Anytime, I happy to help.
You see Tareesa.
She appears to be a Vaalor Elf.
She appears to be young and untried and tall. She has smoky green-flecked dark lapis eyes and copper skin. She has long, straight gilt-colored hair with lustrous pale silver highlights that falls to just below her knees. She has a dainty face, a straight nose and high cheekbones.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing an elaborate Voln symbol, a thin black ribbon choker adorned with a mist-hued moonstone, a shadowy deep grey longcoat, a thin golden jackal-headed ring, a jet-beaded dark grey satin gown, and a pair of black dance slippers.
With a color reminiscent of thunder clouds, the fabric of this gown is sewn with hundreds of tiny jet beads that appear to fall like black raindrops along the skirt. The luxurious grey satin closely hugs the body of the wearer to accentuate feminine curves while the corset-style bodice helps create a sleek silhouette. The narrow skirt is split to the thigh and lined with sheer silk for comfort.

Love that line in the show.
And..looove those eyes and hair. Very nice.
Yeah, I love her hair, too. In fact, I think it's up on my site in the feature alter portion of the hall of fame.
YAY! Strata's wearing something I designed instead of the other way around! :DQuote:

First time doing this, so please, no laughing (unless it really, truly is funny, then...go ahead. ;) )
My main character..
You see Lady Cylnthia.
She appears to be an Ardenai Elf.
She appears to be young and robust and taller than average. She has twinkling, gold-flecked forest green eyes and fair skin. She has very long, deep red hair worn in a single braid.
She has a tattooed symbol of Imaera on her arm, a golden leaf tattoo on her neck, and some gold oak leaf-shaped rings set along the slender tips of her pointed ears.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a cedar-inset gold leaf symbol, a flowing black Ardenai silk cloak, a leaf-shaped Ardenai insignia, a leaf-crested rolaren weapon harness, a topaz-clasped black leather backsack, a spiked black elven hauberk, a leaf-etched rolaren bracelet, a gold ring, and some black leather boots.
>l cloak
Threads of deep black leather have been woven through the fabric to reinforce the delicate silk of this cloak. A pair of miniature topaz-hilted silver falchions crossed together clasp the cloak at the neck, while a stitched pattern of forest green oak leaves adorns the hem. The inside of the garment has been layered with a deep green leaf-patterned silk.
>l harness
This weapon harness appears to be made with great skill and care. Threads of rolaren are woven through, lending strength and durability to the material. The flap of the harness, clasped with an oak leaf-shaped emerald reminiscent of the House Ardenai, is stitched with a golden sheaf of grain on a field of green.
>l backsack
The inside of the backsack is lined with a deep green leaf-patterned silk and encloses a surprising amount of space within. The silk has been tailored from top to bottom with interlocking pockets of all shapes and sizes. Many of the pockets have various amounts of padding to help keep even the most delicate treasure safe. The leather flap of the backsack is clasped with a leaf-shaped sparkling golden topaz.
>l haub
The hauberk is crafted from blackened rolaren-chased rings which present no reflection of light. Well oiled interlinked rings reduce the noise of movement and give the armor the distinctive smell of a well maintained piece of equipment. The sleeves have been cleverly tailored to prevent binding or pulling when the wearer moves in combat and rolton wool padding lines the inside of the hauberk, providing some comfort for the wearer. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.
>l brace
You see your bracelet. Miniature golden herbs sprout from a pair of deep green entwined vines which encircle this bracelet. Each herb has been etched in fine detail, making it possible to recognize a wide variety of flora, many represented in multiple stages of life. Nestled between the vines on one side of the bracelet is a large, sparkling golden topaz engraved with a green oak leaf. A simple golden leaf marks either end of a short elven script written around the inside of the bracelet.
It is surrounded by a scintillating light.
>l boots
The soft, worn leather of these boots has been dyed black and is attached to the thicker soles by thin black strips of rolaren. The boot's clasps are comprised of a small piece of rolaren shaped into a leaf and embedded with a golden topaz. Lining the inside of each boot is deep green, leaf-patterned silk into which is sewn a pocket big enough to hide a small blade.
You tap a golden leaf tattoo.
>l tattoo
The gold ink of this leaf is surrounded by an emerald ink border. Veins of a darker green are woven into the leaf, drawn down to a point at the bottom of the leaf and ending in the stem. In the middle of the leaf in very small lettering is the word, "Kuon".
Red heads are heart breakers.
Shouldn't worry so much mgoddess, the outfit is spiffy!
