DVaWtK Appearance Masterpost

I put together a non-exhaustive of the descriptions in Devil Venerable Also Wants to Know.

Highlights: Wenren È wears black with gold embroidery that forms the constellation with his halberd. He is an inch taller than Yin Hanjiang. Even when he loses an arm, he projects an illusion that it's there.

Yin Hanjiang wears all black, then red with a silver belt. Wenren È notes that he doesn't stash his sword away. He starts with the red demonic sword that's forged into Army Crushing Sword/Spike which is black.

Baili Qingmiao wears her sect uniform that's yellow. She keeps her white silk weapon wrapped around her waist. She is a head shorter than Qiu Congxue who is noted as being on the taller side.

Shu Yanyan has the most outfit changes.

The commenters call Wenren È a 'pretty boy.'

The quotes are simply pulled in reading order.

YHJ: "wearing all black, a frosty expression on his face."

SYY: "a woman in purple clothes arrived leisurely. What she was wearing could less be called clothes and more a strip of purple gauze wound around her body, barely covering any vital areas, and instead outling her alluring figure, capturing people's attention." "While talking, she brought out a mirror and inspected her face, which looked no older tha a sixteen-year-old girl's" "a woman in a thin white robe and a pipa in hand" "This woman was Shy Yanyan. The two had gotten used to seeing her in revealing clothes, and this proper and pitiful Shu Yanyan like a white lotus flower that trembled in the wind looked really out of place to them."

BLQM: "Being the protagonist of a novel, Baili Qingmiao’s appearance had no flaws. She wore the buttercup yellow dress of the female disciples of Shangqing Sect, hair tied in a simple bun with an ordinary multicolored string. A fresh peach blossom was stuck in her hair, and her face held the same gentle flush as its petals. A few strands of hair fell elegantly across her forehead and framed her face, clear and free from makeup. She wore a pair of light yellow bead earrings and was filled with a youthful grace." -she also often has Moonlit Frost Silk around her waist snow version Violet Pavilion Master: "the wind and snow solidified into a woman in white. She had white hair and brows and lustrous skin like snow. Even her eyes were a pure white, with no pupils. She may have been a person, but she seemed more like a sculpture made of ice and snow." not snow: "The blue-robed woman bore the same features as the snow woman, but she had the complexion of a living person and black hair and eyes."

WRE: "Wenren È held his halberd in one hand. It was the same gold-threaded black as his robe, though now Baili Qingmiao could see that the gold on his robes and halberd linked together to form a diagram of the star Polis. As gold light shimmered on the black cloth, Polis in the sky above gave off a brilliant radiance."

YHJ about General WRE: “This subordinate saw the Venerable, wearing silver armor with a spear in hand, draped in a red cloak, leading a group of battered soldiers to face the invading forces.”

SYY: "Shu Yanyan looked up, and the seductive warmth in her eyes had vanished, only leaving ruthlessness. In her white robe, she seemed like a blooming spider lily, softly beckoning, leading the lost to the next shore."

Altar Master Miao (bug guy): "a purple robe flashed before him and he collapsed. The feminine and androgynous-looking Altar Master Miao"

QCX: "Qiu Congxue was over a thousand years old, but still appeared as a young woman, with smooth pale skin and jet-black hair, fine brows, and elegant eyes. They were tender yet heartless, making her a cold, distant beauty." blqm gives qcx "a light green gown, something that Wenren È had previously given to her." "The gown suited her very well. With her tall stature and slender waist, she seemed like a thin willow. Baili Qingmiao looked at her for a moment, then took out an ordinary jade hairpin she had bought and helped pin up Qiu Congxue’s hair." qcx loses an arm at the Golden Cliffs wre cuts his own arm to forge the sword YHJ w army crushing sword: "Suddenly, a metallic sound rang out from within the lightning, and a sword flash slashed through it, surging toward the heavens, charging into the storm and resembling a black dragon that thrashed within the clouds. After a flurry of other sword flashes, the stormclouds dissipated. Yin Hanjiang’s clothes were tattered and he held a sword in one hand, raised toward the clouds it had cleaved in one strike. Its blade, hilt, and tassel were all pure black, blade sparkling with points of light like stars."

