Over a year ago PD announced that they would be ending their then current campaign, Maelstrom, and starting a new campaign in 2013. This campaign is Empire and I am massively excited about it.
A group of us started planning what we would sort of game we would like to play within Empire, and where this would best fit in the setting. The nation that captured our imaginations the most was the League. This is a nation of colour and intrigue, or fighting bravos and underhand politics. Perfect for us and our play style.
Also, it really helped that the costuming for the League was so bloody beautiful!
And of course I became extremely excited about making these costume. Possibly more so than was seemly.
Currently I am making costumes for myself and two others; Joe and Jim.
Jim is intending to play a Ritual Mage and wants some very flash clothing for rituals, as well as everyday clothing.
Joe will be playing a politician, aiming for Senator, so wants constantly noticeable clothing to make him stand out from the crowd.
I haven't yet decided what I'll play, there are far too many things catching my eye. However I will be aiming for some sumptuous gowns, as well as some more practical doublet and hose combinations.
My intention is to record my progress here in order to have a record for other people looking to make their own clothing, just like Tim and Jess are doing here.
