A delightful story. Love your character. Green hair I suppose would be devastating to a vain drow if she couldn't dye it out haha. Very funny. I also like the small mentions of the surroundings which lend of air of knowledge of Undedark amosphere.
Just a notion since you mentioned a mirror (not a critique just a random thought)
Salvatore always mentioned mirrors with reverence for drow. He would always say they were as rare as wood and expensive on a kings randsome level. I always disagreed with that notion. I would think that mirrors would be common. Why? well polished metal is a mirror, and polished metal is a common as dirt in the undedark.
I suppose he always meant a mirror made from reflective glass though.

Thank you. I appreciate the comments.
No for some reason dye won't stick to her hair any longer. I suppose it's due to the chemicals that reacted to create the color.
I always thought the same thing about the mirrors. The one I have Zin using is a very crude form, reason I made sure to mention that it was just beaten and polished metal. Which is what was used centuries ago, before the development of glass ones.
I always thought a real glass mirror would be as rare as a water clock would, surface or Underdark regardless.

Not a bit. I'd be honored to have someone make Zin. If you have any questions about her or anything just send me a note. I'm glad you liked her and the story.

Another one down! Woot for me! And another interesting story from you ... so a woot for you too ^_^
It was just a nice little cute (dont take it the wrong way) add on to the other stories you have done with Zin. Plus now she has wild and exotic hair which is just plain cool.
I'm also loving the personality quirks she's coming out with. I look forward to seeng what happens with the outcast ^_^

I wrote "Green" expressly for the #9 contest on . When I started to think of stories I could write featuring a drow and describing some kind of miscalculation, I knew I had to right about Zin. I wanted Zin to be odd once I finally saw where her story was headed, so dark green hair on a drow, I think could possible be called odd. And yes the hair is green forever. I'm glad you enjoyed this story, I think Zin is fast becoming one of my favorite characters.

I'm glad she catches other people too. I hope I can draw other people into her story too.
