Yeah thanks I can read. Now it just means that it looks like she has black nipples. Fanfuckingtastic.

Clearly, they need to allow development of more of this Faendryl-style clothing.

if it was truely a hardcore Faendryl, it would have been a gown of nearly transparent bourde with cut-out nipples :P

ROFL. Lack of spelling skillz too. Just FYI, I got a rather indignant PM last night from the person who is responsible for that design, she specifically wanted to tell me that she DOES NOT CARE AT ALL what I think. Watch your inbox, she might not care what you think, either.

This next item is "Truly Tasteless".... I'll let y'all point out what's wrong with it...

a pale silver silken satchel (Show: Crafted from the finest spidersilk, the harness seems to shimmer with the slightest hint of light. Stitched into the side of the harness is a scene of a mighty wizard perched high atop a platform. She seems to be laughing softly to herself as she gazes down on the masses of nameless souls beseeching her for magic and power.)

Wow I don't even know where to begin with that. Did it actually get made or is it just an idea someone wants to get done?

I know this is a bad/ugly alter, but I've seen a few outfits. Think he likes black and onyx enough? Yes, name has been omitted for obvious reasons, and I've broken up the features from the pierces for easier viewing


You see Lord XXXX
He appears to be a Giant of the T'Kirem Clan.
He appears to be youthful and very tall. He has piercing crystal blue eyes and golden brown skin. He has long, shiny black hair worn in a single braid. He has a clean-shaven face, a straight nose and broad shoulders.

He has a black onyx stud in his left eyebrow, a small silver hoop shaped as strangler fig vines in the upper ridge of his left ear, a trio of thick mithril spikes tipped with onyx in his right eyebrow, and a trio of mithglin hoops with bone-beaded raven feathers in the upper ridge of his right ear.

He is in good shape.

He is wearing an elegant onyx medallion engraved with a silver-edged black sword, a filigreed sleek onyx pendant, a voluminous black stalking cloak, a small Silvergate pin, a Warrior Guild member pin, an onyx studded serge sash, a solid vultite armband, an onyx-inlaid black leather thigh-sheath, a black bandana, a blue bandana, a brass-bound leather Adventurer's Guild badge, an onyx-trimmed black weapon harness, a blackened vultite tower shield, a black mail backpack, some dark krodera-studded brigandine with a silver-edged black sword emblazoned on the shoulders, an intricate gold ring, a carved onyx signet ring etched with a willow tree, a wide black leather utility belt, a black mithril mesh sack, a silvery imflass war horn etched with a pair of crossed claidhmores, a sturdy dark leather gem pouch, some reinforced black leather pants, a vultite bound centaur hide dagger sheath inlaid with sapphires, and some dusty black leather hiking boots.

You see Sedda Blackmoon the Buccaneer.
She appears to be a Half-Sylvan.
She appears to be in the bloom of youth and average height. She has sultry icy green eyes and tanned skin. She has exotic, waist length, sable hair with crimson tips and sweeping crimson bangs. She has a delicate face and slightly pointed ears.
She has an opaline moonstone stud in the upper ridge of her left ear, a polished black moonstone stud in the upper ridge of her right ear, and a silver crescent moon tattoo on her neck.
She is in good shape.
She is holding a cross-gilt silver tower shield in her left hand.
She is wearing a moonlight silver silk toolkit, a pair of tight-fitting dark sable leather pants that seems to blend almost perfectly with the shadows, a leather purse, a silk satchel fastened with a leather drawstring, an eonake wedding ring adorned with a gleaming white tiger shaped moonstone etched with scintillating stripes of onyx, a sinuously curving silver bracelet set with dark moonstones, a black leather armband, an engraved chain hauberk, a resplendent black shadowed silk backsheath adorned with white stalking tigers, a white-specked twilight rose, a sleeveless sable vest, a supple leather thighband, a pair of shadowy gloves with razor sharp crimson-gilded claws attached to each fingertip, some crimson satin wristwraps, a sleek black leather bodice with fitted black leather sleeves, a shadowy-hued regal cloak designed to blend with the shadows, a scorched red glaes chain, an opalescent moonstone talon dangling upon a twisted silver chain, a veined black satin face mask, and a pair of black thigh-high tall heeled boots fastened with moonstone clasps at each ankle.

Really...where do you START with that bag of fun?

I think the highlight for me, are the items with that "blend with the shadows".

The sad part is, if she moved and REMOVED some of that stuff it wouldn't be half-bad.

