    Mask
    A giant of a man (7ft 6'), broad as a barn (300lb) his muscles are not things curated for gym selfies but thick from use and abuse. The jug jaw can be said to be his most flattering feature, after the badly broken nose, limp locks of hair and sharp shattered teeth. He wears a long poorly made overcoat, suspenders keep trousers up over a ill fitting white work shirt. A battered fedora is his only accessory.

    Mask: a battered brown moth eaten fedora, the hat band looks like a band of sackcloth has been wound around it.

    Mein: made of stitched red and brown leaves, 2 holes for his horn nubbins -- the scarecrows I pictured to be in place of the hat band, just a jumbled array of tiny standing and suspended sackcloth and straw people ringing the main body of the hat.

    Mein

    Standing an inch or so taller and broader than its already giant mask the blubbery ashen skin, splotched with chitinous scabs and bulbous fleshy worts look almost diseased. Wild and matted lichens and moss form a tangled mane of hair and beard. Thick trunk like, twisted, arms of exaggerated length, end in vast hands with dark chipped nails. The pillar like legs bow slightly. A barrel chest and obese gut only add to the immensity of the creature. A broad jaw houses a chaotic array of sharp and curving teeth resembling shards of stone that prevent complete mouth closure ensuring they are always on display. The flat squashed nose leads to the sickly yellow sclera of the vast bulbous eyes and pupils more akin to fragments of flint, in turn overshadowed by nubbin horns protruding from a wide forehead

    Had he preferred this event when it had been in the museum instead of a church, yes sure but well carols and churches did kind of go together didn't they. Adding a nostalgic kind of weight to it, so for tonight the giant swallows his reservations on the matter and ducks into the dim candlelight, although he cant help not hardening his mask, if someone caught a glimpse in here, oh the fear he could induce, shortly before the pitchforks came out and he had to scarper anyway.

    But for now he sits mostly in the shadows of the more deserted back rows letting the screaming children and the publicly pious have their way up front preferring to sit in a rare still silence out of sight, well as out of sight as a looming giant with an air of menace can be be anyway. And just listen.

    Mein:

    Her skin turns a slate-blue and her hair bone white. The whites of her eyes are blood red, the irises are purple with cat-slit black pupils. The helix of her ears elongate out 2" inches ending in a tip. Her features sharpen and her figure has an unnatural, inhuman litheness that can be intellectually disturbing.

    Her skin brings to mind Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, or Asian races, though her high cheek bones and sharp facial structure don't match. Most assume she is of mixed ancestry given the pale blonde hair. Alias Mary Maniscalo.

    Tis the season to be saintly...or at least try. Circe is uncertain if she is actually TRYING to reconnect to her childhood religion memories or the somewhat hypocritical habits of her old Familia. Respect for the faith was still instilled in her to a degree though. Hence the silver cross a top her rather restrained for a Fairest attire. More notable and odd feeling for the violent Summer monarch was the lack of arms or armiger upon her person. She shouldn't need, but habits. Unless she was very, very, very determined with the little purse full of candy canes she had on her. It was in the spirit of the season and such.


    Still, it was odd to be around so many mundies and their innocent ignorance of that which bumps around in the shadows. The scowl has to be removed before her ire warms up the church as she avoids joining the front rows. Too many seniors and small children, thank you but no. She makes her way towards the back, trying to find some place to...brood? Reminisce?


    It was confuzzling feelings okay?!


    Huzzha! First scene back, hi!

    Gristlegrinder Troll

    As the piano starts into Angels we have heard on high the giants gaze shifts back into the present moment from whatever memory of not entirely true reality he had slipped into and falls onto the blue elf in the red Santa dress, he seemed to recall Circe being at one of these before, which makes it less surprising to see her here now. Shifting his the seat, well two he is taking up the deep voice is quirt but carries none the less. "Uh. You look like you could use a dark corner." Shifting over causing the plastic legs to complain as his weight moves, and offers a seat to the summer queen if she would like one.



    The first of very many more to come I hope *Waves enthusiastically * Hi Origins!
