin area as well. The rivets reinforce all but the outer seams of the legs, which are fastened from hip to ankle with a row of buckles to ensure a close fit.

Now, here it is without the thigh-sheaths. Is this better?

Nothing new, except the pendant. Sproink made it last night during the hate rally. Jaysehn compares Michiko to a falcon, and Fehala now calls Michiko "Falcon's Shadow," so I thought it was appropriate.


You see Lady Michiko al'Lunacen.
She appears to be a Half-Sylvan.
She is short in stature and appears to have come of age. She has long-lashed, expressive twilight blue eyes and smooth, creamy skin. She has long, silky raven black hair drawn back from her face and bound in place by a plaited rowan twig circlet set with several plump carnelian berries. She has a finely contoured symmetrical face, an upturned nose and wide hips. She has petite, upswept ears that taper to delicate points.
She has a series of intricately etched slender silver rings in the ridges of both her ears.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a carved rowan falcon pendant, a silvery organza sylvan surcote, a pleated jade chainsil bliaut with trailing sleeves suspended from silver armbands, a floral-motif eahnor ring, and a pair of supple silver kidskin slippers with narrow toes.

a carved rowan falcon pendant: Suspended from a twisted serpentine silver chain, the rowan pendant is carved into a soaring falcon with tapered scythe-like wings. A thin layer of dark lacquer has been carefully applied to the scored wings, back, and head of the bird, creating a variegated dappled pattern on the otherwise pale wood. Two tiny spots of jade inlay serve as eyes.

Its almost spring! So I finally busted back out with my spring-hued outfits.

You see Jesae Jiin.
She appears to be a Sylvankind of the Lassaran D'ahranal.
She is shorter than average and appears to be in the bloom of youth. She has vivacious, bronze-sparked olive green eyes and sun-blushed fair skin. She has hip-length, champagne blonde hair drawn back from her face and bound in place by a five-chained draping silver circlet set with a pale wedge of citrine quartz. She has a delicately sculpted face, an upturned nose and slightly-curved, naturally tinged pink lips.
She has a faint curl of tattooed jade smoke at her nape that rises sinuously up her neck.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a stunning golden yellow daffodil tucked behind one ear, a herringbone-weave neckchain of silver links, a knee-length white moire silk longcoat, a wide-linked brushed silver wristchain, a delicate eahnor promise ring, a lustrous canary silk dress sewn with a profusion of yellow citrines that bleed upward from the hem, and some milky white silk sandals with short maple heels.

Stunseed in civilized garb.

You see Stunseed Zrenigotham.
He appears to be a Human.
He is of towering stature for a human and appears to be mature. He has piercing golden-flecked deep green eyes and slightly weathered, deeply tanned skin. He has shoulder length, windswept chestnut hair accented by rich golden undertones. He has a strongly-contoured, aristocratic face and broad shoulders. He has a thin line of faint red scar tissue next to his right eye.
He has a snarling puma tattoo on his chest, and a polished black moonstone stud in the upper ridge of his left ear.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing a silver-pinned black cavalier hat, a floor-length brushed suede cloak, a half-buttoned black raw silk shirt, an engraved darkened ora case, some brushed ebon suede pants fettered with a multitude of straps down the legs, and a pair of matte black boots striated with pale grey hues.

Cloak ( consolation cloak scripts ) : A layer of raw silk lines the interior of the elegant cloak from the deeply-cowled hood to the floor-length hem. Tailored for a large frame, the cloak is comprised of supple, impeccably brushed twilight silver suede with ebony stitching along the seams. Two narrow pleats adorn the middle of the seam across the back to give the garment flare and a row of silver-set obsidian buttons fasten the cloak from mid-chest to hem.

Shirt ( one of my first OG ideas ) : Tailored to fit a large frame while partially exposing the chest, the sheer silk garment is secured from mid-chest to hem with four polished moonstone buttons. Lengths of vibrant silk in varying hues of earthy brown, ruby red and jade green twine together in a slim cord, attached by a narrow bead of moonstone to the right shoulder and the bicep.

Case : Thickly belted by raw leather straps, the smooth surface of the darkened ora case appears charred at first glance with subtle hues of matte black melding with the natural light grey color of the metal in a shadowy pattern. Engraved upon the lid in elegant script is the word 'Zrenigotham'.

Anyway...someone got Minare one of those fan-freaking-tastic TWC sword belts so I had to stow her cincher. (No I will not sell it!l) I gave her some new pants and a waistcoat to help emphasize her pirateness. I hope to get them tweaked a bit to fit her style.

You see Minare.

>look kit
Several layers of clear lacquer finish the outside of this narrow wooden case, allowing the fine grain and intense wash of rust red and honey yellow to stand out as the main feature of the box. Its construction is long and thin, with the interior of the kit assaulting the senses with the pungent scent of the wood, and the intense hue of the vermilion silk lining the sides. As a finishing touch, glossy eahnor toggles serve to clasp the two halves of the kit closed.

Nothing new except the bodice, which I had made last night, and is based off the design Issalya had in Plat.


You see Lady Michiko al'Lunacen.
She appears to be a Half-Sylvan.
She is short in stature and appears to have come of age. She has long-lashed, expressive twilight blue eyes and smooth, creamy skin. She has long, silky raven black hair that flows smoothly down her back, curling at the tips to brush against her hips. She has a finely contoured symmetrical face, an upturned nose and wide hips. She has petite, upswept ears that taper to delicate points.
She has a series of intricately etched slender silver rings in the ridges of both her ears.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a velvety soft deep black rose tucked behind one ear, a silver-caged translucent crystal pendant, a contrasting cream and charcoal bourde longcoat flared at the hips, a single-strap ivory brocade bodice, a mosaic-inlaid thick silver cuff, a floral-motif eahnor ring, a graceful black ruffled skirt, and some ivory silk slippers tied with wide bands of soft ribbon.


Bodice: Fashioned from ivory brocade with subtle silver threading, this bodice is designed to be supported by a single strap, leaving the left shoulder bare. Tiny onyx grommets are set down the sides of the garment, allowing the wearer to lace it as tightly as desired with charcoal suede cords.

And it has a total ditzy chick script:
Idly, you twirl the tip of one of your ivory brocade bodice's laces around your index finger. With a sigh, you unwind the length and let it fall back into place.

