Orienne Madre-Deline Verdun ap Entrope (Aurora Valence)

I had problems selecting a picture for this. Firstly, I don't really like uploading photos for characters. I'd rather describe a character well and leave any ambiguity up to the imagination of others. However, I do so as I realise its convention in pbem games these days and some people like a visual reference. I never (intentionally) select actors. My second problem was that I felt it was disrespectful to use actual images of people who have had any sort of extensive facial scarring for something as trivial as a roleplaying game. I would've drawn a picture and scanned it in, but that would look inconsistent since the other character portraits are photographs. Luckily, I found this excellent photoshopped image that is much like what I had in mind. Tough looking, not Holywood and glossy but still (I would argue, more) attractive while being clearly damaged. So many thanks to 'aseptyczny' on Flickr for uploading it!
I wanted an image to show Aurora smiling, she's more easy-going, at least on the surface, than this image suggests. Lets assume this picture was taken during or shortly after her ordeal in a Gulag-like prison camp.

I believe that the picture
I believe that the picture which will be used for Keese is going to be a hand-drawn affair, so there's no reason yours could not be one as well. Personally, it doesn't matter to me in the slightest. I think it's a matter of personal preference - so long as you're happy with it, I'm good.
