LaSombra and Toreador for Salomé? ✨

@scribesofcalamity

Lasombra - What's the most ruthless thing your OC has done? Why?

Probably the whole convincing people to have their limbs/eyes/teeth surgically removed to be replaced with her prosthetics for purely aesthetic reasons. Everything she designs is of the highest quality, made with the best available technology, but it's still all exceptionally medically unethical. Especially given that either her or her adoptive Tzimisce sire (name still TBD, I'm debating if just naming him John would be funny or not) will sometimes blood bond them during the surgical process just to ensure any potential regrets after the fact can be easily soothed away.

Toreador - Describe your OCs aesthetic in the worst way possible, then tell us what it actually is.

Her and her adoptive sire may match each other's freak but she isn't designing just for Tzimisces so their aesthetics aren't exactly the same. When it comes to clothing, Salomé likes to keep things fairly simple; solid, rich colors, nice fabrics, classically elegant silhouettes. Her accessories tend to be her more eye-catching pieces, and her prosthetics are no exception. She's done all sorts of designs over the years, from an eye prosthetic that looks like a lotus seed pod (if trypophobia things give you the ick, don't google it, it's not worth it), a leg with an outer shell that looks like a bird cage complete with an actual bird in her leg.

My favorite that I picture Salomé in the most often though is a matching set; her leg appears to be covered in red crystal points, growing out in various sizes all the way from ankle to mid-thigh, and her eye similarly has small crystal points, the largest extending about an inch out, the rest tapering off in size as they extend out toward her temple and hairline.

i have a pinterest board for her that i haven't fully refined to a point i'm happy with yet, but it's got her general vibe in there.
