I received more of my items in the mail so I wanted to take some more pictures. I made a little set, but then I also have some picture of my dolls before I set up and after I cleaned up, I'll post those at the end.
Lots of individual shots....

Just Another Sunday Morning in Silvermoon
Tuesday, December 7, 2010
Finally the culmination of all my plans has arrived
I.E. Aleen's wig came in. Now she has her wig and eyes and I can finally take decent pictures of her for her character sheet (and, of course, for my own personal amusement). I'm so excited~
Now I supposed I should start working on getting all the stuff for Kaera's LTF body... Not that I really have time to play with any of my dolls... I mean, I still haven't painted Aleen's hooves. However, it's not entirely my fault. It's been pretty cold and windy--far from perfect weather for spraying MSC coatings on a doll....
Then again, perhaps I'll order it from DDE next week. ;]

Fictional Universe: Azeroth (from World of Warcraft)
Sculpt: Soon PKF Ante
Sex: Female
Height: 35 in.
Weight: 33.2lb
Birthday: December 2nd
Sign: Sagittarius
Approx. Age: 4
Blood Type: B
Bear Name: No bear name yet
Physical Appearance: Due to being a guinea pig in her sister’s alchemy experiment, Bellana has permanent pink hair. She has light green eyes and a fair complexion with a small amount of freckles.
Family: Daughter of the very wealthy Naranna (Sunlance--maiden) and Faradon Phoenixstar. Sister to Kaera Phoenixstar.
Alignment: Neutral
Personality: Unlike her sister, Bellana has a much more relaxed and patient disposition. Since her family moved to Shattrath, this has become more apparent, it seems that she may be influenced by the Light driven society of the Draenei in Shattrath. She’s a lot like Beth from Little Women.
History: Bellana was born in Silvermoon and has some very fond memories of growning up in the Eversong Woods, however, as her family has since moved to Shattrath, Bellana is not as worldy as her sister. She is extremely patient and will often offer to help her sister with chores.
Likes/Dislikes: As she is so young, she really hasn’t seen enough of the world to know what she likes and dislikes. It’s assumed that she enjoys all the fun things that is normal for a little child.

Kaera Character/Info Sheet
Name: Kaera Phoenixstar
Fictional Universe: Azeroth (from World of Warcraft)
Sculpt: PFK Ante (soon LTF Ante)
Sex: Female
Height: 42 in.
Weight: 44.6lb
Birthday: July 31st
Sign: Leo
Approx. Age: 7
Blood Type: AB
Bear Name: Adm. Benedict Teddy / Mr. Teddy
Physical Appearance: Kaera changes her hair occasionally, but she will usually go back to a version of (baby or hot) pink. She has dark, green eyes that glow green with the fel energies that she consumes to practice magic. She is very slim, and often wears very expensive clothes and jewelry. She has a very fair complexion.
Family: Daughter of the very wealthy Naranna (Sunlance--maiden) and Faradon Phoenixstar. Sister to Bellana Phoenixstar.
Alignment: Neutral
Personality: Kaera has a very strong will. Being doted on constantly when she was younger (and an only child for a while), Kaera has become very conceited, strong-willed, and just a little bit selfish. However, in spite of all her faults, Kaera is very loving and protective of those she cares for. She particularly fond of Aleen, and even though she bosses Aleen around, Kaera would rather see the end of the world before she would let any harm come to Aleen.
History: Kaera’s childhood has been relatively uneventful and full of happiness and love. She was spoiled by her parents and nana. At the age of 6, she met Aleen and has become extremely attached to her (she considers Aleen her best friend forever). When Aleen was exiled from the Horde cities by Garrosh, it wasn’t long before Kaera was able to persuade her parents to relocate to a home close to hers.
Likes: Even though her favorite color is pink and she loves wearing dresses, she is a bit of a tom boy. She often uses the slang of young boys and will speak of herself as a Commadore. It should be noted that whenever she is asked why she decides to do something, her rationale is that Admiral Teddy gave her orders, or that he agrees with her.
