    Mask

    A slim girl, with raven black hair and grey-blue eyes. She likes wearing silver nail polish.
    Mien

    Her skin; like moonlight captured. Quicksilver drips from her fingers, burning up before it lands. Motes of fell fire escape her eyes. In her hair, a galaxy, forming constellations which mimic the sky, changing with the Seasons.
    Mantle

    Fear made manifest, Autumn's Regalia embraces the Wisp, as if she is Dread's most blessed daughter.

    Hidden behind her mask, Mhairi's brow furrow as she attempts to think of just who wouldn't care to dress up. Were they someone she'd met? Or was Sasha talking about the time before Mhairi? Or perhaps even before the Dragon.

    "I haven't met either if them," Says Mhairi when Circe tells of her own meeting with the pair.

    One of which comes to the table on Sera's arm. The wispBrown Otter bites her lip as they start speaking. No matter your orientation Sera on a bad day was sure to stall your mind, her now in that dress and escorting (or was that being escorted by?) someone was sure to cause a few short circuits.

    Refraining from talking as they'd come for the Onyx Queen and wasn't the point of the Masquerade to not tell someone who was under the mask?

    ....even if everyone who knew her already knew who she was under the mask and paint.

    Circe grabbed yet another cookie, taking a bite out during a lull in the talking.

    As Sera approaches, the iron masked blonde gives the otter a curious look. Circe mouths the word duet, perhaps to see if Mhairi will go for it or blush. "Sera! God damn girl ya have gone up ta goddess tier with that outfit." The woman taps her mask making a clinking sound, "Make me a lil' jealous of ya. I'll have ta plan better."

    "Hiya John!"
    Circe warmly greeted him, "Good ta see yer gettin' along well. And ya were soooo worried 'bout it that night," again playing the part of the happiest Summer Queen most people had ever seen off a battlefield. "And look at who yer arm and arm with right now. Una coppia così carina.!" The iron masked blonde giggled into her hand, "Niente di cui preoccuparsi ora." the blonde flower woman blinked then smiled, "That is ta say ya got no worries bro."

    Very much like her Mask. However, her skin takes on a more reflective, rubbery texture and she appears... thinner... with limbs that are slightly too long and thin for her general proportions. There is also faint traces of webbing between her fingers and toes.

    Ingrid watched from across the table.

    "Oooh! Now look at you! Seraphina! So soon! Who is your delectable friend? And I thought you Onyx kept to yourself! Shocking!"

    The Emerald Courtier chuckled and winked at the pair.

    Mien

    Softly shimmering gold flakes catch the light whenever she moves, delicate gilded and diamond scales extenuate the luminescent sapphires that are her eyes. The ocean lives in Sera's eyes, perfectly cut sapphires, gleam in the light. Deeper shades always shifting like the tide. The scales trail up to her temples and forehead. Her hair reaches down her back, brushing the back of her calves, spun silver and gold. Perfectly placed streaks of sea green are seen throughout her hair. Very fine diamond dust falls loose from her hair when she moves, reflecting rainbows from the light. The scales on her hands are dulled by the simple fact that her hands are translucent. There was an iridescent scale like skin that pulled delicately up from her ears. The membrane shimmered and created three curly points.

    Cherry blossoms gilded in gold bloom from her hair, tumbling down as a warm rejuvenating spring breeze gently kisses the air with the scent of freshly cut grass. The sound of birds singing can be heard as the wildflowers grow and bloom in vibrant colors where she walks, swaying and lively in the breeze.

    Mask
    A fairly tall woman, roughly 5'11 with long, wavy dark brown hair. Her eyes are an intense, deep bright blue, reminding one of sapphires. Her lips are full and her skin is flawless. With that perfection comes a body that men fawn and drool over, and women envy.

    Treasured Nix

    At the compliment from Circe, there comes a light musical laugh, “Thank you Circe! I was worried it would have ben too much, but then figured it just couldn’t be too much. Probably be the only chance I get to wear it.” A smile, “But now your dress, I love the color! Such a rich purple, it looks amazing on you!” she gushed.

    "Maybe we should go shopping together sometime then." she offers.

    “Oh, you’ve meet before?”
    she asks looking between Circe and John. “That’s great.” She figured this was his first night at the Freehold. Sapphires narrow as the elf speaks, a smirk on her face, “Well, I hope whatever that meant, it was good.” She replies.

    She then looks at who it turns out was Ingrid, “You look stunning tonight Ingrid, love the dress.” Replies the Treasured, before nodding to the Darkling on her arm, “This is John, a recent arrival in the Freehold. This is Ingrid, our Director and Sovereign of Spring.”

