@geryuthetzakandi and @wynterwulf7 -- I wound up combining your asks lol

Sweet Pea occasionally wears her mane differently-- this style, with the fur gathered into little pigtails, is associated with hunting or fighting, and she is outfitted accordingly. The paint she’s wearing is a traditional design that’s meant to look intimidating and scary, evoking having shoved one’s entire face inside a fresh kill (subtle symbolism is for other people), but she’s giving her look a friendlier touch with some nice flowers.

She’s headed for a diplomatic meeting with the community leaders of the new human village at the edge of her clan’s territory. The humans always seem a bit more willing to agree to the gnolls’ terms when they dress like this, for some reason...
