  • Today is the submission date for this contest.



  • And just to add my two cents… the gypsies are excellent leather workers and workers of silk... as Belthor mentioned... gypsy blue and natural colors... the Romani use something called a coldberry that grows in the Hidden Pass which has that rich royal blue. They have a secret recipe that includes odd ingredients (one of the reasons the dogs are kept around camp 😛 ). Thier wine comes from vinyards of a type of grape that grows up trees... so the maroons would be good as well. The metals they tend to work in our from the caves and are mostly copper. I have highlighted the color of metal generally used as well as the gypsy blue color.

    To let you know what entries that I'll tend to vote for:

    • use natural colors
    • make sense for gypsy use (either formal or for day to day use)
    • have descriptions that are IC and add to the flavour of the item
    • are lower priced in the toolset (best will be below 400 gps), if you add any properties to them
    • are gender and age specific (i.e. they are made for male or female… not both... and Romani women traditionally wear dresses... especially trhe older ones)
    • clothing or perhaps light armor (not medium or heavy armors)
