    My Lumnis Priestess...

    She appears to be an Illistim Elf.
    She appears to be of a tender age and taller than average. She has silver-lashed misty grey eyes and silky smooth, fair skin. She has lustrous, hip-length silver blonde hair with an elaborate chain of loosely knotted loops hanging down from each temple. She has a delicate face, a small nose and 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 silver crescent-moon ring dangling a tiny moonstone pixie charm in the upper ridge of her left ear, a cascade of tiny silver stars tattooed over her right eyebrow that fades into her hairline, a tattooed symbol of Lumnis on her ankle, and a ring of silver stars tattoo on her neck.
    She is in good shape.
    She is holding some silvery moonstone prayerbeads in her right hand.
    She is wearing an antique silver filigree circlet, a flawless pure white moonflower tucked behind one ear, a thin silver crystal pendant, a clear glass vial, a rune-covered silvery rolaren shield, an embroidered white silk cloak, some flowing white silk robes with overly long drape sleeves edged in delicate silver beaded venise, a platinum wedding ring, a delicately etched silver case, a soft white leather gem pouch dangling from a delicate silver chain and a sparkling silver charm anklet.

    Lots of shows to minimise the length of the inventory, here are my favourites:

    >l prayerbeads
    Painstakingly threaded onto fine strands of translucent white spidersilk, each tiny perfect sphere of soft milky-white moonstone has been highly polished to accentuate its iridescent pearly-grey sheen and the blue-gold flashes of color visible when turned into the light. Soft shades of silver chase one another across each stone's pallid surface as the light strikes them all at differing angles.

    >l circlet
    An eternal symbol of elven nobility, this delicate and intricate headpiece has been worked from the purest fine silver threads elaborately linked to form a circlet. Suspended from the front is a small silver pendant holding a radiant silvery moonstone, meant to rest in the middle of the wearer's forehead. Hanging down from the headband in varying lengths are long silver strands, threaded with tiny silver beads which glisten like morning dew on a cobweb.

    >l shield
    So highly polished, the silvery surface of this magnificent shield dazzles the onlooker for an instant as it catches and reflects the light. As the bright glare fades, the image of an ethereal elven maiden is revealed surrounded by a myriad of mystical runes and symbols. Draped in flowing robes and smiling serenely, she stands in reverent pose as a silvery moonstone globe hovers over her outstretched hand. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.

    >l vial
    Encased in delicate silver filigree to protect the fragile glass, this vial hangs from a chain of fine strands of twisted silver. Around the narrow neck of the vial is a silver band engraved in fine elven script.
    There appears to be something written on it.
    >read vial
    In the Common language, it reads:
    Fairies tell us that small things can hold great truths.

    >l cloak
    This elegant cloak is fashioned from the finest of pure white silks with a deep hood favored by elven nobility. Falling to the floor in generous swathes of fabric even the tiniest movement illuminates shimmering traces of silver and blue thread embroidered across the back. Where the light touches it, it is possible to discern the image of a rising phoenix amidst a whirling zephyr of brilliant sapphire flames, shards of silvery moonstone twinkling like stars within its nebulous, translucent body.

    You arrange yourself on the throne.

    You attend to your gold wirework circlet, carefully smoothing the hair underneath, and adopt a regal air as you survey the area.

    You think to yourself, "I got this"

    Many of those shows are very well done. I especially like the circlet and the prayerbeads. My favorite though is most likely the robes. The only other comment I have is that it is an awful lot of white and silver, and I'd add some type of color into the mix just for overall appearance, but that's a personal preference obviously.

    I'm still all kinds of against items that TELL you they're beautiful, elegant, dazzling, but that's just me.

    Other than that, you all are very pretty!

    Those robes are my favourite too, they're the armor concealing kind so hide her ugly 5x elven fighting leathers nicely. And I've often thought it was a little too much white and silver myself so I'm toying with the idea of picking up on the blue embroidery of the cloak somehow. She has a phoenix on her cloak since she has a sapphire blue Foehn phoenix but I was thinking along the lines of ... Illistim... blue ... peacock .. but not sure how to work it in yet.

    Any suggestions?

    Are you against words like 'regal' or Menos' 'courtly air' his features suggest? I would be if my character had never seen a royal person in its life.
    Also I had to have the guards changed from Etched invar armguards to Deep black invar armguards becouse so many people didn't have a clue what shade/colour the metal was.
    For all they knew I could have been wearing.. <shudder> ..red.

    Yeah, I'm against those too. I like Menos a lot, he's a great guy, but those feature alters are way subjective.

    I like Tysander's outfit, and the new hair (the old hair bugged me, but he took my suggestion!) but I don't think it's really "traditional", given that males of Elanthia who don't wear kilts primarily wear pants, shoes, and a shirt, the same primary male clothes worn today. If it were a cotehardie, tunic, breeches, doublet, hose, whatever.. then I'd say traditional.

    Mind you, I've seen Tysander in a cotehardie and he does pull it off

    Yeah, Tysander's look isn't exactly traditional, but it is well put together as it is.

    Here's for today's meeting..

    You see Great Lady Lysistrata Scio.
    She appears to be a Nalfein Elf.
    She appears to be young and average height. She has slanting, mismatched grey and black eyes and intensely pale skin. She has long, perfectly straight deep scarlet hair swept smoothly back from a sharp widow's peak. She has a fine-boned, patrician face and meticulously groomed features.
    She is in good shape.
    She is wearing a circlet of dangling mirror-finished electrum teardrops, a hooded pale crane feather capelet, a high-waisted pale green-on-ivory jacquard gown with long pointed sleeves, and a pair of low-heeled cream suede slippers.
