So feedback on the character? Feedback on the article?

OOCly Saede is interesting. I mean she comes off as a little looking-down-at-you, but that's her personality, especially as such a forward thinker. What she does may seem odd and down right wrong to some people, but she does it because she cares. She just has an off way of showing she cares.

Interesting character, strong on the outside, maybe not so strong inside? Interesting stories surround her, ESPECIALLY with that station thing eating everyone.

9/10. not 10/10 just cause Anslo (c) isn't too happy with her :p

The article is great. It hints to who she is while raising enough questions to make her interesting.
About the char: I haven't really seen much of her apart from what happened in Silas' wine cellar during her festus, but going by the article I'd say I'd enjoy interacting with her.

Interesting backstory and a striking appearance, hope to see more.

bumping this. Requesting suggestions on how to better flesh out the wiki page, as well as for how to make Saede look more queer in the character creator.

Play with eyes a bit and see if you can axe the makeup to minimal. If you have a resculpt you haven't used yet, play with that to make her head a bit more elongated and have maybe shallow cheeks? Not TOO shallow but just enough.

I think the big thing standing in the way of androgyny for Saede is the smooth skin. It's very feminine. Try playing with some scars and see what happens.

I don't have a resculpt, and the only makeup she has right now is the eyeliner (which is supposed to be part of her tattoos) and her lipstick (which without, makes her face look oddly imbalanced).

As for the scars thing, I'll check it out, but a lot of the bodymod scars I feel like, I'd want some sort of reason for her to have ICly, and since no-remap, I can't try turning up the scarring slider.  =/

Well imo, as I said, the big hindrance is the skin/face, but I don't know how to fix it without a resculpt. Also, now that you mention that lipstick, it does sort of make her look more feminine. Do you have a screen cap of her without lipstick just for reference?

I like Saede even though I've had very limited interaction IC with her(?).  Strikes me as a very interesting and deep character.

Have someone else do it.
Edit: Not to suggest that you would suck at it, but someone else might incorporate rumours and half truths and other stuffs from another perspective.

I wanted this but I couldn't get anyone to do it. I was hoping to even have an IC edit war in her page discussion.

And there's two pictures, first of Saede with just no lipstick, second with no makeup at all. I think she looks not nearly as good without the dark eye eyeliner to bring out the colour in her eyes. As for the lipstick, she just seems slightly off to me without it, although not too much.

She becomes quite boyish without any makeup at all. She's definitely more androgynous without the eyeshadow and lipstick, but she looks way more aggressive with them (which I prefer, given your character's badass nature).

Remove any makeup for more androgyny. If not, it already looks very tomboyish anyway.
Title: Re: [Character] Saede Riordan
Post by: Anslol on 18 Jun 2013, 07:38
Seconding the last two post. That second pic looks WAAAAY more tomboy. That's actually near perfect if the skin could be less smooth/shiny. But,  :psyccp:.

I agree that make-up makes her look more feminine.
Title: Re: [Character] Saede Riordan
Post by: Saede Riordan on 22 Jun 2013, 08:14
I definitely want to keep her eyeliner, I like the way it plays up her eyes, I'm more on the fence about the lipstick, but I'm probably going to keep it. Not sure.

Any thoughts on how to improve/flesh out the wiki page? Or anyone wanna help edit it?

I do agree with Che's suggestion in this post. Someone wanna help? I can pay ISK for it.

I think the wiki should talk about WHAT it is that your opinions are so controversial of.  It says that you are well-known for your views... what views?  The war?  The Empress?  The Sansha incursions?  Quafe?

I have caught some small tidbits on the Summit now and then about your IC standpoint, and our little convo there shed a lot of light on your character for me.  But my character is curious and would absolutely be Googling Saede in her off times.  Especially since she was interested in the Paradox.

You give me some background data, and I'll help you write up some news stories on her to include?