You see Gooden.
He appears to be a Half-Krolvin.
He is very tall and appears to be very young. He has uneven dark eyes and dark skin. He has a bald head. He has a flat nose and a curled mustache.
He has a silver-banded black invar pipe clenched between his teeth.
He is in good shape.
He is wearing some dark grey gak wool boots, a dark leather loincloth with an elongated front panel, an onyx studded light brown sack, a faded leather belt, a large gold ring, a wiregrass bracelet, a sun and moon-embossed leather breastplate, a veniom-mesh imflass haversack, a glistening sea-blue buckler, an enruned garnet pin, a brass-bound leather Adventurer's Guild badge, a translucent spidersilk cloak, a blackened brass necklace, and a cracked porcelain half-mask.

The first one. Wow. The second just doesn't make any sense.

08-19-2007, 10:07 AM
:rofl: Yay one of my oldest alterations made the cut! I have to admit guys, the strategic beads dress was mine long ago but the colors, fabric and beads were totally different then. Debia bought it from me in an auction 2 or so years ago and I guess its changed hands since then even.

Let the whipping begin now. I know, I know, its a trashy gown, and it was meant to be when I made it. I still think its humorous that I managed to get it done AND that it then got changed around a bit and wound up here.

You see Abrellyn.
She appears to be a Giant.
She is shorter than average and appears to be very young. She has long-lashed stormy grey eyes and fair skin. She has shoulder length, tousled dark auburn hair. She has a plump face, a petite, freckle-smattered nose and chipmunk-like, flabby cheeks.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing some fringed deerskin boots, a pair of elk hide breeches, a small bone-beaded pouch, a quilled leather tunic, a quilled deerskin backpack, a simple canvas purse, a red clover blossom, a little round mirror, a crystal amulet, an elk horn headdress, and a gold-trimmed leather wand belt.

This_One
08-19-2007, 06:21 PM
And then there is...

You see Apprentice Viendal deSade the Rock Collector.
He appears to be a Burghal Gnome.
He is taller than average and appears to be immature. He has purple-flecked jade green eyes and fire-scarred pale skin. He has long, wiry ecru hair streaked with a vivid bolt of magenta. He has a round face, a thin nose and slightly pointed ears.
He has developed slurred speech.
He is wearing a tall black conjurer's hat, a pale crystal shard, a small golden Paupers pin, a lead-bound ceramic Adventurer's Guild badge, a silk-threaded black stave harness, a vaalin-trimmed leather wand harness, a sable hide pack, some fitted elven casting leathers, a scorched components satchel, a red hide sack, and a pair of silver trimmed boots.

He was SO upset when he saw he had pink hair. It was funny!

You see Mephedity Conbatz.
She appears to be a Human.
She is taller than average and appears to be very young. She has sparkling hazel eyes and tanned skin. She has waist length, curly brown hair with lighter streaks. She has a delicate face, a sharply upturned, piglike nose and pouting lips. She has a miniscule beauty mark perched on her cheek just beneath her left eye.

How does a beauty mark perch?

Well, yes! :lol: I had the gown made about 4 years ago, maybe longer, and sold it a long time ago to Debia at the first EE auction. That is either the exact same dress with the fabric, color of the beads and the hemline changed..or someone ripped off the design and changed those things to make their own. Either way, its my old design and yes, it's trashy!

Yah well, I sucked at designs when I first started out and I think that all of us self-proclaimed fashion divas have designs that we wish we'd never made. It doesn't embarass me really, I just laugh it off and admit that yes, it's horrible and yes it was mine. Thank God I've gotten at least somewhat better at it since then. :D

Sounds like some people got the bad end of the festival feature alter. Don't remember which shop, or who it was, but you rolled two die. The first referenced the item you altered, the second was what the merchant altered "And it won't be pretty" or something of the nature.

Edit: Unfortunately, not sure which was the bad one on the second person.

Hahahahaha, that's funny. Considering that the "designer" of said Faendryl gown - Telsas - was AT the EE auction, it all makes sense now!

So she's not a bad designer at all, she's just not good at picking which designs to rip off.

