This is Hiriss in symbiosis with Elscorsef. As usual with Hiriss, this is only one of several looks for her. Her dress, hair and makeup tends to vary. And much like with Elsie, I wanted my first design for Hiriss as a Herald to straddle the line between cute and creepy (i.e., here’s a cute, Mirialan Jedi fashionista who undergoes grotesque mutations on a whim). Giving her fangs and extra eyes (if you’re wondering where they are, they are slightly obscured by the forehead curls; I’ve got another sketch of her with the eyes more exposed) was also a way to add a few blemishes while she’s in symbiosis (and they seem to go along well with the spider legs).

Of course, her relationship with Elsie means that Elsie isn’t inside Hiriss all the time. Aside from combat situations or circumventing obstacles, Hiriss sometimes lets Elsie inhabit her to satisfy her inherent Force cravings.
