Isobel's appearance could use a reworking

Remember this promo image with Bastian?
Now compare her to Isobel
I like that lady with Bastian better, and think they should make Isobel more like the top one. Right now, she looks kind of plain like the epitome of a generic random NPC.

✭✭Yeah she does look very plain and has a sour expression that makes her feel like a school marm. Not someone you look forward to spending time with as a companion. Put some makeup on her or soften her features, make her feel like someone you would be interested in talking with. Right now if I passed her on the street, I'd hurry by that sour puss face and never look back.HEARTHLIGHT - A guild for housing enthusiasts! Contact @Kesstryl in-game to join.2 -

How does she look sour? The only sourpuss looking there is the khajiit.
I think she looks fine, albeit suffering from the usual blandness young female bretons do.[Lie] Of course! I don't even worship Daedra!6 -
SydneyGrey✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭I like the way she looks.
In particular, I'm glad they aren't giving her that leather band across her forehead. I never liked that thing. (It would be ok if we could take it off and put it on her at will, though. If it's stuck on her head permanently ... oh heck no.) 7 -

✭✭✭[snip] Why won't [snip] let us use our alts as companion skins? Or at least use all our collectible tabs to customize our companions? The actual system, as it is, lacks so many things in customization [snip]

✭✭Isobel looks fine, yeah she has some fanatical cruelty in her eyes (like someone who kills little kittens with no problem only because gods want it), but it can fit a "knight" personality
For me khajiit is a disaster. I want so badly moral-flexible, funny khajiit companion. It's female and female khajiits are mostly less funny than male khajiits (drunk khajiits don't count). But it's ok, I can live with it if she has good personality. The real disaster is her look - triangle face, really awful dreads (I don't like dreads on khajiits and these particular ones are even uglier then any I have seen before) and piercings. Geez, it's ugliest khajiit ever and right now we can be sure that there will be no next khajiit companion at least for years, because there are so many other races waiting for their turn...
And I can't even hide these ugly hairs we any hood, hat, helmet ot potato sack...PC | EU | DC |Stam Dk Breton6 -

✭✭✭✭✭The first one looks kind of like my breton warden, but that might just be the head band and scar (although that's not exactly the same).
So that might be a bit weird. (I also have a character called Ember, but she's a nord.) But other than that I wouldn't mind either of those characters as companions.
For me the important thing is that their appearence fits them as a person, or if it doesn't the mis-match fits their backstory (e.g. I once had an idea for a very pretty, kind looking necromancer who was an absolutely terrible person and used her looks to take advantage of people). I'm not in school any more so I'm a bit old for pretending to have a crush on a fictional character (also a bit too straight to have a crush on another woman) so I don't need them to be attractive. I don't think good fighters necessarily have to be unattractive either, it's two seperate things.
By far the most important thing is that they're interesting people with more than a handful of lines and not totally useless in combat.PC EU player | She/her/hers | PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!

✭✭✭✭She needs to be wearing a helmet or, failing that, a blood--soaked bandage and a few scars on her face.PC EU1 -
Kesstryl✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭She doesn't have to look like a super model, maybe just a little less sour and like a school marm that's ready to take a ruler to your poor knuckles. I'm not looking for a made up doll (I'm straight anyway so that's not what's bothering me) but at least someone who isn't likely to drive a dagger into the back of my chars when their backs are turned towards her. Something needs to be softened to make her look more friendly. She doesn't have to wear makeup or look like a princess, but she needs to look like someone my chars would be friends with.Edited by Kesstryl on January 30, 2022 1:57PMHEARTHLIGHT - A guild for housing enthusiasts!

MageCatF4F✭✭✭✭Isobel looks Ok (not great) but I agree that Ember looks kind of ugly even for a cat.
Here is my take on a good looking female cat of flexible morals right from the game
Edit: Hmm, clearly a matter of personal taste then. I believe this Khajiit is now firmly in the "Let us equip helmets on our companions" camp.
When this one buys BretonFest (for $14 ) the only part of Ember that this one wants seen is the tail.Edited by MageCatF4F on January 30, 2022 5:23PM2
