That's not a bad look actually. Still far inferior to proper eldritch robes, but it'll do.I didn't mean a modern suit. More something renaissance era.
Apparently the word I was looking for is "doublet".
As long as he doesn't wear garish yellow man-tights with them, at least.

No slippers, thank god.

Come on, there are perfectly decent slippers out there. Not the shitty hipster stuff in western shops, but the colorful oldschool stuff you can get at a market in Algiers or something.
EDIT: But the "Aladdin slippers" (the ones that go up at the end and curve back a lot, that come up in some films but that no-one seems to ever actually wear IRL) do sound like an eye-tearing monstrosity.

The thing is that I associate robes with a bathrobe. Not terribly dignified.
Take the doublet I've posted, a pair of dark trousers and sensible, dark leather boots. Wear our golden cloak drawn over the left shoulder, keeping the right shoulder and arm exposed.
That's stylish and looks well on a king.

I've just always hated slippers, and I'm glad we don't wear them.

I just feel that Viserys is too grounded in reality with his actions and policies to pull off the mystical look.
These do indeed look fine, but it's not something that meshes with his character. It's a fine look for a sorcerer, but not for a statesman.
Technically Viserys does wear them just not in public. Even in Sorcerer's Deep stone floors can get chilly in the morning.

I shall take the half-victory, then. Just so long as they never make it in public.

And with his Vulnerability to cold, those floors feel 50% chillier to Viserys than to normal people.

@TalonofAnathrax, I didn't find something neat to illustrate my point, but I stumbled upon these two:
They somehow greatly remind me of Rina and Tyene respectively.

Dragons have natural Endure Elements, unless these floors are supernaturally chilly they shouldn't be that bad.And with his Vulnerability to cold, those floors feel 50% chillier to Viserys than to normal people.
I wonder if that could be a thing in the Shadow Tower?

Tyene, unfortunately, is blonde with blue eyes. Her mother was a Reachwoman.
Those are great pictures, though.

I know. Though the clothing style fits so well to her.

It could be recolored, though the skin tone would also need to be made lighter. Tyene really doesn't look Dornish at all.

If you want to really have the old gods fed, support my plan to make a resurrection Heart tree for the Sarnori undead, with the cost of a resurrection from the tree being a willing sacrifice, the old gods would get a whole lot of willing sacrifices that way, and the Sarnori undead, would get a way for a significant part of them to return to life, which they would be grateful for, meaning they would be likely to be easy to incorporate into our empire.
@DragonParadox would a Heart tree with a resurrection effect that require a willing sacrifice work? And if it do work, I would assume there would be a minimum HD the sacrifice must have, what HD would that be if such a tree can be grown.
We Danish do so all the time too, it's cold down here, bare feet is only comfortable a small part of the year.

Amusingly enough, Lya looks more Dornish than Tyene apparently
@Azel, I added that Rina picture to the character art threadmark. I also discovered that there's a pretty low image limit on this site, so it's just a link. Once I have a dozen or so links I'll just make a second character art threadmark (probably for Rina, Malarys, Waymar, ect) and put the pictures in there directly (kinda like what Duesal did with his Larder and Trophy threadmarks.

No, this will not work. Why? Because far too much time has passed. At CL 20, resurrection can bring people back from 200 years ago. At most we could resurrect people from 193 AC, and that is two-to-three-hundred years after the Century of Blood.
If they want to come back to life, it cannot be through resurrection.
Yep. Lya has the Rhoynish looks, and Tyene is fair-skinned, blonde-haired, and blue-eyed.Amusingly enough, Lya looks more Dornish than Tyene apparently

I am curious. Do you guys remember the Weirwood spears? Could that be used against the Sarnori to trap their undead bodies in them and plant weir woods that way? Of course those who go willingly don't need that to happen to them.

You know, what ever happened to Nymeria? I remember she joined us after we first visited Dorne, had an interlude, and then I can't recall her appearing in the quest again.

She came to Sorcerer's Deep to spy on us, then joined her dad on a quest to the Rhoyne, and now she's back in Dorne.
We thought she was signing up to be our baby adventurer, but apparently not.

Oh I thought it was a more recent thing, sorry not that up to date on when things happened.
I do have a backup plan for how to achieve resurrection, although this need 2 Heart trees, as it need 4 spells, 1 create soulgem, 2 false life, to enable undeads soul to be captured, 3 Polymorph any object, to turn a random animal into a human body, and 4 a spell to combine the soul in the soulgem with the body.
And of course this also mean that if you were transformed this way, you should avoid anything that dispels magic, as that will turn you into an animal.
2 Undeads willingly sacrifice themselves before the Heart trees, 1 of the undeads is restored in a new body, ideally the Heart tree decide who is restored to life, so there is no case of undeads losing the draw, and trying to withdraw their agreement to participate.

I posted a picture for Malarys some time ago that I thought was spot on for him.
