Silver Alexander Sunnyyyy~ ^3^ *hugs* B is correct. Leo, the Lion Stellar Spirit. Formerly known as the mage Loki. I had already had this suit on when I found I was accidentally cosplaying as him. Embrace the cosplay spirit!

I'd be interested in learning the different names for the types of eye colors, because using the word "orbs" or "eyes" seems boring.
Pedigree: I'd forgotten where you'd asked me to post that demon for you.

Careful. Using too many different words for "eyes" will get you in trouble around here.
Especially if they're verdant oculars or whatever.

Welcome back *nudges Nihilistic*
Silver Surfer: Yes, I am aware of how annoying it can be. But I remember reading a sample Rp of someone's post that Desi was playing with... and the person used about two whole lines to describe the eyes of her character. Pretty impressed with it.
No occular, orb or eye reference either. Technical, and huge words were used. My brain imploded. *snickers*

Hey Impact!
And it's not that you'll "get in trouble" but just look silly. What is wrong with calling your eyes, eyes? Why do you have to have a fancy word for them?
Why do roleplayers put so much emphasis on what the eyes are doing, the color, etc. unless it's important to the scene?
Seems pointless to me. Say blue for blue, green for green, etc. or if you wanna dress it up slightly, you can use some of the less obscure and flowery terms for the colors but otherwise it just seems like people try to overcompensate for the lack of something in their post by shoving as many fancy words in there as they can.
Edit: Someone did that? To describe their eyes? That's not impressive, it's ridiculously over the top and boring.
All that content could have gone towards moving the scene along, instead of going into how amazing her eyes were.
I don't care if your eyes are purple with yellow swirls.
My character is paying attention to what a person is saying or doing, not how they look unless its the first time they've seen them, even then, it's Gaia and most everyone looks "different" anyway so it's not anything special.

Don't use orbs. Orbs are for cheesy teenage romance novel where fawning girls and brooding vampires stare at each other too much.

No, she was. That was her style, thesaurus induced run on sentences.
So what has been happening here?
