While her taste in mourning and business robes is irreproachable, Belladonna Smoke’s new line of travelling robes look more like the habit and wimple of a nun, than any modern wix. Reportedly quite comfy, and woven in with warming charms, they nonetheless leave one looking a paragon of religious virtue, where one may be trying more for imemorability.

‘Inheritance’

Part of the Black Lodge series. Thanks to Cally-Jo for modelling. ( @callyjoart on IG )

A painting of 16-year-old Andromeda Black with a Kappa she had recently defeated. While many purebloods look down on adventurers who seek to slay dangerous beasts, Andromeda was attacked swimming in Gaunt Lake, and saved herself through quick-thinking: she cunningly tricked the kappa into bowing to her so she could “face him as an equal before death,” as she said, causing the water to spill out of the cartilaginous bowl on the top of its head and rendering it mortal in time for her flesh-stripping curse. As the kappa is an extremely dangerous (class XXXX) beast, the Blacks’ had their daughter’s victory over the beast immortalized in a portrait.
