Heh. The whole being Lawful thing isn't working out perfectly for her, admittedly...

But it makes for fun RP.

And hey, La'laskra is totally Lawful and stuffs. <.< >.>

Thanks for the comment!

Thanks, Yma23!
Thinking on it, I hope its ok, but I'm gonna do it.

It is a longtime friend of mine who did the character art for this, and she is something of a starving artist and does commissions. So I am gonna post her deviantart web-page and commission info.

Shi'nidya misses witch Vida. It's so hard for her to go to the surface and visit people. <.< >.>

Red eyes now!

Sweet draw... maybe so sweet for a drow, but cool!

She has pale silver eyes, actually. I checked the available Dark Elf eye colors and red is only the most common (like brown irl) there are a few other rarer colors available.

And because I was too silly to mention it in my OTHER post, she is a "young" drow, the equivalent of 17 or so, so she might have a few less hard edges in her appearance than a more womanly Drowess might.

She is still youthful, lean from a lifetime of athletic exertion, and yes, a touch more innocent than an older drow woman might be.

Yup. Pink hair and blue eyes are canon drow colors. *Goes off to roll one*

http://forgottenrealms.wikia.com/wiki/Drow

In many ways, drow resemble eladrin.[5] Drow have obsidian colored skin and pale yellow (or pale golden)[citation needed], silver or white hair, the latter being by far the most common. This hair is carefully groomed and cared for by most drow and worn long with jewelry and other accessories decorating it.[6] Like all elves, drow are incapable of growing beards, though many males are fond of long sideburns.[7]

Drow eyes are usually bright red, but some are known to have different colored, commonly much paler, eyes such as blue, lilac, pink or silver.[8] Sometimes their eyes are even green which would implicate that this particular drow has some surface elven blood in their veins[citation needed]. They usually vary in height between 5'4" and 6', and weigh between 130 to 175 lbs on average.[5]

Drow have lifespans far beyond that of humans and comparable with the rest of the elves, although usually somewhat longer. This is, of course, presuming the drow doesn't meet a premature and violent end, as many often do, but those that survive the trials of their society and the horrors of the Underdark can live for centuries,[7] sometimes as long as 1000 years or more.

Yeah, I wasn't being sarcastic. Check your Monster Manual.

Well... I was refering to the level 20 monkish skill (perfect self) that gives you glowing eyes within the immunity to hostile mind effets and RD 20/+1... Red glow for LE, Blue for LG and Pink for LN...

Just mechanics... Nice draw and that's all.

Well, if Shi'nidya keeps her LN alignment for the next 5 levels, she's gonna have the LN eyes.



She's not evil, and its been FUN to be not evil, because it gets her in trouble that is fun. ^_^

Your speaking about characters who stick around for years already. They could hardly pretend to be a fresh teeneger walking out of the house...when eveyone remembers them for tens of IG years :D

But look at most new made drow, you will find teenegers.
