Yup, as G stated, that's entirely the point for Xeralia - 95% of the time, looks as cute as can be, the other 5% is when I suggest hiding. I needed a character design that would be nicely contrasted against the more 'statuesque' of the other Sterlings, and that's what I got. Though she'd probably take offense at not being considered as attractive as her siblings -- and it should be noted that, despite her long carreer in command, she keeps her combat certifications up-to-date, and is rated as a competant Quaedluu-Rau pilot.

>Aside from that, kudos.

Thanks!
