Reference sheet - Lycoris (gijinka)
Aaand here's the wife! I posted Hanabi last week, so I already planned to finish the reference details I had for his wife, Lycoris, after that! These two are complete lovebirds and don't exist as separated beings at all haha
I've used lots of photo references for her clothes and the like, but I'm still very satisfied with how she looks! I don't think I've seen an oriental-themed Sylveon gijinka before, and since they have history as being from Ecruteak City, I thought it was a nice idea to go for it ´v` Here comes her profile!
Name: Lycoris
Species: Sylveon
Nature: Naive
Characteristic: Likes to thrash about
Ability: Cute Charm
- The loving matriach to her numerous family, Lycoris works together with her husband Hanabi to keep a neverending light and welcoming atmosphere on their household. She considers herself a completely fullfilled and happy woman thanks to the amount of love she gives and receives from her whole family and spouse
- Formerly the head kimono girl on Ecruteak City's Dance Theater, she used to lecture young priests and priestess in the art of rituals for Ho-oh. She retired after falling in love with the head priest who was her apprentice, in order to be able of marrying him
- Lycoris's very benevolent and often wants to do what's right, but she's too soft and delicate. She needs her husband to set boundaries to things she can't, since she has absolutely zero firmness in the way she talks when showing disapproval for something
- Her favorite things are the ones that remember her of her family, such as fireworks, snow, lavender flowers and the full moon
- Due to her training as a geisha, she's very talented on several activities, such as playing instruments, dancing and entertaining. Lycoris is amazingly smart and can talk about anything you can think of!
Other details:
- Very sweet, crying is the first reaction she has when feeling happy, sad or touched. Sometimes she'll cry for seemingly no reason at all (for example, for remembering something nice she heard, or a memory of something good that made her happy)
- Lycoris has an appreciation for chiming sounds. Their house has at least one wind chime or bell on every room's window
- She doesn't like fighting at all. Instead, Lycoris tends to supporting her husband, which is also the reason why they always battle together. Her damaging moves serve as self-defense methods only
- Gijinka: curiously, she has some range of psychic powers, and uses them to control her ribbon's appendages as if they were feelers. They become strong enough to hold or wrap objects and people when under her control
- It doesn't look like it, but she's actually 62 years old!

Aaaw, I'm glad she does resemble the very image of a caring mother herself, because that's exactly what she is! haha
Her clothes are what I'm most proud of, making a Sylveon-looking geisha kimono because expert geishas' kimonos are very sober in contrast to the apprentice geishas (maiko) colorful and heavily patterned kimonos.
I thank you for all the interest on her and her family, because it would be pointless to show them to the world instead of keeping the characters to myself, if they don't get enough and deserved attention, not only the characters but also my efforts on bringing them into life. So thanks to you, for being one of these people that look at them and appreciate them!
