💇 👀 for Oya and Rory 👀

💇 What is your OC’s hairstyle? How do they maintain their hair? Do they wash it and/or cut it regularly? Have they ever dyed their hair?

Oya likes their hair short and never lets it get past their shoulders. They like it floofy and soft, and won't say no to some nice scented shampoo, but hot showers are hard to come by these days... They do try to keep their hair as nice as possible with what is available to them at the time.

They did have to dye their hair twice. One as a dare and the other to blend in.

Rory keeps his hair very short. He decided to let it grow for a while a few years back, and it got matted and sun-bleached while he was roaming around Dry Top. Then he cut it all off again (with the exception of a little braid because he liked it) when he got to Verdant Brink because it was getting to hard to manage with all those air currents. He tries to take care of it the best he can but isn't very particular about it.

He never dyed his hair, but it did change color over the years. his natural color is chocolate brown, turned to honey-blonde after Dry Top and stayed that way for a long while (the desert sun of Elona didn't help). Aurene's brand and the use of her crystals turned his hair white.

👀 What is the first physical feature people notice when they see your OC? Why?

Oya's bright topaz yellow crest is what stands out the most. Even though their hair cover up part of it on their forehead, the lines going over their eyes and on their cheekbones tend to catch one's eyes. That, and the golden piercings.

Being an asura, the first thing you notice about Rory is obviously his size. Other than that, the white hair is pretty noticeable, especially in contrast with his dark complexion.

___ Thank you 💙