Dislikes: She doesn’t like being challenged. She also dislikes chores or school work, which she rarely does anyway because she has her parents and nurse wrapped around her finger. However, above all, she dislikes Aleen giving anyone else attention. She is perhaps, more attached to Aleen than her sister, parents, or teddy bear.

Aleen Character/Info Sheet
Name: Aleen Benwick
Fictional Universe: Azeroth (from World of Warcraft)
Sculpt: Soom Beyla
Sex: Female
Height: 47 in.
Weight: 57.7lb
Birthday: April 20
Sign: Taurus/Ares (cusp child)
Approx. Age: 8
Blood Type: O
Bear Name: Frederick
Physical Appearance: Aleen has long, mousy brown hair and crystal blue eyes (similar to the Fremen of Dune). She’s taller than normal humans or elves her age, but smaller than an average Draenei child. Her legs and tail have more abundance of hair in comparison to other Draenei children as well. Her skin is a very light pink; much pinker than a Draenei’s, but not pink or tan enough to be considered a good human complexion. Her horns are extremely small and are similar to a baby doe’s.
Family: Daughter of the Paladin Sir. Charles Benwick (Human) and Aaynna (Draenei-- Lightshield is her maiden name). Aleen’s mother was a Priestess who died at the great struggle at Naxxramas. Aleen’s father died during the battle at Angrathar the Wrathgate. Her mother died when she was about four her father when she was about five.
Alignment: Neutral Good
Personality: Aleen is very shy due to always being picked on at the orphanage. She has a strong sense of good, imparted by her parents who both served the Light. However, she cannot connect with the Light and often feels like it has forsaken her. She does, however, feel a strong connection with nature due to being constantly out of doors--and away from bullies-- when she was at the orphanage. Since being adopted by Ka’thael, and gaining a few friends--Kaera and Bellana--she was become less shy and more playful.
History: Aleen suffered many losses at the hand of the Lich King. Her parents both died in the attempt to defeat the scourge. After her father’s death, she was placed in an orphanage in Shattrath at the age of five. Upon her arrival to the orphanage, she became somewhat of a loner, as the children would often make fun of her for being different (i.e. she’s half-Human, half-Draenei). Aleen, therefore, spent most of her time outdoors, playing with the animals, or making things in the dirt. During this time, she began to doubt whether the world was naturally good and if justice always prevailed--something that her parents always assured her was true. She began to have a real respect for nature, as it was her only friend at this time. After roughly a year,she met Ka’thael. Throughout the course of a few months, Ka’thael met with her several times, often bringing presents. Unfortunately for Aleen, the beautiful presents she received would often get stolen from her by the other children. Ka’thael eventually adopted her and, with the approval of Thrall and the government and of Silvermoon, brought her back to the Eversong Woods, with his sister and family. There she met and became friends with Kaera and Bellana, two daughters of the Dawnstriders’ friends. After Garrosh ascended to the title of Warchief, Aleen was banished from the Horde cities (because her parents served the Alliance), so Ka’thael and his sister moved to another home in Shattrath City where Aleen would could grow up with less prejudice and racism against her. Not long after, the Phoenixstars followed suit and bought a summer home in Shattrath, near the Scryer’s tower.
Likes: Aleen loves almost everything. Since the death of her parents, her experience with the world has become very limited, therefore, everything she does has some charm and enjoyment--even if she doesn’t show it.
Dislikes: Aleen loves nearly everything. The only thing that she has ever mentioned a dislike for is the orphanage, as the children would always tease her and steal her things.

Vonly's Character/Info Sheet
Name: Celdara Dawnstrider
Nickname/new name:Vonlys
Fictional Universe: Azeroth (from World of Warcraft)
Sculpt: No doll yet, DZ Celine, Tulip, or female Joe
Sex: Female
Height: 5’5”
Weight: 120
Birthday: October 30th
Sign: Scorpio
Approx. Age: Unknown, but looks roughly 25
Blood Type: A
Bear Name: Lor’thala
Physical Appearance: Celdara is an average weight for her height. For a swordsman, she has relatively very little muscle (obviously more than a Mage but very little compared to other warriors or paladins). Her eyes glow a pale blue. She has a pale complexion with a very small amount of color in her cheeks and lips. Since her abduction, her hair has turned from a vibrant red to a snowy white.
