A young legionnaire and his comrades once went on a mission to find the last remaining dwarves in the Shiverpeak Mountains. Besides the warning of their families, the group packed their armour, weapons and wandered north. On the way to the top of a mountain, the group was surprised by a snowstorm. Even though the group was well prepared, the snowstorm took longer then expected. Five days after the snowstorm started, the group consumed their last remaining food. On the sixth day a white mysterious glowing creature appeared around the Shiverpeak Mountains. On the following days, comrad after comrad either froze or became crazy.
After forty days, a witness told the families of the legionnaire group about frozen Charrs that seemed to be part of the icebrood.












my idea was to make a icebrood/ice themed charr because we already have too many t3 basic charrs :D
im not too happy about haveing 3 zodiac pieces, but i think they are the only pieces that give blue claws and a blue tail.

It's an interesting theme you used, especially for a Charr, I have to admit that and I think that your armour mix actually doesn't look too bad.
I like that you managed to combine the Zodiac armour with some other pieces to create a more mystical and icy look though I am not entirely sure about the mask you used here. I think it looks a little bit off and maybe you could have found something different and better. I also feel like at least the gloves or the boots should be a different skin because right now it looks a bit too much zodiac for me.
I like your weapon choices here but I think that the backpiece doesn't really fit to the ice- theme. Maybe you are lucky and you have one of the wings, for example the Holographic Dragon Wings or Holographic Shattered Dragon Wings but if you have neither of those I would suggest you to get rid of the backpiece in general.
Your story is really neat but and I think you could have represented this story way better in your screens. Generally I would love to see some more screens and please, get rid of the Heart of the Mists it's a boring place and has nothing to do with your character and this chilly cold vibe he is giving me. The Shiverpeaks have quite a lot of places where you could take some nice screens and I am sure that you will be able to find some more places to take some nice and diverse screens of your Charr.
Your look is really nice and with some properly taken screens and some minor changes it might be even gold- worthy!

thanks for the opinion :)
i changed the gloves and the colour to fit more to the icebrood colours (similar to the icebrood norn). as for the headpiece i wanted a full covered helm and there arent really many to choose from beside the cultural ones. im not really a fan of the dragon wings because they have nothing to do lore wise and do look quite small on my max size charr. the fractal backpiece doesnt make sense lore wise either but i think it fits with the colour and gives a "mystic snowy aura".

Hey I like how you mix the zodiac armor (lot of people fail doing it so it looks really bad) actually I only liked it on blue sylvaris but this looks really cool but as Ana said the mask and the backpack doesn't fit with it.

Yeah I don't like the idea of the wing either and I think that the phalanx mask would fit but I don't think is able to get

Of course you don't have to take the wings it was just an idea of a more fitting backpiece ^^
I actually like the dyes by far more now than they were before you really payed some attention to the colour scheme and I like that and I like the gloves way more than before! :>

Even though the armor mix feels random to me you still managed to convey the ice vibe you set out to do, the dyes and weapons greatly helped you in that regard. But when it comes to the armor there is absolutely no consistency whatsoever just randomness, and that's a bit of surprise for me because you seem to know what you are aiming (Icebrooded Charr). So I will admit I find the idea original and intriguing so I decided to see what I could come up with to help you out a bit. I think this combo will help you out immensley: Zodiac Heavy Boots, Glorious Legplates, Zodiac Heavy Gauntlets , Leystone Brestplate, Scallywag Pauldrons and Glint's Gaze Mask/Berserker Helmet.(using only Amenity and Abyss dyes)

P.S I'm pretty sure you gave me a Silver vote instead of Gold. Can you please recheck that for me? I'd greatly appreciate it :)