A nice example of too much of a good thing:

You see Lady So-and-so the Battle Mage.
She appears to be a Dhe'nar Dark Elf.
She is tall and appears to have come of age. She has sultry violet eyes and fair skin. She has waist length, ringleted jet black hair that tumbles down her back in a cascade of wispy cherry-tinted curls. She has a dainty face, a small nose and slightly upswept pointed ears. She has ruby-tinted pouting lips.
She has a tattoo of gold cascading stars on her neck, and a blooming cherry tree tattoo on her ankle.
She is in good shape.
She is holding a twisted oak runestaff capped with a sapphire storm griffin in her right hand.
She is wearing a crimson blazestar ferroniere on a herringbone vaalorn chain, some white cherry blossom earrings, a dark ruby cherry pendant on a delicate silver chain, a flowing black cherry velvet cloak, a tiny silver dragon nose ring with dark ruby eyes, a low-cut black cherry satin bodice, a black cherry suede wand harness with a carved silver buckle, a ruby red backpack, some opal-inset jet black hunts, a bleached baby squirrel skeleton bracelet, a violet crystal-inset ring, a soft black cherry suede pouch with a silver clasp set with a dark ruby cherry, a black cherry silk tote clasped with a silver pawprint, a pair of black cherry suede pants laced up the sides with silver silk cords, a delicate silver chain anklet with dangling cherry-shaped ruby charms, and a pair of ruby red dance slippers.

She is tall and appears to be very young.
She has a shimmer of silver on her eyelids, beautifully onyx-outlined sultry, thickly-lashed violet eyes, rose pink cheeks, glossy rose pink full lips, and powdered, soft, tanned skin.

Is it me or is that eye/eyelid alter plain horrible? I had to read it 5 times before I just finally reached the conclusion that my first impression was correct and that it just plain sucked.

I think it breaks at least two makeup-wearing rules.

1. Emphasize only one feature of the face -- eyes or lips or cheeks, but not all of them at once.

2. If it's obvious you're wearing it, you're doing it wrong.

Clearly #2 is almost impossible to maintain in a text-based game. Nonetheless, subtlety is key when wearing makeup (unless you're a call girl). In my opinion at least, it fails. :down:

So I know we throw bits and pieces of her up here, but it really doesn't give its full awesomeness to not show the entire picture:

You see Foxs Neuane the Adventurer.
She appears to be a Faendryl Dark Elf.
She is shorter than average and appears to be extremely young. She has shimmering, mismatched light mauve and dark amethyst eyes and ebon skin. She has waist length, lustrous platinum hair that flows down her back in a cascade of gentle ripples. She has a delicate face, a classical nose and sharply-curved pointed ears. A diminutive and faint birthmark accents the side of her neck, its shape appearing almost purposeful and emblematic, but with no clues as to an origin.
She has a thin black diamond ring in the upper ridge of her right ear, a thin dark diamond ring in the upper ridge of her left ear, and a chain of intricate runes tattoo on her thigh.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a braided leather circlet suspending a faceted diamond, an elven-styled vaalorn necklace, a shimmering flame red fox fur mantle with a black diamond sigil structured into an Eorgina symbol, a back-laced tightly-fitted corset embroided with the image of Beh'Amant, some ancient Faendryl-crafted brigandine traced with obscure black diamond runes, a platinum wedding band set with a star-of-Tamzyrr diamond, a black leather dragon-buckled sword-belt with a diamond-edged slender eahnor longsword hanging from it, an Eorgina crested rolaren-handled whip twisted to a resemblance of a giant ebon white-tipped fox tail, an elven leather hip-scabbard, and some crimson fox fur-lined suede boots.

And on that note, WTMF is Beh'Amant?

Belly button piercings could be argued to be in-genre due to how old you can trace them back to. Nipple piercings, too.

Since "pencils" are modern, I don't think we'll see those ever, but we're already seeing bellbottom pants (I've seen flaring pants, pants that flare from the knee, flare from the hip and boot-cut). Pencil pants would probably just be "slim-legged" "slim-fitted" or something along those lines - and that already exists.

As for the chandelier earrings, I absolutely love them! I just wish that we could somehow convert 'pin worn' earrings to be able to be worn in the ear piercing slot.

She is very tall and appears to be in the prime of life. She has emerald lashed, brilliant cobalt green eyes and pale skin. She has shoulder length, wavy sandy blonde hair. She has a freckled nose and full, silken lips and tiny dimples. Below her left eye is a small, dark birthmark that oddly resembles a poison ivy leaf.
She has a curly blond ponytail, a conspicuous blond human tattoo on her wrist, and a small empath tattoo on her neck.
She has a scar across her neck, old battle scars on her left leg, old battle scars on her left hand, an old battle scar across her chest, an old battle scar across her back, and a scar across her face.
She is holding a spiraling empath's staff with the word WAIT carved into the side in her right hand and some cactacae spine in her left hand.
She is wearing a pair of poison green slippers, a leaf green viper skin skirt, a poison green suede sack threaded with a cloth patch that reads, "Beware of FeFe", an emerald satchel stitched with "Green Stones Only Please" on the flap, an ornate poison ring, a poison green wristlet inset with a tiny emerald, some green leathers dyed the exact shade of unripe bananas, a green bank-shaped pack, a fuzzy green tail with singed ends, an emerald green satin bodice with small shadowy figures peeking from behind the lacing, an embossed platinum symbol, an invar-bound suede Adventurer's Guild badge, a black regal griffin insignia, and a droopy-eyed amber hued lizard.

