I'm thinking of making a Kai costume. I already have a pair of black boots made of leather, that I got for the purpose of going to a few medieval fairs around the USA. What do you guys and gals think? Any ideas on what cloth I should use? I know it has to be forest green. Maybe I'll sew the inside of the cloak with wood-colored fabric. Any thoughts of ideas'd be appreciated.

The Kai cloak is described as being very warm, so wool would probably be the best fabric to use. A brown or black interior would make a lot of sense, allowing you to reverse the cloak and still blend in if surroundings change.

Kai costume? Let's see... Kai cloak, Sommerswerd, Silver Bow, Dagger of Vashna, Silver Bracers, Silver Helm, bulging belt pouch, backpack...  Seriously though, even if you're getting more feedback at TotS, give us here a look when it's done! And as a genuine suggestion, you might want some sort of subtle sun insignia on there somewhere. |

Nah, I haven't posted it yet at the Tower.... You hafta join, and I don't think the thing was working the day I checked... I wanted to just make a plain costume, kind of a Kai Initiate or however it's spelled. No silver of any kind, although that'd be cool. The sun I'm not sure about. Maybe I can make a clasp to hold the cape on.

Kai Initiate is fine. That would be simply Lincoln green.
