Okay serious question time: Was Andruil a Mohawk or a Dreadlocks kinda gal?

Neither! 

[Siha]

Ah, this is the trendy rabbit hair style that I've been reading so much about recently?

[Sable Rhapsody]

Neither! *snip of terrifying hair*

 

That is...something right out of cosmic horror.  Cosmic hair horror.  I love it.

 

I wonder if I could do that with my hair?  Probably not without grotesque quantities of hairspray.

I fell into the Elven Pantheon fashion board over on Pinterest and I've been trapped there ever since. 

 

I should go outside. Get some sun, talk to people. But I always get so disappointed when none of them are dressed like this:

 

 

All I want is fabulous perfection. Is that really so much to ask?

[legbamel]

Ooh, shiny feathery bird armor.  The weird hairy sleeves look like they'd get in the way during a fight but for ceremonial purposes (or for intimidating one's underlings) it's just the thing!

I wrote this explaining the whole glitter Pantheon thing, and there is bonus beautious artwork. Here.

I do wonder if the Pantheon are bald (as depicted in their mosaics) so that they can wear fancy headdresses ala Vivienne?

I think this is how it went:

 

Mosaic artist 1: I can't get Falon'Din's glorious braid quite right . . . What do you think?

Mosaic artist 2: Hell if I know. I'm working on Andruil's braided, mohawk . . . thing. 

Mosaic artist 1: How about we just depict them all as bald?

Mosaic artist 2: I like this idea. But I don't think Falon'Din or Andruil will like it. You know how they get about their hair.

Mosaic artist 1: Idea. We will tell them their baldness symbolizes a purity of spirit. It is symbolic of marking them above the common rabble!

According to that hypothesis, Fen'Harel has the impurest of spirits. He must have pissed off the mosaic artists real bad for him to be depicted this way.

Or he failed to show up on mosaic day and they took a random wolf from the forest instead.

[Giton]

Fen'Harel was probably having tree issues on mosaic day.

 

Also, I refuse to believe that Andruil doesn't do some variation of this hair flip when she enters the room:

 

[legbamel]

I tend to imagine their hair as so meticulously styled that a hair flip is quite difficult, without risking neck injury.

Andruil was a huntress, so she totally had Shield-maiden, Viking hair for . . . hunting and Fen'Herel tree times. So I don't imagine a haughty hair-flip would be out of the question for her. Sylaise, on the other hand, made June craft huge hair pieces. Ghilly has her antlers. Falon'Din has his old-twined braid that June tries to seasonally decorate.

That's her 'getting the groceries' outfit. 

[Nightspirit]

Fen'Harel was probably having tree issues on mosaic day.

 

But that would mean Andruil should've also missed mosaic day, no?

I think it might have been the day when he was chained up in Andruil's basement. She left for mosaic day and let her sentinels guard him.
I have photo evidence.

Here is some more Falon'Din for all your glitter needs...

And this, dear children, is the beginning of the story why Fen'Harel had to lock away all the elven gods who, despite all previous expectations, gave a **** about the symbolization of their purity of spirit and went mad with rage when confronted with those mosaics that would endure ages, shaping the minds of generations by reducing the elven gods' glamorous divinity to off-the-shelf baldness.

[legbamel]

Hmmm. We always assumed Mythal's betrayal was her murder--a reasonable leap. Could it have been, all along, the traitorous removal of her hair in the mosaics of her own temple? Elfquiring minds want to know.

I like to think the high priests used to compete for the most fabulous headdress:

 

 

But then they had to stop when Ghilan'nain's priest couldn't fit it through the temple doors during her porcupine phase:

Though the gods would have no issue playing the "Who has the biggest/flashiest headress" Andruil likes to frequent this piece from time to time:

When the Pantheon play Miss/Mr universe they play for keeps.

Oooh, I love this one.  Even with the spike-bra it screams "Falon'Din!"

 

Actually, I now have a burning desire for a Bleach/DA crossover just so we can have Grimmjow as Falon'Din.

I can see this. That stare is so Falon'Din. And the spikes. Falon'Din has feelings for spiked armor.

[nikki-tikki]

I have such special feelings for this outfit for Falon'Din. Minus that weird head mesh thing...

 

 

But the spikes. All the spikes.

I arrive with yet another musical tribute to the flashy fantastic, this from DJ Schmolli.  The song fits better with the Glitterotica than on the Solas thread, it being a manic picture of master Solas, shedding the too-comfortable trappings of the Inquisition and his love for Lavellan.  He takes in the power of his dearest (only?) friend and he’s cocked, locked, and ready to rock.  

Spoilered for looniness.

Consider, if you will, the lyrics:

(First, his determination to right past wrongs)
Rising up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance, now I’m back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive

So many times it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don’t lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

(This section represents his internal conflict with regard to dumping Lavellan)
Get up on this.
You’re no good for me
I don’t need nobody
Don’t need no one
That’s no good for me

(Then he recalls the epic battle with Rock Candy Samson)
Rock show
You came to see a rock show
A big gigantic cockshow
You came to see it a-a-a-all



You see?  Solas isn’t a wolf, he’s a No Good Cockeyed Tiger.

Okay, maybe the Eye of the Tiger Lyrics made me think of him but then I got a giggle from how the rest of the lyrics could be finessed to fit, more or less, and all that energetic music just made me think, “Pantheon!”  And no, I haven't been drinking yet.
