Elven Tunic - Army

Despite the intricacies of their magic and the legion of unspoken and inviolate laws of Elvish court... the fair folk often prefer to dress simply while adventuring. The Elven Tunic suits that need well and provide maneuverability and comfort.

The way the human children look at you, you would assume they have never seen an elf before. Granted, it isn’t often that you travel into cities. You prefer the tranquil sounds of the forest, away from the stench and chaos of busy human streets.

However, you have business with a certain wizard in town. So while your elven garb--Elven Tunic, armour, and weapons--cause you to stand out amongst the crowd, you continue without raising a fuss. After all, they are only short-lived creatures. They don’t know any better than to stare.

DETAILS

Epic Armoury’s Elven Tunic is a long-sleeved embroidered shirt designed in an elven style, with a narrow V-shaped neckline. Reaching from the shoulders to the knees and made from soft, dyed cotton, this tunic can be a costume all by itself--or work as a base layer in a more complicated design. Move around the forest easily thanks to an A-cut at the front of the hem, and feel relieved to know that the narrow cuffs won’t get in the way of your Elven Bow. Embellished with elven-inspired embroidery and matching edging along the neck, this elven cut tunic is an essential and long-lasting piece in any costuming wardrobe.

HISTORY

• Historically worn by a great variety of people and cultures--with many different types of cuts!
• The name derives from the Latin tunica, the basic garment worn by both men and women in Ancient Rome
• Generally considered a male garment and was still worn in Norway until the 17th century

IN THE WOODLAND REALM

Is your elven character a majestic, noble member of the High Elven court leading an urbane lifestyle? Or is it a balanced ranger mastering the bow, living a naturalistic life in the forest? Either way: you might be immortal and possess magical powers, but you are probably also just a tad vain and eager to look your best.

Epic Armoury’s Elven Belt is a beautifully crafted leather belt designed specifically for your ethereal character. Made from brown leather embossed with a subtle vine-like inspired pattern and an ornate fully cast brass buckle with an exquisite elven symbol, the belt is fastened with a stud on each side of the buckle. Four additional thinner leather straps, two on each side, are attached to the buckle in front and a brass ring in the back for decorative purpose or for practical reasons such as hanging your accessories. A spacer in the back with two small hooks allows you to adjust the size for a perfect fit. This garment is a graceful yet strong high-fantasy statement; an absolute essential when crafting your LARP kit! Available in three different sizes.

You are the kindred of the immortals, having honed your skills for hundreds of years. No normal mortal being can surprise you.

“Come out of hiding,” you call over your shoulder. “I know you are there.”

As you hear the ‘thwap!’ of an archer’s bow, you spin and dodge the incoming arrow, unsheathing your Elven Sword in one fluid motion. The fight has begun.
