Aramy Basquiale

Face-up artist(s):

hortus conclusus

Date of acquisition:

March 2017

Provenance:

Bought through Alice's Collections

Reason for choice:

His sleek, pretty, and androgynous features were a perfect match for my OC.

Best Points:

The sculpt looks exactly like the character, and the faceup is just gorgeous (those lips!!!). I also like his relatively narrow shoulders for a 70cm doll and the sculpting of his throat/collarbone.

Worst Points:

I hate pretty much everything about his body from the neck down. It poses badly and isn't even aesthetically pleasing. One day I'm going to replace it.

Eyes:

Red 16mm glass

Wig:

White fiber

Favourite colours:

White, silver, red

Fashion style(s):

All of the fancy hanfu and jewelry. The fancier the better.

Key fashion accessory:

His choker/collar (from brighnasa).

Name story:

He's named after the character he's shelling. I can't remember how I came up with Aramy's name in the first place.

Character age:

21

Character gender:

Male

Offsite roleplay:

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

"What I am given, I will not accept without a word. What I am given, I will pay back a thousand times!"

Lord Aramy Basquiale is one of the main characters of my novel Our Secret Storm. He is the consort of the crown prince, a beautiful nobleman who appears to be demure and submissive to his partner. But behind the well-painted mask, he has a sharp, scheming mind and more ambition than he knows what to do with. For years, he's been spinning an intricate plan to one day take the throne himself. In any other story he'd be the villain, but here he's one of the heroes!

A manipulative master of deception, Aramy cares about nothing besides accomplishing his goal. As a result, he sees people as things to be used, including his own bonded partner; there's certainly no lost love between them. But when a naive new courtier arrives at the palace, Aramy becomes increasingly intrigued by the noble, pure-hearted young man, and he discovers to his dismay that he might have feelings after all....