-yhj takes out the ghost mask first this timeline when they're going back to the sect after the Sect War

SYY: "They ran into Shu Yanyan right in the sect’s main hall, wearing a set of lavish red robes" "Shu Yanyan’s red robe was a top-grade defensive item, so she disregarded the masked man who suddenly appeared, assuming he was one of the Altar Masters’ underlings. She raised a sleeve to block, but the blade cleaved through the robe and her arm alike."

Alter Master Shi: "Altar Master Shi was a pale and sickly-looking young man who looked like a scrawny intellectual-type."

to the Zhongli Clan: "Just like in old days, the Lord of Demons was accompanied by his two Protectors. His Left Protector stood at the side of his missing arm, while the Right Protector held a pipa, a silk veil over her face. She wore a thin blue robe which accentuated her figure, and was playing the pipa for Wenren È. Inadvertently, she let the scar on her right arm show. It stood out starkly against her fair skin and must’ve been caused by some terrible injury, garnering the pity of anyone who saw it."

ZLQ: "The highest ranking was Zhongli Qian, looking cultured and refined as he entered slowly, wearing white robes with a bamboo scroll in hand. He took the main seat, his bearing distinguished, each motion calm and at ease." "Zhongli Qian smoothly took the brush out of his hand, turned around, and wrote a poem across a wall. His bearing was dignified, his brush strokes free and graceful. Flecks of ink landed on his white sleeve, blossoming through the fabric. His literacy and bearing both stopped people in their tracks."

the commenters quoting Abusive Romance about BLQM: "big sparkling eyes" "In Abusive Romance, Baili Qingmiao often said that Zhongli Qian always looked tired, and that she wished he would relax a bit, smile a little easier."

Shi Congxin: "a sickly man sitting beside her. He looked young, not more than his twenties, and his skin was so pale that his fingertips appeared a bit translucent in the lamp light. He wore a thin white single robe with a black overcoat thrown over, its dark brown fur collar making his face look even paler by contrast. His long eyelashes were lowered as he focused on the needle in his hand."

*He curses BLQM's left eye. She uses her right eye for the next 30 years. She uses a black band to cover her eye. ZLQ uses white and a walking cane.

ZLQ: "He had a slight smile that put people at ease, and truly fit the expression of a gentleman being unparalleled in the world." "It seemed that his hair had turned white overnight twenty-two years ago. With white hair and a young appearance, he appeared even more like an immortal now." "He tied up his hair, fixing up his appearance."

The star of the show, Rod of Heartbreak: "Su Huai was swinging his bonded weapon at her—the Rod of Heartbreak. The Rod of Heartbreak was forty meters long and as thick as Baili Qingmiao’s waist. Zhongli Qian and Qiu Congxue’s help had been needed to refine it. It was capable of changing size to the wielder’s will." "Su Huai, having missed Baili Qingmiao, spun the rod in his hand and transformed it into two thin sticks, about to whack her again."

Violet Pavilion Master 2!: "a young man in lavish silver robes emerged. He swept his gaze over Baili Qingmiao’s face and said, “Perhaps we met in another life.” His black hair was gathered together by a silver band, with a few loose strands draped over his shoulders. He had cold elegant eyes and colorless lips, and upon catching sight of Baili Qingmiao, had shown a smile without any hint of warmth."

YHJ disguising WRE (as himself): "Yin Hanjiang was quite tall, just an inch shorter than Wenren È. He gazed intently at Wenren È’s face, shaping it carefully. After he created a face, he hesitated, and was about to wipe it out and start over when Wenren È said, “Are you done yet? Let me see.” "With a flick of a finger, a mirror of ice appeared before him. Wenren È stared silently at the face in the reflection. "This was exactly the same as his face. Only the eyes were slightly different, looking a bit more relaxed and resembling the General Wenren stationed at the border town one hundred years ago."

Violet: "He raised his hands, ringing a pair of golden bells tied to his wrists."

QCX: "Hot winds stirred her black robe, revealing her body which was half flesh and half bone." "Half of Qiu Congxue’s face slowly turned into a skull."

at the volcano: "In their twenty-two years of travelling together, this was the first time Su Huai had seen Zhongli Qian’s eyes. They were stunningly bright and perceptive eyes, calm and penetrating. "Using the tracking curse, Zhongli Qian could see what no one else could. "He saw how, as Baili Qingmiao charged into the flames, they parted for her and opened up a path. The flames feared her, yet wished to harm her. She sustained burns one after another, but she didn’t flinch, continuing her search." "A figure covered head to toe with soot charged out of the sea of flames. She held a silver silk sash, the other end tied around several dozen unconscious Violet Spirit Pavilion disciples. One of them carried a mature stalk of the Lockheart Herb. "Baili Qingmiao’s legs had been burned and she could only stand by leaning against Su Huai. She wiped at the ash on her face"

BLQM: "She looked directly at the elders seated above her, her gaze unwavering." "Her back was straight, and it seemed her tiny shoulders could hold up the weight of the world."

