They're Aquamancers; if they can magically flood a desert, I'm sure they can waterproof their clothing.

That's an awesome pic, with bonus points for not being massively proportioned.

Then they'll just have to deal with it, Nika. tongue.gif

Pishposh. I can't see a lovely woman like her drowning (if a Merian can drown) in a poorly-fitting neck-to-knee number.

I'd just like to say that I love her face. She does look fishy, which is great!
Shiri2005-04-16 14:36:46
Merian can't drown, silly.
Shoshana2005-04-16 14:36:53
*snicker* It's funny, the one that I imagine being the most human-like turns out to be the least... But I really like this one anyway, it's better than my vague zora-like mental image biggrin.gif.

But ye Gods, look at the fist holding the staff! It's like wrinkled and gnarled... and large... and very mannish, with huge fingers and knuckles... not to mention the brass knuckles...

You mean they aren't rings? blink.gif

Wouldn't the clothing start floating once underwater though? evil.gif Doesn't even have to be underwater. A strong breeze and she might as well not be wearing anything.

It would both float around and become see-through.
Malicia2005-04-16 14:59:03
That's pretty nice. I like.
Manjanaia2005-04-16 15:44:45
Funny, I've also pictured Merians as being Zora-like humans. I like that better though. She is still humanish, but her face is good. No fins in the arm area though.

Wow... That is amazing...

Thats really really good. Congrats to the artist, your AMAZING....

WOOOW I like this one so far out of all of them, looks true to Merian (not human with small modifications). And she looks sexy too XP Very very very nice! biggrin.gif

I like it, my favourite so far.

The spell isn't bubble, the casting message for bubble shows you blowing a big giant bubble at them. The only spell that involves balls of water is dilute, I'm guessing that's what it is! (If it was intended to reflect an actual spell at all.)

Mebbe he's referring to her backside?

Bubble.

Off-screen is a very frightened Erion, saying "FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, I DIDN'T KNOW HE WAS MARRIED!"

Ahahaha. Yea, probably. Except that'd be more of an "off-screen running in the opposite direction".
Jack2005-04-16 18:42:56
Yeah!

And screaming "RHYSUS, CALL HER OFF!", while a male merian in a crown chuckles appreciatively.

Though in all honesty, what clothing is practical for a race that swims underwater?  fishing1.gif

Absolutely nothing.. Like Kaileigh tongue.gif Great I guess that makes her a mutt. Sorry I happen to like Noses.

and THE STAFF IS WHITE *twitchspazdies*

The staff is made of a bluish-white coral, porous and continuously dripping
with water. Seashells of various sizes and shapes grow upon the coral,
glistening like jewels of the ocean. At the tip of the staff is a large
opalescent pearl that shines with a lustrous white light.

I can see the Merian fighting the Dracnari (for second place in my favorite list), both those graphics are great... with much detail.

Hm... fried Merian with garlic.
