Outfit for Icye.

So I made Icye an outfit the other day, about the same day I made the crimson outfit a couple posts ago for Andadrien. I suppose I'm in a "red kick". I tend to get in color fads where I make a lot of outfits in the same color and then completely stop and move on to the next color. Maybe it's too much red, but oh well, I like it.

Here's a couple screen shots of Icye's character along with a surprise appearance from a silly little dwarf who decided to photo-bomb my screen shot! Hehe! I don't remember what I used for this outfit. If I remember to ask Icye what this is, I will update.




The Tiniest Rohirrim.

I made this outfit when my little hunter first entered Rohan - she certainly needed a new outfit to wear in this grand new place that she'd yet to venture in to. She's ready to ride and be as fearsome as the next!




She roams from the Eaves of Fangorn to the fields of the Wold in:
Ceremonial Doom-Hunter's Helm - Dyed Olive
Dunland Caretakers's Patched Mantle - Dyed Olive
Strong Dunlending Combat Armour - Dyed Umber
Traveller's Road-worn Bracers - Dyed Umber
Vibrant Brushed Skirmish Boots - Dyed Olive



"Quiet as shadow"

Same Dress, Two completely different looks.

I didn't bother to pick this dress up last time the festival rolled around, but when I saw it a week or two ago in the Auction House, I snatched it up. I made two outfits with it. One for the little hobbit hunter, and one for Andadrien.

When I looked at my hobbit, it just screams "Little Red Riding Hunter". With the hood and the crimson, it's kind of inescapable. While visiting a friend's home in the Shire Homesteads, she went jumping through a mushroom circle; however, don't be fooled by the sweet, little antics - she's a deadly little thing with her bow.


She is wearing:
Gifted Ancient Helm of the Horse-Lords - Dyed Red
(Yes, I realize this is a gold HL item, and that many people may not have access to it. I had it equipped, so it was readily accessible for me. There are so many other hood-like head pieces in the game that could be easily substituted in for this item.)
Harvest-brew Dress - Dyed Crimson
Plain Cloak - Dyed Crimson

~~

Andadrien has a little bit more expensive taste. She likes to throw gold in the air and inspect her gems to make sure that they remain flawless. This took me approximately 3 minutes from when I got the dress to create it - it's super easy: headpiece, cloak, and *bam* it's done. Not going to lie, I totally thought about the Lannisters from Game of Thrones when I saw this outfit finished it as it is all crimson and gold. If you like to read, they are good books. I'm on the 5th book.




Andadrien is wearing:
Ceremonial Hat of the Written Word - Dyed Red
Harvest-brew Dress - Dyed Crimson
Golden Tree Summer Cloak - Dyed Red

Horse of Many Colours

I may have beaten Saruman T2C on Tuesday.. It was pretty super exciting.



I know I paused because I got a killing blow. Actually, while watching through the video, I noticed at least one other KB that I got. Since I'm doing pure heals, I find this highly amusing. I suspect it is because I was using the ring to put a corruption on the various Sarumans, and once the corruption was removed, damage from that killed it to give me the KB.

And completing this (along with one last deed for one of the 3-mans) got me my Horse of Many Colours!


It's possibly the coolest looking steed in the game. For those of you who haven't seen it in person, the colours on it change and shimmer and whirl about.



Because the steed is so unique, it's practically impossible to match anything to it; although when the colours on the horse turn purple-ish, I think my recent violet outfit works well with it. There is only one robe in the game that matches the steed, and it is worn by Saruman himself. By the looks of him, he doesn't exactly want to part with him, so I'll have to make do.