BLQM's Moonlit Frost Silk is destroyed at the Blood Hell trap. YHJ's original ghost mask crumbles after.

Army Crushing: "the Army Crushing Sword, which had been sitting silently on the ground, lunged up and pierced through the whip. It had changed its shape, no longer a longsword, but a vicious-looking triangular spike. "It was no longer the Army Crushing Sword, but the Army Crushing Spike."

While WRE is in the Blood Hell, QCX loses most of the rest of her flesh and when YHJ returns the rest of it.

YHJ: "Deputy Sect Leader Yin, wearing a crimson robe, with a silver belt that outlined the slim shape of his waist."

BLQM's depression era: "Baili Qingmiao didn’t notice that Yin Hanjiang had cut several gashes into her dress." "She could only slowly shrink to the other side of the bed, huddling in her blanket, looking pitifully weak and powerless."

WRE post-blood hell: "He wore only a white inner robe, covered with holes made by magical weapons. With a wave of his hand, a grey robe draped itself over his body. Along with the robe appeared three books and a blood-red stone."

"As if the person wearing them had vanished, the grey outer and white inner robe passed through Wenren È’s body and gently landed on the ground. Though both his clothes had fallen, Wenren È still appeared to be wearing the black robe he had used to protect Yin Hanjiang."

looking 👀: "He had never seen Yin Hanjiang like this before. The Sect Leader Yin he remembered dressed in all black and was silent as a shadow. Though Wenren È knew he was good-looking, ordinarily, he was so reserved he was easy to overlook. "This Yin Hanjiang dressed in scarlet, his hair loose and fluttering in the breeze, a vicious spark in his eyes. Were he in a crowd, his figure would instantly draw one’s sight."

SYY: "Shu Yanyan went pale, her previously languid and unconcerned expression instantly becoming serious. She had been wearing a thin light purple outfit which traced her perfect curves, but the moment Yin Hanjiang’s gaze fell on her, a white cloak appeared over her body, covering her from neck to toe so that not an inch of skin showed."

BLQM: "Yin Hanjiang tore a piece off Baili Qingmiao’s clothes to wipe his hands, then tossed it at Yao Jiaping’s face."

WRE: "Wenren È also brought out an ordinary dark blue robe and put it on. He clutched the divine blood tight in one hand, hooking Yin Hanjiang’s waist with the other so that he couldn’t escape." "Zhongli Qian turned toward Shi Congxin. His eyes were blindfolded, yet Shi Congxin had a feeling like all his thoughts were exposed in front of him. It must be his imagination—it was just the moonlight shining through a window and illuminating Zhongli Qian’s face, that was giving him such a strange feeling." "Shi Congxin avoided looking at Zhongli Qian, scared his intentions would be seen through. Staring at the Sect Master, he saw Wenren È dip his head, drawing closer and closer to Yin Hanjiang’s face, until Shi Congxin’s face and ears flushed red. He stared unblinking, trying to figure out what the Sect Master was actually doing, but Wenren È’s long hair slid down and blocked the two’s faces from view."

ghost mask 2!: "Shi Congxin took out a top-grade piece of underworld iron from his storage item, something he was saving for crafting a bonded weapon when he reached Mahayana. “It doesn’t need to be so… whatever, you can go.” Yin Hanjiang took the piece of iron and shooed Shi Congxin away. "Shaping it with his hands and the Burning Sky Drum’s fire, he very quickly turned it into a ghost mask."

BLQM: "Seeing her in such a mess, Yin Hanjiang slowly pulled her sleeve over, ripped off a piece, and used it to wipe nonexistent dust off the Army Crushing Spike’s scabbard. "Every time he wanted to kill Baili Qingmiao, he used this to keep himself in check. "Having gotten half her sleeve ripped off, Baili Qingmiao’s thoughts were interrupted. She stared wordlessly at her tattered dress, not understanding what enjoyment Yin Hanjiang got out of using her as a rag." "Since Baili Qingmiao’s clothes were full of holes, she asked Yin Hanjiang to wait while she changed into something other than a rag for the Army Crushing Spike. "She had just put on the yellow uniform of the disciples of Shangqing Sect"

Blood Flame Silk: "Baili Qingmiao received it, instantly feeling her body fill with power. The stone transformed into a red silk ribbon, becoming her new bonded weapon."

