Eva Zelorius

Foreword: Â Great idea!! Â Most everything here is subject to change depending on what we decide for Phase 3 beta with the rest of the appearance options are made available. Â Odds are there will not be any major changes though. Â Some may note there are a few subtle differences from 1.0 listed already. Â Most of this is borrowed from a draft of the wiki page, which we're still working on. Â This post will be edited shortly after Phase 3 once we've pinned down more of the specifics.

Face:
A pair of large, round amethysts examine nearly everything with childlike curiosity and smile in compliment with her lips, which are soft and full and most often are painted some shade of red. Â Her nose is gently rounded and of normal size and shape. Â Her face is framed by her long, straight hair and a smooth, feminine jawline. Â Probably the most striking feature on Eva's face is a gray tattoo in the shape of a gnarled tree branch which begins on the left side of her forehead, goes down at an angle over her eyelid, and tapers off in several directions on her left cheek.

Hair:
Yellow-blonde hair sweeps back from her brow and cascades down the entirety of her back, ending a bit below her waistline. Â It is soft, clean, and cared for fastidiously. Â She often wears a small braid within her hair to one side. Â Often when working or fighting she will tie it back in a ponytail to keep it out of her face, but she prefers to leave it be for the most part. Â She often threads her knitting needles within her hair when she's not using them as well.

Complexion:
Eva's skin is ashen like most duskwights, but it is pale and has a very slight gray-blue tint to it. Â It is smooth and soft, and very meticulously looked after. Â While in her early thirties, most might guess her age to be in the mid-twenties instead. Â With the exception of the tattoo on her face (see above) and two piercings at the base of each ear, her skin is entirely unmarred and unblemished.

Body:
By and far, her most prominent figure is her extremely ample bosom (yes she has enormous boobs). Â She often goes to great lengths to try (often in vain) to conceal this. Â Her body is soft and curvaceous; broad hips and a slender waistline give her a beautiful hourglass figure. Â Her arms and legs are moderately toned, though she lacks any significant muscle mass.

Fashion:
Having spent most of her adult life overweight, Eva is extremely self-conscious about her appearance, even though she is today considered by most to be stunningly beautiful. Â As a result she generally prefers robes, cloaks, shawls, and heavier garments that help conceal her overly buxom figure. Â She has had alterations made to armor in order to accomodate her oversized chest, and has found herself at times going as far as wrapping binding cloth around her torso before suiting up in armor. Â As a weaver by trade she is moderately aware of fashion trends and tries to meld her own conservative style with that what is popular in search of a happy middle ground.

She prefers white, purple, blue, black, gray, and green to other colors but has been known to wear the entire spectrum.Â She does not wear gold jewelry, preferring the look of silver or mythril (bluish).Â Her favorite gemstone is the opal.

Eva will wear more revealing garments when she knows she is alone (such as around her home). Â She has also been coaxed out of her proverbial shell on rare occasions by friends and has been seen wearing low-cut gowns for events such as masquerade balls and galas, and even the occasional casual social gathering as well. Â Recently becoming aware of the effect that wearing such clothing has - particularly on men - she has begun weaving more clothing designed to be low-cut, tight, or otherwise risque. She has not worked up the nerve to wear most of it herself, however.

We've had a fair bit of commissioned artwork done and to date these three depictions of Eva feel the most accurate representations of her - the first in particular stands out to us as being the truest representation of her:

Here are a few good screenshots of Eva as she'll appear in ARR from the Beta:

Here are a couple older hi-res screenshots from 1.0 as well, in various attire and lighting (though these are probably now somewhat outdated):

Also on the model/actress thread from awhile back, Gerik discovered for us Â this model, Claire Tully who looks a bit as we would imagine Eva - albeit with less mascara, paler ashen skin, longer elezen ears, etc.

Any questions about her may be PM'd to us. Â We're always glad to talk about her and her nuances!
