Journeyman Halfling Cultural Book text:
only a fool thinks of a Halfling as nothing more than a tiny bundle of silliness. Their laughter is certainly the most common sound at their gatherings, but a Halfling takes matters of war as seriously as they do any party. The long tradition of the Leatherfoot guards is a testament to the ability to take danger seriously. Conflict, however, is something that these gentle folk prefer to keep out of their daily lives, and sometimes it can be difficult to rouse a settlement of Halflings into the attitude needed to deliver a war properly. These volumes explore in-depth the traditions, symbols and organizations of Halfling war. It shows the tradition of symbols and banners used in war, focusing on insignia used on armor.
This volume takes a deep look into the modern day symbols of Halfling society. It compares them to symbols used in the past an explores the effect they have on Halfling society. It discusses the use of masks and unusual hats throughout Halfling history and how the current Leatherfoot style evolved. The main focus of this volume, however, is how those symbols effect the folk of Rivervale. It distills those symbols, through clever use of analogy and anecdotes, into one symbol that emcompasses the moral and physical strength of modern Halflings.
Among the pages of discussion about these symbols is a pattern. This pattern distills the symbols of modern Halfling culture into a single insignia that has a powerful meaning to the citizens of Rivervale. You know that you will be able to reproduce this pattern many times before the book becomes worn and you must replace it.
To create pattern for tailoring armor templates based on these patterns you will need this book, a large bottle of ink, a roll of vellum, a quill and a compacted backpack to hold the patterns you will make. You'll also need a book binding to do the work.
Journeyman Halfling Ancestral Armor Book text:
This book is primarily a study of armor found throughout the history of the Halfling race, but it is liberally laced with whimsical tales and anecdotes. At first glance these stories seem to just fill the extra pages between the seroius discussions. And for most other races it always seems so. A Halfling reader, however, sees a link between the stories, the armor and the patterns. There is a powerful logic in the sequence of the items shown in the book, for the most part, only Halflings fully understand. The tales focus on individuals making their way through huge conflicts. The humor is often about a foe of a larger race tripping over a loose boot strap or an agile opponent finding his Halfling foe is even quicker. In every case the reader learns something valuable about its fashioning or adornment. Of course, in every case the reader is also amused and entertained, for what good is a book if it doesn't entertain?
The patterns in this book can be copied many times, but they will eventually wear out and you can tell that is you use the patterns enough you will need to replace the book.
To create pattern for tailoring armor templates based on these patterns you will need this book, a large bottle of ink, a roll of plain parchment, a quill and a compacted backpack to hold the patterns you will make. You will also need a book binding to do the work.
If you wish to use the patterns to make molds you'll need a kiln to work in as well as a high quality firing sheet, sculpting tools a huge block of clay and a compacted backpack to hold the molds when you're done.
