I love how you joined her long hair with the cloth, giving an illusion of movement.
The ornaments on the hair are perfect, not too cluttered where the eyes gets confused, not too skimpy where the eyes skip over it. The difference of the eye-color compared to the overall hue of the character itself is a great addition, making the eye trace back from it's waving aura to the face. The background completes the setting and becomes a middle-man for the sword.

- I'm at a lost of words of what to say about this avatar considering how everyone else pretty much said what needed to be said. Fascinating. Extravagant and intriguing. Not really the words I want to use but they will have to do. 5/5 of course. :]
