Court Lady of Santharia Posing for Formal Portrait

Clearly this self-possessed lady knows how well blue and black accents set off her eyes. Note the gnomish embroidery on the gown and the tinted court wig with its matching hairpiece.

I wonder what the formal occasion was which occasioned this formal portrait?

Perhaps you know, or can even tell me this noblewoman's name?

Another great one, Judy! Lots of details on that dress, executed with real love for detail! Don't find anything wrong with this one, it's all there and deserves a well-earned aura +1! clap

Looks like a mild noblewomen invasion we have to deal with lately... I only hope we get some ideas where to put them all, because these beautiful pics definitely should be on the site somewhere! So any ideas are welcome!

I believe that she's a contestant in Santharia's Next Royal Modeller!

Her nickname is Remusario because at the wedding of her sister, she reportedly didn't wear any underwear ... or so says the younger brother of her new brother in law. Whether or not she did in fact wear underwear is uncomfirmed at the moment by the Compendium, although it is believed that Compendiumist Altario Shialt-Eck-Gorrin has offered to research the matter for the Compendium ... just for the purposes of knowing the truth about the matter, of course.. It is said that she and said younger brother are comforting each other on the recent break ups of their own relationships ... although rumours have it that she could be back together with her former lover, the Kyranian merchant and gambler Bruash Talidur, and so poor young Frankis Maliston seems to be unlucky in love again. evil

I'm distinctly impressed by the portrait. I wonder what the lady is hiding in her hands. To me, it looks as if she was preparing a spell. But I don't want to storm ahead with ideas before others have had a chance to give their interpretations.

Do we have blue aura points? *Looks in every corner* Well, I guess an ordinary one will have to do!

Alt - and Dek for that matter - rumor has it that you need not bother with the mirror for the purposes of that particular investigation. Merely speak sweetly and carry a big stick.

Master Bard, your exceptional skill in the depiction of cloth and finery leaves the rest of art guild with the daunting challenge of ...well...catching up with your exceptional skill.

Well done. Love the dress. Aura +1
