Contest: Xantara
Deadline: when I have enough entries
Entries: ( 4 )
Ok so I have this character called Xantara or Ara for short, she’s sort of an elemental. What you have to do is make a doll of her, she’s an alien so she can basically be from any culture, have weapons etc. The doll must be made with this description in mind.
She was definitely female and humanoid but, her appearance is hard to describe,
Like an embodiment of Middle Earth. But that doesn’t even begin to tell you what we saw.
Her skin was like clay, not just in colour but in texture, like damp grey clay except
it was skin as well. Her eyes were fire, not on fire but actual fire. Her hair was one of
the most wonderful things I had ever seen, it was like the sea on a crystal clear day swirled
with air, a mixture of air and water, like ice and clouds. As wondrous as it sounds it was
even more so in the flesh. She was dressed in a strange outfit that seemed to be made of leaves
and was also tightly bound, though the cords seemed to be moving, wriggling around.
She sat up
and smiled, her teeth glinting in the waning moonlight like mithril,
“Hello... My name is
Xantara Febridë.”
You can look at some of the dolls I've made of her in the Characters section or read the story (well the part that's written).
