Being a princess is frightening and stressful. Wonyen never got to be a wriggler, instead having to sober up and be proper from an extremely young age. Living a life as a minor celebrity, she was surveilled and scrutinized everywhere she went, and she was never offered the slightest bit of grace for their mistakes.

Then, at only 4 sweeps old, they survived an assassination attempt that broke both of their legs, and something finally cracked. Or, rather, something split. The immense strain had fractured her personality, creating an alter named Tucker.

While their body healed, they were still forced to maintain a perfect outward appearance, and their retainer's grip became more and more forceful and violent. Finally, the alter Yennua was created, and they immediately took charge, packing their favorite things and running away.

They make their home in an old abandoned tower next to a tiny island off the mainland. Their neighbor, Opacha, is also their deeply-treasured moirail, and they always wear a bucket hat she made for them. By now, their appearance has changed so much that they would be difficult to recognize from their previous life, and they feel all the better for it.

Part 1/2 of a project comparing my characters’ first designs (at least, the first designs posted on this blog) to their current ones. These designs are all 3 years removed from their conception.
