Here's how I imagine Lady Elizabeth Godwin when she was alive compared to her reanimated self. I was inspired by MANY different visual ideas and concepts like the original Frankenstein book, late 1880s strongwomen, and 1890s fashion.

Here was my aesthetic mood board!

Since the og Frankenstein book describes the flesh of the creature to be yellow and translucent, rather than the popular green flesh seen in most film adaptations, I applied the former to Godwin's flesh of her head. Plus I wanted to really go for that corpse like appearance, particularly with the hollowness of her eyes.

The outfit she wore on the night of her passing was inspired by late 1880s bustle dresses. I saw that the og book of Bram Stoker's Dracula is set in an unspecified year of the mid 1890s, so I had an idea to make her reanimated self reflect the clothing/dresses of that era. Like having her upper part be a balloon sleeve dress with a blouse, and the lower part being a scarp of fabric from a late 1800s Balayeuse. I mentioned in my first character designs for the main pcs that when Godwin asked Igor for clothes, I imagined he made an outfit for her based on scraps he had in Frankenstein's lab. This also included chainmail above the blouse and under the dress coat based off of a Victorian Burlesque outfit. Godwin's gotta protect her new body somehow haha

This last part is just me rambling at this point but I thought this was fun to include. The two women flexing are Josephine Schauer Blatt aka Minerva, and Laverie Vallee aka Charmion (right). They were both strongwomen in the late 1880s, with Minerva having great talent in weightlifting and professional wrestling, while Charmion also performed in vaudeville trapeze. Just a fun little discovery I came across when looking up muscular build ideas for Godwin based on Justin's description :)

Fantroll-Purgatory’s Revamped Guide to Alternian Trolls

“So since the Troll Call has released a veritable buffet of new trolls to observe, I, TR from fantroll-purgatory, have decided to revamp our old guide to Alternian troll fashion. I’ll also be taking into account new information presented in the Extended Zodiac and will be treating those 288 signs as the known canon ones from here on out.

Up top, if you read through this guide and feel I’ve missed something critical, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

We will start with general conclusions about Alternian fashion (bearing in mind, of course, that we still have a relatively small sample size from which to draw conclusions) and then do a quick breakdown by caste. Let’s go!

General conclusions

It looks like all trolls of the same caste have the same blood color, so you would use our alpha trolls as a color guide precisely. This means that your cuspblood fantrolls would be classed as mutants and would be treated as such.

Contrary to our prior assumptions, it seems that it is not mandatory for trolls to display their symbol in the center of a black shirt. Given that over half of the existing trolls do so, we can conclude that this is common. Furthermore, we only see two characters who display their symbol on their leg rather than their shirt or jacket, so such a thing is uncommon. There is only one troll who displays their sign on a pin that they have attached to their jacket, so that is creative but allowed.

Shirts may deviate from black, but if they do then they are typically white, grey, or blood-colored.

You don’t see trolls using a lot of color outside of their blood caste until you hit jadeblood or higher (and even then it starts with subtle accents). A notable exception is goldbloods, who use the colors of their vision two-fold as liberally as they would their blood color.

If trolls are using an accent that is neither their blood color nor the blood color of another troll, it is mostly in shades of red or pink that are different from rust and fuchsia.

Some trolls wear skirts, and some wear long shirts, but few trolls wear dresses.

Female trolls whose eyes we can see mostly have eyelash definition while male trolls largely do not.

Some of female trolls wear makeup in black or their blood color (and one of them wears undereye makeup in their blood color). Only one male troll wears makeup, so we can ascertain that Alternian gender norms fall roughly in line with Earth ones.

All trolls who have visible eyes have bags under them.

We see a few trolls with their hair in ponytails and buns! It is uncommon, but possible. Female trolls are also just as likely to have short hair instead of long hair, and male trolls seem to largely stick to short hair with just a few exceptions.

Only 3 trolls have color in their hair, and no trolls below jadeblood color their hair. Hair color is very uncommon.

Horns tend to be the same length unless broken (though goldbloods’ second set can be shorter than the first).

Horn decorations are not common, with only two characters who have respectively pierced and painted theirs.

We’ll move on to the specifics below the cut so as not to clog up your dashboard!

i think it's interesting how feferi and karkat are both on "opposite" ends of the hemospetrum meanwhile they are the only two trolls in their group that actually care about the empire and it's for opposite reasons, but it subverts typical expectations by showing how feferi's privilege allows her to oppose the empire while karkat's lack of privilege is what leads to him supporting the empire (because there really are no other options for him)

So Arizona launched an “education hotline” that allows “concerned parents” to report “””critical race theory””” and other things like ~gender identity~ being taught in the classroom

It would be a shame if the number and email were spread to bad actors looking to prank call the AZ Department of Education