He is holding a massive coraesine sword wrought with a spiral of incarnadine sigils in his right hand and a massive spiked imflass greatshield in his left hand.

He is wearing a massive black warrior's mantle, some crossed leather bandolier, an invar mesh leather war pack, a dark mithril-veined vultite breastplate with a myklian claw tooled on the chest, a tattered leather gem pouch, a fur-covered leather loincloth, a silver-edged vruul skin thigh-sheath, and some rugged worn boots.

look mantle
Massive in its size, this mantle is suitable for the broadest of shoulders. It has been lined with deep black wolf fur, making it extremely warm. Each bit of fur has been woven into the cloth beneath to form an intricate pattern of swirls. It seems the once noble mantle has been poorly maintained since much of the fur is torn and bedraggled. Within one of the swirls, "The Warrior's Guild" emblem is perfectly threaded.

look loin
The loincloth is fashioned from sturdy black leather and covered in a mangy black fur. Upon closer examination you notice small bone beads woven into the fur in an intricate design of swirls. Also a small message seems to be crudely embroidered in the leather that reads, "Don't Stare."

Had the loincloth made a long time ago, and it holds more than most leg-worn items (very necessary... if you catch my drift!).

Leggings: The kidskin is dyed such a deep black that it lends the smooth fabric a subtle violet sheen, akin to a raven's feather. Small silver crescents cap the ends of the ivory cording woven through onyx grommets along each leg, allowing the garment to be tightened around the legs for a snug fit.

He appears to be a Dhe'nar Dark Elf.
He is very tall and appears to be in the prime of life. He has almond-shaped silver eyes and ebon skin. He has long, coarse ghostly-white hair tightly plaited into complex geometric patterns gathered at the nape of his neck into a long tapered braid. He has an angular face, a sharp nose and high cheekbones.
He has a chain of intricate runes tattoo on his wrist, some tattooed interlocking sigils on his wrist, a Dhe'nari Warlock caste tattoo on his ear, an etched black vaalin ring in the upper ridge of his right ear, and a complex pattern of flowing sanguine script cascading down his neck.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing a sinuous black vaalin dragon pin, a gold slit-pupilled eye suspended from a shimmering black vaalin chain, an immaculate vaalin-threaded formal Dhe'nari cloak clasped with an iridescent black vaalin dragon, some ebon-hued warlock leathers, some elegant vaalin-tipped finger-armor, a shadowglass ring, a demon-etched orase scroll case clasped with an iridescent black vaalin dragon, and a supple vaalin-plaited nightmare hide whip set with a wrought-iron Dhe'nari branding sigil

some ebon-hued warlock leathers
-This armor design has been perfected over thousands of years resulting in a piece both beautiful and efficient. Dhe'nar crafting techniques have taken the light and strong hide of a jungle troll and created a supple and flexible suit of armor perfect for a spellcaster. Black vaalin thread has been used to embroider a snaking pattern of sigils all over the armor as well as the Dhe'nar warlock caste insignia on the chest, creating a beautiful dark iridescence that shimmers like stars in the night sky. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.

a sinuous black vaalin dragon pin
-A deep black piece of pure vaalin has been crafted into a striking rendition of an ancient dragon in flight. The faint opalescent sheen of the metal lends a striking beauty and sense of fluid motion to the piece. Upon closer examination what appeared to be individual scales are actually the result of an intricate web of interlocking tiny sanguine script. Small yellow diamonds have been skillfully embedded to give the dragon a pair of slit-pupilled eyes that glisten in the ambient light.

Bodice: Fashioned from ebon satin with a faint verdant sheen, the bodice is designed to be supported by a single strap, leaving the left shoulder bare. Tiny faenor grommets are set down the spine of the garment, allowing the wearer to lace it as tightly as desired with black suede cords.

Wristcuff: Soldered to a thin band of metal, the wristcuff is fashioned of the skeletal remains of an illthorn leaf. Each star-shaped leaf, some twelve in all, is carefully dipped in silver to preserve the veining, stem, and edges. Layered in an overlapping fashion, the leaves create a wide cuff that can be slipped over the wrist, and has cleverly concealed hinges that lock in place. A bit of jade is inlaid into the wristcuff to offer it a bit of color.

He is of towering stature for a human and appears to be mature. He has piercing golden-flecked deep green eyes and slightly weathered, deeply tanned skin. He has shoulder length, windswept chestnut hair accented by rich golden undertones. He has a strongly-contoured, aristocratic face and broad shoulders. He has a thin line of faint red scar tissue next to his right eye.
He has a polished black moonstone stud in the upper ridge of his left ear.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing a leaf-clasped ebony suede mantle, a sideless charcoal grey linen tunic embroidered with a hemline of dark green leaves, some etched smoky vultite armor, an onyx-veined faenor case slung from a grey leather strap, some ebony-sheened faenor green suede pants clasped with an onyx buckle, and some slouched ebony kidskin boots.

Armor ( 8x hcp hauberk ) :
Thick rings of smoky vultite woven seamlessly into an ebony tunic create the hauberk. The long sleeves are designed to rest over the backs of the hands, while supple leather lines the palms of the gloves for added protection. Traces of eahnor edge the hood and the thigh-length hem, and etched into the surface of the right breast is the image of a modwir tree silhouetted against a crescent moon, the outline of which is detailed with slivers of eahnor filigree.

Mantle :
Lined with dark green silk to compliment the faenor modwir leaf clasp upon the shoulder, the mantle is comprised of brushed ebony suede that is well-oiled to protect against the elements. A deeply cowled hood provides protection for the wearer against the same, and faenor threading wends its way along the seam from the hood to the floor-length, sweeping hemline. Surprisingly light, the fabric shifts elegantly with each movement to create a billowing effect.

Boots:
Supple kidskin dyed a deep ebony hue comprises the boots, the pliable material well-oiled and shining. Designed with comfort in mind, the footwear features thick soles and a slouched ankle that drapes down in a folded cuff. Dark natural leather cording laces the boots from toe to ankle, and the end of each cord is capped with a faenor modwir leaf.

I'll prolly end up strolling into the Nalea Swap for EE and then ride off to the proverbial sunset for a little while. Playing plat has been entertaining without the need to harness "substance", whereas with Stunseed it's come to the point where I have to actively seek out RP which has NEVER been a problem before. I've even walked into the Dais and foraged fruit to hand people just to try anything, but it's been slowly killing the spirit.

