Hey

I have a few more questions about my character in particular
1) I plan on playing a Celt BountyHunter, are there any other Celts out there if so how many?
2) Is there an easy way to make a kilt for my character aside from the kilt what other pieces of clothing should I wear as a celt or even as a bounty hunter?
3) I have looked through the site in hopes of creating a backstory for my character but where can I find like a village or town that a celt is from?

Sorry for nagging you guys for help so much. But thanks alot for the help

Find out about other Celts in game. 

I leave the other two questions to others.

Thanks yea im looking foward to meeting everybody hopefully I can make it to the upcoming event. I have one last question though, I,ve ben assembling a outfit for my character and I dont have a kilt yet however I have a Greyish Linen shirt and black sweats. Will I loose RP points for not having a kilt?

Hi Dave!

I doubt that you will lose RP points considering how I looked my 1st event. I am a berserker barbarian! When I went to my 1st event I thought I'd be a Korm (they are the most basic humans with no real regulations) so as you might have guessed I went there looking rather not barbarian like (I was dressed in a potato sack vest!) But I was told it would be better for me being a berserker to be a barbarian (they wear all furs and earth colors and what not) But everyone will give you a break when they see you don't worry they'll realize pretty quick your new. This is only my 3rd event myself and I have the whole thing pretty down pat now, but I am also rather new.

Also if you have the money, there are A LOT of people who can make you a very nice outfit. Right now I am having a Tabbard being made and soon a leather Baldric to carry my 2 handed sword, all from the nice players at knight realms So don't worry there are a lot of options.

With NPC or PC I'd say PC if you can get everything ready by then, either way you have to take a NPC shift so you can get to try out both.

With character history, you don't have to worry about towns or cities depending on your story you could say that you lived in a very small village, no one will question you on where.

On a final note I am also 16 and there are not very many of us at knight realms so it'll be nice to see someone new. Also 2 a days sucks, I had to do that to But honestly I say go you'll have a blast!

Have fun,

Cody Queen

Thanks for the advice Cody, I think I'm gunna look into buying some stuff at the markey while I'm there. I was actually pretty suprised when you said there's not alot of other 16 year olds their, but I have two friends who are going to start playing and ones 17 the other 15.

Hey Dave,

Costuming is one of those things that evolves over time.  My first event playing my Gypsy over 10 years ago, the outfit consisted of a white poofy shirt, a purple bandanna, and a ridiculous pair of purple checkered pants.  Oh, and a home-made boffer sword.  That was it.  Everything else was normal stuff (like sneakers).

By the time I retired that PC, I had upgraded considerably.  Nice silk shirt, Moresca brand vest, leather Cavalier's hat with plumes, knee-high leather boots, a latex sword & dagger, etc.  The trick was, I didn't just drop a mound of money and buy it all at once.  Every few months, I would get one new thing.  One month it was boots, then a new silk shirt a few months after that.  A hat came in around Christmas time one year.  You get the idea - it's MUCH easier to do things gradually, and also helps the character grow.

There ARE specific requirements for playing some races.  Elves MUST have pointed ears.  Goblins MUST be green.  Celts MUST have a kilt, or some sort of Tartan, on them.  It's in the rules for a reason - it's a way of maintaining the atmosphere of the game.  If someone walked up to me and told me they were an Orc, but they weren't green, I would be very, very confused.  Similarly, if someone claimed to be a Celt without wearing the clothing that every Celt wears, it would be breaking the way the world looks.

You can find a way to make one cheap - find an inexpensive plaid fabric, and make a sash out of it.  It may be a quick job, but it's better than nothing (quite literally in this case!).  As time goes on, you may be able to upgrade to a better one, possibly even an authentic one if you're that much into it.  The good thing about kilts is that there's a lot of real-world historical resources to draw from (unlike elves & dwarves), and you can even find a lot of Scottish clothing online or at Ren Faires.  Do your homework, and you can come out looking amazing!
