Plumed Hair Do-Hickey

Posted by GM Thandiwe

Henphelia was like no other chicken. She was long of leg, round of bottom, and had the most unruly of hair. Yes, hair. Now I know that it sounds strange that a hen would have hair, but she had long locks that flowed down her back. She never really knew what to do with them.

Until she went to market one day and bought a feather. Upon wearing the feather, her hair was transformed and she preened in front of the other hens in the hen house.

You gingerly clip the feather into your hair and it quickly gets hidden in your tresses.

You nimbly weave your waist length hair into a multitude of thin herringbone braids that hug your skull.

She has waist length, straight golden blonde hair separated into a multitude of thin herringbone braids that hug the skull and are woven with thin beads and dusky grey pigeon feathers.

I wonder what Henphelia will do in market tomorrow...

Henphelia, the odd hen, was pretty happy with how her hair had turned out, but when she went to the Market a second time....

"Hey, Henphia," a funny looking girl called out to her. "I can make that even better..."

Henphelia was most pleased with the results.

>Drawing your bangs back from your face, you carefully weave them into a five-plait braid and then pinch the ends together with a bit of twine and twin dusky grey pigeon retrices.

>She has waist length, straight golden blonde hair with her bangs gathered to the right temple and woven into a single five-plait braid adorned with twin dusky grey pigeon retrices.

I wonder what Henphelia will do tomorrow.

That crazy hen is at it again! When she got to the market, another merchant saw her and taught her a new trick with her feather.

Now, she's so excited and shows off for all the other hens.

>Using three fingers, you gently rake your hair away from your face and bind it in place with thin dusky grey combs that are decorated with pigeon pennae.

The Old One-Two

Howdy folks!

Since I've been gone for a while, I will have a lot to tease about! Here's something for those of you that like footwraps and handwraps.

>glance

You glance down to see a tight ball of soft grey linen in your right hand and nothing in your left hand.

>inspect my linen

You carefully inspect your soft grey linen.

After a careful inspection, you determine that a tight ball of soft grey linen are suitable for use in unarmed combat.

You determine that you could wear the linen on your feet. The linen appears to serve some purpose.

It looks like this item has been mainly crafted out of cloth.

Well, how does that work?

Like this:

>wear my linen

Holding the end of the soft grey linen against your ankle bone, you begin to gently wrap it around first the ankle, then across the top and around the arch of your foot. You point your toes, testing the tightness of your wrapping job and, satisfied, repeat the process with the left foot so that both feet are adorned in newly made grey linen footwraps.

And now for the hand:

>inspect my suede

You carefully inspect your vivid red suede.

After a careful inspection you determine that a tight ball of vivid red suede is suitable for use in unarmed combat.

You determine that you could wear the suede on your hands. The suede appears to serve some purpose.

It looks like this item has been mainly crafted out of leather.

>wear my suede

Cupping the end of the vivid red suede in your right hand, you gently wrap it around your palm and carefully weave it between your fingers. Once done, you flex your fingers to test the fit, and then repeat the process on the left so that both hands are adorned in newly made zorchar-beaded handwraps.

Big thank you to GM Vanah who was able to fix that oddity with inspect.(Cause she's the best!)

Here's another teaser for them:

You are wearing a blossom-carved white birch amulet, a stiffened dark green jerkin, "a pair of vivid zorchar-beaded handwraps with exposed fingertips", a pair of side-laced trousers, and "a pair of soft grey linen footwraps with exposed heels and toes".