We've gone before, but a few events left a really sour taste in my mouth for that city/clique. I've boycotted the city for almost two years now, and won't go there pretty much for any reason. I don't begrudge Jolena going, but you will not see Stun there unless it's a pretty dire situation.

Getting ready for the Nalea Swap tonight! The choker and the reticule both haven't been seen before.

You see Lady Michiko al'Lunacen.
She appears to be a Half-Sylvan.
She is short in stature and appears to have come of age. She has long-lashed, expressive twilight blue eyes and smooth, creamy skin. She has long, silky raven black hair that flows smoothly down her back, curling at the tips to brush against her hips. She has a finely contoured symmetrical face, an upturned nose and wide hips. She has petite, upswept ears that taper to delicate points.
She is in good shape.
She is holding an indigo velvet reticule traced with platinum beading in her left hand.
She is wearing a platinum and glaes skyscape choker, a high-collared fog grey silk pelisse, a lustrous indigo velvet houppelande with ermine-edged trailing pendant sleeves, a floral-motif eahnor ring, and a pair of soft velvet pointy-toed slippers.

Choker: A solid choker inlaid with slivers of glaes ranging from nearly translucent grey to opaque ebon creates the image of a stormy night sky against the lighter backdrop of platinum. Small glimpses of the underlying metal shine through the darker layer of glaes in four places, forming the constellation of the Paladin.

Pelisse: A thin line of luxurious ermine adorns the hem of the pelisse, perfectly complimenting the interwoven ebony threads shot through the garment to create a shadowy, storm-like undertone to the fabric. The high collar is clasped with a slender platinum chain that suspends a single indigo crescent, and a lining of ebon satin adds weight to the garment while continuing the theme of contrasting hues.

A little sad that the winter season is over, I'll have to start working on collecting a more suitable spring attire:

You see Lady Laphrael Miran'ta the Master Cobbler.
She appears to be a Half-Sylvan.
She is shorter than average and appears to have come of age. She has silver-flecked pale cyan eyes and soft, lily-white skin. She has long, flowing deep red hair drawn back from her face and bound in place by a carved polished ivory diadem set with an aster opal. She has a delicate face, an upturned nose and thin eyebrows. She has a light peppering of freckles on her cheeks.

She is wearing a hip-length ivory suede jacket, an ivory cashmere blouse with long draping sleeves, a white satin sash, a supple ivory suede lockpick pouch, an ivory satin skirt with wide pleats, some sheer ivory leggings, and some high-heeled ivory boots trimmed with ermine.

>l jacket
Buttery-soft ivory suede is cut in a fashionable mid-length style, allowing the jacket to end just at the hips of the wearer. The garment is lined with fine ivory satin, and is clasped in the front with a pale piece of chalcedony. Clearly intended for colder climates, the neck and cuffs have been finished with soft white ermine fur.

Lots of people have multiple outfits. Those that do probably keep everything organized in a spreadsheet - I do.

I'm a huge packrat and buy an absurd amount of crap to sell at stupidly inflated prices later and I can tell you the exact inventory and locker inventory of every character I have (it's nearly 4,000 items now).

DCSL
03-15-2008, 02:36 PM
When I played, I generally changed the character's outfit before I signed off for the day so that the next time I played, next day or days later, she'd be all set for action. And it didn't take me more than five minutes.

But then, the characters' outfits were never more than four lines long, with maybe eight visible items total on 'em. That may account for how quick it was. And the fact that I was organized.

Daily changes are not a must but if I am playing with the same group of folks, I do like to change her into an outfit they had not seen already that week. It doesn't take very long else I wouldn't bother.

You see Ahmarante Angrave.
She appears to be a Human from Honneland.
She is average height and appears to be in the bloom of youth. She has refulgent hematite-hued eyes and fair skin. She has shoulder length, glossy brunette hair with lighter streaks. She has an angular face, an upturned nose and thin eyebrows.
She is in good shape.

She is wearing a jaunty black cavalier's hat, a knee-length ebon leather longcoat, an open-necked deep black silk shirt, a marquise-cut smoky topaz brooch, a chased silver band, a brilliant smoky topaz ring, a silk skirt, and a pair of elegant charcoal leather riding boots.

Had to put something together that would highlight my ToR pick for the boutique I had designed for the contest.

You see Jesae Jiin.
She appears to be a Sylvankind of the Lassaran D'ahranal.
She is shorter than average and appears to be in the bloom of youth. She has vivacious, bronze-sparked olive green eyes and sun-blushed fair skin. She has hip-length, champagne blonde hair that slinks down her back in glossy, sharply kinked waves. She has a delicately sculpted face, an upturned nose and slightly-curved, naturally tinged pink lips.
She has a faint curl of tattooed jade smoke at her nape that rises sinuously up her neck.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a pink and white stargazer lily tucked behind one ear, a coiled branch-like choker of cloisonne cherry blossoms, a natural linen robe gathered into a narrow pleated train at the back, a loose dark green silk tunic with a square neckline, some hip-slung chocolate silk pants which flare out dramatically as they reach the calf-length hem, and some low-heeled cocoa leather boots.

But back to the topic at hand. . . .

She appears to be a Sylvankind of the Fresiawn D'ahranal.
She is shorter than average and appears to be very young. She has wide periwinkle blue eyes and fair skin. She has unruly, pale-streaked flaxen hair left to spill loose down her back except for a single narrow braid that wraps her head in a tight coronet. She has a heart-shaped face, an upturned nose and small pointed ears.
She is wearing a brilliant white moonflower tucked behind one ear, a sleeveless gauzy sky blue surcote, a loose white cotton shirt with billowing sleeves, a moonflower-etched silver instrument case, an embroidered blue chainsil skirt, and some side-laced white leather sandals.

All off the shelf except the skirt:

Fine pleats ripple across the skirt, almost concealing the variegated nature of the fabric in their shadowed folds. Though mostly a rich, cobalt blue, the linen bears a few patches of navy and cerulean, relics of either an uneven dye job or poorly cleaned stains. Heedless of the discoloration beneath them, a few pure white threads descend from the waist to form a narrow chain of silver-centered flowers that spirals around the skirt three times before reaching the calf-length hem.

A very special event for Marni tonight, calling for very special attire.

