Oleksi Design Question 🤔

Please weigh in if you can! I just can’t decide on his tiefling form… maroon or powdery teal?

Megan Thomas

Teal !!

Lise

Teal, definitely.

CC

the teal is quite unique but i do prefer the maroon

Nanny_Snakeeyes

I rather like the teal

Joelle trousdale

Huh. I prefer teal

Sarah Roberts

Maroon. It makes the freckles stand out more.

April

He would only be in this form a when he is casting spells so the color palette of the clothing is more attuned to his elf form than this one so I probably won’t be changing the coat to maroon, good point 😊

Whiteley Foster

As much as I love the color teal, I think I prefer the Maroon skin

Rhelana1 .

Personally I love the teal! It’s super unique. But I think maybe darker clothes… 🤔😍😍

Chloe

The teal background with teal clothing with teal tiefling is just too much teal. Either maroon skin with teal clothing, or teal skin with maroon clothing, so that there's that pop of contrast, for me. So I guess it depends which you're more decided about. If you really want the teal clothing, he should definitely be maroon.

Maroon

Maroon!!

Stacey Hopwood

I love teal, but I prefer the maroon skin with teal hair.

Debbie Champion

TEAL ✨✨✨✨✨✨

Ineffable Penguin

I like the teal the most

Genesis Calderon Borgos

Teal!!!!! 😍

Mia Nguyen

teal! it's so unique 🥰

Planetary System

Definitely maroon for me, but that's how I see Tieflings, with skin color ranging from common human shades into the red shades. Blue just doesn't suit a Tielfling to me. I could see a different race having blue skin.

AJ Constantine

Teal is beautiful!

BloodRaven

Teal!!!!

Chibiq

I like teal!

Annie

Teal for sure! Tiefling Teal!

Tiffany

Maroon but I like both.

Julian

I like the maroon the best bc of how it contrasts with the outfit

Avalon

I really, really like the teal!

Ash S.

I think there needs to be more vitiligo love! It's so pretty, and I think those colors would look beautiful together!

Zavier Burst

Oh teal all the way baby! 😁👍

Kaiannanthi

Teal!

Ilsy

Teal!!!

Morgan Woody

I really love the teal. The maroon makes me think of an Infernal. Which isn't bad, not at all, but I like the distinction the teal makes.

Cyn (amadness2method)

Maroon personally! Or, if you go with teal, may I suggest trying a maroon colored jacket? I just think all the details in the jacket are lost if he’s all powdery teal, know what I mean?

litlgreenleaf

I like the maroon

LupinsandLaurels

I like the teal

Shez

Teal!

brockwoman

I honestly like both but think the teal is too much blue with his outfit. Also I just noticed the roses on the tips of his bow and adore them.

Gabriella Clegg

Haha I love that!

Whiteley Foster

Sonnet is married to a non-binary tall and skinny (somewhat slutty) elf named Kokobiel (Koko for short!.) Koko runs a brothel in Waterdeep named "Koko's Back Door."

Merideth Ivy

Love the maroon, it makes his freckles look so much bolder, but I absolutely second Zavier’s suggestion of vitiligo, that would look stunning!!

Sarah H

I like him teal. 😊

Jem

Teal!

Mimsynims

I’d say maroon

Darius Crawford

Does Sonnet have a Mansa?

Whiteley Foster

Maroon!

Sarah Wilson

The maroon is more "traditional tiefling" to me, but the teal is just super pretty, especially with the freckles. Kind of a stars-at-dawn/dusk vibe

SoylentRamen

Oh zavier I love that idea!

Whiteley Foster

Could you do something like vitiligo? I think those colors would be really pretty together.

Zavier Burst

It is hard to choose between, but I do like the freckles with the maroon a tad more, so I guess that makes me lean a bit more towards maroon.

Tiffo

Maroon with loads of blue in the hair and clothes is stunning

JillianVolts

I like the way his hair and freckles glow with the maroon skin. Theoretically I love teal and blue shades a lot more, but here, with the gold freckles, the darker colour of the maroon really makes them stand out. Alternatively, you could make the teal a darker, bluer shade, which would also make his golden freckles stand out - like stars on a midnight sky. :)

Bobla Blubb

Maroooon

Michelle Garcia

Powdery teal with maroon freckles?

Lemaris Designs

I like the teal

Jennifer Elaine

Definitely Maroon! makes his freckles and eyes stand out more ☺️

Cathlo Morton

I prefer the teal. Somehow it makes him look determined and brave and the maroon make him look harsh and mean. Perhaps something about the way the details of his face stands out diffrently depending on the colour around them?

Susanne mizz_uzie Olsson

I like the maroon, but I'm unsure if that's because it's more readable on the blue background or if I truly like the maroon.

Neil K.

I like the teal more, it clashes more with his masquerade. Though with the teal he kind of vanishes inside his jacket. 😅

Yuu

I like the maroon.

Atelerix

For me I like the maroon skin only because it’s easier to read from a character design standpoint with his teal clothes. And I like the way the freckles stand out more. However, if you were to change his clothes to contrast the teal skin more, then that’s definitely an option too.

Lauren

Definitely Maroon

Exactlyscreechingmilkshake

I quite like both, but something about the teal is calling to me

Midnight-Radio

Oh!!! This is very helpful! Thank you!

Whiteley Foster

I really like the teal with the maroon hair

YamiKakyuu

The teal for the treifling is definitely rare and not seen very often. I think it looks very interesting and you could make the color he is have a huge impact on his backstory. 😁 Here’s some reference material if you need it. ⬇️ Blue skin: In 2e, The Planewalker's Handbook, p. 80, blue skin is an option. In 3e, Races of Faerun, pp. 125-126, blue skin is attributed to having night hag heritage. In 5e, Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide, p. 118 mentions this in the Tiefling Variants sidebar ("red or dark blue skin").

Kiylie Denesen

I personally love the teal but the maroon def makes everything POP a but more sharp if thats something you're looking for

avery (ineffable critter)

Oooh, tough decision. I'm digging the maroon more. The gold accents pop so much more and the contrast with his outfit is gorgeous

J

i think maroon goes best with his eyes & freckles !

roan keith

The teal is so cute but his outfit washes him out, he pops more in maroon.

Janine

the contrast between his eyecolour/freckles/costume and skin looks starker with maroon skin, so I like this version more, even though both versions definitely are gorgeous ❤️ so my voice is for MAROON 👀❤️

sick_pineapple

The inner glow seems to stand out more on the Maroon, but teal does provide good contrasts with the clothing. I can see why it's hard to choose.

DarlingRose

AW!! Sonnet and Song! Love it! You have to send me a picture 😊

Whiteley Foster

Teal!

riekoe

Maroon!

Rebecca Berger

I think the teal is quite cute!

M03M03

Maroon makes the outfit pop more, and the freckles are more visible!

Katie Addley

I do like the freckles against the teal but I think I prefer maroon.

Kaitlin Maynard

Maroon! (My dnd tiefling character, Sonnet, is partially based on Song :)

Merideth Ivy

With that outfit color I like the maroon but! I think it would be cool if you changed the outfit color to maroon, if you kept the blue skin

Allyson Becker

I’m digging the maroon.

SH

I would say teal.

scatteroflight

Maroon, the freckles and piercings contrast better with the maroon, I think

Blackbird 5

Teal!

_Ms_Mayflower

Teal!

DC

The golden speckles stand out more against the maroon skin

Ross

I think maroon helps his outfit and details shine more