Now, I have color words highlighted in Wizard to appropriately match their, well, color. Suffice it to say: The blinding wall of green, it hurts, it HURTS.

I guess I look at bad themes as contributing to bad alterations overall.

"Exactly the shade of unripe bananas"? I've seen a lot of shades of unripe banana, including bruised brown-spotted ones, which is ALSO a variation of unripe. So are her green leathers also brown-spotted? It's just terribly confusing, not to mention subjective.

And WHAT is a bank-shaped pack to my character? It's too damned vague. Does it look like a large nondescript building? A stately Roman-columned facade? If I can't look at it and figure it out what she's getting at, we've got problems, Houston.

We'll have to agree to disagree I suppose. I think of bad alterations as those that don't fit within guidelines. As in poorly worded, too long to fit the rules, etc. I don't consider their taste being different from mine to be a 'bad alteration', simply an 'ugly alteration' because its not what I would consider pretty.

Though, after considering what you said about the bank-shaped, I can concede, I just guess I suppose that many people have a general idea of what an object is shaped as and use that when looking at something. Just like a 'sword-shaped pin' or 'a monkey-shaped pack' - people would just take a general idea of a sword or monkey (as examples mind you) and consider that. However, i would wager that there are many different types of banks in Elanthia so I'll concede that. As for the unripe? Eh, I don't really think its worth nitpicking in that case to worry over whether the leathers have brown spots or not. (Not to mention, i consider bananas with brownspots to be OVERripe, not unripe, or BRUISED as opposed to unbruised. Since she didn't mention bruised, I would wager that it doesn't have brown spots, but instead is the shade of light green that a banana typically is.)

You would consider correctly, then. Bananas don't get brown before they ripen. Before they are ripe, they all start the same shade of green, and they NEVER get brown until well after they turn yellow, are overripe, and begin to bruise. You just won't have a green, unripe banana with brown spots, period. So to anyone who has actually seen a banana before it was ripe (and i'm willing to wager most have), that alter makes sense (especially because she called them green leathers, so there's no room to guess whether she meant not yet ripe, or overripe). Still, it's an ugly as shit alter. But it makes sense, kk.

Yes, but an over-ripe banana is still technically UNripe. Also, I've bruised unripe bananas before... banana skin is just plain wimpy. I'll stuff it in my bag or purse and it comes out looking like a redheaded stepchild. :bananahit:

Another theme one..

You see Lady Naidalie Nixie the Piper.
She appears to be a Half-Elf from Torre.
She is shorter than average and appears to be extremely young. She has clear, crystalline brilliant ocean blue eyes and soft, smooth, sun-tinted skin. She has mid-length, layered henna-hued hair accented by several braids woven with beach grass scattered throughout the tresses. She has a delicate face and slightly pointed ears, and a smattering of henna-hued sun freckles along her nose and cheekbones. A flawless star emerald is positioned between her eyes, which casts a sparkling ocean green sheen across her face.
She has a trio of tiny blue sea glass rings cut to resemble the ocean's waves in the upper ridge of her left ear, a tiny iridescent seashell stud in the upper ridge of her right ear, a iridescent seashell nestled in a tuft of beach grass tattooed on her ankle, and a swirling blue and green ocean wave crashing on a sandy beach tattooed on her waist.
She is in good shape.
She is holding some pale ivory sandals in her left hand.
She is wearing a pair of sea shell adorned sandals, a white anemone and jasmine anklet interwoven with ocean blue ribbons, a summery white cotton skirt, an extravagantly gilded conch shell, a mesh beach grass tote fastened with an iridescent seashell, a woven beach grass trinket pouch, a pearlescent blue abalone ring etched with an ocean wave, a twisted driftwood ring, an opalescent shell bracelet, a gold fertility bracelet, a netted ocean blue cotton rucksack, a white cotton collector's bag, a driftwood instrument case, a wave-crested silver mithglin insignia, a blue-blushed white water lily tucked behind one ear, a soft white cotton half-bodice, a blooming white anemone handflower, an iridescent tempest shell armband, a fitted ocean-blue cloak, a grass-strung driftwood mirror, a polished driftwood Niima symbol, a gold-strung blue seaglass pendant, and some ocean blue vultite brigandine.f

At least it's better than the two strategically placed onyx gems I saw on a dress once. That was god-awful.