Family: Daughter of a wealthy noble family. Twin and younger sister of Ka’thael Dawnstrider (Diagonal).
Alignment: Neutral
Personality: When she was young, Celdara was considered by everyone to be the perfect highborne child. She was outspoken, confident, intelligent, talented, and maybe even a little bit worldly; she was a child of fortune. However, since her abduction by the Prince Arthas--and all the subsequent events after--she has become very reserved, quiet, and melancholy. Although much more frequent when she first returned to her home in the Eversong Woods, Celdara has often been woken up by night terrors. While she was still recovering, her personality had reverted to a more childlike stage. So much so that she could not be left without supervision for more than a few hours. Upon the completion of her “recovery”--for she will never truly recover--she will never answer to Celdara by anyone but her father, brother, and her nurse (who was her childhood nana). She considers her former self dead, “but through Celdara’s ashes, Vonlys was born.”
History: Celdara was born to two wealthy Highborne Night Elves. Her mother, a follower of Lady Azshara, died during the War of the Ancients. During the Great Sundering and the banishment of the Highborne from Kalimdor, the remainder of the Dawnstrider family fled to the Eastern Kingdoms. Celdara and and her brother grew up calling themselves High Elves; and, although Celdara and Ka’thael lost their mother at a young age, their childhood and adolescence was full of indulgence and praise. During the Third War, while Celdara’s brother was away fighting the scourge, Celdara was abducted by Arthas during his invasion of Silvermoon. She was tortured and brainwashed until she would unquestionably serve the Lich King in the massacre of thousands of people. When the Lich King betrayed many of his followers at Light Hope’s chapel, Celdara fled and began to serve her own hunger and whims. She journeyed throughout the Eastern and Western Plaguelands, setting villiages ablaze and slaughtering the village's inhabitants. When she had depleted her supply of villiages, she settled in a town. There she proclaimed herself queen and would require a daily sacrifice. Twisted as she was, she would force the townsfolk not only choose who amongst them would be sacrificed, but she would also force them to watch the death. During her reign, no citizen of the town was able to leave. If any were caught, she would execute twice the amount of fugitives caught, often choosing from the general populous.
Ka’thael, her brother, found her during an execution, and, being unable to bring her back to her senses, challenged her to a duel to the death. While they battled, the townspeople fled until the ruined town’s populous consisted only of brother and sister. Upon her throne, Ka’thael threw his sister down at sword point. As he prepared to slay his sister, Celdara caught a glance of the their deceased mother’s locket. The Lich King and Frostmourne’s power on Celdara was broken. Finding his sister remorseful, he smuggled her out of the Plaguelands and took her back to their ruined home in Eversong Woods. There he nursed her back to health and partial sanity.
Conversation between Ka’thael and Vonlys:
1: An evilness
“It’s not your fault, you were not yourself.” Ka’thael pleads to her, leaning in closer in hopes to make eye contact.
“No,” Vonlys sighs, “it cannot all be blamed upon the Lich King. It was my fault too; it was my hand. I can’t help but think...” she pauses for a moment, tears running down her face, “to think that deep down inside of me there is an evilness. An evilness I did not know existed... but that the Lich King found...” Vonlys looks at Ka’thael, “I know you would never let me take the blame, Ka’thael, but...you can’t find something that doesn’t exist.” Vonlys turns her face away away from Ka’thael and stifles her sobs.
2: Loss of a Former Life
“I remember waking up in a dark, strange room. The stench of decaying flesh was so strong, I had to force myself not to vomit. I soon realized that I was in a pit of corpses, and that I too was must have been dead... when my captors realized that they had succeeded in their horrible experiment, I was bound and gagged,” Vonlys stops for a second, trying to recollect what happened after. For her, the events of her resurrection into servitude are fuzzy and difficult to remember.
