[QUOTE="Whizbang Dustyboots, post: 3692819, member: 11760"] Oh, I do agree that it's great that she doesn't look like she hangs out with Elrond. That IS a nice break. But the poor girl can't even sit down wearing what she does. (One shudders to think of all the awful things that could happen to someone sitting on a typical dungeon floor without pants. :uhoh: ) There are relatively realistic iconics. * Gimble, for all the bard-favored-race angst he evokes, looks like he could actually walk down a typical fantasy street or even into a dungeon. * Lidda's outfit, while it should probably have baggier knees and elbows than it's typically depicted as having, dresses pretty reasonably. * Redgar, minus the shoulder spikes that prevent him from raising his arm high enough to climb a ladder or attack a flying enemy, is pretty reasonable. * Alhambra (or whatever her name is) is almost reasonably armored, except the tops of her thighs should have their own armor plates or something, even if she was a lightly armored mounted warrior. * The druid, as has been said, seems sort of reasonable and, again, big points for not looking like a JRRT elf. But many of the others have one or more show-stopping bad ideas. [/QUOTE]
