**Floral Sacrifice** is an S-Tier Costume for the Soul Weaver, Violetta. It was introduced to the Event Store on February 11th, 2021.

## Appearance

### **Physical**

Violetta takes on a more human appearance, and looks like a woman in a deep sleep. The woman has curly dark brown hair, pale skin, and the mark of a spider can be seen on her neck. Dark twisting branches curl out from where the woman's legs should be and become Violetta's spider-like legs instead, while arms made of the same dark wooden texture sprout from the woman's back and which Violetta uses to grab survivors. The branches curl around the remainder of the body as well, and some golden mushrooms sprout from them.

### **Outfit**

In this costume she wears a white lacy dress that covers her entire body, most notably the white ballgown skirt of the dress which covers the entirety of Violetta's "Abdomen" where her legs protrude from. The dress has a white floral pattern with stiffer white bands to help give shape to the ballgown, most notably around the waist similar to a corset and along the skirt, while golden ribbons start from underneath the bust and drape all the way to the frilly hem. It is a low cut dress, showing off the shoulders and neckline, with separated puffy sleeves, and large transparent wing-like pieces with flowery lace sewn to the waist of the dress.

Large pink roses adorn her hair as well as the shoulders of the front branch arms.

### **Special Effects**

Small white butterflies trailing white sparkles flutter around her legs.

## Concept / Design Notes

### **Background Story**

There will never be a wedding or a funeral, but she still believes everything will soon return to normal so long as she's breathing. After all, even the ailing tree blossoms.

### **Design Idea Plans**

Because of the relationship between the Spring Festival version and solar terms, We hope to have a romantic and lively costume in spring, so we thought of using flowers as the main element of this costume.

Combining the style of the game and the tragic nature of the Soul Weaver, we began to associate with her strange body shape and created a relatively bleak and tragic story for her.

We naturally associate her profiled body with the wedding dress. At the wedding, the bride was buried alive, but she was persevering and obsessed. She maintained her vitality by the energy of the broken branches and the broken leaves in the cold soil. The earth also absorbed the nutrients in her body and re-grown flowers. All of them received "newborn life".

We want her to not only fit the tonality of our game and her own character experience but also be beautiful, refreshing Violetta's inherent image in the hearts of players.

### **Design Idea Sketch**

The background story of the "Floral Sacrifice" is bleak and sad, so the fashion style is also poignant.

Focusing on the theme of "the newlywed girl was buried alive in the soil, merged with natural energy and got to survive", we designed three versions of sketches with the image of a woman lying on a flower bed and dead branches.

The first sketch with the most poignant feeling was selected, and some simplifications were made to the overly complex structure and the exquisiteness of the wedding dress was improved. After such repeated revisions, "Floral Sacrifice" is completed.

## Trivia
