damn gurl

What does your character look like?


Because icons aren't always the most accurate, today's not!meme asks you to describe your character's physical appearance. Height, weight, eye and hair color, build, distinguishing marks, etc. And if they've had any physical changes since arriving in the City (i.e., new robo-arm, sporting a rad eyepatch, suddenly becoming a human) you can share that as well!  And if you use a PB, who are they, why did you pick them,etc.?

Xanatos looks kiiiiind of like Riker from Star Trek with a ponytail! The fact that his character design is completely coincidental to the fact that Jonathan Frakes is his voice actor only makes the Star Trek jokes that more ridiculous (and the fact that Frakes isn't even TRYING to change up his voice a bit while voicing Xanatos, great job dude, the Star Trek jokes write themselves.) He's average height & build and some sort of vaguely brown skin tone (canon says he's Greek, but the animation is all over the fucking place sometimes.) He does have longish brown hair, which he always wears in a ponytail that stops just below his shoulders. He has brown eyes (I think) and has a beard that looks like a mixture of Riker and Tony Stark.

Nothing really changed since he arrived at the city. Xanatos still places a lot of pride in his appearance cause hello there, you gotta look good while running a company. He probably still wears his one canon outfit of a dark blue suit & oxford.

Connors is a live-action Spider-Man villain so that means that since he's not Willem Defoe, he's going to wear glasses and be slightly disheveled. He kind of dresses like your dorky dad. His 'casual wear' (at least before going crazy) is a button-up oxford and slacks. Since Connors lives at the office, cheap oxfords & slacks are probably all that he wears. You can tell when he's having an off day because he actually wears something that isn't slightly formal (aka we only see him in nonwork clothes when he's going crazy).

A quick google search says that Rhys Ifans is 1.88 m which is 6 foot 2 inches! So good on you Connors, you're over six foot. I'm not even gonna pretend to try and figure out weights, but he looks good in a tank-top, so there's that. He's got greyish blue eyes and light blond hair and thank you google images, I'm now going to stare at pictures of Rhys Ifans and his beautiful beautiful eyes all day. You can also use his hair as a sign of if he's going crazy cause I swear he stops brushing it after he first becomes a lizard. I imagine that he also places a lot of pride in his appearance because a: he's got a bit of an inferiority complex and b: he does NOT want to look crazy.

One thing of note is that Connors has a small scaly patch of...well, scales on the back of his neck that we see during the ~mysterious credits scene~. It's not really noticeable until the camera zooms in on it but that's just a note of interest.

Khashoggi is a character from a musical and, as such, there is really no "set" look for him, unless dictated by the script. The only thing that's consistent about his look is that he a: always wears sunglasses (and gets called out on it in the script) and b: dresses in Fascist Chic. He's more intimidating than 'conventionally attractive'.

In the city, however, his dress sense is fuuuuucked. He sticks to wearing all-black outfits when he's not in uniform because how does I shot fashion. He likes leather a biiit too much and still always wears those goddamn sunglasses. He still has a long leather coat that gets brought out on special occasions/when he wants to look super intimidating (or...date auctions) but aside from that, dress sense what dress sense.

His current pb is David Anders simply because there are multiple scenes of him in Alias with sunglasses on. However, as much as I love David Anders, he has a HORRIBLE case of babyface and if I can find someone who has a lot of sunglasses scenes, still looks intimidating and looks a bit more middle aged then I am gonna change his pb in a heartbeat (why no this is not a transparant ploy for suggestions, why do you ask.)

Harry only has like two outfits in canon and both of them are uniforms goddammit Harry wear some casual clothes. Needless to say, he also joins my brigade of Only Wears Oxfords, but in Harry's case it's because he's stuffy and old-fashioned. When he finally joins up with the clinic, he'll just wear lab coats all the time, why do none of my guys have a goddamn fashion sense.

Anyway, Harry has lovely gray eyes. He has curly brown hair, but not as curly as the giant mass of brown curls that is Tom Baker. Harry also has muttonchops! The muttonchops are still staying in the City. I THINK he's shorter than Tom Baker who's like 6 foot 3. There's a massive companion height chart floating somewhere around Tumblr and I will edit this in when I finally find the goddamn thing.

EDIT: apparently he's 6 foot 2 inches, so not as short as I was expecting! But still shorter than Tom Baker, so I was right on that point.

also, I am not ashamed to admit that I spent an amount of time that is longer than necessary staring at Kat Denning's boobs in that gif. Yum.
