**Design Notes**

*This fashion takes the Victorian judge's dress and adapts it to women's dresses. It combines the Leviathan symbol of jealousy, the corresponding code for blind women, with the Leviathan symbol. The goddess of justice on the cane is also a fish-tailed female sea monster, also a symbol of Leviathan.*

*We designed three versions of the sketches based on this setting, combining the strengths of both options 2 and 3, which were more in line with the setting, as well as the details of the costumes, and finally received the Clerk's final draft.*

	+ It is contrasting to Scorpion from the related essence storyline, who represents the virtue of Kindness.
* The patch notes when Season 13 Essence 2 was added incorrectly calls this costume **Registrar**.