You see Marni i'Areta.
She appears to be a Half-Elf from Jantalar.
She is shorter than average and appears to be very young. She has beautifully indigo-outlined blue-green eyes and rosy skin. She has very long, straight chestnut hair. She has a square face and slightly pointed ears.
She has a pair of sapphire-inset silver earrings in the ridges of both her ears, and a four-tined cerulean star tattoo on her wrist.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a delicate rose and ivy circlet, a blue starstone necklace, a flame-cut diamond necklace, a pearl-clasped filmy blue wrap, a stargazer lily, an embroidered blue spidersilk cotehardie, a gold-inlaid carved ruby band, and some pale blue high heeled slippers.

Description on the cotehardie:
The bodice of the wide-necked cotehardie is covered with entwining lilies skillfully embroidered with silver thread. A narrow band of gold watered silk is wrapped around where the dropped waist joins the skirt, accenting the wearer's hips, and the unadorned skirt flows down into a short train.

Description on the slippers:
The texture of the high heeled slippers shimmers in the ambient light, and there are five gems set in a diamond pattern. The sapphire is slightly depressed and the blue seems to flow across the surface.

(The cotehardie is my design; the slippers were bought from someone's shop sometime last year.)

She appears to be an Elf.
She is tall. She has sparkling, contrasting moon gray and sky blue eyes and milky white skin. She has very long, silky raven-hued hair which tumbles and cascades down her back and framing her face, angled knife-edged fire red bangs cloak her eyes in wispy shadows. She has a stylized flame beauty mark encircling her left eye.
Her face is concealed by a narrow leather mask laced with silk cord.
She has a tattooed symbol of Eorgina on her neck, a spider web tattoo on her ear, an Empath Guild tattoo on her finger, a pair of dark steel hooked spikes set along the slender tips of her pointed ears, a frosted glass ring in the middle of her nose, and a thin dark diamond ring in her left eyebrow.
She is in good shape.
She is holding a sparkling platinum brooch adorned with black diamonds in her right hand.
She is wearing a glassy black mica amulet, a grey pearl Eorgina symbol, a firestone and vaalin-link collar, a chain-adorned black leather longcoat, a black regal griffin insignia, a short black silk bodice, an iron bolted midnight black vultite shield emblazoned with a single flame, an oversized black leather satchel clasped with an iron grappling hook, some fitted sleek black leathers with intricate Lornon designs embossed down the sides, a stylized manacle wrist cuff carved from blackened bone, a black leather belt with a spiked silver buckle, a black rolaren mesh sack, an elegant black silk gem pouch, some sleek fitted black leather pants adorned with chains, and some black spike-heeled boots.

You see Lady Merelle Norre'annia.
She appears to be a Nalfein Elf.
She is tall and appears to be young. She has long-lashed warm russet gold-flecked eyes and silky smooth, lightly sunkissed skin. She has hip-length, soft flaxen blonde hair captured and bound at the nape of the neck by several wooden beaded braids tied in a casual knot. She has a delicate face, a straight nose and thin-tipped pointed ears.
She has a tattoo of winding flower petals on her ankle.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a yellow-tinged cream colored daffodil tucked behind one ear, a clear glass apple blossom pendant, a cream floral brocade longcoat, an open-necked pale pink silk shirt, a cylindrical silver vasculum case, some loose pale linen pants, and some low-heeled pale pink silk slippers.

>l pendant
Pressed between two thin ovals of crystal clear glass are a cluster of flawless white apple blossoms, their delicate pink-tinged petals preserved on a verdant backing of tiny willow leaves. Engraved in the silver edging are the words, "Life, like a dome of many-colored glass, stains the white radiance of eternity until death tramples it to fragments."

>l longcoat
Tailored in the elven style with a high collar and gently flaring sleeves, this lightweight coat falls to a mid calf-length hem and fastens high at the waist with interlocking gold and silver filigree clasps. The weave of creamy white fabric is richly decorated with a floral design in delicate shades of lavender, rose pink and primrose yellow, reminiscent of a spring garden in full bloom.

>l case
Crafted from smooth polished silver, the body of this cylindrical case features a length-wise flap as the only opening. Lining the base of the interior is a strip of thick cream velvet, stopping just short of a latch securing the opening of a separate compartment large enough to hold a few cubes of ice. A square silver plate etched with a cothinar bloom is affixed to one flat side next to the fettered end of a soft cream suede belt loop.

He is taller than average and appears to be very young. He has sparkling silver-blue eyes and dusky skin. He has a bald head. He has an angular face.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing a polished cloud agate mask, some high-collared dark crimson silk robes with deep ebon-lined sleeves, a light grey loosely woven tunic, a deep crimson kidskin bag, a soft grey textured sash, some silk-lined black leather pants, and some black vaalin pebbled ebon silk sandals with flat soles.

Tunic's an armor concealer, sash is a greame one.

>l mask
Dark blue eostone tendrils spiderweb the mask's pure white countenance. The single slab of cloud agate is smooth at the edges and has an almost tumbled finish. Two eye-slits, slanted and long, are the only incisions in an otherwise unmarked surface.

>l bag
Crafted from buttery soft kidskin, this bag is dyed a deep crimson so dark in hue that it appears nearly black. The wide double straps of this bag are stitched with gold thread and designed to cross over the wearer's back securely. The pack itself is also sewn with gold thread and lined with a double layer of black velvet and silk. A slim triangular mithril clasp serves to fetter the long flap on the bag shut

She is short in stature and appears to have come of age. She has long-lashed, expressive twilight blue eyes and smooth, creamy skin. She has long, silky raven black hair that flows smoothly down her back, curling at the tips to brush against her hips. She has a finely contoured symmetrical face, an upturned nose and wide hips.

She is in good shape.
She is wearing a simple red rose tucked behind one ear, silk-lined black velvet cloak, a silver-webbed ebon brocade corset, a floral-motif eahnor ring, a long skirt of alternating ebon velvet and silk panels, and a pair of supple silver kidskin slippers with narrow toes.

