Rana den Vittra
First to go over to the dark Lord Gholan almost a thousand years "ago", only person to ever tame a dragon, hell-bent on her own path to either make her people change their ways and stop diminishing and dying, or help them die quicker. Died once, was brought back to life 700 years later when Lord Gholan came back, not entirely happy with the requirements to stay alive this time around, and very unhappy with her race. Seven hundred years and still no change.
Elves have started to join her side instead - don't deny your true nature, let your drive to rule and be first among equals out! - and they are known as the True Elves (at least among themselves).
More info at my DeviantArt page, where there's a different photo. I think her by-name should be... "the Belletristic"? "The Well-read"? "The powerful, wise and yeah yeah call me evil if you like, wimps"?
The larp campaign of Thule was celebrating its 25-year anniversary, I believe, and we all dressed up as characters we'd played in it. Rana is written into the fiction, long before I was asked to play her, but oooh she is fun.
Most of the costume is "right, what do I have in my wardrobe", because lo, I turned out to have made a lot of clothes that suit her when put together! The skirt was bought, the scarf also, and the brooches. The rest is handmade. The long vest is only lined in the upper part, because I didn't have enough fabric to do more. The blue overmost coat was originally made for Elenaria, but what the hell was I thinking with that colour for that character... No. Just no.
For many costumes/outfits, you'll want to stay within a certain range of colours or colour-family.
(In Sweden, larping is A LOT LESS about boffing around with swords than it is in the USA. Just... thought I better add that, for people who are not familiar. Well, not just in Sweden, I guess. Europe.)
