Havenite - Basic Costume


If you decide to play a native of Strangehaven rather than one of the many myriad character options available in Shards, this may help you to decide what to wear.

A typical Havenite should wear costume styled on historical European clothing from periods known as the the Dark Ages through to Medieval. Havenites who have travelled and visitors have brought with them new fashions and ideas throughout the ages. These have been incorporated into their style of dress, so feel free to add eccentric touches to the costume which may have been all the rage somewhere... once.

A couple of samples are shown here, from the most basic such as a simple shirt paired with some stretchy leggings to fitted woolen hose, doublet and all the trimmings.

For other ideas try the Viking Village we use

If you do decide you would like to play a Havenite, please contact us for more information.
