Seyreene: history of a character

Seyreene has been in my mind for a very long time now. When I first created her back in september 2000, I was 13 years old and a big fan of animes and mangas such as Sailor Moon, Pokémon (Team Rocket, especially), but also Slayers, Wedding Peach, Fushigi no Umi no Nadia and many others. There weren't too much series available in Germany at that time... One series that especially fascinated me was Record of Lodoss War. I loved to read the Chronicles of the Heroic Knight manga! I think that was the time when my obsession for elf characters started. I liked Deedlit's design so much that I decided to create a younger version of her: my very own "elf princess".
This is the picture that started everything, a oekaki I painted on an oekaki BBS that I visited daily back then. (Yes, she was blonde just like Deedo...)

Welcome to Seyreene's Story

This is a new platform for everything around my story project which I'm calling Seyreene's Story for now, but maybe the title will change over time. This blog is about the development of the story and everything that has to do something with it. It will most likely become a collection of all my thoughts and ideas for this story.

I'm not a great writer, but rather like to express my story ideas in painted pictures and photographs. Because of this I decided to give the main character of Seyreene's Story (as well as a number of other characters) a face. But not only in painting her, but also as giving her shape as a ball-jointed doll (BJD).
