Guórén (genderbent ver.)

Face-up artist(s):

Me

Date of acquisition:

May 2023

Provenance:

Direct from Supia Doll

Reason for choice:

Was originally meant for their daughter's shell, but the head size worked better for this character instead.

Best Points:

Supia sculpting is very organic-looking, which has its own charm

Worst Points:

Face's profile is rather flat, and the asymmetry is noticeable on certain angles. It meant she needs far more styling/photography tricks to look good in some photoshoots.

She is the genderbent form of the other Guórén in my doll profiles list.

Eyes:

Custom eyes by Azazel.Mephisto (jesseleelooleeloo on IG)

Wig:

Hand-ventilated by yours truly

Favourite colours:

Yellows and earth tones, touched with black

Fashion style(s):

East Asian traditional (hybrid of Japanese and Chinese), mixed with more modern styles

Key fashion accessory:

A belt accessory that is the pair to what their S.O. has, plus a scarf that secretly conceals their shinobi cowl

Name story:

Guórén is actually their personal name, hardly ever used except by those who are close to them. It is written as 國仁 -- the character for "country" followed by "benevolence". Their alias in female form is Fēiyàn -- 飛燕 "flying swallow".

Character age:

Mid-twenties, 23 at the start of the L5R timeline

Character gender:

Bisexual

Offsite roleplay:

This doll's character is not available for offsite roleplay.

Backstory is the same as their default male form. They obtained the ability to switch into the genderbent form during one of their adventures.
