Description
She comes from a neighboring star system, lives in a tower as high as the tower of Babel, and is the empress of the most vain glorious people. She is in the pinnacle of vain and of course her name is inspired by that - Veyn Gloria is the name of an exalted alien woman, whose appearance is nothing but exaggerated.

Veyn Gloria - or Veyn as she is usually called - is a part of a novel called 'The Diary of a Space Traveller', which I'm writing. Amanda, whom I've showed you before, is the protagonist, and Veyn is sort of her sidekick that she meets early in the tale.
Veyn was design to kind of "mock" the stereotype of an alien. She is green, has wierd ears, and of course and extra set of arms. However, most of her "dazzling" appearance is artifical, but necessary in a culture, where a superior outer appearance equals social status.
The little planet that Veyn comes from is very old, and so is she and her people. Their exact ages are unknown, but they are known to be quite old. Even though the planet are quite fertile with lots of resources, it is dying - a black hole nearby is slowly pulling the planet towards it, which will be the end of Veyn and her people. Ironically, they continue their vain and superflous practices, as if nothing is happening.
Their culture is a product of their old age; having lived for so long, they've giving up finding a deeper meaning with life, and instead made appearance the goal of their existence.
Veyn is quite cold, cynical, and has a massive knowledge - especially about the earth. She is emotionally disengaged, and have a very logical and rational mindset as a result of that. She also seems to be very arrogant - she is in other words a perfect empress of a vain glorious people.

That's where Amanda comes into the story. But I'll save that for another time

I wanted Veyn to look a bit unnatural - hence the more manga-like style with the big, doll-like eyes. Don't get fooled by her appearance though - she's quite deadly.

I'm writing the story in my native language danish, but if I ever finish it, I might consider translating it to english. I'm not writing it in english on the first hand, since my grammar is not exactly flawless. And I also write much better in danish.

I've been quite inactive the last month, but I want to show you that I'm working on a couple of projects. Here are two sneak peeks:
Pekia
Vella

Vella is another character from the same universe, which you can look forward to hearing much more about in one of my coming posts.