    Attention was then turned to the...otter?

    "That's quite the costume. Very cute!"
    she says motioning to the mask, not quite sure who was behind it.

    Sasha

    Sasha's attention was so focused on everyone having a good time, the Fairest was perhaps overthinking her attention. She quickly brushed it off, after all, there were new Winters and they needed her.

    "Heavens, you are not interrupting at all." She smiled but it could be heard in her voice through the mask to Sera. Holding out her hand to greet the new arrival. "Hello John. I am pleased to meet you."

    "Forgive me if you have answered this question already," She nodded to a few who he may have spoken to previously. "Where did you move here from?" She was very curious to know, but mostly a screening question. "Did you have any troubles on your journey, or finding us when you arrived in Sacramento?" Since they had made a new Freehold, the answer would be very validating. She was more concerned that their new sigils were inadequate, as it had been so long since they had many new people, especially at once.

    "I'm sorry for all the questions, but I'm sure you understand." Darklings didn't always offer up information at first, it seemed. From her experience, they held many secrets that they wanted to keep tight to them.

    The conversation flows and Mhairi smiles around it, listening to everyone speaking while not being a super active participant was familiar, but unlike the times where her stutter and lack of confidance kept her silent, this was simple enjoyment of the atmosphere.

    "Thank you Sera," Mhairi says to her once and still motley mate. "I gotta say, that dress. Oh mah gods. I need the designer, because," a whistle, "Hot damn."

    John Doe

    John's Mask managed to conceal almost the entirety of his flesh. He was grateful to be hidden behind it; his face was flushed from the attention poured upon him...and the alcohol.

    In response to the Onyx Queen, he nodded, a bit too enthusiastically. "I'm originally from the Freehold of Laramie, Wyoming." He slowly adjusted his mask - despite it not requiring it. "I don't think it's safe there, any more. Dean of Students at University of Wyoming is Ensorcelled."

    John's free hand opened and closed several times, tapping his thumb to each digit. Those of the Onyx Court would recognize the code: We. Need. To. Talk.

    "I didn't have any trouble at all. I met Circe on the corner," he gestured with a thumb. A momentary lapse at the sudden realization of innuendo. An audible gasp. "I mean! I mean, I happened to find her when I was out exploring. She just happened to be at a corner when I found her." Turning to the Queen of Wrath, "I'm super sorry."

    He waved his free hand to Ingrid, "Hi," he said sheepishly. "I'm totally here to stay. I'm hoping to do some good work around here."

    "Thanks Sera, but I think purple looks a cooler when I'm feelin' a little bit more," yes the Summer Queen was going to say it, "Blue." Circe was just terrible, "I think it'd be fun Sera. Ya have set a pretty high standard for regal attire." Circe then sent a pouting glare at Mhairi, "Awww, only a whistle Mhairi? I thought we agreed that Sera's outfit deserves something more."

    She turned to Sera with a wide grin, "Like," and let out a soft howl, "DAMN GIRL!" The elf certainly believed in going big.

    "Oh so yer a college boy John? What ya major in?" Circe then sent a sideways glance at John at his choice of words for his first meeting with the Summer Queen. Even behind the mask one could tell she had an eyebrow raised. She points at Ingrid, "Ingrid was there but not on my corner. Plus I'm a little too old for anybody ta make that mistake. After all a queen is old when she," she giggled, "reaches the age of sovereignty." That was a horrible pun and a horrid setup.

    She then turned to John with a glare and pointing an angry finger at him, "But don't ya FUCKING dare," suddenly the blonde was smiling and the finger replaced with a thumbs up, "Apologize! It was a good one!"

    She was glad the faceless man was sticking around. "But if ya do feel the need ta apologize, ya can let me take ya out ta the laser range." A pun and a sales pitch, worth it.

    Quick is crowned with an ostentatious arc of hair that resembles a jagged bolt of lightning. He is very lithe and slightly taller than his Mask appears. His skin is a very pale shade of teal, and is covered in tiny filaments like cracks which glow an orange-red. The tips of his fingers and toes come to points, and his shoulders have hard, jagged projections growing from them.

    The host in blue lets Steampunk guy go back to the party, and eventually follows after. Everyone else seems wrapped up around the other new guy - which makes sense - but he'll give him a little space. Maybe catch him when he's not being swarmed by all the ladies in the 'Hold. Besides... Quick's glass is empty! He slips away to grab more wine and mostly misses the conversation going on around him.

    Though Circe's antics are hard to ignore. She's... she's all over the place. Quick shakes his head, smiling. "Might have imagined you smuggling things across the border... but not working the corner." he says, saluting Circe with his glass before taking a sip.
