Virga

Face-up artist(s):

MaddieMunnMakes (me)

Date of acquisition:

February 6, 2016

Provenance:

Direct from Withdoll

Reason for choice:

The blue resin, the ghostly hands and feet, the sparkling eyes... She stole my heart

Best Points:

Posing, sculpting, color, came with two sets of hands and feet

Worst Points:

She tends to be very slightly floppy even with tight elastic

The Withdoll 58cm SWD Girl body is my favorite doll body I've ever handled. The sculpting is beautiful and delicate, the engineering is excellent, and overall it just has such an elegant look and seems to effortlessly fall into natural-looking poses. Plus it comes with two sets of hands (one relaxed and one for holding things) and both flat and heel feet. I highly recommend it.

Eyes:

16mm Oscar Doll jewel eyes (from Cecily the Polluted Girl set)

Wig:

For My Doll FMDL-1058 in Sweet Milk

Favourite colours:

blue, grey, white, green, beige

Fashion style(s):

Mori

Key fashion accessory:

small blue rose hairclip

She wears mori-inspired styles--lots of drapey layers with understated patterns and interesting textures--in various cool colors.

Name story:

You know those grey streaks you see coming off of the undersides of clouds when it's raining in the distance? That's called virga. Her ghostly blue appearance made me imagine her character as a sort of atmospheric nymph, so it seemed like a fitting name.

Character age:

She's an aspect of nature, so she doesn't really have a concept of age. But she's probably been around in some form or another for at least a few thousand years.

Character gender:

Female

Offsite roleplay:

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

Virga is an atmospheric nymph who was drawn to Millicka Jade's unusual aura and has since then more or less taken up residence with her. She was the first supernatural being to appear to Jade, and she helps keep the others under control when Jade's out of the house. She generally has a gentle, mellow personality, but she can be a bit flakey, and on the rare occasion where she's angered she can be quite destructive. In addition to the weather-related abilities you would expect from an Aura (mythological name for a breeze nymph), she apparently has some polymorphic power as well, as she sometimes changes Jade's cat into a human form.
