The Grandmaster Tailor

As a young Norn, War Bear was captivated by the sight of foreigners entering his hometown of Hoelbrak. This was first occasion he could remember non-Norns entering the sacred hunting lodge. The visitors were from the esteemed Tailors Guild and had come to tailoring station at the Trade Commons outside the great lodge. While most gawked at how short and oddly shaped the visitors were, War Bear couldn't stop staring at their magnificent garb. For so long he had only ever seen his fellow Norns dressed in animal pelts, furs and leathers. But these Tailors wore robes of exotic colors and fabrics he'd never seen. The experience stayed with War Bear, and after completing his Great Hunt, he left Hoelbrak to study with the Grandmasters in the Tailors Guild at their Guild Hall in Divinity's Reach. There he learned the art and science of crafting exquisite light armor. Wanting to break away from his traditional roots, War Bear started to experiment with brighter colors and lighter materials rather than the muted tones and fur influences of his kinsman. Today, carrying his trusty Tailors backpack and wearing his signature cap, War Bear travels around Tyria sharing his passion for tailoring with others. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hello Everyone. This is my first post to this website, but I've been coming here for a while now. This entire look was inspired by the elegant tailor's backpack. I really loved the colors and details in the embroidery so I wanted to create a skin set and dye theme that would match and compliment the design. Also, I knew I wanted to use the celebratory cap because 1) it's a skin that not everyone has and can't be obtained anymore and 2) I didn't see any looks on this site that I felt effectively incorporated it into the design. Usually it was just Ash Ketchem clones. The glorious part about this look is that everything is SUPER AFFORDABLE!. The skins can all be crafted at a fairly low level of tailoring, the legs only take about 2 or 3 runs of CoE to earn tokens for. The dyes are dirt cheap, with the most expensive one being dusk, for a couple gold. And the Christmas skins i used on my dagger and scepter are less than a silver each! The only thing is that glorious mustache is norn only, but if you don't have a norn it still looks great with most other beard and mustache options. (And if you don't have the celebratory hat, the adventurer's goggles are a great substitute as well). Ironically this look started as a joke, but then it evolved into something truly amazing and is now my favorite look so far. Overall I'm really happy with this look, and I hope you guys like it. (Sorry if the screens aren't perfect, I'm realizing how difficult it is to take great screenshots in game. Hopefully it's enough for you all to see the character and the design)
