 ==Overview==
 We are working to equip our NPC team with the best costume and kit we can. Inevitably this is a long process that takes time and of course, money. The ideal way to get the best possible results is to work with our crew - trying to kit out a character from scratch is particularly difficult, the best person to put a costume together is the person who will be wearing it. In particular, many of our crew are able to make beautiful costumes and others are happy to buy pieces of kit for a character they are going to play. We want to encourage all of these approaches and help support with costs wherever we can.

 ==Costume==
 * '''Available to anyone making a costume that will be worn by an NPC at our events'''
-If you are making costume that will be worn by an NPC at our events, either a regular character like a civil servant or egregore, a plot NPC or one of our orcs on the battlefield, then talk to us first. If the character is useful for our events then Profound Decisions will pay the costs for any materials used to make the costume. By paying for the materials we hope to encourage anyone making kit for NPCs in the game to use the best available materials to get the best finish possible.

-==Armour==
+==Masks==
-* '''Available to anyone attending an Empire event'''
+* '''Available to any member of the Skirmish Team at the start of each year'''
-We have several thousand square foot of leather on site. It is far from perfect for armour, it is thin in a dark colour but that does at least make it fairly easy to work. Any member of crew who wants to make costume or armour using the leather is welcome to use as much of it as they wish for their personal use while they are on site. We are going to look to organize kit making sessions for the start of the events for everyone involved with Empire, to try and help people create cool orc kit.
+For masks, Profound Decisions, have an arrangement with [http://mandalastudios.co.uk/ Mandala] to supply us the perfect masks for Empire at a special discount rate for crew. To get the price even lower, we encourage everyone to group together to make a bulk order. And then we will contribute £20 towards the cost of every mask ordered. That means you can get a simple mask as your personal mask very cheaply or you can tailor your mask to your own design, so you can have more expensive options like a full-face mask, or one with hair.
-==Skirmish Team Special Offer==
+The deal is only available at the start of the year when PD encourage everyone who is an experienced part of the skirmish team who wants to buy a mask to get together and organize a bulk order.

	For weapons, Profound Decisions, has an arrangement with Andy Rimmer of Offa Studios, to produce ideal orc weapons. Sketches of Andy's designs are shown below. All are available in metal (steel or bronze), antler, bone, stone or wood finishes. Obviously Andy can vary lengths on swords and axes, swords price from £40-£70, axes £50 to £70. He can do LRP safe standards as variants on pole arms and of course staves for mages/shaman.
