Guest Posted April 2, 2018 Posted April 2, 2018 I'm really curious about this. I know she has four siblings, and I think there may be two years difference between each of them, but I don't remember at the moment. Help please?
Elandera she/her Posted April 2, 2018 Posted April 2, 2018 Here's what's in Coppermind's article about Siri. Quote Soon after the book begins, King Dedelin decided to send Siri to wed the God King in Vivenna's place. So at seventeen, Siri found herself ripped from her carefree life and deposited in a carriage to T'Telir. 1
Guest Posted April 2, 2018 Posted April 2, 2018 Thank you, it's been a while since I read it, but someone asked me so now I can tell them.
Guest Posted April 2, 2018 Posted April 2, 2018 One more question I'm afraid. hair changes color based on emotion, but which color would represent sexual arousal? Red or Blonde?
TruthlessofNalthis Posted April 2, 2018 Posted April 2, 2018 Red is anger if I remember correctly and while they never refer to blonde that I know of, they do refer to pale colored hair as a response to fear.

Yellow-blonde hair is connected to feelings of happiness, while platinum-blonde/grey-white is fear. 1

I remember her blushing once in conversation with bluefingers and it turning red, so maybe if she were sexually aroused it would be either red or blonde? I'm trying to get a better image in my head what her hair color is when during that first week in the god emporers bed chambers as he watches her. Also, when she is asleep and feeling nothing at all, what is her default hair color? Edited April 3, 2018 by Saint Boot
Guest Posted April 4, 2018 Posted April 4, 2018 Another question I have about the royal locks is if she does not have full control of the color shifts, how rapid are these shifts? If she went from embarresed to angry, to scared, to confused in the span of a few seconds, would it be running through those color changes instantly in sequence or would it play out slower than that? meaning does it start at her roots, and move downward to her tips, or does it all happen at once like a blink and you will miss it kinda thing? Like the horse of a different color from the wizard of oz?

I don't believe we know if it's all at once or not. Either way, I'd imagine that it's a pretty fast transformation.

Change it's color and length at will. Maybe it's just me, and a girl thing? Don't be afraid to correct me if I am wrong though, and there are some guys out there would wish the same.

Also, when she is asleep and feeling nothing at all, what is her default hair color? If I'm remembering that scene correctly, she's flustered and angry at the sudden removal of her privacy, which neatly explains why her hair blushes with the rest of her. As for how the transition occurs, I was always under the impression that the whole strand changed color at once, but going from root to tip is a more interesting image.
IndigoAjah he/him Posted April 5, 2018 Posted April 5, 2018 I was rereading it recently and I'm not certain but I think the text alludes to the colour going from root to tip actually
Guest Posted April 5, 2018 Posted April 5, 2018 It would be really nice if that was the case. I know there is a scene where she asks them to cut most of it off so she can regrow it instantly from really short to long ish again, But I can't remember if hair color change is instant or from top to bottom.
IndigoAjah he/him Posted April 5, 2018 Posted April 5, 2018 This is the best I can find - "“Now!” Vivenna snapped, hair tingeing red at the tips" Though it can also turn almost instantly, the way it is written at points

It started at the tips in this instance? Matter of fact: Stormlight Archive spoilers: Spoiler Didn't Kaladin notice her hair slowly turning white in book 3 when they were all in that shadow world? Shadesmar I think? I can't remember the name of it at present, but I can swear it was a slow transition to white at that point, that also slowly went back to being black, rather than instantly. I could be wrong. Edited April 5, 2018 by Ilythyrra

Red or Blonde? Red represent passion as well as anger, so probably red. And I think when Siri (should this be in a spoiler?) kisses Susebron, her hair turns red. On 02/04/2018 at 8:44 PM, Alicia Whiteheart said: Also, when she is asleep and feeling nothing at all, what is her default hair color? Black, if she's feeling nothing (represents control and calmness). I assume it would change if she was happy/scared/sad in her dream. And in regards to the discussion of the change's speed - doesn't it depend on how quickly the person's emotions change? Like when Siri gets angry very quickly, it turns red instantly or near instantly, but in Oathbringer, Spoiler The hair colour would be changing more slowly because her emotions are, or possibly because she's trying to stop them from changing at all. (Not sure if this needs a spoiler, but I put it in one anyway). .... This may be completely incorrect...

+Ark1002 Posted January 22, 2019 Posted January 22, 2019 Yes, as she pulled off the shift it says her hair bled to red. So, sorry about necro, but that's the anwer.

Red or Blonde? In the book, her hair turns a deep red during the-scene-that-must-not-be-named. It represents passion which Sanderson typically links to arousal. So evidently and speculatively it should be red.
