Shen Qiao

Face-up artist(s):

Loongsoul official

Body blushing artist(s):

Aegxir (me)

Tattoo artist(s):

Loongsoul official

Date of acquisition:

May 2021

Provenance:

I am the first owner

Reason for choice:

Dong Jun's sculpt gave off a lofty and strict appearance that was neither harsh or unkind. His full set is beautifully made and Loongsoul is always a good choice for its posing ability!

Best Points:

Loongsoul's faceup is worth every penny. He literally looks like he popped out of his official promotional shots

Worst Points:

Loongsoul's white skin is really white and hard to find skintone matches from time to time.

Shen Qiao from the novel "Qian Qiu" (Thousand Autmns). He is a Taoist priest who once at the top of sect, fell from grace. Most people are stunned by his beauty, like an immortal untainted by the world's hardships. He is the husband to Yan Wushi

Eyes:

Loongsoul

Wig:

Loongsoul (Ketu-Yue Yao)

Favourite colours:

Green, blue

Fashion style(s):

Shen Qiao is not one who favors frivolty or extravagance despite his blessings as a master of his sect. He would wear Taoist-style hanfu or modernized hanfu if given the chance

Key fashion accessory:

Bamboo stick given to him by his husband

Shen Qiao's "official" robes are Taoist style hanfu. Currently, he is robed with Helian Rongying's second version hanfu which evokes the colour of the bamboo, a major motif of his design. He carries around a bamboo pole to guide him and serve as an alternate weapon during the time he was blind. His eyes are light coloured to make it look unusual due to his temporary loss of eyesight--and also part of my headcanon that his eyes changed through his healing process.

Male

Offsite roleplay:

This doll's character is available for offsite roleplay.

Shen Qiao is disciplined, calm and very kind. He rarely shows his emotions due to his restraint as a master of the sword and would express his distaste for evil by protecting the innocent and only harming those who are irredeemably evil. Despite his blindness brought by the poison given to him by his beloved brother and the loss of his status he bears no grudges towards the world.