Considering it's a bodice, I don't see the big deal with this alter since bodices generally go over something else. It's not really that revealing.

Even if it is, so what. It's not like there aren't a billion elves with shimmering waist length hair with some stupid shit over their face that makes them irresistable or whatever else. Some people like to look alluring. Nothing wrong in that.

One day, I wanna see something with 'fresh-looking rune' instead of those tired old ancient runes

Ever since a few weekends ago I can't look at this shit without thinking of an item with BRIGHT FRIDGE-MAGNET ABC'S, stuck on it, hahahaha

What possesses the merchants to agree to do those alters in the first place, have they no pride in their work?

Probably because it's bad customer service to say, "That's ugly, and you're stupid for wanting it. Get some decent taste and come back."

There are some hideous REAL outfits out there that people fight over to buy in stores. I don't see it any different. You gotta have the tacky people to keep it even. :D

I have to nominate some of the clothing made for sale from A Twist of Roses. I know the GM tried... I really do.. but.. oh my god.

a form-fitting gown of crystal-dusted hemlock green velvet
a pair of black-on-black velvet breeches


The first one just makes me cringe. Form-fitting, velvet, the color, the sequin-like crystals.

Then there's the breeches. I look at them and think PORNO pants, or just about violence.

a cloak of cloth so fine and dark that it swirls around the body like a shadowy cloud.

Almost of all this persons stuff makes my eyes bleed.

You wouldn't happen to have a list of all the clothes there, would you? I meant to look while Michi was in Ta'Illistim and never got around to it.

a pair of black-on-black velvet breeches
a whiteworked pale blue linen chemise with ivory lace cuffs
a starlight silver silk bodice lined with midnight blue
a deep blue side-cut velvet skirt with pale blue undertones
a shimmering black satin dress rose-cut to reveal ivory silk
an ermine-trimmed vermilion velvet gown with dagged sleeves
a fitted gown of deep black faille with ivory rose buttons
a form-fitting gown of crystal-dusted hemlock green velvet

Not a complete list-- I'll post a complete a little later. Either way, my characters prolly won't be wearing much from that shop :(

It looks like they took the items already there and just uglied them some more. *shrugs* I will not be getting anything from that shop, I'm kind of disappointed that it's not better than it was before, I thought for sure it changing, would be a good thing.

Yeah, I was incredibly disappointed. The only "elven" thing in it is the gelderalads-- no overgowns and cotehardies, no marbrinus or even varities of silk, no cotehardie and leggings for the men, no pointy slippers.

I don't think they used any of the gem documents, either-- I thought at least like, a diamond medallion would be available or something but there's just like feystone (which among elves is supposed to symbolize insanity, heh).

A select few items were okay, but overall, I was incredibly disappointed.

Nothing excuses crystal-dusted hemlock green velvet. Nothing.

You see Lady xxxxxx xxxxxxx the Gameswoman.
She appears to be an Ardenai Elf.
She is taller than average and appears to be in the spring of life. She has sultry thick sooty-lashed almond-shaped sparkling emerald eyes and tanned skin. She has ankle length, cascading platinum hair that has a slender braid at the temple adorned with a slender silver hawk feather dangling lapis lazuli beads. She has an angular face, an aquiline nose and slightly pointed ears.
She has a constellation of diamond chips netted in silver strands in the upper ridge of her right ear, a shadowy meadow tattoo on her neck, a trio of laje rings dangling a black diamond half-moon in the upper ridge of her left ear, a black-lined lunar eclipse tattoo on her neck, a black widow spider tattoo on her waist, and a black rose tattoo on her ankle.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a vine-etched Ardenai imflass shield, a crimson-swept ebony rose pendant, a slim ivory lynx fur pelisse strung with a burnished vaalin chain, a carved obsidian crow pin, an alexandrite-bound ironwood Adventurer's Guild badge, a low-cut scarlet leather half-bodice, a scarlet leather pack jewel-set with black onyx beads, some fitted black elven leathers, a sleek midnight black bracer embossed with a black widow, a red griffin embossed bracer, a filigreed mithril alloy bracer, a bright gold ring, an ancient woven Ardenai bangle, a rune-stitched black silk gem pouch, a plain-looking sack, a side-slit webbed leather skirt, some sheer black silk stockings with seams down the back, a silver-traced white diamond anklet, and some spike-heeled scarlet leather boots.

I think this character needs to be nominated for an Extreme Makeover GS addition.

Romelo just opened a rune-traced black bag with silver sigils of life and death.

Lethra offers Valakas some ghastly white leather embroidered in grey thread with the scene of a giantman slaying zombies.
