Poor picture choice

Image in question depicting Azure.

The image is misleading. Azure is not a normal Bleachling but was directly cursed by Ng the Hooded to have their color drained out of them. It is unclear if their image is a typical depiction. The non-colored clothing is certainly atypical. The image of Naiaj in starfinder is likely more accurate, as is the picture on page 7 of Gnomes of Golarion. —This unsigned post was made by Thistledown at 21:37, 26 October 2018.

Thanks for the context, Thistledown. Unfortunately, I don't know of any images of bleachlings that comply with the Community Use Policy—images published to the Paizo Blog or as part of a Community Use Package—and we can't upload the examples you provide unless they comply. Do you know of any images that meet those conditions, or of any artwork of bleachlings that we might be able to link to with the artist's permission? -Oznogon (talk) 22:02, 26 October 2018 (UTC)
Hey, Thistledown. I talked with John Compton a bit about this character in the office yesterday to get some more clarity on his story, and while you're correct, he is still exemplary of what a bleachling might look like. And in the absence of a better alternative image, it's better than nothing. My suggestion would be to make the caption something like, "Azure exemplifies the colorless features of a bleachling gnome." That way it's not claiming he is a bleachling, and it also links to his article, where more specific details on his nature and the origin of his condition can be provided.—Paizo Publishing, LLC.png Yoda8myhead (talk) 23:07, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
Restored the image with a caption similar to what Yoda8myhead suggested. -Oznogon (talk) 02:49, 28 October 2018 (UTC)
