Design Selene's Crown

Active

Selene's crown is an instrument of power. Design period-appropriate crown or headpiece variations for Selene that could plausibly exist in 550 BC while still feeling elevated and mythic. These designs should signal ritual authority rather than royal vanity. Create a frame showing Selene wearing the crown within the throne room.

Guidelines: Ceremonial not ornamental. Intimidation through symbolism. Period informed but not literal. Designed to command the room.

The crown should be bronze, not gold — gold is for kings, and Selene is something older than a king. Serpent motifs wind through the metalwork, their bodies forming the structure of the crown itself. Laurel leaves are integrated but subordinated to the serpents, as if Apollo's symbol has been absorbed into something that predates him. The crown has weight — ceremonial, physical, psychological. When Selene wears it, the room changes. The architecture responds. The caged serpent below the throne goes still. This crown was not made to be beautiful. It was made to make everyone in the room understand who speaks for the god.
