"For you are a lady high and valiant and have yourself won renown that shall not be forgotten; and you are a lady beautiful, I deem, beyond even the words of the Elven-tongue to tell. And I love you".

This is the moment I fell for @sydney_lauren00

Wishing you all a splendid weekend!!

Do you have patterns for leather armor? And or any tips and tricks? I’m getting ready to start working on my first project that’s actually going to be used for armored combat and I was wondering if you had any advice!

I get most of my patterns from Black Raven Armory, and can't recommend them highly enough. Alex's instructions that come with them are fantastic.

For armor that's combat-ready, you'll need to laminate everything to get it thick enough. 12 oz leather plus 3oz suede to line it should be more than enough

Hi Katie, I noticed you started following me! Would it be alright if I base a Baldur's Gate 3 character (Tav) on you? Obviously you could suggest which class 🙂

I have no idea when you sent this, but absolutely! My personal favorite class is Paladin

[unicorn-shieldmaiden]

Come check out the launch of @rpg_storytelling 's new world and campaign, Myths of Gaia! I'll be playing Freya Valisson, a Demigod Paladin with an affinity for unicorns and well-intentioned mischief. Session Zero is tonight at 9pm MST. I'll be in all my unicorn-knight glory both in and out of game!
