Hermitaday Day #11 - Pearl
Postmaster Pearl is done woo! Hard decision between just postmaster pearl without the headcanons or pearl with headcanons. In the end headcanon pearl won.
A few notes on the design down yonder-
You may notice the little moth like antennae on top of her head those are important to her everyday operations. If you've read my etho design post or if you've haven't, these are pre-redstone communication apparati. They basically act like those giant clunky car phones and constantly have to be manually positioned by the user in order to receive calls and messages but require absolutely no redstone to run, therefore you get much less headaches. When I get Mumbo's design done you'll see a similar design but not with the red and blue colorway. Pearl's is colored because they are solar powered and are color coordinated for easier repairs.
The little screen thing on her left arm is post-glowstone and part of the first set of screens made from redstone and quartz. Since Pearl is always on the move delivering mail, she felt like it was better to get something more lightweight and easier to operate especially when it's raining. It also has far better connectivity than previous coms devices which were styled like clunkier and boxier versions of the the t-mobile sidekick (if anyone knows what that is lmao) or a blackberry of a similar type. The only person who still even operates with those is surprisingly Xisuma but it's for more of the nostalgia kick than anything, even if he can simply and easily put the coms read out on his visor.
Anyways before I go on a super ramble about the rest of the headcanons I'll cut it off here! Enjoy! :3
