Ull Russ Pants - Wool

“It was winter out, and as he swung the axe, cleaving firewood, Fyodr swore loudly. He sent the axe through the next log, loudly cleaving it in two with a noise that sounded like a bold of lightning flying across the sky. He should have known that the work wouldn't when he saw the lazy lout chasing after the milkmaids. But in the morning, Fyodr would get revenge. The sheep needed to be brought in, and it was a long, cold and wet trek to those fields.”

Epic Armoury's Ull Rus Pants are inspired by the legwear of mediaeval Europe and are made from durable herringbone patterned wool. It is baggy from the waist down, giving you great freedom and comfort, but it tightens around the knee and down. You should wear leg wrappings around your lower legs for extra authenticity.

The street is a hard place to conduct business, but it’s a way of life you’ve become very good at keeping. You have a reputation as one of the deadliest rogues in the city, with knife skills to rival even the King of Thieves. He’s actually a close friend of yours...he’s the one who gave you such fine Rogue Female Armour, after all.

Those who don’t know any better think you are simply a pretty face, and those poor ol’ saps usually don’t escape with coin left in their purse.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Rogue Female Armour is a leather cuirass designed to protect the upper female chest and neck while providing a flattering and dangerous look. The chestplate, shaped to the female body, is made from sturdy full-grain leather and covers the chest, collarbone, and under the arms. The armour’s fit is highly adjustable thanks to the canvas straps crossing beneath the shoulder blades and around the small of the back.

The leather chestpiece is embellished with canvas accents against the full-grain leather. The collar can be removed to give a different look or to fit other Epic Armoury leather and metal armour pieces. With regular leather care, you can expect the Rogue Female Armour to last a long time. While designed to fit a rogue, the style will also match a broad range of worlds and characters, allowing you the freedom to create your own unique style.

HISTORY

• Historically looked down upon as a form of armour, as metal was preferred
• Finely crafted leather cuirasses were often worn by high-ranking officers and officials, including several Roman Emperors

You hold your knife between your teeth, keeping it accessible while your hands are busy using your Thieves Tools to pick a noble’s unguarded luggage. Leaving anything valuable without a guard is like an invitation to steal it...at least that’s been your experience.

Pants. They go on your legs.

You tighten your belt another notch over your Basic Pants, frowning at the watered-down soup over the fire. It’s been a long winter, and you and your family aren’t sure you’re going to have enough food. As you consider ways you might be able to afford some meat--maybe you can do some work for a merchant in town?--there’s an anxious knock on the door.

“Raiders!” shouts the messenger on your doorstep. “Raiders are coming! Every able person is being called to fight!”

Suddenly an empty belly is the least of your worries.

HISTORY

• An ancient garment of German-Celtic origin that became popular in the Roman Empire and in the successor kingdoms

“The winter was relentless. Helt felt it as he left the great hall, which, too, was cold at this hour. His family had donned their winter attire months ago, but many peasants had no such luxury. There had even been whispers that this winter would be the final one. The Fimbul. His wife and children scoffed at such talk in public but enquired with him in the dark evenings. The fear of their future was clear in their eyes. He reassured them of the warmth to come, and no living soul knew that he also felt the clutches of doubt. But he knew high spirits were essential to survive and thrive in the North. Thus he proclaimed that spring would soon arrive. Also, this year.”

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Fimbul Pants shares the Viking Age design inspiration of Pants Arvid but features a high-quality herringbone wool blend. These pants are designed with an inner and no outer seam, featuring a centre gusset that runs along the entire rise and diagonal patterns on the legs for a better fit around the knees. They are available in two shades of grey, making them a great base to pair with more colourful items in a Nordic-inspired character kit.
