    Why does it have blue hair? I don’t think hair dye exists in a medieval world, or at least and easily accessible one

      It isn’t a medieval world though.

      It is a fantasy world that merely resembles medieval Europe. You can see this in the way she cast freaking magic.

      And even back then people dyed their hairs, yes including blue.

      Magic? Nothing to blink twice at!

      Hair color that’s fun for the player? Realism ruined.

        It’s so funny when people get caught up with things like that.

        It’s also funny but a little sad when people’s expectations of how colorful ancient times ought to be, or rather shouldn’t be, create standards of “realism” that are completely opposite to how history really was.

        You can show the asterisks by putting \ in front of them, like so: \*\*\* looks like ***

      Hair dye DID exist in medieval times tho, and in fact, even ancient Egyptians dyed their hair

      “It” might not even be human, and could be part of a species that naturally has blue hair pigment.

      “It” is also a fantasy character casting magic spells - it wouldn’t be far fetched that aesthetic magic exists.
