Multiple-Location Fabric

This type of fabric can be distinguished by the simplicity of the TAP. In all known cases, this item will be:

  • A length of <style> fabric

The <style> of the fabrics are usually a material, such as Elven silk, moonsilk, etc. While these items can be worn as a piece of a character's clothing, they are also considered good to use as a base material to offer alterers during alteration sessions.

Verbs

  • STUDY: You study your fabric. The rectangular piece of cloth is big enough to wrap around you in a variety of ways. You're sure you can TURN it to determine how it is worn, as well as FOLD and UNFOLD it to lengthen or shorten it.
  • TURN: You arrange your fabric, carefully pleating and folding it until it can be worn as a turban (folded) or headdress (unfolded).
  • TURN: You arrange your fabric, carefully pleating and folding it until it can be worn as a shawl (folded) or cape (unfolded).
  • TURN: You arrange your fabric, carefully pleating and folding it until it can be worn as a short sarong or loincloth (folded) or calf-length sarong (unfolded).
  • TURN: You arrange your fabric, carefully pleating and folding it until it can be worn as a bandeau/sleeveless vest (folded) or dress/toga (unfolded).
  • FOLD: You fold your <style> fabric in half lengthwise.
  • UNFOLD: You shake out the folds in your <style> fabric.
  • REMOVE: You remove a <style> (thing), letting the garment revert to a length of <style> fabric.

Gender Specific Information

The fabric looks different when worn by women and men.

On Women, the fabric can be:

  • a calf-length <style> sarong tied at the side
  • a thigh-length <style> sarong knotted at one side
  • a snug <style> bandeau wrapped around the chest
  • a softly draped <style> dress with a knotted halter-neck
  • a flowing <style> headdress
  • a <style> turban
  • a lightweight <style> shawl draped over the arms
  • a short <style> cape fluttering from the shoulders

On Men, the fabric can be:

  • a calf-length <style> sarong tied at the side
  • a simple <style> loincloth wrapped around the hips
  • a sleeveless <style> vest secured by pins at the shoulders
  • a pleated <style> toga with one end draped over the shoulder
  • a flowing <style> headdress
  • a <style> turban
  • a lightweight <style> shawl draped over the arms
  • a short <style> cape fluttering from the shoulders

Variations

The following variations showcase the multi-location styles of the wearable fabrics.


Feature Hider Fabric

While similar in name and initial appearance to the multi-location fabrics, another set of "length of fabrics" can be found from various merchants and raffles. These fabric lengths, which hide a character's features, will be generically worn and can come in a multitude of variations. Unlike the multi-location fabrics, this style will always start off the TAP with "A length of...", however each variation will have a different base noun associated it it. For example, "a length of calico patterned with vibrant birds" will use the noun "calico". While very different from the multi-location fabrics in that way, many of the feature hiding fabrics have the same rare material properties found with the multi-location fabrics and are also useful to supply as rare materials for sessions with alterers.

Verbs

  • STUDY: You study your <fabric name> closely, and come to the conclusion that you can do the following things with it:
WEAR, REMOVE, RAISE, LOWER, PUSH, PULL.
You're pretty sure if you wound the <fabric name> around your head and then RAISED it, the item would hide your face as well as anything you are wearing on your head.
  • WEAR: You carefully wind your <fabric name> around your head and neck, leaving your face exposed.
  • REMOVE: You deftly unwind your <fabric name> from around your head and shoulders, taking a moment to shake out the wrinkles.
  • RAISE: You adjust the folds of your <fabric name>, your face hidden but for a narrow strip of skin around your eyes.
A length of <full fabric TAP> is folded to obscure <Person>'s face, hiding all but a narrow strip of ebon skin around her eyes.
  • LOWER: You rearrange the folds of your <fabric name>, revealing your face.
  • PUSH (raised): You adjust the folds of your <fabric name>, taking extra care around your eyes.
  • PUSH (lowered): You adjust the folds of your <fabric name>, settling it comfortably around your head and neck.
  • PULL: You unwind the end of your <fabric name>, tightening the fit before securing it again.