Corset: The brocade is patterned with raised roses in different stages of life, from tiny rosebuds to full, resplendent blooms. Faint traces of crimson sweep along the petals, bestowed by subtle eahnor threading. The entirety of the corset is overlaid with hair-thin filaments of pallid silver webbing, creating an image reminiscent of a rose garden viewed through an intricate lattice.

realized I havent posted the Elf bard's outfit, and I am bored..so


She is tall and appears to have come of age. She has large, gold-sheened deep plum eyes and soft, unblemished magnolia white skin. She has hip length, claret-shadowed amaranth red hair drawn back from her face and bound in place by a slim gold filigree circlet. She has an oval face, a classical nose and thin pointed ears.
She has a set of curled golden hooks set along the slender tips of her pointed ears.
She is holding a thin platinum mirror inset with golden blazestar shards in her left hand.
She is wearing a silk and mistwood choker, a silk-wrapped white oak backscabbard with a dual-bladed argent vultite glaive and an ornate amethyst-set naginata strapped to it, a soft ivory marbrinus mantle shot through with goldenrod striations, a slash-paneled mahogany silk corset, a translucent ora signet ring, a slender silken coin purse, a pair of flaxen suede pants stitched with cream arabesques, and some pale-laced rich mahogany leather boots.

>look at choker
A diamond-shaped plaque of smooth mistwood is strung from a short length of ivory silk. Natural blonde flecks are visible beneath the honeyed stain that lacquers the piece, emphasizing its rich patterns and textures. Rendered from delicate gold foil-work, a single rose blossoms at the pendant's center, its fragile petals revealing the highlighted grains in the surrounding wood.

>look glaive
Large, gently curved blades extend forth in mirrored opposition from the aubergine silk-wrapped white oak haft. Delicate gold filigree embellishes the juncture of argent metal and pale polished wood, binding them together with spiralling floral patterns. Elaborate fullers in the shape of wild orchids extend up each of the ornately finned blades, the gleam of their royal purple tinges dulling against the silver-white vultite.
There appears to be something written on it.
>read glaive
In the Elven language, it reads:
"Fantail"

>look Naginata
A cream silk-wrapped mahogany haft fuses with a thickly curved cutting edge. The silvery white steel piece is heavy and reminiscent of a long crescent moon. A single, twilight-hued amethyst is set at the blade's base, deep gold-tinged fullers sprouting forth from the bezel-set stone in an array of intricate floral patterns. Balancing the ornate weapon, a matching gilded spike gleams dully from the opposite end of the richly polished shaft.
There appears to be something written on it.
>read naginata
In the Elven language, it reads:
"Moonflower"

>look at corset
Golden amber beading edges each panel of mahogany silk, the center of which is cross-slashed to display the creamy ivory lining beneath. Internal boning provides a stiff hourglass form for a figure when worn, and airy lengths of golden gossamer thread through burnished grommets lining the back seam.

04-06-2008, 12:04 AM
Haven't posted in a while, so I'll chip in my Erithi, who's definitely one of my mains.

She appears to be an Erithian of the Nathala Dai.
She is very tall and appears to be in the spring of life. She has vivid, sharply slit-pupiled malachite eyes and translucent pale skin. She has waist-length, sun-gilt cedar red hair falling in unfettered silken layers to the small of her back. She has an oval face, a small nose and delicately curved ears.
She has a gilt eye and five rings tattooed on her wrist.
She is in good shape.
She is holding an enameled slender vultite katana in her right hand and a gently curved pale vultite wakizashi in her left hand.
She is wearing an imflass-link nathala agate elothrai, a sleeveless black linen robe, a high-collared rich sapphire charmeuse tunic fastened by knotted silk frogs, a twice-wrapped onyx silk sash, some flowing dark blue silk pants bound ankle to knee by lengths of dusky linen, and some finely woven river reed sandals anchored by supple leather soles.

Tattoo: Faint traceries of gold infuse the slit-pupiled eye with hints of a crystalline structure to suggest faceted citrine quartz. Five rings, each in tones of cinnabar, jade, lapis, hematite and pearl, interlock in a circle beneath the honey-hued eye, enclosed within an oval of vivid turquoise. Sinuous striations of gold and black flow through the intense azure, the play of colors most resembling fine nathala agate.

Katana: A series of flowers and leaves swirl down the katana's slender blade, their intricate forms tinted by brilliant enameling. Delicate pink cherry blossoms unfurl near the gold-limned shakudo tsuba cast as a coiling dragon before giving way to a spill of emerald willow leaves. Slender maple leaves in autumnal hues follow soon after, spiraling down toward the glittering crystal snowflakes near the tip. Shimmering argent silk binds the tapering tsuka, trailing several inches past the silver kashira.
There appears to be something written on it.
In the Erithian language, it reads:
Winter's Gift

Wakizashi: Intricately faceted crystal shards inlaid within the icy-hued vultite coalesce into a swirl of snowflakes falling to the razored tip. Feathery silver veins spread frost-like over the blade, clustered in delicate, wintery cold gusts. Finely woven argent silk binds the ray skin-covered tsuka in a diamond pattern, before trailing freely past the kashira.
There appears to be something written on it.
In the Erithian language, it reads:
Winter's Whisper

Elothrai: Myriad dark blue silk threads wend through fine imflass links, the metal's silvery cast shimmering when struck by ambient light. A polished nathala agate cabochon rests at the center of the chains, designed to settle at the center of the wearer's forehead. Sinuous ebon striations provide a sharp contrast to the intense turquoise hue of the gem. Faintly visible upon the stone's face, an etched slit-pupiled eye overlies five conjoined circles.

Robe: Lengths of ebony linen, both strong and soft to the touch, fall freely into a sweeping, loosely fitted robe. Stylized silken wavecrests of matching jet hue subtly accent the open front and deep side slits as the austere garment's only ornamentation.

I really miss my Erithian. I had a lot of fun with her just 'cause no one knew it was me. Well. Until I posted her on here. Then I kind of stopped playing. But she was fun. It's nice to play inscrutable wisdom.

ROBE-WEARING ERITHIANS UNITE!

You see Mayuko.
She appears to be an Erithian of the Nathala Dai.
She is average height and appears to be youthful. She has slit-pupiled silvery monsoon blue eyes and freckled skin. She has long, silky amaryllis red hair that cascades to her knees save for two thin braids at each temple. She has a delicate face and softly-sculpted, gentle features. She has a graceful, willowy neck.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a gold-chained banded agate elothrai, a silk-strung banded agate cabochon, a sleeveless deeply-folded ginger linen robe slit to the waist on both sides, a calf-length creamy raw silk tunic, some ora-scaled cream-colored brigandine, a raw silk sling, a multi-wrapped layered silk sash, a pair of loose honey-hued linen pants bound from knee to ankle with creamy raw silk, and a pair of divot-toed ginger raw silk shoes.

