Face-up artist(s):

Date of acquisition:

08 Februari 2011

Provenance:

Secondhand at least

Reason for choice:

She was a price in a charity lottery years ago, at a doll and bear fair, a limited fullset. A dear friend of mine won her, but couldn't bond with her. I was mindlessly browsing Etsy one day and came across a gorgeous pair of Ice-fairy wings, which sparked an idea for the cute little lost dolly, so I took her in.

Best Points:

After some repair work and a newly added locking mechanism in her torso, as well as restringing, she suddenly posed like a dream. The size is great, she looks cute and small but not out of scale with YOSD size dolls.

Worst Points:

Odd size, so hard to find clothes and shoes for. Dreaming eyes that show hardly anything of the eye, but look weird without eyes too.

Her knee joints were chipped around and inside the elastics channel, which I repaired with some green stuff epoxy putty. I modified her torso to have a locking mechanism as well. Her ears were modified into elf-ears with green stuff.
Though I did order the wings I wanted for her, that turned into a huge dissapointment, so I made her some wings myself, using Liquid sculpy.

Eyes:

Doll-chateau pale blue glass eyes

Wig:

Handmade Ice-blue synthetic fur wig with long ponytail and bangs or handmade Cream white curly synthetic mohair wig.

Favourite colours:

White, light blue

Fashion style(s):

Fairy, dresses, skirts, layered looks, torn, shimmery.

Character gender:

female

Offsite roleplay:

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

Eirawen is an ice-fairy, she's a bringer of cold, ice, snow and winter. It's very hard on her to do what she does, because she knows the cold is disliked and can even cost plants, animals and even people their lives. She's scared and sad, doesn't want to let anybody get to close to her because she's afraid of what might happen to them. She doesn't want to grow up. She loves flowers, so she likes to wear clothes with flowery prints.
She tried to isolate herself from the world, but was found by Greer (Soom Grit R.) who took a liking to her.
