Welcome!

Happy birthday cimrandir!

Thanks Iodo! They are quite skinny if you look close Jack but still beautiful. I'd love to see what they look like in your neck of the woods. I wish that was my blazer lol https://i.imgur.com/BIollQh.jpg Took me a while and its not a great pic because its my phone camera shot through binos but you ...

No, not me. He was testing out some gear during covid when cons and LARP's were banned. When I first heard about it it seemed like a funny scenario (and it kind of is) but honestly it was no joke. The police had pointed loaded weapons at him and said "put the sword on the floor" and he ha...

Well met & welcome!

Thats so cool! Really nailed the aesthetic (in my mind at least). And LOL at the message in runes. I'm sure that'll come in handy if it is ever misplaced exploring the mountainside or the desolation of Smaug

That would definitely be an interesting persona to see fleshed out Udwin. Looking forward to that. Semi-unrelated but I've been kicking around an idea along those lines in an TTRPG setting. You play as a heroic band battling evil forces and about halfway through the twist is revealed that you're the...

Lol Togon I was thinking the same thing the other day

Nice, i especially like the buckles

Nice!

Yes to the buckhorn and I think the splat is mouse-ear hawkweed but not 100%

If we're talking about soft goods people 1000 yrs ago had the means to make but just hadnt thought of yet, id have to second the introduction of the backpack like Iodo already said. Things like waxed tarps, gathered end hammocks, and more modern patterned pants also come to mind. Probably gonna want...
