Okay. So I reactivated a bit ago and tried to get back into GS. But I couldn't. I canceled today. I just don't have the time between work and school and when I get home, there're other things I want to do. But hey, there were some things I enjoyed! Like the Solhaven crowd. And dressing my character, of course. Here she is, seen for probably the last time ever in a few of her outfits.
You see Lucriza.
She appears to be an Aelotoi.
She appears young and tall. She has wide smoke-rayed black eyes and smooth sable skin. She has long, glistening pure black hair falling slick and absolutely straight from an off-center part. She has a sharp, triangular face and high cheekbones. She has a pair of smoky crystalline wings.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a vivid star ruby seer-stone, a trailing lush midnight velvet gown with a single floor-length pendant sleeve, an antique carved bone ring, and a pair of pointed-toe suede slippers.
Seer-stone:
The stone itself is an elongated oval cabochon, the star within clear and perfect in symmetry, surrounded by a spiky sun-shaped narwhal ivory setting. A chain of fine white-gold links suspends the stone in such a way that it will rest over the third eye when worn.
Ring:
Carved from a single piece of bone, faintly yellowed with age, the band is a neverending loop of tiny otters frolicking in the surf of the ocean.
Or..
You see Lucriza.
She appears to be an Aelotoi.
She appears young and tall. She has wide smoke-rayed black eyes and smooth sable skin. She has long, glistening pure black hair secured into a spiral knotted bun by a trio of archaic wand hairsticks. She has a sharp, triangular face and high cheekbones. She has a pair of smoky crystalline wings.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing an amber-bound tiny scorpion pendant, an asymmetric rooster feather mantle, a trailing backless silk cotehardie spun with pearlescent black vaalin thread, and a pair of pointed-toe suede slippers.
Hairsticks:
Despite their obvious age, long past the point of function, the three golden wands have been kept and put to new use as ornaments. Time has deepened their hue to a richer tone but failed to dull the lasting craftsmanship of the carving on the handles. Each is covered in flames rendered in classical stylization, embellished here and there with thin curls of vaalin.
Pendant:
A small black scorpion has been forever captured in solid amber, livened by flecks of seeds and tiny air bubbles that still fail to obscure the scorpion's glistening dark carapace. The amber has been rounded and polished into a cabochon and mounted very simply on silver, then strung on a short chain.
Mantle:
The base of this abbreviated mantle is a layer of soft, thick suede, nearly invisible under the fluffy overlay of glossy feathers in tones of dark, burnished gold and emerald green. Most of the feathers are shorter in length, save a spray of long, showy black tailfeathers along the right edge of the mantle. A single twisted silk cord serves to fasten the mantle over one shoulder and under the opposite arm, rakish and asymmetric in style.
Or, more casual...

She is in good shape.
She is wearing a deeply cowled billowing black wool cloak, a suit of unadorned smooth black leather armor, an open-necked fine white cotton shirt, a pair of snug dark brindle hound skin pants, and knee-high cuffed leather boots.
There were more but didn't get every piece I wanted made. In playing an Aelotoi, I tended towards the "If she's wearing it, it must be tailored for her wings" mindset so I didn't mention the tailoring or cut in every alter.
