Excerpt from personal log
Source: Alexander McCullen
"I'm not sure how or why my father still trusts the Baroness. I guess we all have our weaknesses, and she is his. I figured my father would have severed ties with her around the time their marriage came to a rather sudden end. I know the discovery of my existence was the final nail in that coffin, and I know I should feel worse about that than I do. From what the more senior members of the Grenadiers tell me, tensions had been running high between the two of them ever since father made his deal with Serpentor. I can't say I blame the Baroness; Serpentor did use her as a human shield during the Cobra Civil War. I can see why she wasn't thrilled about the deal between him and her husband. But still, father keeps her around. She's his personal assassin and enforcer. She lets him rule over Europe without getting his hands dirty. But I don't trust her, and I don't know how my father can either. Time and again she's proven far too ambitious to be anyone's lackey. She has betrayed Cobra Commander, Serpentor, and even my father to serve her own needs. I fear it is only a matter of time before we feel the fury of this scorned woman."

And now the pictures:
Reign of the Serpent Baroness
Head: 25th Baroness v1
Torso/waist: 25th Lady Jaye
Arms: SW Deanna Shan (or whatever her name is...officer lady)
Lower coat: VvV Cobra Commander
Upper legs: 25th Scarlett
Lower legs: 25th Baroness
(the glossy red on the coat did weird things under the camera flash. Despite what it looks like, it's all one uniform color)

And with my Reign of the Serpent Destro:

I'm keeping Destro's forces to a black and red color scheme in my universe, and since I've always liked the Convention crimson Baroness, I decided to incorporate some of that into the mix.
