Heroes,

Thank you to everyone who joined the Fashion Chronicle.

We saw rare fashion sets, old memories, favorite mounts, loyal pets, beautiful corners of Dal Riata, and a few outfit choices that made us pause for a moment.

The team reviewed the entries, and these are the four judged category winners. Community Favorite will be announced separately after voting closes.

Best Overall Look

Stricken by Light
Character: Kajal
Server: Morrigan

This Sunbound fashion set holds special meaning for me because it was the first complete set I ever collected, and it features my favourite colour. I chose to capture this image in the Otherworld because the darkness in this area is beautifully illuminated by lightning strikes as well as my set’s glowing light. Amidst the darkness of the otherworld, the details and brilliance of the ensemble stand out most clearly, making it the place where I most admire this fashion set.

The outfit, mount, lighting, and screenshot composition all came together beautifully. This entry felt like a real Celtic Heroes moment.

Best Story Behind the Look

Master of Relics
Character: Vizylo
Server: Arawn

At the entrance to the Bridge of Despair, I find myself surrounded by pieces of a world that has quietly grown alongside me for more than a decade. The Guildmaster set, the White Coven, and a staff from one of the earliest Yule seasons aren't just rare items - they're reminders of countless late nights, old friends, exciting updates, and a time when the tower expansion made the game feel bigger than ever before. As I look at them now, it's hard not to think about how much has changed since those days; from a kid exploring these lands for the first time to the person I've become today, these relics have somehow endured through it all. The players, the adventures, and even parts of myself have come and gone with time, yet standing here brings it all rushing back, a reminder that while we can never truly return to those moments, we're lucky to have lived them at all. 

This entry carried the spirit of the Anniversary: old items, old updates, late nights, friends, and memories gathered over many years in Dal Riata.

Best Location Choice

The Fall of Dawnkeeper
Character: MK 14
Server: Tethra

The Fall of Dawnkeeper Dawnkeeper was a druid blessed with the power of the sun. Wherever he walked, life flourished, and people saw him as a symbol of hope. 

But his greatest light was Lily, the woman he loved. 

One night, monsters from the north attacked their village. Dawnkeeper fought with all his power, but he could not save everyone. Among the dead was Lily. 

Broken by grief, he began to hate the weakness of mercy. He abandoned healing and spent years gathering the sun's power within himself until he became a living sun. 

The people gave him a new name: Sunfall, the Fallen Sun. 

Believing fear could protect the world better than kindness, he spread destruction wherever he went. 

One day, consumed by rage, he unleashed a storm of fire and destroyed the very forest he had once sworn to protect. When the flames faded, he noticed something among the ashes. 

A single white lily. 

"Lily..." 

For the first time in years, he remembered who he once was. 

The monsters had taken Lily from him. But he was the one who had taken everything else from the world. 

Overcome with regret, he released all the solar power he had gathered back into the heavens. For ten days, the sky shone with golden light as forests, rivers, and fields were restored. 

When the light finally faded, Dawnkeeper was gone. 

Only a legend remained: a druid who saved the world twice once as its guardian, and once by admitting he had become its greatest threat.

The location did more than frame the character. It gave the whole screenshot its mood, its story, and its sense of place.

Funniest Look

The Carrowmore Training Academy
Character: Phanoja Baughan
Server: Epona

That's me and my daddy in the picture. We live deep in the Carrowmore Tunnels and train monsters to become stronger and defeat heroes. My dad teaches special combat classes while I help train the younger recruits. Our students still struggle against fully buffed heroes and entire clans, but we never give up. One day, Carrowmore's monsters will make heroes run for their lives!

A Carrowmore family, a monster training academy, and one very serious plan to finally scare a few heroes. This one was strange in the best way.

Community Favorite
