Modest Royalty: Difference between revisions

== Webcomics ==

** In the case of Ariel and Quain'tana, however, their clan is not as ancient as the other clans by a long shot, and Quain's reputation is as a fearsome [[Lady of War]]. In a society where anything can technically be considered armor, Quain's actual armor could be considered even MORE showy than the lavish dresses of the other clans. When you consider she's actively trying to subvert social norms, this makes sense.

* HRH Adharia Kuvoe in ''[[Last Res0rt]]'' dresses fairly simply and modestly, aside from some silky bedtime apparel. Of course, her modesty isn't all self-imposed; {{spoiler|she's trying to make a run for the throne, so it's likely she can't afford to carry around her full trappings all the time!}}

** Princess Bubblegum counts, too. Her costumes of choice consist of long, flowy, formal dresses and gowns. However, when she isn't on the job, she prefers more casual attire, like jeans, hoodies, shorter skirts, and T-shirts.

* Roselyn of ''[[Xyber 9: New Dawn]]'' tends to wear rather plain clothes, although [[Lady of War|Tatiania]] wears royal requisite regalia.

** Averted with his [[Complete Monster|father]] and [[Daddy's Little Villain|sister]], however. His sister is outright verbally abusive to her servants.

*** Still, in terms of clothing, the entire Fire Nation royal family counts as modest. Zuko and Azula both make their formal public appearances in Fire Nation military uniforms, the crown is much less ostentatious than real-world versions, and the Firelord's robes are relatively plain. Indeed, when Ozai has the chance to design his own uniform, he has a helm with a somewhat-exaggerated crest and a robe that's apparently designed to be removed easily in a fight. Heck, come to think of it, the Earth King's robes aren't all that fancy either, and the Water Chiefs are largely indistinguishable from their tribe. Only Bumi is shown with exaggeratedly large and fancy regalia, and that seems to be a sign of his eccentricity.
