Uh... What is that supposed to be?

I guess if I want to stretch it and try to justify it, the leaf does look a little like a pair of lips, but I find this to be far worse than no image at all.

Motion for immediate pulling.

Seconded. That's just bad.

I think in an abstract way it really does look like a know-it-all smile of red lips on a mysterious woman. I don't know how else you would show general mysteriousness.

I don't think it harms the page. Mostly just an artistic image, but I find it somewhat thought-provoking with a heavy "unknown" factor, which does add to the page.

Keep Until Better Image Suggested.

Pretty image, but it doesn't illustrate the trope, so pull it.

Just type "mysterious woman" into GIS and you'll come up with a load of better pictures, such as this one.

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!

I'm not sure whether I love or hate the current.

Either way, Spark's suggestion is a better page image.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

The current is clever but I much prefer Spark's suggestion.

What about "Red Coat" from Pretty Little Liars?


Things going for her: "Red Coat" wears a distinctive red coat with her face hidden under a hood and there is a Creepy Cemetery ominously visible in the background.

Can only really infer it's a female by the shape, so it doesn't really show it well.

Spark's is definitely better than what's there now.

Playing KOTOR II I would say, perhaps, Visas or Kreia. Both illustrate the point decently.

When I think of this trope, I think of Carmen Sandiego.

7 is best of the suggestions so far.

One or two more votes for 7 and we can run with it.

I give it (7) the seal of approval.

Does anyone have a caption suggestion? I cannot think of anything after a few minutes of pondering.

Except for the shades it's just like the description describes. I support 7.

Good enough. 7 is up and tagged. I got nuthin' for a caption right now.

Isn't it more mysterious without a caption? Or will that just either attract some worse caption along the way, or make people confused?

We can always tag it to say not to add a caption.
