I have a problem
I’ve always had this problem of wanting my character to look special while also being able to look out of place if they were an npc like a member of Leda’s crew or a fellow tarnished you’d meet in the round table hold. I wanted to feel canon. The problem was, every cool looking armour in this game has some kind of organisation or important character behind it. Even the poster armour, the raging wolf set, isn’t our tarnished and neither is the armour on the cover art. And I didn’t really like mixing armour sets either because mixing armours from different factions isn’t what an npc would do. The closest thing I could get to this was the basic knight set as in the description it literally used to belong to a nameless knight. That or my personal favourite, the banished knight set completely unaltered as while yes you do see npc’s and enemies wear it, I don’t think there’s one that wear both the unaltered helmet and the unaltered chest piece together.