This is YHJ's no touchy era so he often puts on gloves to not touch people and he transports BLQM by wrapping her entirely in rope "a bundle so that no skin showed" [while he's in Yao Jiaping's skin]

"Yao Jiaping ripped off the skin on his face, revealing an extremely handsome, yet somewhat cruel face. He smiled calmly at the Sect Master. “This Lord is Yin Hanjiang.""

WRE[mini flashback]: A wave of the halberd called up the powers of the Northern and Southern Dippers. Above Wenren È’s head, a star map formed. "Fighting intent allowed Wenren È to not feel the pain of his wounds. The power of the stars replenished his drained spiritual essence. Wenren È’s black robe fell, revealing starlight shining on his back. "It wasn’t a technique he had purposefully cultivated, but the scars left from his life-and-death experiences on the battlefield as a mortal. "The scars mysteriously connected into a map of the fourteen major stars, steadily absorbing energy from them. With a swing of the Seven Killing Halberd, the unleashed power of the stars injured all of the hundred-plus people maintaining the array."

The Big Flashback: "A pair of tiny, blackened hands held a white towel out to him. After taking it, Wenren È froze. His servant boy was gone, and in his place was a child who appeared just five or six years old. His skin was covered with purple welts, and half his flesh was rotten. He was dirty and stank, holding up a towel with trembling hands. "It was Yin Hanjiang." "In his childhood, Wenren È was a young general-in-training, always dressed in white brocade and a bit of a show-off. " '“This child was saved a little late,” Doctor Li said, shaking his head. “His left leg will probably be crippled, and there’ll be scars left all over his face and body.' "He thought he had lain low, but hadn’t considered that in the border town, there was only him who was a young teenager with good martial arts skills who spent all day leaping across rooftops. His pair of bright and scornful eyes were different from anyone else’s in the town and could be recognized at a glance."

"Yin Hanjiang’s face was covered with scars, and he had originally thought of wearing a mask, but he noticed that many people in the border town had scarred faces, and there were some with missing hands and legs, but no one looked at them differently."

"Wenren È rode a horse, carrying six-year-old little Yin Hanjiang in his lap, heading slowly toward the border with travel documents in hand. "Little Yin Hanjiang lifted a hand and touched the bandages on Wenren È’s face. '“Do I look scary?” Wenren È asked. "His hands and face were covered with burn wounds, which young Wenren Wu had inflicted himself." "Since Wenren Wu was a fugitive, in order to protect himself and not bring anyone else trouble, he threw himself into a bonfire, burning his face. Before his burns healed, he sped away from the capital, running into a checkpoint on the way where a disbelieving officer ripped off his bandages, revealing crimson and bloody flesh."

"Wenren Wu’s upper robe fell away, revealing the scars crisscrossing his body which he had gained in years of fighting at the border—the proof of him protecting his homeland."

end flashback

QCX: "A black-robed woman with a frosty expression marched into the hall—Qiu Congxue. "She hadn’t been in a good mood lately. It had taken a lot of effort to get rid of her flesh, but it had all regrown."

ZLQ: "After the curse and gu were removed, Zhongli Qian took off his blindfold. The Xuanyuan Sect main hall was bathed in sunbeams. He blinked a few times, feeling like the world he saw was different from what he remembered. His hair also slowly returned to black.

"Baili Qingmiao also removed the blindfold around her left eye."

WRE: "He couldn’t help clasping his hand under their wide sleeves."

YHJ: "Yin Hanjiang’s long hair, usually tied up neatly, was loose over the bed, with one lock being lain on by Wenren È, but he didn’t mind. He picked up a lock of their entwined hair and began playing with it."

ZLQ: "Zhongli Qian, who had been youthful and handsome for many years: … "After some thought, he replied, “After all these years at Xuanyuan Sect, I’m still a teacher of the Dao and haven’t changed.” “I know.” Shu Yanyan suddenly stood up. Stroking his chin, she said tenderly, “You’ve lost weight."
