Aeili's bio is in my signature below although I think I've been a bit light on the physical description there for portraiture.

I need to go to work now but I'll write a more detailed description for you in about 8 hour's time which you can have a look at on Friday.

And the cost is fine, yes.

I've attached some screenies which were a part of my previous commission application (you might have that sitting in your inbox still)

Thanks so much!

I can't fully remember what I wrote and in fact I was clearing out my old PMs only this week and that was one I remember deleting! Grr, fate, how you torment me thus!

Anyway, considering that this will be a portrait and not a full body drawing I should like to modify whatever I said before with the following:

Health: IC over the last 3 months Aeili has been recovering from a genetic illness she has which is currently in regression. Her cheeks may be ever so faintly hollow or gaunt, as with her eyes/eyesockets. In general, she is slim, sickly so, although having spent the last 3 months recovering amongst the elves of En Dharasha in the Misty Forest has renewed her vitality significantly (but it should still be noticeable).

Mood: Contemplative, contented. I would like Aeili to look like she has just been praying, and she might have a very faint smile of contentment. I think it would be fantastic if she could be in a pose toying at her neck with one hand upon a silver holy symbol of Mystra



which is attached to a silver necklace, normally concealed beneath her robes. In the centre of Aeili's symbol of Mystra is an impressive Star Sapphire. Aeili wears no other jewellery except for a magical ring on each hand (middle or ring fingers). You have a license to creativity with these!

Tattoos: As for the tattoos on her cheeks, I should like to continue with the thought of having Correllon's and Sehanine's symbols upon the upper part of each cheek, very small in size (ie. about the size of a fingernail)

The images show that Aeili has forehead tattooing but I am as yet undecided if I want it to actually be a written language or just arcane decorations. I have typically been roleplaying them as something she received after having completed 100 years of study in Taltempla's school of magic on Evermeet.

Some plausible options:

1. Leaving them as the faint pairs of dots, to be embellished according to your artistic flair.

2. Draconic Text, 5 letters on each half of forehead with a single smaller dot underneath each. (Text translates as Century of the Art)

Sorry i didn't meant to leave the red line, it was just a screenie from MS Word cuz that's how bad my art skills are!

I'll let you be creative with those.

Location: Either inside the temple as per one of the screenshots, or if its easier for portraiture you may wish to put her outside under the moonlight of a starry sky. Aeili is a diviner/astrologer in her spare time so that would be just as beautiful a setting as inside the Temple of Mystra.

Thank you so much for your consideration and this wonderful opportunity! I can't wait to watch the replay of you feed! Seriously I would watch it live except the time will be some ungodly hour early in the morning (I live in GMT +10 timezone so that translates to like 4am? And though i wake up that early on weekdays for work, I do value my weekend sleep ins )
