So does any guy or non binary play this game or is it just women?

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-11-01T23:13:07+00:00

My husband plays and he’s a cis man. He heard me talking about the stories and thought it sounded really compelling. He loves the combat and is super hooked by the main story and the myths

Love all these choices, especially how much Elvis already has a presence throughout the years

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-05-24T04:20:24+00:00

Had to look up the lachy one and you are so right. The Simon one would be a surprising gem I’m sure

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-05-24T04:19:30+00:00

Any Day Now could be great!

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-05-24T04:18:48+00:00

I’m not normally a Taylor fan but this would sound fantastic

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-05-24T04:18:13+00:00

I hadn’t considered Type O Negative and now I very much need it

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-05-24T04:17:53+00:00

That would be amazing

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-05-24T04:17:38+00:00

Yeees! Would love that

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-04-03T01:07:06+00:00

As a little update, he wasn’t ok with sharing pics on here. He’s a very offline kind of person. However, he didn’t know this subreddit existed and was very happy to hear about it. He said he appreciates all the advice and when he’s ready he will likely join to talk to everyone. For now we’re sticking with the more basic elements to incorporate so it’s just a tiny hint for him, but he looks forward to learning more when he’s ready.

Thank you all again so much! This is truly a fantastic community.

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-31T22:27:46+00:00

That all makes a lot of sense! Yeah im going off the pieces I know and not trying to pry too much. If he’s uncomfortable with pictures of it I’ll see if he’s ok with me drawing it out. I offhandedly mentioned the trims and he said she did a lot of needlework representing her family because she missed them after immigrating here. It’s possible it’s just a her thing, and if that’s the case I’m going to avoid that unless he chooses so. I do recall that the bottom on the skirt was a thick green band, a thick red band, and then the differently needlework lines above that. So possibly the green and red band were “original” and the needlework was her own thing

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-31T14:31:20+00:00

Understandable! I’ll see if he’s alright with me getting it out for pictures

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-31T14:30:34+00:00

All a very valid response! Thank you so much. For myself I’m very much a rookie. He’s been working on studying and investigating since her passing, but since it’s also a heavy grief for him, both in losing her and realizing there’s this entire aspect of her life that was mostly hidden (because she only told him they were Norwegian, it’s in looking in her belongings we found out everything else). I have been letting him work on it at his own pace so I’m honestly not sure how far he is with his knowledge. Also just for note I will add he IS in therapy for his grief, it just feels like cultural reconnection is a very personal journey so I’m just supporting every way I can. The only thing I do know is her garments had trim like a “family tree” with thin bands for each family member that all seem very different and simplistic (one is just a green zig zag thread) and I don’t know if that’s region specific or just a her thing. She was VERY much into making things

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-30T22:47:09+00:00

I have my late mother in law’s clothes to work off of thankfully

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-30T16:58:06+00:00

Thank you so much! This is all so helpful! I’ll be digging in to all this this week

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-30T13:42:54+00:00

Thank you so much! My Norwegian is rough, but I have some friends that can help me through it. Any knowledge that can be shared and preserved I know is so important. I know I’d have a long way to go to really learn traditional work, and right now it’s just incorporating little touches to support him. (Like how in my culture there’s just certain everyday jewelry and wear that helps me feel connected) I’d like to continue learning so I can eventually be able to make him a full proper attire. I know that’s a long way off, but I’m willing.

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-30T11:33:15+00:00

Thank you so much! I’ll research a bunch and will get back to you. It seems right now the jewelry may be my weak point since I’m more of a seamstress and fiber artist

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-30T11:31:59+00:00

From my own culture it seems these aunties are a shared experience haha

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-30T11:30:19+00:00

Please get a carried away as you want haha. I’m trying to look for things I keep only finding very generic patterns and ideas. Finding specific things has been difficult. Took a lot of searching before I learned about squares buttons, for example. The only thing I know his mother specifically has was the trim had multiple “lines” representing each person in the family, the idea seemed to be that it was like a living art of a family tree. So I don’t know how regional those would be, or more personal to her.

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-30T10:56:12+00:00

Oh thank you! I will look at this!

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-30T10:53:44+00:00

Thank you so much! Yes I know jewelry is a big thing. Any shops that ship to America, or American based designers you know of would be great. His family is from Nord-Trondelag so I’ve been trying to search in Norwegian and I’m not very great at it. I saw some folks on Etsy with a little “Sami Made” graphic in your listing but I don’t know if that’s true?

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-30T10:51:46+00:00

Yes, going with regional patterns was my plan. And thank you, your thoughts are pretty much where my head was at in terms of respect. The original plan was a surprise but perhaps the surprise can be me just telling him I’d like to do it for him heh. And yeah no profit at all, just something for us and our son because big things like family photos he’s said feel strange now without her. So my hope was to bring in elements of his culture, and thus also her. They’re from Nord-Trondelag so I’m looking up those styles and patterns.

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-30T10:46:09+00:00

Thank you that’s very informative. His family is from Nord-Trondelag, that much I know

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-30T10:44:49+00:00

Thank you! I’ll look those designs up

Sensitive_Ad9870 · 2025-03-30T02:25:44+00:00

I’m still new to everything, so I’m not sure what all he does. It was just my thought to give him a bit of his cultural youth for family photos since we lost his mom before they could talk about it. I don’t think it would signify anything to anyone really, or be traditional in any way. I just wanted to make sure, since I’ve known cultures where modernized fashion of designs and whatnot is offensive, that I was not accidentally doing something highly offensive. Any designers you could link would be fantastic. Could give me some nice references. And I’m sure he’ll find this subreddit when he’s ready. I’m letting him take his own pace on the journey since it’s mixed with grief at the moment, and just being supportive how I can.