Elothrai (which I did really fast, I think I might re-do it. I tried to do it to match her cabochon.)
Deep honey, ginger and cream swirl and bleed into one another creating a whirlpool of hues in the heart of this coin-sized agate. Framed and held in place by a thin gold chain, its rich hue enhances the traces of bright gold that dance throughout the oval cabochon's smooth surface.

Cabochon
Tight knit swirls of ginger, gold, and honey create spiral vortices that dance across the surface of the cabochon and are reminiscent of a whirlpool. Etched at the heart of the stone is a nautilus shell, its tubular length accented by the curving bands. A braided cord of bronze, gold, and ginger silk is looped through a bronze circle set into the back of the piece, while a tiny missive is etched just beneath.
There appears to be something written on it.
>read cabochon
In the Erithian language, it reads:
The harmony of sea and land seeps into the spirit of the Nathala.

Tunic
Slits from waist to hem and wide, fluidly draping sleeves accommodate for ease movement in this garment. Tone-on-tone lotus embroidery and delicately looped honey silk frogs fasten diagonally from the low-collar to just below the right breast, adding simple, but elegant ornamentation to the utilitarian tunic.

Eh, while I know that Erithi are often bald or balding, I don't see it as being so important to them. If it were a mark of beauty or something desirable, it would be far more widespread.

Ah, there she was. I don't know how I resisted the awesomeness of the slit pupils but I thought since it was stated that it was rare, it should be rare. And she dyed her hair.


She appears to be an Erithian.
She appears to be an adult and tall. She has wide flame-gold eyes and translucent pale skin. She has long, fine sable hair secured into a spiral knotted bun by a set of seven polished bronze hairsticks. She has a triangular face and finely chiseled cheekbones.
She has a tattooed line of ornate black knotwork edging her high hairline and sending sharp spikes down over her forehead.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing an open sweeping rich coffee brown silk outer robe, some long elaborately layered and wrapped black linen robes, a back-knotted wide dark silk belt, a bronze-laced agate charm anklet, and some wooden sandals.

Actually that isn't true, about the eyes, I even read over the docs and asked a few people, this is from the official docs

The Erithi are slightly taller and thinner than humans, (about 5'6" to 6'6") with slightly pointed ears and almond-shaped eyes, usually with somewhat vertically 'slitted' rather than completely round pupils.

DCSL

ViridianAsp
04-06-2008, 10:46 PM
Both genders are often balding or with just a fringe of hair, males more commonly, though they are rarely completely bald - high foreheads or a fringe of hair worn long are more common.

This was the only rarity mentioned that I could find, it's close to the eye part in the docs.

DCSL
04-06-2008, 11:37 PM
Hm, no, I remember thinking that I read that those with slit pupil eyes were considered special. Like, given to wisdom or something. Or was it turquoise eyes? Crap. Look, I don't play for a year and I lose EVERYTHING.

lavcat
04-07-2008, 01:54 PM
I remember it, too. Not that I've looked in the Erithian docs in a long time, but I know when they first came out it said SOMEWHERE that split pupil eyes were rare, and yes, I recall them meaning wisdom as well.

Now let's see if I can go find where.

She appears to be a Half-Elf from Jantalar.
She is shorter than average and appears to be very young. She has blue-green eyes and rosy skin. She has very long, straight chestnut hair caught in a casual roll at the nape of her neck by some twisted platinum hairsticks. She has a square face and slightly pointed ears.
She has a four-tined cerulean star tattoo on her wrist, and a pair of sapphire-inset silver earrings in the ridges of both her ears.
She is wearing a flame-cut diamond necklace, an onyx and ruby-beaded choker, a lily-trimmed red silk bodice, a gold-inlaid carved ruby band, a burnished mithril wedding ring edged with vaalin, a side-slit layered scarlet skirt, some sheer black silk stockings with seams down the back, and some dainty black velvet slippers.

What the hell

Nilandia
04-14-2008, 09:51 PM
Been getting a few alters in Plat, so I figured I'd share another incarnation of Nilandia.

You see Nilandia Liserna the Academic.
She appears to be a Sylvankind.
She is tall and appears to be youthful. She has softly sparkling forest green eyes and smooth, creamy white skin. She has very long, golden-highlighted sunset red hair that has a slender braid at the temple adorned with an emerald parrot feather barred with pale peridot. She has a gentle and delicate face and slightly upswept ears that taper to fine points. Her long, graceful neck accentuates her fragile, finely boned features.
She has a rose-twined ebony key tattoo on her neck.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing an amber-set carved modwir talisman, a layered faenor-hued chainsil mantle falling from a shoulder-pinned chrysoprase faewood leaf, a sheer silk gauze sylvan surcote, a pale-sashed verdant silk robe, and a pair of calf-tied soft suede sandals embossed with five-petaled blossoms.

The tattoo came from a storyline where Nilandia officiated the wedding of two spirits.

Talisman: Tinged with subtle gilt accents, a scroll carved in bas relief unfurls across the surface to edge the small disk and frame the central image. There, five rings tinted in varying colors interlock about a finely polished cabochon of rich golden amber. Two tiny plumes intertwine within the stone's honey-hued depths, a pelican's feather spiraling about a hawk's quill. A line of script follows the scroll's path, the fluid lettering almost lost within the ebb and flow of the modwir's grain.
There appears to be something written on it.
In the Sylvankind language, it reads:
Without Wisdom, Life is meaningless. Without Life, Wisdom is dead.

Surcote: Delicately shimmering silk strands have been woven loosely into the fine gauze comprising this light and airy garment. The fluidity of the fabric allows the robe to mold to the wearer's silhouette, and when the material is in motion, it creates an illusion akin to the appearance of softly falling rain.

Robe: Twice-bound by a sash of pale malachite-hued silk gathered by a cabochon of polished chrysoprase, the robe's fluid lines and slender silhouette resemble nothing so much as a bliaut tailored with a slightly looser fit. Delicate golden tendrils pick out the veins of painted willow leaves scattered over the flowing garment to collect at the hem and edges of the knotted bell sleeves. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.

