Impressions + Wardrobe Info for [community profile] phantasmalrift

Visual: Marla's changed her appearance quite a bit since she first arrived, but her face hasn't changed much. Those who know her from Demeleier or My Little Jamjar will notice that she looks somewhat older in her new form--around 18-19 instead of the babyfaced 16-year-old she was when she first started worldhopping. Her current build is also a bit more androgynous than what her original body had, with a chest that's flat as a board and slightly broader shoulders.

Her face is still pretty much the same - my personal faceclaim for her is Sachie. Her eyes are a bluish-grayish Benedict Cumberbatch-y color that should be familiar to much of the 15 Strangers crowd, especially with the slight bluish tinge to her sclera.

Marla's also significantly taller than she was at the start of her adventures, now being around 5'6'' instead of her original 4'10''. Because of chronic pain/balance issues that affect her mobility (and because a fall can shatter her pretty badly), she's usually seen with a cane.

Her skin is kind of medium-lightish with gold undertones, and has some calluses and scars from various accidents. A few of those scars look like they might be claw marks from some sort of strange animal. No obvious blemishes or disfigurations from the neck up, though.

Her hair is cropped short (at least in the back), straight, and tends to be styled with the bangs covering one of her eyes. She's used her gem powers to give it a variety of different colors, but it's usually the chestnut brown she naturally is with a few streaks of whatever she feels like at the moment. It tends to be at least a little messy.

When it comes to dress and personal care, Marla's presentation tends to be fairly androgynous. She doesn't ever really wear any makeup besides a thick application of eyeliner that's there just as often as not, although she will sometimes paint her nails unusual colors or put art on them if she feels up to it and thinks there's an excuse to. Her daily attire tends toward being comfy and casual and she loves dorky T-shirts in particular, but she's not averse to wearing something more unusual or formal if there's occasion to do so. She always wears some kind of (usually fingerless) gloves, unless she's in her pajamas or something. Marla also will often wear colorful hand-knit scarves in colder weather. Her gem sits between her collarbones and tends to be either just peeking out her clothes or covered up entirely.

Since leaving Cosmographia, she's also given herself several tattoos all over her back and shoulders, running down all the way her arms to her wrists. Mostly, these consist of giant strawberries interspersed with ancient weaponry and several gracideas, although there's also a large stylized dragon-creature on her back.

In terms of body language, she tends to be fairly relaxed and doesn't really emote much in most cases. When she does display strong emotion, it's...kind of silly-looking and tends to make her look like a huge dork.

Auditory: My voiceclaim for her is Dodger aka presshearttocontinue.

Olfactory: The girl uses cheap soaps and shampoo that tend to smell either like fruit or have a "neutral" smell like mint or "generic seaside salty breeze smell", so that's probably what she smells like predominantly.

She also smells faintly of various snack foods, cheap candy-flavored lip balms, and coffee.
