DrylnaQui_Vas_Carn

Drylna'Qui vast Carnis is a quarian and a monster. The former is obvious, the latter less so until she chooses to reveal it.

From head to foot, Drylna is several inches shy of five feet; her suit adds maybe an inch or two at best. Her figure is athletically voluptuous, ample of chest and broad of hip. No actual part of her body is visible on account of her suit, but it fits so snugly to her that imagination handily fills in the details where it is not obviously augmented.

The quarian's suit is a complex yet elegant piece of equipment. It is difficult to judge where the suit and artifice begins.

Drylna's head is covered by a hood of rich blue that obscures most of her head and hides the harder elements of the suit that protect it. A matte purple plate covers her face from forehead to about her lips, armor plating and one-way transparency hiding her features completely. The sides of her head, her jaw and neck are covered by closely fitted metal with matte gray coloring. When Drylna speaks, a dim bluish light in the bottom-middle of her mask flashes.

In many respects, Drylna'Qui's suit is like those worn by other quarians, but even compared to them it is vastly more specialized. The suit is meant to be light and easily wearable so its wearer can live life normally - at least as normally as one whom must live out most of her existence sealed off from the world around her - but it is also meant to be tough enough to withstand the rigors of an exciting life outside of the Migrant Fleet. Drylna's suit takes this a step or three further: composed of layers of woven myomer sandwiched between thin layers of flexible, durable plastic it is as much a load-bearing mechanism as it is environmental armor. Segmented plates of ballistic plastic add extra protection without hindering movement. Recessed attachment points dot the suit, similar to harnesses common to militaries across known space.

The arms and legs of the quarian - whether the result of accident or intent - are artificial but unobtrusively so. At rest, their ballistic coverings blend the limbs in with the rest of the suit, contributing to Drylna's armored look. Only the fact Drylna's legs seem abnormally sturdy for a girl her size suggest anything unusual. Like all quarians, she has two fingers and a thumb, and three-digit feet.

The quarian woman has nice, wide hips about her - a round bubble whose shape is not diminished by her armoring. Above it sprouts a thick, alligator-like tail that appears to be entirely artificial - another false appendage like her arms, but obviously more so since quarians normally don't have a tail. A single belt hangs off her hips, supporting a set of pouches and whatever other equipment she deems necessary to carry.
