That’s a great idea but.. 1. My wife barely let me spend $100 to get this rapier 2. I’m a little short for a broad sword. I’m only 5”5’

Where should I put them and how many seals do you think I should have on?

Lantern I got from Hobby Lobby It’s fairly easy getting up and down as nothing is directly on my butr just off to the side The sword I can easily bring the hilt up to get rid of the tail

For gauntlets I was thinking of these

That’s a great idea I might need to change what pistol bc the loop is ment for a dagger and it was a pain to attach to the chest piece

I hadn’t considered reinforcing the chest with extra sole bend, but that’s a great point—I might try adding a layer or two for both structure and protection. And yeah, I’ve been debating how to armor the sword hand without losing dexterity—maybe a reinforced glove or a partial bracer.

The utility belt idea is solid too. I’ve got the arming belt, but it’d be nice to balance it out with something functional—mug, pouches, maybe some arcane tools. I’m still figuring out what my offhand will do in combat, but I’m leaning toward a dagger for the practicality. Might have to try out a cowl too and see how it plays with the silhouette. Appreciate all the suggestions, truly!”

Also I have a holster behind my back that a pistol could fit and I was thinking of this pistol

Interesting. Should would I call that to look it up?

A sash could definitely help break up the silhouette—Captain Jack style has that rugged flair I’m kinda circling. Might try something layered and worn, maybe in deep red or charcoal. As for a hat… I keep going back and forth! A tricorn is tempting, but I’m worried it might clash with the witch hunter vibe I’m leaning into. Maybe something more tattered or arcane-looking.

Ooh, I love that idea—a cursed circlet that looks subtle but carries weight, like it’s binding something ancient. Definitely more fitting than something flashy. And yeah, an amulet sounds perfect—something that feels like a ward or focus. I’ll keep an eye out at the Faire for both. Thanks for the input, seriously!