You see Drakuya Gev'audan.
He appears to be a Human from Vornavis.
He is tall and appears to be long in the tooth. He has cerulean-flecked ocean grey eyes and copper-tinged, deeply tanned skin. He has long, dark green hair twisted into several thick sections that are wrapped with strips of salt-stained seathrak hide. He has a time-worn, leathery face and faint scar across the bridge of his broken nose. His long, dark green moustaches and beard are braided together into a single plait.
He has a whittled sliver of shark tooth in the upper ridge of his left ear and an emerald trident tattoo on his neck.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing a sleeveless worn leather longcoat, a thick cobalt blue leather eyepatch, a salt-crusted satchel embossed with wild sea monsters, a faded cobalt blue leather jerkin, a pair of worn cobalt leather pants laced up the sides with frayed rope, and some black leather boots with a series of silver buckles.


a sleeveless worn leather longcoat
Once a fine naval-style longcoat, the blues that make of the theme are long faded from sun and salt. Made in the traditional style of the Ashrim, the sleeves have been torn off and studded along the frayed edges with black vultite. To keep the bottom hem from unravelling further, a band of segmented vultite plates have been sewn into the leather. Nicks and chips mar the once perfect aquamarine buttons, the proud Ashrim House crest on the left breast now faded and barely disernable with age.
************************************************** ************************************************** ************
a faded cobalt blue leather jerkin (Armor Concealer)
Stitched with sturdy sinew threading and crafted from soft but faded leather, the jerkin was once a deep rich cobalt with silver embroidery. Thick black cotton sleeves are slightly bloused and laced from wrist to elbow with heavy rope cording, tarnished trident-shaped silver cufflinks glint in the light against the dark material. Fastening down the front are a series of leather and silver cinches, each etched with a wolf's head over an emerald-inlaid trident.

two of mine,

You see ****** the Bardess.
She appears to be a Human of the Tehir tribes.
She is average height and appears to be young and robust. She has almond-shaped violet eyes and olive skin. She has hip-length, henna-tinted sable hair worn in a simple side-plait falling gracefully forward over her shoulder. She has a delicate face and a narrow waist.
She has a series of inked interlocking swirls tracing the arch of her eyebrows and fading into her hairline behind the ears, and a lustrous gold ring in her left nostril.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing some dark fitted leathers with a masked cowl, some loose cross-wrapped dark cotton robes waist-tied with a wide scarlet sash, a weathered rawhide-wrapped canteen, some crossed rough canvas back-sheaths, an ivory-inlaid instrument case, and some black suede boots with onyx buttons at the ankles.



You see Lord ***** ********* the Curate.
He appears to be a Dhe'nar Dark Elf.
He is tall and appears to be young. He has faintly grey-swirled midnight black eyes and dark skin. He has short, straight midnight black hair with a longer plum-colored crest atop his head. He has an aquiline nose and angular pointed ears.
He has a curved black diamond bar in his left eyebrow.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing a broad ivory cambric scarf fringed with tiny ebonwood beads, a holy symbol depicting a silver-edged black sword on a sable field, a black spidersilk priest's robe with a white collar, a crushed silk harness, a star-clasped soft leather satchel, a massive antique ring set with a sparkling array of large gems, a medic bag, and some plain black leather sandals.


Probably both a bit cliched but im still working on them and getting bits as i go along, most of the stuffs off the shelf apart from these alters i had done:

some loose cross-wrapped dark cotton robes waist-tied with a wide scarlet sash

a holy symbol depicting a silver-edged black sword on a sable field (amulet holder)

a massive antique ring set with a sparkling array of large gems (FWI transport item)

To stay on topic here's the girl I've been playing the most with recently. She's a fire mage and I'm trying to show that by keeping her in a lot of warm toned metals/reds and the cloak needs to be redone. The fucking merchant the other morning told me I needed my long descripton to be less than 12 words and that I had to change the robe base it was into a cloak.


You see Jiarine.
She appears to be a Nalfein Elf.
She is shorter than average and appears to be immature. She has lash draped topaz-encircled brilliant cyan eyes and alabaster skin. She has chin length, silky coal black hair with longer layers of fiery gold and umber framing her face. She has sharp pointed ears.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a layered cloak of gilded bronze silk with a belt of firestone orbs, a pale gold chiffon blouse, a coral and ivory wristlet, a gold-latched pale mistwood case, a flame-hemmed claret and gold skirt, and some coppery calf-tied sandals.

I saw her earlier and was going to post her under Outfit Award but you beat me to it!

Made me want to dust off my fire mage too ....

You see Lady Une Naur-Faendryl the Firestormer.
She appears to be a Faendryl Dark Elf.
She is tall and appears to be very young. She has long-lashed hazel eyes and dusky skin. She has very long, perfectly smooth deep red hair that flows past her hips in a fiery curtain. She has an angular face, a small nose and sharply-curved pointed ears.
She has a dragon-shaped ruby stud in the upper ridge of her left ear, a coiled gold dragon tattoo on her neck, and a fiery crimson blazestar tattoo on the palm of her left hand.
She is in good shape.
She is holding a beautiful sunset-hued hand mirror edged in golden ora in her right hand.
She is wearing a crimson blazestar ferroniere on a herringbone vaalorn chain, a gold-streaked firecat skin harness, a reddish-gold firecat hide bag, a delicate teardrop ruby pendant, a luxuriant reddish-gold firecat fur mantle lined with ebony spidersilk, a jeweled sunset-hued corslet, a low-cut ebon spidersilk bodice with deep red flame-stitched sleeves, a dainty golden charm bracelet, a red and gold scroll case, a sunset-hued silk skirt with a thigh-high side split revealing a sheer ebon spidersilk underskirt, and some tall ebon silk-lined boots.

The sunset-hued mirror says, "Une, you look good."

All based around the box found mantle and most of the stuff is off the shelf from events over the years, apart from the skirt and her armor which I had altered to match. All a bit flashy really but then she is an Eorginian worshipper.

corslet ~ Cross-laced down the back with burnished gold laces, this supple leather corslet is cinched tightly to fit snugly and accentuate a narrow waist. Although originally a rich dark brown, the leather has softened over time to subtly shift in color with every movement and glows like a fiery reddish-gold sunset. Tooled over the left shoulder is a resplendent soaring dragon, its large ebony-scaled wings outstretched to expose an underbelly encrusted with tiny, radiant fire opals.

Cloak: Fashioned from deep blue matte silk, the fabric of this cloak falls in graceful folds to a three-quarters' length. A trio of slender silver chains clasps the high collar, fastened together with a rose-cut sapphire brooch.

