This is Flairé, and his usually near-invisible (when collapsed) collapsible helmet that became so popular during the second half of the war.
…I totally just made that up, but it’s canon now.
I actually like this design. I will try and keep it if I ever draw it again. And I didn’t make up the part about him wearing the helmet, because I’ve known he wears it all the time – heck, I don’t think he takes it off – but I just made up the part about it being in use during the second half of the war. I didn’t even know the war had halves.
Flairé: It didn’t.
He’s right, now that I recall the very spare outline he’s given me so far… Although he could have given it to me wrong. He does that on occasion. Anyway, I think Flaer and Zela have helmets like these as well, and Flaria, though she never wears hers, but Flairé is the one I’m always being, so I know his gear the best.
I should make his black velvet cloak with the rainbow-ed scarlet embroidered phoenix on it someday.
