-|align=left|<br>There are certain crowds that Marlena would blend into. These crowds tend to be out late at night, in clubs with names like "The Underground" or "The Crypt" or the like. Sunny streets of New Mexico? She sticks out like the proverbial sore thumb. Or gangrenous, considering the amount of black she has on. <br>Really she'd be easy to miss otherwise. She's of a bit shorter than average height, and a bit rounder than ideal form. Her skin is pale certainly, but not chalk-white. She takes care not to expose herself to the sun too much, but doesn't cake on the paint. Her hair is black with carefully placed streaks of red, bangs coming to a point in the front and great coiling curls down her back and shoulders. Her eyes, trimmed as they are with black liner and carefully plucked brows are an unremarkable but not unnatractive shade of deep brown, and her red-stained lips more often than not have a small distracted smile. Her expression lends itself to a certain quiet dreaminess, a watchfulness and a hint of curiousity.<br>Today she wears a satin skirt ruched up in the front with red ribbons over layers of torn and lacy stockings, low-heeled button-sided boots and a black men's frock coat over a black chinese silk corset with red and blue dragons. A well-worn black messenger bag trimmed in red rosettes no doubt carries school books and sketch books, and when the sun is out overhead she hefts a black and red lace trimmed parasol.
+|align=left|<br>A young goth girl, Marlena stands at 5'2" when she's wearing flats, which isn't terribly often. Though short, she isn't particularly tiny, rather more on the curvaceious side though not unhealthily so. What her natural hair may be is now lost to the sands of time: generally these days it's a shade of black so dark it's almost blue and generally streaked with other unnatural colors. Sometimes she wears it short, sometimes long, sometimes curly, sometimes straight. Her skin is pale, as is de rigeur in the goth set, but not deathly so. She keeps out of the sun, but she doesn't pile on the pale foundation. Her eyes are a rich, deep brown that is not unusual or striking but certainly attractive enough (at least on those days she doesn't wear fantastical colored contact lenses). They are wide, and set over a roundish, heart-shaped face that even with the full range of goth makeup manages 'sweet' more often than 'threatening'. <br>On days when she dresses up, her lips are painted deep, blood red more often than not, and dark smokey kohl outlines her eyes. Otherwise, she keeps her makeup to a minimum, though unless something keeps her from cosmetics for several days there's usually a remnant of red stain and darkened lashes. More often than not she goes out in full regalia, silks and satins in rich jewel tones or bright primaries on deepest black. Even when she dresses casually she tends towards the darker shades. <br>Marlena has a way of moving and reacting that make her seem somehow just always slightly outside of things, like she's a stranger looking in on a world she has to work to understand and cannot fathom being a part of. Still, she doesn't seem unhappy with the world or herself, sometimes quietly amused, sometimes lonely perhaps, but not unhappy.