“I remember being taken to another pit... I’m sure of it. It didn’t smell as bad, and it wasn’t so cramped... but the screams... I remember the screams of agony and fear. It seemed like I was chained there for ages... and perhaps I was...” Vonlys squints slightly, as if trying to see something off in the distance, “I remember the light changing... and the beatings... and the torture... and then it all stopped... and I was dragged to my feet. I remember them shoving a sword in my hand and forcing me to fight someone... someone important to me....”
Vonlys stops, trying to recall the far away events. She racks her brain for the answer of who it might have been, but to no avail. She cannot remember and it leaves her with a strong foreboding feeling that she knew them very well. She tries to shake off the feeling and continues.
“I remember asking--pleading--with him to stop. That we didn’t have to fight each other, but he wouldn’t listen; the Lich King had already broke him and his lust for blood and power was insatiable. He charged at me with his weapon raised. I dodged. Our swords came together with a loud clang,” Vonlys pauses, recounting in her head the events of the fight, “We fought ‘till we were exhausted... and then he lounged at me... and I parried and knocked his sword from his hand, and as he ran to recover it, I plunged my sword into his back.” Vonlys’ eyes now filled with tears.
“He crumpled to the floor, face first... and as the heat of the battle dissipated, I had realized what I had done. I ran to him... and turned him over.” Vonlys softly rocks back and forth in her seat, “And... I remember crying out ‘Faeron! Faeron!’” Vonlys--tears streaming down her face--looks at Ka’thael.
Ka’thael clears his throat and speaks, “Faeron... Lightblade? Th-The man you were engaged to?”
Vonlys slowly nods, “He came back to Silvermoon t-to save m-me,” Vonlys covers her face, but through her sobs, Ka’thael can make out, “A-an-d k-k-kill-ed hi-i-m!”
Ka’thael sits back in his seat, trying to absorb the information. Silence dominates the room for quite a while, until Ka’thael pulls Vonlys to his chest, and softly strokes the back her head in hopes to comfort her, “Shhh... It’s alright, dear sister,” Ka’thael waits for Vonlys to calm down before he continues, “It may feel like a lot now, but... seeing how much you suffer... perhaps you did him a favor. Perhaps, you spared him all the pain that you feel now....”
“Brother,” Vonlys buries her head into Ka’thael’s chest, “I’m s-sorry. I’m so-o sorry. I know h-ow c-close you two were,” her whole body shakes as she tries to stifle her sobs.
“My poor sister,” Ka’thael tries to hide the tears and the pain in his voice, “the pain I suffer is nothing compared to yours.”
Likes: Children’s toys, stuffed animals, and pink, frilly dresses.
Dislikes: Once the novelty of an item, event, or person has worn off, Celdara often looks as though she dislikes it--now, whether she does or not is too difficult to decipher, as she is often unsure herself. The only people whom she appears to not dislike are the three people who can call her by her childhood name...and perhaps Aleen, as they are so very similar in disposition.
Note: I will often refer to this character/doll as Celdara before her capture and conversion from evil. However, I will refer to her as Vonlys after her recovery. This also coincides with when she renames herself.

Conversation between Ka’thael and Vonlys:
1: An evilness
Vonlys stares at her hands, “I think it would be better if I had died.”
Ka’thael lays his hand upon hers.
“It may be weak or wrong to think so, but...” her voice cracks, “to think of everything I’ve done... the horrible things I’ve done. I--” Vonlys chokes.“It’s not your fault, you were not yourself.” Ka’thael pleads to her, leaning in closer in hopes to make eye contact.
“No,” Vonlys sighs, “it cannot all be blamed upon the Lich King. It was my fault too; it was my hand. I can’t help but think...” she pauses for a moment, tears running down her face, “to think that deep down inside of me there is an evilness. An evilness I did not know existed... but that the Lich King found...” Vonlys looks at Ka’thael, “I know you would never let me take the blame, Ka’thael, but...you can’t find something that doesn’t exist.” Vonlys turns her face away away from Ka’thael and stifles her sobs.

Vonlys slowly nods, “He came back to Silvermoon t-to save m-me,” Vonlys covers her face, but through her sobs, Ka’thael can make out, “A-an-d k-k-kill-ed hi-i-m!”
