Overview
Alias(es): Lily Jewel, her otaku/cosplay name is Sailor Orchid.
Real Name: Lily Evaline Ericksen
Age: 22
Concept: Otaku College Student
Physical description: Mein
Lily has become a Resin Ball Joint Doll. Her features are perfect and accurate. If you look closely at her arms and legs, you can see seams that have been partly sanded away. Her fingers are now fixed into place, though they are somehow still able to lift and hold things. Her eyes are large, glassy, and a bright orange color. Lily no longer has natural hair; instead she wears a number of wigs, usually to match her mood. Lily is fond of wearing Gothic Lolita, popular Japanese fashion, and cosplay.
Mask
In her Mask, Lily has large pale brown eyes and flawless skin. Her hair changes according to her wigs, so she wears a long, black, wavy wig when she's going to school or appearing in public places (unless she's cosplaying, then she can wear whichever wig she likes without attracting attention). While her movement is graceful and natural, it always seems just a little forced, as though there is more friction going on in her joints than normal.
Mantle: Autumn- 2
Lily always has an orange or red leaf sitting in her hair somewhere. If it is brushed off for any reason, another falls back into place. There is also the feeling of anticipation around her. It's as though you are walking through a thick fog, or waiting for something to jump out from around the corner. Very thrilling.
Character Information
Lily is only mostly convinced she is safe here.
The Princess grew bored, placed her on a self. And Lily knew it was time to leave. The Hedge almost caused her more pain than the sanding of her seams and the removal of her hair, but to see the other side again...It was worth all the pain. She had arrived at a market... a funny market... Full of the strange creatures that had grabbed her months ago and sold her to The Princess. But The Princess was bored with Lily, she wouldn't have to worry about her again. She wandered the market, taking pleasure in seeing the fantastical wares on display.
She flinched when she heard the bear roar behind her. He was running right at her. He looked... familiar somehow... The part of her mind she had forgotten, the part that was still Lily Evaline whispered "Brother"... And he grabbed her, pulling her back to California. Back to her memories... Back home.
