Tehir Cultural Clothing

Tehir Cultural Clothing is a collection of scripted items introduced in Common Weaves found at Rumor Woods.

Many of these items were already described in existing Tehir cultural documents, but using common nouns like "skirt," "sandals," and "pants." However, there were distinct notes about how these items should be styled, what they should be made of, and under what circumstances they should be worn. Because there was already so much character there for the garments, it seemed reasonable for them to have their own unique names. Though the definitions will be listed here for clarification, they're also largely available in the existing Tehir docs listed at the bottom of the page.

Items in the Collection

Item	Description	Lore
Aseges	woman's layered skirt	Existing Lore: These garments are considered outlets of creativity for Tehir women and range from solid colors to patterned, often accomplished by block printing repeatedly to form overlapping geometric patterns (I have a future script idea for Tehir fabric printing that will eventually play into this.) Women often bustle their skirts by tying some up while leaving others loose.
		Added Lore: These skirts always have a waistband fitted with ribbon ties that serve as additional adornment when not in use and aid in the bustling when in use, while the hems of the skirts are decorated with beads, belled-chains, and charms.
Artim	gender-neutral sandals	Existing Lore: worn either ankle-tied or loose, possessing a simple bifurcated strap that begins between the toes and extends across the top of the foot. Tehir sandals are formed on rush, wood, or hide soles. Some women take fancy to intricately braiding the leather commonly used in their construction.
		Added Lore: n/a
Tisrin	cultural ring	Existing Lore: n/a (This is an entirely new item.)
		Added Lore: Worn by both men and women alike, these rings appear when worn to be multiple separate rings stacked a small space apart, however the ring is actually a single piece, fused and joined along the back. Worn between the knuckles at varying heights to avoid restricting movement.
Tesarit	single cultural earring	Existing Lore: n/a (This is an entirely new item.)
		Added Lore: A single dangling earring worn by men and women alike on formal occasions. Typical components usually include a totem-carved bone - animal, symbol, etc., a brightly colored glass or gemstone bead, and a single spherical bell.
Erasay	men's sleeveless or short sleeved shirt	Existing Lore: With short or no sleeves, it is distinctive because it will have either a notched or drawstring neckline, typically worn by men of high status.
		Added Lore: n/a
Duaidz	men's bloused trousers	Existing Lore: These were only mentioned in passing, without much of a description, so the details are new.
		Added Lore: These frequently worn in conjunction with an erasay, they can be tailored either with or without vents, which typically run from the lower thigh to just above the cuff.
Hudor	woman's tabard	Existing Lore: This is an existing item that made sense to include in the group of scripts. Existing item is described as simply a normal tabard, but some additional notes were added as to style.
		Added Lore: They can be worn open at the sides, though they can also be laced on the sides or belted at waist length to give more structure to the garment.