Ka’thael sits back in his seat, trying to absorb the information. Silence dominates the room for quite a while, until Ka’thael pulls Vonlys to his chest, and softly strokes the back her head in hopes to comfort her, “Shhh... It’s alright, dear sister,” Ka’thael waits for Vonlys to calm down before he continues, “It may feel like a lot now, but... seeing how much you suffer... perhaps you did him a favor. Perhaps, you spared him all the pain that you feel now....”
“Brother,” Vonlys buries her head into Ka’thael’s chest, “I’m s-sorry. I’m so-o sorry. I know h-ow c-close you two were,” her whole body shakes as she tries to stifle her sobs.
“My poor sister,” Ka’thael tries to hide the tears and the pain in his voice, “the pain I suffer is nothing compared to yours.”
Likes: Children’s toys, stuffed animals, and pink, frilly dresses.
Dislikes: Once the novelty of an item, event, or person has worn off, Celdara often looks as though she dislikes it--now, whether she does or not is too difficult to decipher, as she is often unsure herself. The only people whom she appears to not dislike are the three people who can call her by her childhood name...and perhaps Aleen, as they are so very similar in disposition.
Note: I will often refer to this character/doll as Celdara before her capture and conversion from evil. However, I will refer to her as Vonlys after her recovery. This also coincides with when she renames herself.

Diagonal's Character/Info Sheet
Name: Ka'thael Dawnstrider
Nickname:Diagonal
Fictional Universe: Azeroth (from World of Warcraft)
Sculpt: DZ Floy, 60cm old boy sculpt
Sex: Male
Height: 6’2”
Weight: 200
Birthday: October 30th
Sign: Scorpio
Approx. Age: Unknown, but looks roughly 25
Blood Type: A
Physical Appearance: Ka’thael has a very slim, compact physique and often looks scrawny in comparison to a muscular Orc or a well built Draenei. His skin is about average for his kind, but much paler than a human’s. As he has shed his addiction to not only Fel Engergies,but also the exploitation of M’uru, Ka’thael’s eyes only glow an extremely light shade of greenish aqua. Therefore, he can often disguise--or be mistaken--as a High Elf. As with many among his race, he can often be seen wearing lots of red.
Family: Son of wealthy noble family. Twin and older brother (by three minutes) of Celdara (Vonlys). Mother died when he was 5 years old. Adopted father to Aleen.
Personality: Although now notably pious and meditative, Ka’thael still retains a small amount of the vanity and selfishness that is common among his race. Under his cool exterior, he feels a multitude of emotions: compassion, justice, duty, and vengeance. Throughout his tumultuous journey in the Plaguelands and the trials he faced with his sister, Ka’thael found the power of the Light in himself and in A’dal, and therefore renounced the parasitic, Blood Elven practice of bending the Naaru's Light-given powers. Throughout his journeys and the various battles that he has fought--often side-by-side with other members of the Horde and Alliance--Ka’thael has come to believe that compassion should know no bounds. He has come to realize that all races are relatively the same, and, therefore, he will try to help not only the members of the Horde, but also the members of Alliance, even if it could be considered hereitc to do so. Even though he has pledged his allegiance to the Light, Ka’thael is not perfect, and can fall subject to the same vices as everyone else.
Alignment: Neutral good
History: Ka’thael was born to two wealthy, Highborne Night Elves. His mother, a follower of Lady Azshara, died during the War of the Ancients. During the Great Sundering and the banishment of the Highborne from Kalimdor, the remainder of the Dawnstrider family fled to the Eastern Kingdoms. Kathael and his sister grew up calling themselves High Elves. During the Third War, Ka’thael, now old enough to join in the battle, left his home and journeyed across the Plaugelands to fight the scourge. While Ka’thael was away, Celdara was abducted when she was helping to defend Silvermoon from Arthas’ invasion. Bitter and despondent, Ka’thael left through the Dark Portal to gain the power to exact his revenge for the slaughter of his people and--what he believed to be--the death of his sister. While in the outlands, Ka’thael began referring to himself as a Blood Elf in honor of all the loses he and his people suffered at the hand of Arthas. While journeying throughout the outlands, Ka’thael joined the Blood Knights so he would always have the power to defend his people and loved ones.
