OK, coming off of cloud nine for a sec. Explanation: I know a girl's gotta defend herself out in the wide, wild world, so first I thought I'd go with your basic mysterious badass swordswoman look, a la:

Here, I had everything but the katana, which is what would really pull the outfit together. I've been questing for this bugger for weeks and weeks, and the prices just get higher, way faster than I can scrape together the cash.
Then I got to thinking... who says my methods of self-defense need be merely mundane? Right now, I'm liking the whole scorceress look a lot better. Power, elegance, and mystery, all wrapped up into one. Total magic-high.
I guess I'm feelin' lucky tonight, because I rushed out and got not only that new summoning tome that looks so cool, but also the Spirit Falcon I've been dying for. Lunasariel, Feral Sorceress, is on the prowl! Right now, I'm looking for some different colored gowns. All I've got is blue and green, which while pretty on their own, tend to blend in with my magical paraphanelia.
OK, a bit later now. Tektek decided to short out on me, but I got what I came for, and more. I've got a couple of good, basic work gowns in line for summoning, and something a bit more... practical in mind for my own dear Spirit Falcon. Ooooh!!! I just got an idea for "Falcon in the Dive," aka Chauvelin, archrival of the Scarlet Pimpernel!!! Oooh, I should do him too. Damn, Tektek is still shorted. But I know what I'm going to do!