Half-boots: Faint silver tracery adorns the fine cobalt leather of the half-boots, swirling upwards in delicate whorls from the sole towards the ankle. The short rounded silver heels are slightly tapered, adding a touch of feminine grace to the footwear.

Bracelet: Delicate silver strands are woven into a close-knit braided mesh to form tiny web-like cages for the small orbs of silvery moonstone that form the flexible bracelet. Soft shades of silver chase one another across the pallid surfaces of the gems as light strikes them at differing angles to perfectly mimic the natural phenomenon of moonlight shining through thin clouds. A clever hasp is hidden within one of the braids so that the piece never tapers, but is always the same uniform thickness.

I'm giddy as a schoolgirl over the alters I had done at the festival.

You tap a wine-dark oiled cotton greatcloak that you are wearing.

Several layers of sturdy cotton cloth are quilted together for toughness and warmth, and waterproofed with linseed oil. The cloth is dyed a blue-gray, echoing the appearance of an unfathomable sea. Artful use of silver thread in the quilting picks out a clenched fist across the back of the cloak. A silk lining of emerald green lends elegance to the whole, and a row of silver toggles glint in the dimmest light. A silver clasp set with a vibrant blue moonstone gathers the fabric at the throat.

You remove a fist-pommeled elven-bladed claidhmore from in your doeskin britches.

A study in contrasts, the glimmering, deceptively slender blade of an elven claidhmore has been bolted to a leather-wrapped steel hilt sized for human hands, which appears all the coarser by comparison. Delicate decorative scrollwork at the base of the blade clashes with the relentlessly practical, unornamented sweep of the crossguards. The hilt's sole concession to form over function is the pommel, a brightly polished silver fist clenched around a small and beautifully faceted emerald. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.

Paupers Low Fashion Show, starting in about 15 minutes!!

The tangy scent of salt water lingers briefly accompanied by a distant voice, "House of Paupers' Low Fashion Show will begin shortly on Plando's house boat! It is located through the blue gates, just south and east of the uniformed doorkeeper! Come enjoy horrible fashion and extraordinary refreshments!"

So I was shoving junk into my locker in preparation of getting arrested, and had to take some shit out so it would fit.

For no reason, here's some of the random crap I had stowed away.

You are wearing a midnight blue satin mask, a wrinkled pink shirt, a rugged deep violet sack, some enruned magenta pants and an ora-bound steel Adventurer's Guild badge.

New blouse, courtesy of Lethra last evening.

You see Lady Michiko al'Lunacen.
She appears to be a Half-Sylvan.
She is short in stature and appears to have come of age. She has long-lashed, expressive twilight blue eyes and smooth, creamy skin. She has long, silky raven black hair that flows smoothly down her back, curling at the tips to brush against her hips. She has a finely contoured symmetrical face, an upturned nose and wide hips. She has petite, upswept ears that taper to delicate points.
She has a set of twisted silver hoops in the ridges of both her ears.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a purple-tipped white iris tucked behind one ear, a silver-caged translucent crystal pendant, a trailing ebon and lilac bourde longcoat with a tall flared collar, a soft lilac silk blouse bound with a slender ivory-scaled corset, a mosaic-inlaid thick silver cuff, a floral-motif eahnor ring, a pair of low-slung fitted black linen pants, and a pair of narrow-toed cream leather boots with matte silver buckles.

With a Sylvanfair pool party and barbecue on the horizon, I decided to get preparing. Sandals are my own crafting:

You see Lady Laphrael Miran'ta.
She appears to be a Half-Sylvan.
She is shorter than average and appears to have come of age. She has silver-flecked pale cyan eyes and soft, lily-white skin. She has long, flowing deep red hair. She has a delicate face, an upturned nose and thin eyebrows. She has a light peppering of freckles on her cheeks.

She is wearing a sea-green watered silk shawl, an iridescent sea green bathing costume with a wavy design, a short sea green silk skirt, and a pair of flimsy pale green thonged sandals.

Normal hunting outfit of late.


She appears to be a Dark Elf.
She is shorter than average and appears to have come of age. She has sultry jade green eyes and olive skin. She has waist length, ringleted deep red hair held in a loose chignon by some ebony hand-painted hairsticks. She has a dainty face, a classical nose and high cheekbones.
She has a polished firestone stud in her lip, a pair of entangled thorny vines tattooed in a coil around her thigh, and a twine-etched dark steel ring in her left eyebrow.
She is wearing a pair of long black horns, a pair of dangling lightless glimaerstone earrings, a fine steel stickpin, an antique silver armband, a narrow-bladed onyx dagger pendant, some shadowy black wings,a supple scale leather bodysuit, a pure black vultite shield, a supple ebony bag, , a faded leather bracelet wrapped with pale silk ribbon, a ditty bag, a small shadowy black velvet pouch, a well-oiled leather thigh-sheath, a gold-bound black pearl anklet, and some delicate gold slippers.

look shield
This wall shield is cut in an oval shape and the surface is colored a deep matte black. Inset into the shield is a large stylized flame, wreathed in tendrils of shadow. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.

look body
Rich and regal, the armor is striking and sophisticated in both look and design, despite the wear and tear of many years of use. Thin sanguine rivulets create sinuous flames tipped with thorns as they twist down the length of the supple leather, blending into the natural ebony color surrounding it. Each contour is accented by pale buckles carved from bones, fastening the braided cords that lace up each side of the armor. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.

look bag
Supple leather fades in color from rich ebony to sanguine at the hem. Surrounded by small firestone studs, an intricately-crafted symbol of Eorgina adorns the center of the bag. Clasps of firestone-flecked bone secure the container when closed.

look black wing
These wings are slick to the touch and extremly long, with arched tips that end in sinuous claws which can be made to grasp in the middle, bringing the wings closed. Along the ridges are small runes, which look to be painfully cut deep into the wings that lead to the apex, where a symbol of a silver-bladed scimitar on a field of crimson has been deeply burned.

She is in good shape.
She is wearing a sheer saffron silk face-veil, a dainty copper-link necklace, an orange agate bead-trimmed shawl, a pair of chain-linked armbands dangling carved citrine beads, a sleek-formed full leather corset, a series of copper bangles, a long saffron silk kerchief skirt, a dark scabbard suspended from a low-slung hip chain, and some flat-soled leather sandals fastened with gilded rings.