Dislikes: When he was younger, he once pouted for three days straight over losing a simple game of poker, so it may be assumed that he has a distaste for losing. However, since he has journeyed the world, it is very difficult to see anger or disgust in his face. One may observe that he dons a very solemn, reflective look throughout many unhappy events.

While in the outlands, Ka’thael began referring to himself as a Blood Elf in honor of all the loses he and his people suffered at the hand of Arthas. While journeying throughout the outlands, Ka’thael joined the Blood Knights so he would always have the power to defend his people and loved ones.
Many years had passed when he was summoned back to the Plaguealnds to help rid the lands of a demon that was traveling around, torturing townsfolk and proclaiming herself queen. He stumbled upon the demon only to find out that it was his little sister. Unable to bring her to her senses, he challenged her to a duel to the death. After what seemed to be an eternity, Ka’thael was finally able to gain an advantaged. As he forced his sister to the ground at sword point, she saw their mother’s locket, which had worked its way out of his breastplate. The twisted power that the Lich King and Frostmourne had on his sister was finally broken by the powerful protective enchantment cast upon the locket (although, the damage would never be repaired). Upon her conversion from evil, Ka’thael smuggled his sister out of the Plaguelands and back to the ruins of Silvermoon and the Eversong Woods. There he nursed her back to health and partial sanity, often suffering sleepless nights for the comfort of his sister. When she was finally well enough to be left to the care of their old nurse, Ka’thael was forced to return to the battle which now raged in Northrend.
While waging the war against the scourge and the Lich King, Ka’thael was summoned to Angrathar the Wrathgate. However, he had arrived at the Wrathgate too late: the battle was already over--finished by traitorous Putress and vengeful forsaken. At the fire-scarred steps of Wrathgate, he met Alexstrasza, the Lifebinder. Guided by Alexstrasza, grief-stricken Ka’thael helped bury the dead. While moving the corpses, a portrait dislodged itself from within the breastplate of the deceased paladin. Ka’thael--overcome with compassion for the loss of the two Draenei figures in the portrait--felt that he should personally inform them of the tragedy that occurred at Wrathgate. On completion of his tasks in Northrend, Ka’thael disguised himself as a High Elf and journeyed to many Alliance cities in hopes of finding the fallen paladin’s family, but to no avail. However, while running an errand in Shattrath, he spotted one of the figures in the portrait he had recovered at Wrathgate. Upon further inspection, he noticed that the child--for it indeed was a child in the portrait--lived at the orphanage. Through many meetings with the child and the Matron, he discovered that not only did the child’s father die, but the child’s mother had also passed away. Researching the matter even further Ka’thael learned that the father had living family members. Ka’thael once again disguised himself in hopes of informing the family members of not only the loss of a son and brother, but also of the addition of a grand-child and niece. However, the family could not be persuaded to adopt the child, as they considered her an undesirable mix of races. Ka’thael, not only knowing the pain of the loss of a parent, but also saddened by the prejudice the child would face, adopted her. Through negotiations with Thrall and members of Silvermoon, was able to raise her in the Eversong woods with his sister and his old nana. However, upon Garrosh Hellscream being appointed the new Warcheif, Aleen was not allowed in any Horde city. Ka’thael and Aleen relocated to a cozy home in Shattrath.
Likes: Although Ka’thael believes that moderation is the key to salvation, Ka’thael enjoys many of the other worldly delights, such as winning games, parties, and attention--especially from pretty women. It also may be observed often finds solace in meditation. He often be found meditating for two to three hours a day.Dislikes: When he was younger, he once pouted for three days straight over losing a simple game of poker, so it may be assumed that he has a distaste for losing. However, since he has journeyed the world, it is very difficult to see anger or disgust in his face. One may observe that he dons a very solemn, reflective look throughout many unhappy events.
