Female OC Knight of Ren

[Darth Justicar]

I love the patterning on that.

Yeah, it definitely seems like it goes with the texturing/striping seen on some Knight of Ren outfits.

What will your defenses be and what are your offensive capabilities and weapons?  What will you need to have adequate protection against enemy threats and the elements?  How do you plan to carry your weapons and make them easily accessible in combat and not a hindrance when out of combat?  Are you a Force using character or non Force user?  (It is unknown if all Knights are Force users and I actually lean towards their being a mix.). That will affect your choices and amount of gear.  Given the practicality of the Knights, I think considering your outfit from a combat perspective could be a useful exercise.

Those designs are very cool. I'm loving the different direction the Knights of Ren has taken in their outfits. The concept art looks so awesome. I can't wait to learn more about them in the next SW movie or books!

[Calculon]

I have now decided on this one:



But now I have to see what I want to carry underneath it... maybe a plain black turtleneck jersey; then I have to see what cape or hood I could use

Pure Bad-a**-ness! Excellent choice!

[Layana]

Thank you all! If someone has a suggestion for further clothing, I am glad to look into it!

Actually I didn't really thought about protection... I see lightsabers as either unblockable or blockable through other lightsabers and shots can be deflected with the force or the saber (yes, my character should be force user); but maybe I can make something up with my black leather armour; the whole armour-clothing thing seems more a thing of "telling" than "showing" if you get what I mean...

[Darth Justicar]

Okay...a Force-using Knight can probably afford to be more minimal in armament (not like that one guy that someone nicknamed "the Walking Armory"!), though she would in my opinion still consider things like protection against the elements, good boots, etc.

[Layana]

The good thing here is: I play LARP, so I have some things "practical" like good boots and a warm cloak etc.

[Layana]

Please provide me with some input

[Zren Tobas]

Very nice. Input? Cross guard saber and custom creepy mask made

[Rapine]

Hey looks great!  I like your corset thing.   

That "force" glow effect in your hand is cool.


Maybe not a mask, but perhaps a wicked looking tiara or something?

[Darth Justicar]

I don't know, none of the Knights of Ren show their faces normally.  (Though of course we get an exception for Kylo Ren at certain points.)

[Layana]

A mask was in my mind too, but not a full helmet, more like a mask for mouth/nose, showing the eyes? I will search for something. If I find a helmet/mask that is not too pricey I will try

Should I probably wear some utility belts or chains or...

[Darth Justicar]

Utility belts would make sense...I'm not sure I've seen the Knights of Ren with a lot of chains, but they definitely seem practical and carry a lot of equipment.  (Oh, and it might give you a place to put your phone, money, ID, etc. at a con.)

[ThreadJack]

I like this costume. Just add a mask, and all set.

[Kham-Ryn Kurios]

I have one critiscm and that is to leave your hood down.

The color is very unique, so if you're going for a Knight of Ren look, get a mask like TJ said and let your hair flow. 

[Gilbert]

maybe just a face wrap/scarf instead of a mask
