Walk prouder scream louder ja kohta vedetään taas

[ID: a drawing of Délas (she/her), who is Aedrii-Nú's mother. She has brown skin and mild Treacher-Collins Syndrome. She has dark brown eyes and hair, with her hair in several shoulder-length braids. She has glasses and a big tattoo of a flower on one shoulder. She is wearing a sunhat with a big brim, a tank top with a pattern around her waist like a belt of stars, a toolbelt, cargo shorts, and rubber boots. She has one stud earring and small tattoos on her first knuckles. Next to her is the following set of notes:

early-mid 30s

Archaeologist working at the ruins of Tshílai. Lives with Chiishé-Faindh, Aedrii-Nú, Halek's family during the off-season.

Ethnically half-Ðíúharlaes and half-Beri. Beri parent was born in Rāmia (possibly in a city with few other Beri immigrants) and grandparents found assimilation more socially conducive so she is not very connected to Beri culture, Happy to see Aedrii-Nú engaging in it with Halek's Beri family.

From a wealthier family than Chiishé-Faindh- still middle class but was able to get a university degree as a young adult.

Also has (milder) TCS

Raised Senci, not religious anymore

Artist's (additional) notes:

Délas is Halek's aunt by marriage; her husband is his uncle Chiishé-Faindh and her daughter is his little cousin Aedrii-Nú. Always very exciting when she comes home. (Aedrii-Nú has Treacher-Collins Syndrome too, inherited from her, hence "also.")

I actually really like how this came out! Usually in the notes I have a list of things I wish had worked better, but I think the drawing itself and the photo's lighting both worked out pretty well this time! It's a smaller image because of the character notes beside her, so it's hard to see that her braids are separate pieces, but I still think it looks pretty good and that was unavoidable if I wanted a picture of the whole page.

Her one earring is for her marriage. Chiishé-Faindh has the matching one.

Right now, high waists are considered feminine and low waists are considered masculine in Rāmia; Délas doesn't find high-waisted shorts comfortable with all the squatting and bending she does for her job, but luckily there are also a lot of clothes patterned to evoke certain styles of waistline that might not be comfortable, and the belt of stars printed on is pretty neat. I tried to give her clothes that would be practical and comfortable for field archaeology. Also, the photo isn't really high-definition enough to see, but I've recently found myself really enjoying the look of hexagonal/octagonal glasses frames so I gave her those.
