Here to give a new meaning to mama bear...

Leah is rather sarcastic, a little too quick to speak her mind and her confidence borders arrogance. These traits make it easy for her to hide her motherly side. As if it were one of her hobbies, one would often find her bouncing around bullying people into taking care of their personal hygiene, eating or getting much needed rest. She likes to exaggerate, turn a pocket raptor into full blown elder dragon and if people refuse to agree, she won’t stop until she figures out a way to blame the possible destruction of the whole of Tyria on that persons shoulders for not having removed a stain from their armor.

There isn’t much that’ll silence her, except for maybe a mug of ice cold ale. Her opinion about the elder dragons is most definitely biased and there’s no way she’d ever feel any kind of empathy for those who associate with them. She knows how to fend for herself and doesn’t like being belittled. Once you knows what sets her off, it’s easy to get her riled up or ranting about your 'stupidity'.

Now no matter how much I like the Mistward Leggings, they are not my favorite item to mix and match. x.x Like for example the Zodiac armor, they tend to have either a hue or a texture that doesnt match any other piece of armor than that of the same set. Despite the fact the metal on the Phalanax top dyes differently, I do really like how the texture on top and bottom have a bit of the same feel to it.

I was contemplating getting the Burden of Koda for the shoulders but ended up with the Norn Cultural because of the shapes are simular to the metal on the bottom. The gloves gave me quite the headache since there's pretty much nothing I was satisfied with @.@ Headpiece for the sake of having a headpiece... I feel so cheap Y.Y

I needed an excuse to use more of the Charred color, I really like the way it dyes and since it is winter I wanted to give her a bit of an ice goddess feel. Originally I wanted to go for something even lighter since my previous entry on her was really dark, but I've never done well with 'angelic' looks. That and I apparently have a very strong weakness for the Glacial Sky colors... Nevertheless I think there's still a hint of winter frost in there ^0^''

Dyes used: Charcoal, Charred, Steel, Deep Glacial sky, Glacial Sky, Shiver Sky, Midnight Ice and Shadow Abyss.

Thank youuuu!!!!
Tehee, well I have a weak for those boots too, they look strong but not bulky, and they dye well ^^''
And you're a right that the look of them is somewhat off, but like the gloves, not many other pieces work well with the look @.@

There's something about most heavy female Norn that doesn't do it for me (perhaps the oversized shoulder pieces), but this is a pretty cohesive look. I like it!
