The Yaoi Guild needs you input!
Yes, you read that right. I formed a "Yaoi" guild. Meaning my guild's name is "Yaoi". Yes, I am insane. And yes, I do this because I can. And yes, you are always welcomed to join so long as you have the yaoi cred, i.e. you know what the heck yaoi is and like it as much as the next fangirl.

Now, I say that I need your help because in order for me to buy a guild hall (and I've already paid for the sigil, so one can consider the money already spent), I must first design a cape to represent my guild. So I need your ideas and input! Under the cut are some samples that I've fiddled around with. Please let me know which part of which cape you think would go well with what other part of what cape. In short, halp!

1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
10 11 12
13 14 15
16 17 18
19 20 21
22 23 24


I've tried to make the cape as "gay" as possible. So yes, haaaaalp.

P.S. Other than the cape border, every other part of the cape can have color changes (but only solid colors, so no polkadots or anything, woe).

Edit2:

To help you to help me decide, here are some links to the customizable parts of the cape: Cape Details; Cape Emblems; Cape Fringes. @_@

I think you missed a flower emblem...



All in all, I prefer pinkish flowery designs... The above and the next 2 are my preferred choices for emblem.




(very Utena-ish, this last one)

And some of my preferred backgrounds...






In general I think I prefer simplistic designs that's not too cluttered. Remember, this is something you're going to be staring at all the time, unless you want to shell out 2k every once in a while to change things around.

Yes, I do realize that I will be staring at this design a lot, but please keep in mind that my assassin wears green. Just saying. (Also, I do believe your ranger has a lot of tan too.)

As for the "flower", all I can say is that it looks like a sea shell inside a star burst. (Sorry, I just dislike that shape.)

Between the other two emblems, I'm leaning towards the daisy-thing rather than Utena. (I mean, we're yaoi, not yuri - not that there's anything wrong with that.)

I find the backgrounds you picked kind of clash horribly with the emblems, so either we need to find new backgrounds or new emblems... (Maybe it's just the colors.)

To add... #23 looks nice too.

Also, you want to consider how it goes with the majority of our characters as well as the guild hall (though you still have 2 halls to choose from to see how it goes with the cape, I guess)

My personal favorites are 6 (personal attachment to rodents), 9 (can we say tentacle rape?), 18 (although I'm considering white on pink too), 23, and 24.

23 and 24 are the most Asian looking, which will probably end up as my final choices. 23 is slightly more girly while 24 is more epic. In other words 23 is geared towards Shing Jea while 24 is towards Imperial. :p

(As for the halls themselves, I've been reading up and Shing Jea apparently has a turtle crawling in it. It's as good as the glowy thing of doom! Will run through the areas some more to decide.)

And finally, our characters all have different color schemes, so for the cape to be color neutral, it'll have to stick to whites, greys, and blacks in order not to clash with armor art. Just something to think about.

9 seems to be more biased toward a Luxon-ish theme (at least from the POV of the rest of the game). Reminds me of the Irujkandi (I know I spelled that wrong).

18... is a nice design. Could use some more investigation of the color combo, agreed.

24 - I can't tell what it's supposed to be... -_-

23 at least gives the impression of a flowery tree branch(/ginseng hybrid). :P

Meh, not like you aren't farming Luxon faction anyway. :p (Personally, I find it to be the better looking out of all the animal designs.)

18 - Requires more color fiddling, may consider even blue?

24 - You do not look at enough Asian art. It's a wave, obviously.

23 - It's a sakura tree with falling petals... =.=

You really need to look at more Asian art.

#15 looks like a wave. #24 looks more like a peacock tail to me. ^^;

23 - same diff. :P

*coughyouhaveanassassincough*

Really? But it's really not that bad. Just go 2ndary assassin, pump up your dagger mastery to 12, slap on the knuckles and 1-2-3-4-5-6-7. Like every other assassin. ^^;
