I know! Oh Delenn. <3 Mostly I am happy they changed the makeup because she's gorgeous, and the harshness of her pilot prosthetic hide that. Also the bone crests in the pilot are ugly. I ... didn't realize I had aesthetic standards for Minbari bone crests before now.
And apparently she has a whole closet full of plastic Rings of Power, presumably acquired when the Minbari mugged Tolkien's Elves en route to the West.
Brb, LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY. I mean, I already knew that the Minbari were basically Elves and that Delenn is Luthien only even awesomer, which breaks the awesome barrier but I am SO GLAD they did not keep those plastic Rings of Power. /o\
I am sort of relieved to know that the Entil'Zha Valen line wasn't in the original pilot. My brain already wants to explode with how they handled the recasting and Sinclair's Valen plotline, and if they really were that specific, that early on, I'd actually have to respect JMS in the morning.
