Description Had so much fun with this!! Was gonna do two more outfits but unfortunately some irl stuff came up. If I'm able to finish them I'll be adding them on, hehe. Again, deviantART kills quality so please download to see!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gold is very particular about his fashion choices. He's a fan of boots, high collars, and aggressive colours.

Usual - He pretty much always wears these clothes, but occasionally switches up the jacket for ones he has stolen. Underneath he just wears a simple black tank top.

Night Out - Heh, play on words here. If he were to go to a club he'd still wear his usual outfit... but when he's out and needs to interact with other criminals he tends to wear this. This was also very similar to his go-to outfit when he was still involved in organised crime. Though he rarely uses it, he carries a switchblade with him at all times - larger knives don't suit him.

Western Formal - What he might wear to a prom or formal party! He cleans up rather nicely, I think

Winter Wear - Another outfit he rarely wears as his setting is temperate to tropical, but when he gets the chance he loves to wear fur. Since he's a cat so often, sometimes he can miss aspects of that form, and the fur around the neck especially comforts him.

Accessories - The only accessory he wears is his earring, which he pretty much never takes out. If he does swap it for another one, it will ALWAYS be a stud. He never wears ring, hoop or any variant of dangling earring. He's learnt his lesson :3c

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next mini-playlist! Since this is a task based on appearance, I thought it would be appropriate to scrounge up some songs for how people might think of him at first glance. As such, how well the songs actually fit him wildly varies

What a dude! Love that the color scheme is all warm and fuzzy, and I really love his night out outfit as well, got a sort of 'hiding in the shadows ninja' type of vibe which I can totally dig.

Gold's got a great style and colour scheme! He wears red well! I think his Western Formal outfit would have to be my fave here, he'd be eye-catching at a formal event in those bold colours! I also love his Winter wear outfit too btw! Nice job on these!

Gold has got style - love the reoccurring black and red theme. ^^ Not only does it match his hair, it gives him a particular sense of flair, and showcases personality at first sight. ^^ He looks both sophisticated as well as rebellious.

Thank you! I wanted him to have aggressive colours. I’m surprised he looks sophisticated though, besides in the suit of course!

The violent red looks good on him for sure! He looks most sophisticated in his western suit, but I gotta admit that his form-fitting clothes and well-matched reoccurring color palette seem more than just a little stylish to me! ^^

Love the Ninja... I mean Night Out outfit


The Western Formal is a good look for him.  He looks a lot more grown-up and cultured in a suit

And he certainly loves that shade of reddy-brown


I'm not sure if you've mentioned it and I missed it but how bad is his eyesight without his glasses? 

Has he ever considered contact lenses?

A couple of people have called that a “ninja” outfit now and I’m really wondering why? I’ve yet to see a ninja wear a hoodie and trainers. Do you just have to cover your face to be a ninja now? XP

Thank you! Yeah it’s his signature colour.

Naturally his eyesight’s pretty bad, he’s never considered lenses though. Technically he doesn’t need any aid, he could just shift healthy eyes or falcon eyes, which are way better than human ones anyway. But he’s used to the glasses, they’re part of his identity, and he feels weird without them. I mean he’s had the same frames since he was a kid. They also act as a kind of barrier between him and others because they cover a good portion of his face.

I think it has to do with the western image of a ninja; a shadowy figure clothed in loose black clothing with black hood and facemask with soft shoes for noiseless movement.  (Orange Jumpsuits weren't a thing until recently )

So a black hoodie and trainers aren't really a stretch lol (though probably not as bright as Gold's).


Ninjas were originally Japanese peasants who ran away from their Samurai masters.  They used stealth and assassination techniques because they couldn't match the training and fighting skills of the Samurai, and the well-known ninja weapons were actually mostly modified farm tools.


It's in every outfit and his cat form, I sort of guessed LOL


I like that idea, it also plays into what we mentioned earlier about his vanity about his original looks.  As a shapeshifter, I would imagine a strong sense of personal identity would be very important so you don't lose yourself in all your guises and forms.  That's an interesting angle I hadn't ever really considered before.


Does he feel the need for that kind of barrier because he is a shifter or because of his personality, I wonder?

I love the character continuity in all of these outfits! His color scheme is quite eye catching Is he your story's protagonist?

TigerDragon1001 In reply to All-is-Nonsense [2019-11-23 17:04:58 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I was worried if that was a bad thing ahah. He is the protagonist, far from a hero though I think he’s closer to anti-hero.

Clothing continuity in character design is excellent for visual storytelling! Avatar the Last Airbender is one of the best examples of this. Oh, he's an anti-hero, huh? That sounds like fun. What is it about him that makes you think he's more of an anti-hero than a hero?

TigerDragon1001 In reply to All-is-Nonsense [2019-11-24 13:12:27 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I do like a good balance between realism and simplification for sake of storytelling though! As for why's he an anti-hero? Uh.. he has zero "heroic" traits and isn't a good person XD I wouldn't call him bad either but he's a little twisted to say the least. I did a vignette following his thoughts if you wanna understand what I mean a bit more:

All-is-Nonsense In reply to TigerDragon1001 [2020-01-25 20:57:54 +0000 UTC]

Honestly, I like characters that are a little twisted. The are more relatable 'cause, well, humans are twisted.
