The Lords and Ladies of Ubrary
-Westwood-
This was meant for just the rp, but the more I wrote the more I realized this would take like five replies by its self. So, I'm just gonna post it here for you instead since it's just easier to get it all in one block.
———————-
Guinevere sat by and kept a good hold on her hand. When the carriage stopped, she let the guards out before walking out as well, keeping a hand out for Anna.
The Ubrary royals were just as Anna would remember. The Elder Matriarch and her daughter the Silver Queen of the Drow, Lady Baldryl Ousstlar and Queen Olorae Ousstlar.
Baldryl was always the kindest of her family; an elderly woman with long, fraying white hair and skin as purple as the night, with crooked white teeth in the shape of spikes. She dressed for winter all the time, in a cotton dress and thick shawl that matched her fading blue eyes. She looked scarier than she actually was.
Her daughter, Olarae, the successor to her mother's throne and someone who previously had an unhappy marriage result in triplets, wore her tiredness on her beautiful face. She was the spitting image of her mother when she was younger. Her skin was so purple it was nearly black, and her blue eyes looked liked crystals against it. Her white hair was cut short, a Drow's way of singling that she was not interested in courtship. She was in both armor and a dress. Her armor covered her chest snd her metal boots covered the parts of her legs that were open from the cut of the dress. It was open in the front and draped in the back. She wore furs over her shoulders as well, to battle the cold of her homeland.
Next to them were the Asrai royals, Queen Amphitrite and her wife and consort, Lady Lausanne. The warrior queen was dressed for the occasion, sporting her golden armor passed to her from her past lover. Her skin was mostly teal, she wore her pink scars on her face and chest from past battles like trophies. Her armor was golden and matched the beautiful gold crown on her dark blue hair. Her fins were on her arms, back, and legs, and her ears were giant.
Lausanne, resembling more of an orca, had mostly white skin, expect for the sides of her face and around her eyes- which were silver- down her back, and down the back and sides of her legs. Her long, jet black hair was up in a ponytail, and she wore a naval coat that belonged to her wife over her bare chest. She had on shorts as well; since she preferred to swim everywhere, she had minimal clothes on. To much fabric got in the way of swimming, but they did cover themselves enough most of the time.
Next we're the Nymphs, the Mother of the Gardens and her three maiden daughters. The Mother of the Gardens was Dymitr Calidanea. Dymitr had brown skin with white freckles. Pinkish copper hair fell from her head in ringlets, making her look like a blooming flower. She didn't dress for battle, expecting this to be an easy transport mission, but her red eyes's stare made it clear she didn't need armor to defend herself. Her daughters all had titles to them as well.
The one on the left was The Leimoniads, Koriander Calidanea of the Meadows. Koriander most resembled Dymitr, with the same umber skin and ringlet hair, except her hair was a soft green rather than pinkish, and fell in her face freely more than her mother's structured look. She wore leather armor that was tough but easy to move in, her doe-like black eyes looking from the carriage to her mother and back.
The Napaea, Pomona of the Valleys was the second daughter, who looked more like her father than her mother. Her skin was a bit lighter, similar to her third sister's- her skin was a tawny color, much like an autumn leaf in the forest. Her hair was more wavy than coiled, and was a soft yellow color similar to grains of wheat. She had her mother's red eyes, unlike her sisters who had their father's inky black eyes. Her armor was also leather, and she held a casual grip on her sword. Funny enough, Pomona was a left handed fighter, but her sword was on her left. Arkyn and Anna watched terrible suitors learn the hard way in combat training that Pomona tested her opponents with her right hand before defeating them with her left.
The final sister was The Alseids, Despoina of the Groves. Despoina was the eldest of her sisters and the most wise; despite looking the most like their father, Despoina inherited Dymitr's cold stare. Her skin was the same reddish brown color as Pomona and her hair was the brightest of them all. Her long, silky white hair was pushed back and out of her face by the two sets of horns she inherited from her father. The front set rested near her forehead while the second set was closer to her ears, both leaning behind her like tree branches. Her white wasn't always white as well, when Anna last saw her she had just a strand of her natural brown hair left. Her hair lost pigment due to her poliosis, a condition which results in white spots and streaks in her hair. Many suspected her skin would be next and there was a patch of lighter colored skin under her black leather armor.
This left the Unseelie royals. These were the most confrontational to Anna's family. King Gammon Vaendaec was everything anyone would want from a militant king. Despite being known as a conqueror in his spare time, Gammon was actually a great king. He was more aggressive and prone to war than his Seelie counter part, but he was a man who respected the art of battle and wouldn't kill someone he found "to worthy to die." He was tall, with snow white skin and blondish hair he tied back in a high ponytail. He had a big beard that Roland always would make fun of, calling him Saint Klaus from Ostinian folktales, and a harden face completed by two bright pink eyes.
His wife, however, was the scarier looking of the two. Elaine Vaendaec was a woman who had endured The Curing a few thousands years back. Anna was supposed to learn about it this year, which- by Arkyn's reaction of puking in his classroom- was probably best not to know of for another few years. Elaine had the same snowy skin of most Unseelie, but her neck and jawline was covered black and creeped up her cheeks and chin like bloodstains or tears. They were dripping from her hairline as well and from the tips of her eyes. The whites of her eyes were also colored black from it, making her sky blue eyes pop. Her hands had the same treatment, and it was safe to say most of her body was colored that way. Her husband was in full plate armor, while Elaine herself just had some armor over her dress to keep her safe. She was a fighter too, but hadn't come here for a fight unlike Gammon.
