Okay here's the deal. We all agree 13 is an unlucky number, since that's the number the black cat said when it crossed our path, and the number of shards of broken mirror that ended up on the ground.

What we can't seem to agree on is the amount of bad luck this entails.

Does it just mean instead of getting ninety-five thousand economic units for a job well done this year, we shall only receive ninety-four thousand, nine hundred and ninety nine economic units?

Or perhaps we'll receive the exact same number of units, but they'll inflate away its value by a tenth of a percent?

Or is this the sort of bad luck that is truly devastating, like when you have to explain to a girl how she's wrong?

The characters you find here and on other sites of mine are as follows:

Annya Leona, Eastern European Girl -- She has very long legs and very large breasts. Annya-Leona is one of my earliest characters, reworked for 2025. Brand new rig, modified mesh, new vertex colours, and a fun new environment with a clock that has some extra functionality.

Endeara Devika, Indian Girl -- She has a similar body style to Monette, but very definitely Indian. Nice jewelry. She is more shy than the other characters, but can be fiery at times.

Giazelle Veloca, Thin Tigresse -- Thin and athletic, and loves to dress up like a Tigresse, stripes and tail and everything! Look for it in her collections and rig. She doesn't drink martinis, but likes people who do.

Joliette Fleurs, Thin Bride -- Ballerina thin and athletic, the tallest of the girls. Joliette was created based off a 3/4 view AI image. Since I only had that one reference image, I had to take a lot of artistic and creative license. She's a bridal girl, with a nice bridal gown and veil.

Lilithe Classica, Taiwanese Maiko -- She is the younger sister of Tailey. Very skinny and has a great Maiko (junior Geisha) bodypaint and outfit including okobo and kimono. Yes, she is Taiwanese, but is dressing up in Japanese outfits and in a Japanese setting.

Monette Taida, Surfer Girl -- She has a surfboard. And she is a blonde. A bit bigger and more muscular than the others, and with larger breasts. She has an earlier rig that needs to be updated for 2025, but is still quite functional and she can teach you a lot.

Princess Verachantesse, Singer Girl -- I usually experiment with new techniques/styles on her first, then onto the other girls as time permits. But not always! Wide hips, thick thighs, bouncy breasts. Oh, and the most massive, giant, glittering eyes you'll ever see. Some think she's a wood sprite. I think she's just a regular woman.

Sentiena Tacta, Acrobat Girl -- She's the thinnest and most flexible of my characters, a circus performer and acrobat. She's fairly light-skinned, and her outfit is extremely close-fitting. She loves to fly up high at times, but then be held down at others. She's a contradiction within herself.

Tailey Fang, Asian Girl -- She seems to be most popular with most people, she is a taller- and larger-than-average Asian lady. She is covered in crosses and wearing a beautiful antique outfit with jewels and laces and ringlets. She is meant to be a vampire, around 80 years old.

Zandeya Stormer, Very American Girl -- Glasses and braces. Athletic. Nerdier than her peers, but spunky nevertheless! She is fairly patriotic about her USA upbringing.
