Picc Topic Author Away 10^th Level Supporter Remember when we were explorers? Posts: 7101	Just polling for interest, what would people think about doing a fully in character / in costume run. Perhaps with trying for a full slot and running with a few less bodies? Semper Gumby, Always flexible. Sartre sits in in a coffee shop and asks for a coffee without cream. The barista apologizes “Sorry, we don't have any cream. Can I offer you a coffee without milk instead?”

I've run in costume before. I like it because it does add flavor to the fantasy.

Might have an interest although I will be with a daughter and 2 teen grandchildren with very little experience this year, so it may not work unless I can slip away.

I've never looked into it myself, but it might be possible. I make chainmail!

Its pricey but if you get some custom armor its actually fairly decent to wear. Chainmail is easy peasy but plate is way cooler. Yes you clank, there's not avoiding that if you want to be somewhat authentic. Many of us have plate at Amtgard and obvious all the SCA folks have good armor.

Sweet a combat room, we won't take damage!
