Cerphedis' Gondor outfit got a slight update with the Medium Nadhin Jacket! Still not sure if I like this better than the Hyrde-Breost in the first iteration, but I'm also still on the lookout for gloves & boots I like better...ah well, work in progress!
Ali is on the tail end of Trollshaws quests now 😊 I keep having to freeze her level for the sake of tokens for landscape difficulty, but it's fine! Tho the festival slowed her down
I can't believe I don't get Rivendell guide until 46. That's so far away with how slow I'm leveling 😭
But I ended up getting distracted and decided to make a purple outfit for her. Nothing vibrant since she's a hunter (that's for Nen to have fun with). I don't like how the boots clip during certain emotes like /appraise, but they look nice with the outfit anyway so it's fine lol
I'm also doing the bingo questline as I go on this character. Might as well, since the quests aren't out of the way. I also discovered Willem Wisker sleeps by the fire! What a cutie 🥺
Diiiiiiid I mention I made a River Hobbit Lore-Master? :D
Her name's Rhianlin(Rhia, for short), I'm trying out yellow line with her, since Ziin is blue and Hal is red, and it's her mission in life to get Meneldir to crack one (1) genuine smile.

Cerphedis has walked the Paths of the Dead and finally reached Gondor! I've attempted to put together a Gondorian outfit in honor of her homecoming.
She's wearing Hyrde-Breost, dyed black; Lenni's old Decisive Cloak of the Citadel Guard Captain (or was this one Corbous' old cloak? Someone was kind enough to leave it in the wardrobe, for which Cerphedis thanks them); Medium Nadhin Shoulders with a lovely White Tree pin or embroidery or something; Reinforced Leather Dunlending Boots, dyed black; Argent Dwarf-Make Gloves, dyed black; and the Groom's Myrtle Circlet from the Midsummer festival. It'll do for now, but it still needs some work...
Ah, the grandeur of the White Mountains behind her, and...oh, what's this big marble?
When I say homecoming, though, I don't think this specific part of Gondor (the Blackroot Vale) is where she's actually from. Maybe just further southwest, beyond Dol Amroth, maybe Pinnath Gelin or thereabouts; but for the moment I'm leaning towards her home being in Far Anórien. Off in this direction, on the other side of the Ered Nimrais...
Meanwhile, while she was at the Stone of Erech, she met a Swan Knight! And his Loyal Horse!
She also pouted about not being able to acquire all the lovely Gondorian-style dresses as cosmetics. Can't a girl just wear something half as nice as the NPCs get?
Ah, but then I did see one NPC in a dress that's actually in my wardrobe! (It's the Dress of the Anórien Autumn, I think from the fall festival, and this only strengthens my case that Cerphedis is from Far Anórien rather than West Gondor...) I can't dye it quite that dark a blue as the NPC version, but...Cerphedis is comforted knowing she at least has one proper Gondorian dress, just in case she gets summoned to, like, the King's wedding or something.
She still absolutely needs one of their cute slouchy berets, though.
